where is biodegradable cat litter?

Recycling and saving our planet are all the rage now, so why isn't there biodegradable cat litter? It's an often used material for people with cats and would help a lot with landfill.

    Why do you need biodegradable cat litter. Most litter is made from some form of mineral. Also know as clay or dirt. What do you think things biodegrade into...dirt. So unless you like paying extra for a "green' label just use what ever the cat likes.

    I just recycle cats for litter. I go down to my local pet shelter and I get the cats that have been put to sleep. I then dry them out in the sun. Next I put them into a blender so the pieces resemble cat litter and there you go. The hair from the cats acts like a odor control and the rest absorb liquid great. You can even get a dog while you are there and turn it into a biodegradable cat box. I have been doing this for many years and it works wonders.

    You could try Swheat Scoop cat litter. It is made from wheat, which doesn't have to be mined, unlike traditional clay cat littlers. It is biodegradable, flushable and I find that it really reduced my cat box's odor. It's sold at most grocery stores and pet specialty stores. Good luck!
