For indoor cats, choosing the right litter can be a real challenge. Although certain types of cat litter are suitable for most cats, other cats are more picky about their choice. Since cats have their own preferences, they may need to try new options from time to time.

So whether your cat suddenly hates the litter in the box or the litter itself is not good for your family, here are some of the best kitten litter to try.

Each litter is different, but most have some things in common. When choosing a new type of litter or when getting a new four-legged friend, here's what to look for:

Some cat litter is also sold specifically for households with multiple cats. There are also special cat litters for cats that cannot (or will not) use store-bought selections. In addition, some cats prefer garbage with a certain texture. For example, cats with particularly sensitive paws may do better with softer litter.

The type of trash you choose is also very different when it comes to keeping your home clean and dust-free.
