A peat/soil based or sawdust based pellet is less likely to stick to his paws, you can also try using only a bare scattering of litter over newspaper but this would then need emptying at least twice daily

I don't recommend to use this in case the wood has some sort of chemical treatment. Remember that Sadie will walk on the wood and then lick her feet later. It's safest to stick to products made for pets so that you know there are no hidden chemicals that could be toxic. Also, some cats do not like any litter other than normal, clay based litter. I recommend to offer two boxes, one with clay based litter and the other with the new litter and see which one she prefers. Otherwise she may start eliminating outside of the litter box. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.

I would make sure you are feeding Floof a well balanced diet of cat food. If he is on this already then I would recommend trying the Breeze litter box. I would also not supplement any Iron unless you have had blood work performed that says Floof is anemic. You can get it here: https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/tidy-cats-breeze-litter-box-system This system uses pellets instead of litter. Thank you for using Boop by Petco.

It may take him some time to become acclimated to the new litter. You can try adding a litterbox attractant to get him back into the box. An example of one such product can be found by clicking the link below. https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/precious-cat-dr-elseys-ultra-litter-attractant

You can use plain vinegar and water in a 50/50 dilution to clean most hard surfaces. Commercial products that are safe to use include Green Works wipes, the Seventh Generation line and the Mrs. Meyer's line of "eco-cleaners".
