Tofu Litter Review: Is it Really Flushable in Bangladeshi Toilets?
Tofu litter has revolutionized pet care in Dhaka. It smells great, it’s dust-free, and the packaging says "100% Flushable."
For apartment owners on the 5th floor who hate carrying heavy trash bags downstairs, this sounds like a dream. But a common fear remains: Will this block my toilet?
Bangladeshi plumbing pipes are often narrower than those in Western countries. So, is flushable cat litter truly safe here?
The Science: How Tofu Litter Dissolves
Unlike clay (which turns into cement) or crystal (which never dissolves), Tofu litter is made of soy fiber. When it touches large amounts of water, it breaks down into a soft mush, similar to toilet paper.
The Test: Can You Flush It?
Yes, BUT you must follow the rules.
We have tested this in standard Dhaka apartments. It works perfectly if you follow the "Single Clump Rule."
How to Flush Safely:
-
Scoop ONE clump at a time. Do not empty the whole tray into the commode.
-
Drop it in and WAIT. Let the clump sit in the water for 30 seconds. You will see it start to dissolve and break apart.
-
Flush.
-
Repeat.
When NOT to Flush
-
Hard Stool: If the poop is very hard and dry, it’s safer to trash it, though the litter attached to it is fine.
-
Old Pipes: If you live in a very old building with a history of drainage issues, use the trash bin to be safe.
Summary
Tofu is the only true flushable cat litter available in BD. It is a game-changer for hygiene, removing the "poop smell" from your trash bin entirely. Just flush responsibly!
