Abstract
A package or bed of litter for small animals, having at least two horizontally disposed layers of particulate, liquid absorbent material, the upper layer of which is of relatively coarse particles and contains an odor suppressant therein. The lower layer may have odor suppressant in an amount substantially less than in the upper layer, though normally the lower layer would not contain any substantial amount of odor suppressant material. The litter is normally packaged in an elongated container, with the relatively coarse particulate material on top and the relatively fine particulate material on the bottom. When the litter is to be used, the bottom of the container is opened to permit the discharge of the litter from the container into a box, with the relatively fine material on the bottom and the relatively coarse material containing the odor suppressant on top.
