Litter for cats and small animals as well as process for its preparation

摘要

Litter for cats and small animals often consists of a mixture from dried material of plant origin and an adjuvant that promotes agglomeration when the mixture is exposed to moisture. The invention relates to a novel litter that is characterized in that the dried material of plant origin is present in a particle size range in which the diameters of 80% of the particles, based on the mass, range from more than 0 mum to less than 1000 mum. The mass sum distribution of the particle size distribution, at least in the range between 50 mum and 1000 mum, is larger than an integrated statistical Gaussian distribution at which the Gaussian distribution is a normal Gaussian distribution with an average value of 100 mum and a standard deviation of 800 mum and at which the particle size distribution deviates by more than 10% from this statistic Gaussian distribution.
