How Long Does Tofu Cat Litter Last?A UK Cat Owner's Guide.
How long a bag of tofu cat litter lasts per cat, and the factors that make it last longer or shorter in your home.
A 5kg box of Bestami tofu cat litter (two 2.5kg bags) typically lasts a single cat around four to six weeks with daily scooping and a 5–7 cm fill — though multi-cat households will go through it faster.
What affects how long it lasts
- Number of cats: Litter use scales roughly with the number of cats sharing (or each having) a tray.
- Scooping habits: Daily scooping of solid waste and clumps extends the life of the litter in the tray, since you're only removing what's been used rather than the whole tray.
- Litter depth: 5–7 cm is enough for clumps to form cleanly. Filling deeper than that mostly means more litter goes out with each full change.
- Tray size and number of trays: More trays means the same amount of litter is spread further, which can change your usage pattern.
A simple way to estimate your own usage
Track how many bags you use over two or three months for your household, then use that as your baseline going forward — it's more accurate for your specific setup than any single average.
Bestami's honest view
We'd rather give you a realistic range than an exact number that ignores how differently every household runs its litter tray. If you're finding a bag disappears much faster than this range, it's worth checking your fill depth — 5–7 cm is plenty, and overfilling is the most common reason.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does tofu litter last longer than clay litter?
Tofu litter is typically used at a shallower depth than clay, so bag-for-bag comparisons can be misleading — compare based on cost and usage over a full month rather than per bag.
Should I buy in bulk to save money?
If tofu litter works well for your household, buying in bulk can reduce cost per use — just check our storage guide first, so it stays fresh until you need it.
