What is the difference between Catsan Hygiene and Catsan Wood Comfort?

Hygiene is a mineral litter built around odour control and absorbency, while Wood Comfort is a wood-based alternative marketed as softer underfoot. Both are non-clumping lines, changed as a full tray rather than scooped clump by clump the way a clumping litter is.

Is Catsan litter clumping or non-clumping?

Catsan makes both. Its clumping litters form solid clumps that lift out with waste, while its non-clumping lines are managed by changing the whole tray on a schedule rather than scooping individual clumps out as they form.

How often should I change cat litter?

This depends on the litter type, the number of cats using the tray and how often you scoop it, so there is no single answer that fits every household. As a general habit, scoop clumping litter daily and change the tray fully on a regular schedule rather than waiting until it smells.

Does Giddy Pets stock the whole Catsan range?

No, we stock a selection from the range rather than every bag size and variant Catsan makes. What is shown in the grid above is what we currently have available to order, and that can change as stock does week to week.

Catsan cat litter

Catsan is one of the most recognised cat litter names on UK shelves, built around hygiene and odour control rather than being a single product. We stock a selection from the range, and it is usually the first litter name a customer asks for by brand rather than by type or ingredient.

Who Catsan are

Catsan has been a fixture of the UK cat litter market for a long time, and its name is often used almost generically the way some brands become shorthand for the whole product category. The range covers both clumping and non-clumping mineral litters, positioned around controlling odour and keeping the tray hygienic between changes.

It is not a natural or plant-based litter brand in the way some newer entrants are — it is a mineral litter built for absorbency and odour control, which is what most owners are actually shopping for when they ask for it by name at the counter.

What we stock, and how the ranges differ

Our range includes Catsan's clumping and non-clumping litters, including the Hygiene and Wood Comfort lines. Clumping litter forms solid clumps around waste that lift out with a scoop, while non-clumping litter is changed as a full tray rather than spot-cleaned, so the right choice depends on how you prefer to manage the tray day to day.

We stock a selection from the wider range rather than every bag size and variant Catsan makes, and what is shown above reflects what is currently available to order rather than the full catalogue Catsan produces.

Buying it from us

Litter is heavy and bulky, and it is one of the things customers most often ask us to add to a bigger order rather than carry home separately. We stock it in the same bags we buy through the trade, at the sizes that actually move off the shelf.

If you are switching a cat onto a new litter, do it gradually by mixing it into the existing tray rather than swapping overnight — cats can be particular about litter texture, and a sudden change is a common reason a cat starts avoiding the tray.
