Better Cat Food Choices

 * 1) Look at the ingredients. Make sure it's safe. If you buy the bags of food, make sure you check the ingredients for anything you might not want to buy. Some ingredients can harm a cat and the food choices it makes. Buying foods with wheat gluten, artificial flavor, artificial colors and more. Meat should be one of the first ingredients.
 * 2) Search for the right container. The container the food is in matters. People generally don't think about this when choosing better cat food. Canned cat food is a bad decision for a good reason. The pouches are non-recyclable but require less energy and resources to make.

Eco-friendly Kitty Litter

 * 1)  Look at the ingredients again. This will slip the minds of cat litter buyers, the ingredients. The silica dust is harmful for humans and felines both. Silica dust causes respitory issues and can't be cured yet. The litter can often contain clay that was strip mined. That's why the news is the best option- old newspapers[[Image:Screenshot 2015 08 03 at 12.24.34 PM.png|center|401px|thumb|"Please use some better litter!"]]
