    Great for cat litter

    I use this for my cat’s litter box. Much cheaper than the same wood pellets at the pet stores. It turns into sawdust so is easily scooped. It keeps odours down much better than gravel litter.

    Q: How long does one bag last for kitty litter? Thanks in advance!

    4 years ago
    6 Answers
    • A: Depends if you are sifting out the used litter (sawdust) or mixing it in. Sifting and saving pellets, it lasted approx. 6 months plus. If mixing sawdust in, and throwing the whole lot out occasionally, I'd figure on no more than 6 months.

    • A: I don’t know exactly what this litter box is, but these pellets best with a sifting litter box. If your litter box is a sifting litter box than yes the pellets will work.

    Q: Are these pellets kiln dried? I'd like to buy them for use as cat litter, but I see that they use pine, and I know that pine pellets are only safe for cats if they're kiln dried.

    5 years ago

    • A: Again, no they are not. Kiln drying doesn use sufficient heat to remove phenols. If you smell pine, it has phenols and therefore you are harming your cat. So if they breath in dust while digging, or they like saw dust off their paws after doing business and grooming, they are consuming the phenols. Google danger and long term effects of phenol on cats.

    • A: When they refer to “not safe for animal or human consumption” they are referencing not to eat the product. It is completely safe to use for animals.

    Q: How does it smell? I'm planning on using it as cat litter. But I previously used softwood pellets from R0na which smelled really bad and offensive. I don't want to make the same mistake with this one Does it smell like pine/spruce?

    • A: The smell is not overwhelming, and has a minor hint of pine. I have used the CanWick hardwood ones previously, and they smell disgusting.

    Q: The brand, bag and pellet has changed from what it used to be, even though the photo of the old one is still in the pictures scrolling through. What happened to the previous one?

    • A: We've carried a different bag depending on what part of Canada you're in. The Granules LG was for the Eastern part of Canada, and La Crete in the West. Unfortunately Granules LG had difficulty supplying us this winter and so we had to fall back on La Crete for most of this winter.

    • A: Our raw materials are dried to a humidity degree of +/-10% Then through the process in the pelleter the heat brings that humidity level down to +/- 5-7% humidity.

    Q: I went to Canadian Tire to get a 40 pound bag of Surefire wood pellets but they only had the BioPower bags even though it says online that there were 43 bags in stock.  Are the soft wood Bio Power pellets kiln dried? It doesn't say on the bag.
