How Does King Cat Litter Work? What is Zeolite? (Clinoptilolite) How-To About Us Contact

Basic Principles:


King Cat Litter consists of a unique mineral called "clinoptilolite " which is of volcanic origin. King Cat Litter holds moisture and odors naturally and consistently. The material is a pale green sand-sized granular product.

King Cat Litter has multiple methods of holding fluids and odors including absorption and "adsorption".
  1. The first is by absorption. Example: It will absorb up to 60 % of its weight in water or other liquids. Water, and other liquids that are held in this position are loosely held and are water-soluble. This is the first big advantage; King Cat Litter hold moisture immediately and hold it in place by surface tension.
  2. The second method is by "adsorption" or cation exchange (measured as cation exchange capacity or "CEC").
    King Cat Litter holds cations such as ammonium (NH4+), odor causing particles within the mineral lattice where it is not water-soluble. This is the second big advantage. King Cat Litter will hold ammonium in the lattice of the zeolite before it breaks down into ammonia (NH3) and stinks up the house.
