Checklist for Freshness
When a cat joins your family, you’ll want to have the following items ready for their daily personal care needs:
- Plastic Litter Box
- Litter Box Liners (correct size for your litter box)
- fresh4life Clumping Cat Litter formula for their life stage (or lifestyle) — be it Training, Multi-Cat, Adult or
Senior formula. These are all available in an easy-to-carry jug. Multi-Cat and Adult formulas also come in a large box size with built-in spout
and carrying handles for your convenience.
- 2-4 Litter Mats (for each open side of the litter box)
- Plastic or Metal Shovel or Scoop (with slots)
- Whisk Broom & Dust Pan (to keep area near litter box clean)

Introducing fresh4life Litter
- If you decide to use a litter box liner, spread it over the litter box so that it overhangs the rim on all sides. Press the center of the
liner down to the bottom of the box and smooth outward.
- Pour 3-4 inches of the fresh4life Clumping Cat Litter formula for your cat into the litter box.
- Repeat previous steps to set up additional litter boxes, if you have multiple cats or a senior cat, who requires extra litter accessibility.
- Place litter mats under the edges of the sides of the litter box which are not against a wall, to help your cat remove excess litter
from between his or her paws and further reduce tracking in your home.
- Using your shovel, scoop and discard solid waste daily.
- Top-up litter, as required, to keep it at 3-4 inches in depth.
- Completely change litter on a regular basis. (Ideally this will be weekly but frequency may vary depending on the number of cats and
litter boxes you have.)
- When changing litter, replace the liner or thoroughly wash the box with soap and hot water. Avoid using concentrated, strong smelling
disinfectants, vinegar, bleach or pine cleaners, which may repel cats.

Transitioning to fresh4life Clumping Cat Litter
Personal cleanliness is a key priority for your cat. You can show how much you care by using fresh4life litter to give your
cat the right litter for each stage of his or her life.
To Transition Your Cat to fresh4life Litter:
- Introduce fresh4life litter to your cat gradually for an easy transition.
- Pour 1 inch of fresh4life litter into a clean litter box and put 2 inches of your previous brand on top.
- At your next litter change, increase fresh4life litter to 2/3 the box’s contents.
- Finally, enjoy using only fresh4life litter – for life.
Cautions:
- Pregnant women particularly, as well as people with suppressed immune systems, should avoid contact with soiled litter or feces.
- Do not flush litter down the toilet.

Cleaning Up Accidents:
- Clean up accidents on hard surfaces, such as linoleum, hardwood or cement, with a paper towel or soapy mop, rinse with warm water and wipe
down with vinegar.
- Clean up accidents on a carpet by wiping them up with a paper towel and then cleaning the soiled areas on the carpet with a specialized enzyme
cleaner for use on pet urine and feces. If a specialized cleaner is not available, use dish detergent mixed with water. Finish by soaking the
areas with club soda and blotting it up.
- Never use ammonia-based cleaners, as the ammonia scent actually attracts cats back to the accident site.
