Getting Started
Switching your cat(s) to a new type of litter can be a challenge, but minimizing odor and
promoting a clean home is worth a little extra effort! Before introducing your
cat(s) to the BREEZE Litter System, it is important to understand cat litter box behavior. So
let’s get down and dirty about the typical “bathroom” habits of your
cat(s).
Cat “Bathroom” Behavior
When it comes to using litter, cats develop strong preferences and habits. They become accustomed
to “going” in a specific location and in a specific litter. Asking your cat(s) to change these
habits can be challenging, but with patience and time, she can adjust successfully. Please keep the
information below in mind as you are following the transition steps provided with your new BREEZE Litter System.
What is this stuff?
When you first introduce your cat(s) to the BREEZE Litter System, she may investigate the BREEZE
Litter Pellets by sniffing, digging, and in some cases chewing on them. It’s important that you allow your
cat(s) to investigate without disturbing her. Don’t worry. BREEZE Litter Pellets are not harmful to your
cat(s). This activity should decline as your cat(s) adjusts to BREEZE™.
Note: As with any common non-food item your cat(s) might ingest (string, packaging materials, etc.), consult your veterinarian if your cat(s) consumes a significant amount.
Whoa, one thing at a time!
Cats need time to adjust to change. Be patient and make only one change at a time. As you prepare, follow the transition instructions provided with your new BREEZE Litter System. And
be sure to keep your cats’ feeding routine, daily schedule, and environment stable. The fewer changes your
cat(s) is facing the more likely she will adjust successfully to the BREEZE Litter System. Start off
by introducing your cat(s) to BREEZE Litter Pellets before introducing her to the entire system.
To go or not to go
Don’t be surprised if you notice a change in your cats’ “bathroom” behavior when you introduce the BREEZE
Litter System and/or Litter Pellets. Your cat(s) may not use the BREEZE Litter System right away, and
she may pee or poop more or less often as she adjusts to the new Litter System. Also, your cat(s) is more
likely to pee in the BREEZE Litter Pellets before pooping in them. As your cat(s) becomes more accustomed
to the BREEZE Litter Pellets, she will be more likely to use the BREEZE Litter System every time she
goes.
Every cat is different!
There is no such thing as a “normal” amount of time for your cat(s) to adjust to a new type of litter. Some cats
will transition right away while others may take several weeks or longer. If you have any questions at all, just

Inappropriate Cat “Bathroom” Behavior
Use these tips to help identify and address inappropriate cat “bathroom” behavior.
If your cat(s) does not consistently use her litter box when she has to “go”, it could be the result of a medical condition. Before introducing BREEZE™ to your cat(s), consult your veterinarian and/or call us toll free at 1-877-982-HELP (4357) Monday thru Friday 7a.m. to 7p.m. CST, and a Pet Advisor can help.
If your cat(s) starts exhibiting inappropriate “bathroom” behavior around the time that you introduce a new litter box or litter material, your cat(s) may need more time to adjust. Call us toll free at 1-877-982-HELP (4357) Monday thru Friday 7a.m. to 7p.m. CST, and a Pet Advisor can help develop a more personalized transition plan for you and your cat(s).
Your cat(s) may “go” outside of the litter box for any the following reasons:
Location, location, location
The litter box may be in a high-traffic or noisy spot. Something traumatic or unsettling may have happened to your
cat(s) while in the litter box and she may be afraid to go back. This is why it’s so important to make sure you
place your BREEZE Litter System right next to the old litter box, in exactly the same place your cat(s) is used to
going. See our Step-by-Step Transition Instructions and follow ALL steps to ensure success.
Box size/style
Some cats don’t like high-sided or hooded litter boxes. These litter boxes may be difficult for cats with joint or
other mobility problems to enter. The BREEZE Litter System is adaptable to use without the walls. See our Step-by-Step Transition Instructions and follow ALL steps to ensure success.
If you experience any of these challenges while you are following ALL of the transition steps provided with your new BREEZE Litter System, or if you have any questions, do not hesitate to call us toll free at 1-877-982-HELP (4357) Monday thru Friday 7a.m. to 7p.m. CST.
