Cat litter
If you have a little extra money to spend I recommend pretty litter, not only is it good for them but it can help identify health issues. The litter will change colour if it detects a problem and the colour chart will tell you what each colour means.
PrettyLitter
Tidy cats is my favorite affordable litter, there are a variety of options for scents and performance. I like the 24/7 and 4 in 1 strength options.
