5 Best Non-Tracking Cat Litter You will Absolutely Love – 2018

Cat litter boxes like the Modkat Flip Litter Box with Scoop and Reusable Liner are fitted with a built-in liner. This liner helps your cat remove any cat litter particles that may have clung to its paws and fur, so they don't bring along any cat litter around your house.

Alternatively, you can also make your own non-tracking cat litter box. Watch the DIY video below to learn how you can build a non-tracking cat litter box.

Cat litter particles can quickly make their way underneath your cat's nails. That said, make sure that you periodically trim them. Getting your cat a scratching pole will also be very helpful in keeping your cat's nails short.

If your cat’s got long hair, make sure that you also give your cat a haircut regularly, especially around his or her leg and paw areas. Doing this will help prevent the granules from your cat’s litter to get caught between the hair around your cat’s toes.

Make sure that you also trim the hair on your cat’s hind legs and butt area since these are areas that are closest to the litter granules while your cat is doing his or her business. Trimming your cat's fur also ensure that these won't stick to the wet clumps that form.

Let’s face it: there will always be a bit of cat litter that will make its way outside the cat litter as your cat digs and kicks around the litter box. That said, make sure that you sweep or vacuum the surrounding area immediately after your cat leaves his or her litter box.

I found this to be one of the most effective ways of stopping my cats from tracking cat litter throughout my home. It also saves me a great deal of time vacuuming and sweeping the area around my cats’ litter boxes.

Having a mat or carpet underneath your cat's litter box will help catch any litter granules that may fall out of your cat's litter box, especially if your cat's fond of a little kicking frenzy now and then like mine.

I recommend getting one that’s at least twice the size of your cat’s litter box so that it can cover the immediate area where your cat will be walking after getting out from the litter box. That way, any granules left on your cat’s paws will get trapped onto the carpet.

Tracking mats are made from different materials. The one I use for my cats is the Premium Cat Litter Mat from Easyology . The deep grooves between the plastic woven loops do a great job getting rid of any litter granules that get caught in my cats’ fur and paws.

At the same time, the loops are sturdy enough to withstand your cat scratching on it after going to the bathroom.

Just like their human owners, cats prefer relieving themselves in a fresh litter box. Cats tend to kick more aggressively the litter granules when their box is filthy, causing the litter granules to make its way outside the litter box.

Ideally, you should clean your cat's litter box every day and replace the cat litter with a fresh batch every week. Having a dirty cat litter box not only increases the chances of litter tracking but can also cause your cat to develop all sorts of urinary tract disease.

Often, the root of your litter tracking problem lies not in your cat’s behavior, but on the cat litter you use. Many cat litter sold today are made of tiny granules to give your cat a soft and comfortable place to relieve himself or herself.

The downside of these kinds of cat litter is that because they're lightweight, they quickly make their way to other parts of your house. Not only does this make your home messy, but it can also cause several health issues for you and your family.

That said, the best way to stop your cat from tracking cat litter around your house is to switch to a non-tracking cat litter. Non-tracking cat litter is made of more substantial granules or pellets, which are less likely to get caught underneath your cat's nails and paws.

Non-tracking cat litter is made from clay, silica gel, or even recycled newspaper pellets. Below is a list of the five best non-tracking cat litter that I've tested that you can try using for your cat.

While each of these non-tracking cat litter has its advantages and disadvantages, the Arm & Hammer Multi-Cat Clump & Seal Clumping Litter is, for me, the best of the best.

For starters, I own adult cats. Even they each have their separate litter box, and there are days when they'll only use one litter box. The Arm & Hammer Multi-Cat Clump & Seal Clumping Litter is designed to handle waste from multiple cats, which is perfect for me.

Another reason why the Arm & Hammer Multi-Cat Clump & Seal Clumping Litter is my top pick among the best non-tracking cat litter is that I've always used clay-based cat litter. Since it's also made of clay, I didn't have any problem getting my cats to use this.

There’s a very faint scent you can smell from the Arm & Hammer Multi-Cat Clump & Seal Clumping Litter. However, it didn't bother my cats one bit. I'm guessing that it's because I'm also using Arm & Hammer's detergent for our clothes, so the scent's familiar to them.

I did notice that the clumps left behind are quite hard. The clumps left behind also make the cat litter box heavy, but not to the point that it’s difficult to bring it outside to clean.

Also, I noticed you need to do a bit of scraping when getting rid of the clumps that stick to the sides and bottom of the box. But this only happens to me when I put off cleaning my cats’ litter boxes for days. Otherwise, I don’t have any problems removing them.
