Keep contents and packaging out of reach of children and pets. Seek medical help in case of accidental ingestion.

Why is our litter made from wood?
Our cat litter is made from reclaimed wood which is naturally lightweight, naturally absorbent, naturally odor-controlling, biodegradable and sustainable. Over the years, cat litter has been made from ashes, sand, newspaper and even food-grade materials. None of these materials have the range of features that natural wood offers.
What types of wood are used in our natural cat litter?
Our litter is a blend of spruce, fir and pine. Our fiber suppliers comply with policies of the Forest Stewardship Council, Sustainable Forestry Imitative or the Forestry Preservation and Forestry Promotion Act.
How does our natural cat litter absorb so well?
Tree fiber has a natural capillary system within it that absorbs moisture and holds it within the fiber wall, thanks to Mother Nature. Our unique processing methods build on that natural ability.
Why is absorption so important in our natural cat litter?
Wood cat litter is naturally super absorbent and fast absorption in natural litter ensures your cat isn't standing in urine while relieving himself. It also helps to pull the urine down into the bottom of the tray. Rather than pool at the top. High absorption rates ensure that minimal litter is being wetted, so you use less, and scoop less so you save money. It also makes the cat box easier to clean and less frequently is needed due to the limited moisture and doesn't allow the litter to cake to the bottom. And absorption rates help with odor control by quickly absorbing the mess and encapsulating and trapping the odor inside. Ta da!
How does it fight odors?
The natural capillary structure of wood helps protect trees in their natural environment. That same structure works to repress odors in our cat litters. Because of wood’s incredible natural absorbency, urine doesn’t collect at the bottom of the litter tray, creating all kinds of unpleasant odors and unhygienic conditions.
Why is clumping important for cat litter?
Clumping cat litters immediately react with moisture. Cat urine is encapsulated and begins to harden on contact, trapping the liquid and the odor within. The urine does not soak to the bottom of the box and sit there stinking up the room and attaching to the bottom of the box. The clump is easily removed, you waste less litter, don't have to scrape the bottom of the box and your cat stays clean and dry. The clumping litter also attaches to the moisture in feces. Though it does not clump as solid as a urine clump, it is still incredibly beneficial.
Why doesn't everyone use CLUMPING litters then?
Some people don’t know the benefits. Some prefer non-clumping litters because they use automatic litter boxes, or the type that have screens or use rakes to clean the box and some are concerned about the ingredients used to clump. The clumping ingredients used in ours are those typically found in in the production of common household products such as tissue paper.
What makes the clumping litters clump?
We add a proprietary recipe of ingredients derived from natural materials that are listed by the FDA as GRAS (generally accepted as safe) human-grade ingredients. We achieve superior performance through the unique selection and application of these ingredients.
Can I compost used natural cat litter?
The kitty litter itself is completely biodegradable. However, we do not recommend putting used litter feces clumps in your compost bin. If you choose to compost, do not use in vegetable gardens, or be sure to let it set for six months so as to follow the USDA protocol in order to make the compost safe for use in vegetable gardens.
Can you or can't you flush the natural cat litter?
Yes, our natural wood kitty litters are flushable and have been certified by SGS in accordance with ANSI standards (ASME A112.19.6. (JRS)) However, local limitations should be considered and flushing is not recommended if on a septic system. As well, the state of California has a referendum against flushing cat litter for protection of the sea lion population, since cat feces can harm sea lions.
What scoop is best to use with the larger pellet litters?
There are several scoops with large slots specially designed for use with pellets available at retail. We are hoping to have our own specially designed okocat scoop available soon!
Are any animals used in the testing of your products?
We do not use animals in the testing of any of our products. All our products do go through rigorous quality assurance procedures and third party laboratory testing and adhere to established safety guidelines mandated by regulatory and animal welfare agencies. Our products are made from substances that have a long history of safety for both the humans and animals, and are found in everyday products from both the food and cosmetics industries.
Are there harmful chemicals used in the processing of your cat litter?
No. Any of the additives in our products are those typically found in the production of common household products such as tissue paper and/or products for human consumption.
Why is there a PROP 65 Warning on the packaging of your cat litters?
We realize the requirement posed (only) by the state of California sounds scary. It needn’t be. The warning pertains to “wood dust.” Along with beach sand, wood dust was added to a list of more than 900 substances ruled harmful when overexposure occurs in the workplace, or even by a consumer. According to the law, all wood- and silica-based cat litters should state the Prop 65 warning to be compliant, though many do not.There are several innocuous substances on the California list that with typical use, do not risk human or pet health (e.g. traditional clay cat litters are also required to carry the warning for silica or “sand,”). However, it’s our responsibility to label our products as required by law. Being a small company and to keep retail costs down, we chose to print only one packaging version, rather than incurring the cost of a “California only “ version.

