Hi
Sorry if this has covered before. I used to use Tesco low dust cat litter as soil but I believe this has been discontinued. Has anybody used Tomas (MARS pet care) cat litter. It seems to ver similar but can't find any details online.
Many thanks.

Cat litter is for cat shit. Bonsai deserve better than that. It is also not much cheaper if that is why you use it.

Sanicat pink is the only other option UK I think. Pets at home. Bigger particle size too

Sorry about that, but it does annoy me. Anyway it is not a good substitute for Akadama. Nothing is

No worries. I do disagree though. I have successfully used Tesco cat litter for bonsai for a few years now and believe me I wouldn't use it if I thought it depremental to the health of my trees.

I disagree.

Just visit this forum and look at 90% of the posts and wonder if these plants need akadama.

Apart from that, my plants are doing fine.
