Is all clumping cat litter potentially harmful to cats?

leona8522 asked:


So, I heard cats can sometimes ingest clumping cat litter and this can cause impactions in their lungs. Is this true for all clumping cat litter or only non-natural clumping cat litter like scoop away? Like does the world’s best cat litter pose this same risk to cats or not since its made of corn?

    The litter clumps from moisture so if cat cleans its paws by licking them after the litterbox it will ingest particles and can clump.
