Title: New Cat Litter!!!!!!
Post by: Lottie (Team Svartalfheim's) on April 15, 2010, 13:08:16 PM
Looks interesting, made from hemp, compostable and with a very nice price tag  :wow:

I don't know if hemp clumps or not though as my only experience of hemp and wee is hemp nappies so a bit different although when you line dry hemp nappies they turn rock solid so I guess this litter might clump very hard  :evillaugh:

Industrial hemp comes from the plant Cannabis Sativa Sativa and marijuana comes from the plant Cannabis Sativa Indicta. The drug marijuana is the dried flowers of the plant whereas the industrial hemp plants are not cultivated to grow these buds.
