Corn cat litter that is pine scented?

[naturefreak]

So I have this huge 20 pound cat who pees an excessive amount and have been on a quest to find a litter that would absorb and clump really well. I've tried virtually every kind there is and decided I like Swheat scoop the best but then my dad told me about this cat litter he got at walmart for under 6 dollars a bag that is corn and works really well. When he told me this I was picturing something like World's Best but when I picked some up it is completely different, it's almost flakey and really light. It has a pine scent which I thought was kind of odd since it's corn litter. It was a really strong scent for the first day but then it went away. I am amazed at how well this litter works, it's better than swheat scoop and worlds best in my opinion and a 10 pound bag lasts my cat about 12 days which is amazing for him as I was going through a 10 pound bag every few days when I tried other stuff. ANYWAY I was wondering if this is safe for ferrets? I don't own a ferret currently but am hoping to add a few in the coming years and if they keep making this litter I think it would work well. I'm concerned about the pine scent though, not so much the clumping as it's a lot like swheat scoop only better at clumping. Also I can't seem to find it online or in any petstores, only in walmart but the maker is 8 in 1. I'm going to try and figure out how to attach a picture of it. Also it's not in all Walmarts. Has anyone heard of this or used this litter? I guess they sell it in petco by different name and nearly tripple the price and that Walmart is considering to pull it from the shelves which is sad considering just how well it really works and how cheap it is. Last time I bought some they were almost sold out so people must like it. Here is a link.

I honestly don't know. My concern would be what they use to get the "pine" scent, since it's a corn base litter. If they are using EO's, it's a nono for both cats and ferrets.

I will not use corn-based litter/bedding of any kind for anything....corn is glutinous and if ingested, can form a mass in the stomach that is indigestible and difficult or impossible to pass. I have seen a number of reptiles die from this, and would think that ferrets would be at least at moderate risk of ingestion.

I have to admit that is my concern but many use it without problem. I don't but that's just me. I used it (not this product) for a time, didn't like it and am back to using a newspaper type product

I've never had an issue with consuming the litter

I haven't been using the corn litter all that long, but my ferrets seem to have zero interest in eating anything at all with poop on it.

That litter says it has a natural pine scent. I would think it has to be naturally scented. If it's an artificial scent, why in the world would they use pine when there are so many other ones out there? I searched online but I couldn't find anything on whether it has pine oils or essential oils in it or not. I suppose I could call the manufacturer...

I've been using corn based litters for a long time with no problems at all. Mine have no interest in ingesting their litter either Even the bit they've accidentally taken in when they've dropped meat in there haven't caused any problems at all.
