Many friends like to keep cats, but they don’t know much about some cat care knowledge. Many netizens will ask how to deal with cat shit more conveniently and how to deal with cat shit better. Let me take you to see this question below. Can cat shit be flushed directly into the toilet!

Cat poop cannot be flushed directly into the toilet. Cats are almost only active at home, so they will not go out to excrete like dogs. Then there are only two possibilities for treating cat poop. One is to flush it in the toilet, and the other is to throw it directly into the trash can. However, compared with the latter, more people will choose to flush the cat's poop into the toilet, because the smell will disappear and will not emit a stench because it is in the trash can.

However, because cats take different nutrients from humans, and the poop is often mixed with cat hair, cat poop will be harder than human poop and it is difficult to dissolve in water. If the shoveler flushes the cat poop into the toilet over time, it is likely to cause the water pipe to be blocked, which will cause the toilet at home to be blocked. In serious cases, the water pipe may explode.

Although there are some cat litters on the market that can be dissolved and flushed the toilet directly, according to the master, there are cases where there are too many cat litters. If they are too serious, the repair cost is not cheap. It is still recommended that cat shovelers should not flush their cat's excrement too much for convenience. If possible, throw the cat's poop in the trash can, sort it and then dispose of it. Although the cat's excrement is very smelly, for the sake of the toilet at home, it is actually not recommended that the owner throw the cat's poop into the toilet. So all the poop owners must remember that cat poop will cause the toilet to be blocked and they cannot do this frequently.

Also, be sure to keep your cat warm and don’t make it sick. Remember to prepare some favorite food for him!
