World’s Best Cat Litter donates 200,000 pounds to shelters and rescues

World’s Best Cat Litter partnered with Rescue Pack and United Pet Fund to distribute 200,000 pounds of litter to more than 220 shelters and rescue organizations in June. The donation adds to the brand’s GiveLitter program, which has supplied 10 million pounds of litter since 2010.

Why it matters: - The donation helps shelters and rescues cut operating costs. - Lower supply costs can free up money for medical care, adoptions and other lifesaving work. - The litter went to organizations serving animals across multiple states, widening the reach of the support.
