Do you have cats & kittens? I have a cat. Actually I have two cats, so that’s double the trouble. My cats are very demanding and have no problem letting their immediate needs be known. When they meow, bump their head into me, climb or jump up on me, there is no question what they are wanting from me. It’s almost always one of four things and these boys will not stop until they get their way.
What is my cat trying to tell me?
When my cats communicate with me it’s almost always one of four things they are clearly telling me. So, in case your kitties are not quite as boisterous or clear in communicating, her are the four things your cat most likely wants.
Four Needs Your Cat Consistently Communicates to You:
- Feed me
- Let me in/out
- Pet me
- Feed me
Now the last may seem redundant, but nine out of ten times, this is what my kitties are telling me. Cats will also communicate when they are in pain, but as this is not common with a healthy cat, I did not include it. So there you have it, you have been enlightened. You have Rascal and Rocco to thank.
There is one very important thing that I wish my cat’s would communicate
But they never tell me at all! I have to smell it to find out. That is when to change their litter box. I admit, I am horrible at remembering since all through the warm weather months, which is most of the year where I live, they choose to do their business outside. During the short time it’s cold and wet out, they do use a cat litter box in the house. I won’t think about it for a while and then I’ll be out one day and the moment I walk in the door, wow! My eyes start watering. It smells like a cat toilet in here!
I’ve tried many different litters and haven’t found a single one I can say that I love. I’ve found some that do cover the smell pretty good, but the dust when changing it affects my asthma, so I just hate doing it.

I was offered the opportunity to try Weruva®‘s new natural clay kitty litter with green tea, you heard me right, it’s a #CatTeaPotty over here!
I was extremely happy with it, and my cats seem to be as well. It is quick clumping for easy clean up, low dust, and no smell! It is clay and grain free litter, no corn or wheat which are common allergens for cats. The Hinoki wood and green tea naturally suppress mold and bacteria from growing for odor control. I haven’t changed the cat box in days and it’s been pouring rain, so I know both cats have been using it. I probably should go clean it, and I will, but I can still enjoy a good smelling house! And I know my cat’s and I are healthier with the natural clay litter.
Weruva is environmentally conscious, they create this sustainable cat litter by sourcing the wood materials by salvaging by products of companies such as piano builders! And a new tree is planted for every tree used. It is a family friendly brand. They began making pet products to provide the best for their own adopted kitties.
You can find Weruva cat litter and order online at Pet360.

Does your cat tell you something other than these main things? Tell me in the comments!

This is a great company. Thank you for sharing.
I can’t say I know much about kitty litter however our dog has an internal time clock and makes us VERY aware when it’s time for breakfast or dinner!!
Sounds like a really good litter! And that top photo – they are so darling!
Years ago, mom had a cat named Hollywood. When her litter box was too dirty for her, she would sit in front of mom and stare at her until she cleaned it. Mom always knew what that stare meant.
This litter sounds really good. I like their packaging too. I don’t have a cat myself but if I did I think I would get this brand!
I am going to check out this litter, my cat currently uses a pine litter that he seems to like quite well. I am curious to see how this one compares.
That sounds about right. He’ll also demand attention, lets me know he wants in under the covers, and tells me his toy is stuck.
Where was this brand of cat litter when I had two cats in the house? 😉 Sounds like a great cat litter and will definitely share with my friends who have kitties at home.
could you imagine if cats could talk! I think my old cat would have been a complainer 🙂
My neighbor’s cat meow meow meows all da time at our backdoor – she wants to come in and snuggle! Sometimes, when we ignore her, she comes right in my doggy door! In da summer momma will even keep a little cat litter box inside….just in case, can you believe it!! Well, I’ll tell momma about this litter!
Sounds like a good litter! Sorry, I have to go now, my cat is communicating with me to FEED HIM! 🙂
I completely understand the urgency!
We have double trouble twice in our house – 3 siblings + 1 other kitty and they sure aren’t shy when it comes to telling us what they want. I’m hearing good things about this cat litter.
Such a great post and lots of good information! 🙂
LOL! Mine complain all the time about being fed! Then after I feed them they complain again and want more! 😀 That sounds like a great cat litter! I’ve heard good things about that brand!
With dogs it’s more about the going out part 🙂 Though feeding is always good. Even better when done while being out.
I love that this litter is environmentally conscious! Looks like it eliminates odors really well.
Love & Biscuits,
Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them
I have 2 cats as well, and you are right, they are sure to let you know when they want something! The problem I experience with our current litter is the mess it makes when the cats leave the box – there’s litter everywhere! I’m constantly sweeping or vacuuming up after them. This litter sounds like it might be something I would like to try.
We have a covered litter box, which many cat’s don’t like, but luckily mine don’t mind it. Still, they broke the front flap and find a way to kick it across the floor. But it would be worse without the cover!
This is a great improvement for cat litter!
We’ve never liked litters made from wood, corn, wheat, newspaper, etc. so we’re not sure this litter is for us.
Neither have mine, they’ve been picky in the past, but this one seems just fine with them. So glad, since it smells nicer than any litter and I really like the low dust.
I’m going to look into this litter. On Oxygen so need low dust litter for my furbabies. Thanks for the review.
Brulee seems to like this litter. Truffle still prefers her other litter. Mom Paula loves the smell and odor control.
Of course they would like different types. Typical.
I agree with you completely on what cats are often communicating. Cinco and Manna say the same things to me! My cats (especially Cinco) really like the new Weruva Cat Litter. It sounds like it went over well with your crew too! My favorite thing is that I didn’t break out in hives after pouring it into the litter box (I’m allergic to dust). It is a real downer to be sick for a day or so after every time you touch the litter box. This litter doesn’t seem to cause that problem!
Ugh! I’m glad your kitties liked Weruva so you don’t have to deal with that. I just can’t breath the dust I can’t imagine it’s good for the cats’ health either, so I’m happy they like this litter, too.
I agree! I wish my cats would tell me when their litter box needs changing. Sometimes it doesn’t even smell that bad, but once I start changing it, I then notice the odor. Yuck! C’mon kitty – your nose is better than mine. Hold up your end of the bargain!
I might have to check out WeRuVa litter since I have become allergic to the high-dust litters.
I can put up with smell better than breathing really dusty litter. Not that I want to. Ick
This sounds like a great litter!
