Healthy Pet P-Pod Clumping Cat Litter-- Anyone Know If It"s gluten-free?


The Fluffy Assassin

Fresh Step is messing with my breathing (and the kitty's), so I've been trying to find a hypoallergenic kitty litter, preferably one that won't kill me. Tried World's Best (corn) but the Monkey just kept trying to eat it. Healthy Pet is actually starting to work out, but as they say it's all from vegetable sources (but won't say which) I'm more than a little nervous. They have yet to answer my email. Any insight?

No reply yet, but further Internet searches indicate that the company makes all their products from reclaimed wood fibers. So most likely it's gluten-free (knock on wood).

We have been using the silica cat litter (Mimi which is available only at w@lma@rt apparently) and really prefer it to any of the clay ones because of the dust issue. Well, also the litter box is in our only bathroom and the clumping litter that is tracked out of the box turns to cement if it gets wet - which happens when anyone takes a shower.

I am not familiar with that litter. I currently use the stuff that Costco sells in the green jug. It's the clumping kind. Maui made a huge mess with the silica kind. The first one I tried was in little balls. Kind to the feet but it rolled all over the place when she kicked it. Then I tried the kind that was very sharp. Must have killed her little feet! I know it killed mine. She kicked that all over too and it was pretty smelly.

      I would like to say you saved me. I’ve been so sick the last few years, celiac since 1997. And reading your post about the other glutens/grains that can be sensitive to celiacs, is the only thing that has ever helped me. Since going off a carbohydrates/grains, even gluten-free ones, My chronic pain is  85% better. I’m actually losing weight which, that’s a long story but was impossible. I definitely am like you. Thank you so very much for posting. For some of celiacs I do believe this is the magic key.

      I 100% believe if you were sticking gluten items, especially flour, and breathed it in you could be glutened. I’m a celiac for almost 30 years. For the first ten years as a celiac I’d help my polish family make pierogis at Christmas time. I would only cook them at the stove and I didn’t touch anything with my hands using spoons. But the flour is in the air. And I’d get violently ill for 1-2 weeks after the last few years I did it. Wearing a back is a great suggestion and washing your clothes and showering when you get home. Good luck. And I’m so sorry your parents are emotionally supporting you.

      Have you had your thyroid checked? I was diagnosed at 24 with celiac. Lost my period permanently at 32. Found out six months after I lost my period that I had 1 ovary with 1 follicle. I had a child already but wanted more. Ended up having two more children with one ovary and one follicle. But my doctors theories are if I would have gotten my thyroid checked sooner and fixed through medication, maybe things would look different. Who knows. I only share my experience so you question your doctors and advocate. Always see an endocrinologist for thyroid care fyi. Actually always see the specific Dr for your specific ailments. I’d also consider seeing a gynecologist that specializes in...

      This. Scott said it beautifully. Document and start a trial gluten-free diet. I can also recommend an inflammation dietitian I saw last summer if interested. She’s the only one who helped me on a path to healing through an elimination diet. Which is tricky with your little one. But I completely trust her, she’s very expensive though. I figured out I’m sensitive to so many things and follow a gluten-free diet religiously. Just had an upper and lower endoscopy/colonoscopy and zero signs of celiac disease so they said. I’m a celiac since 1997. But my 33 yr old daughter is very gluten intolerant since 20 yrs old.

      I so appreciate you talking about this. Honestly I’m so sick the most part of the last 15 years, I’m going to cross reference your list with my own. Celiac since 24 yrs old diagnosed in 1997. I just saw a specific celiac GI specialist at the celiac disease center in Chicago and when I told her all the food reactions I was having she said she believed me but there was no clinical evidence to support my reactions(I felt so unseen, she recommended I see a gut psychologist, what the heck). I react with severe body aches to bloating and dizziness to exhaustion:  most lectins except berries and low lectin veg, no eggs, no nightshade veg, no dairy, all carbohydrates including no gluten-free...
