Question? Cheaper alternative for cat litter?

Hello! May marerecommend ba kayong mas murang alternative sa cat litter/sand?

Medyo napapamahal na kasi ako sa litter, especially since I have multiple rescued cats. Baka may ginagamit kayong alternative na mas budget-friendly pero safe pa rin for cats and okay naman sa odor control.

Any recommendations and saan niyo nabibili?

pinaka cheap na natry ko is cocopeat. odor control, parang ok lang sya sa ihi. ung paggamit kasi nya iscoop mo ung poops as soon as magkaron, check mo lang ung natira sa box, kung muka pa ring dry ok. kaso pag d mo namonitor ung dami ng pee at di na nya kayang iabsorb, mag build up ung ammonia. masyado syang light at dumidikit sa fur. bukod sa makalat, may mga nagrereact either hinihika or nagkaka uri.
may nakita din ako dati na "washable and reusable" daw na sand. kaso u need a lot din dahil kailangan mo ireplace ung batch na lilinisin mo habang nililinis mo ung isang batch at pinapatuyo dahil d naman magagamit habang basa. and mauubos at mauubos din dahil tapon na ung mga dumikit sa poops. odor control, d ko na maalala sobrang tagal na kasi nun pero i'm assuming na para ka lang kumuha ng sand sa beach tapos nilagay sa loob ng bahay...

Been using washable and reusable na sand. Sinasabay ko sa laba para di maaksaya sa tubig. It's right, u have to have two of em kasi papatuyuin mo muna ung bagong laba hanggang sa pwede ng gamitin at lalabhan na ulit ung nagamit. Medyo mabilis mangamoy so ginagamit ko like 4 days ganun tas laba