I'm sticking with it!
By Kimmy on Feb 4, 2021
Feline Pine: At first, I really liked this litter. I mean, it is better than clump and seal. I actually have a jug of clump and seal to use whenever we run out of pine litter and I absolutely hate it. The problem with this litter is that my babies made such a big mess. Frisco: I didn't care for this litter so much. I just wanted to try something new but it mostly powder, not enough pellets. Simply Pine: I love this litter so far. I have been depressed lately so I haven't scooped the litter box in a few days. There was no odor, and there was no mess. I think the litter was too heavy to track all over the place. The pellets were large and they do what they're supposed to do. I'm going to Feline Pine: At first, I really liked this litter. I mean, it is better than clump and seal.

Formula Changed and Not For The Better
By NotPickyReally on Dec 11, 2020
Although pine pellets come with a learning curve, I loved Simply Pine. The pine did a wonderful job of absorbing all odors and the pellets were long enough and uniformly sized enough to last a long time. Then the pellet size and consistency changed, and ALL the good was gone. I tried the other popular brand, but their pellet size is too small, too, although more uniform. So, we're back to a more traditional litter, which admittedly is easier on tender paws.

product changed
By Wheeler on Dec 1, 2020
This product has changed since the last time I bought it and now my cat won't use the box it's in. The previous version was sort of gold color, new version is brown. Not sure what else has changed, but clearly something did. Before the change I would have given it 5 stars, becuase it's much less messy than other litters.

Best thing $$ can buy
By Kathy on Nov 9, 2020
I decided to try a pine litter versus clumping clay litter and I love it. I will never go back to dusty tracking clay litter. The urine gets absorbed into the pine nuggets and loses its smell, While the feces just sits on top and I scoop it away and flush it down the toilet. No messy spray of litter outside the litter Box and no tracking across the floors. And best of all absolutely no odor I highly recommend using the pine litter.... And my cat loves it too !

Experiment
By AnnieSeattle on Jan 12, 2021
I am experimenting with other brands of pine litter because Feline Pine seems to have changed their formula lately. So far Simply Pine seems a bit better, more piney scent, not breaking down too fast.

where do I begin
By bunnyowner01 on Oct 8, 2020
My rabbit is a drama queen so maybe it’s just her? But I’ve noticed over the past 4 months of using this brand that the pellets always smell different sometimes it’s the normal pine smell others it’s almost chemical and overall gross. Luckily I buy two bags at a time to tide me over til I need more so I’ll just try the other bag. (Normally the second bag is fine) maybe they just have a few weird batches being produced due to the pine they are using but I’ve noticed that with certain bags of this stuff she won’t even eat the hay that was in the same litter box with it and then I have to put another 20lb bag to sit until I find someone who will use it. Overall it’s not always bad she normally likes My rabbit is a drama queen so maybe it’s just her?

Simply Pine works well
By Crafty716 on Oct 19, 2020
I tried a lot of different brands of natural cat litters. No matter which clay litters were too much dusty around. So I started trying all the natural litters that had no clay. This (Simply Pine) was the litter the adoption Shelter used where I got 2 of my young cats, my older cat didn’t like it so much. So for him I use Worlds Best cat litter, corn and plant based material. He seems to like. I feel using both litters helps to keep the air that we breathe cleaner and the smell of the boxes down to a minimum.
