About Soenchie

Soenchie is an amazing Cape Town-based ceramic studio run by Zelda, who makes the most beautiful water and food bowls for your feline and canine kids! I ordered a custom lower version of the classic white bowl for their water and 3 kitty ear bowls for their food. Zelda has two types of kitty ear bowls, so I asked her via Instagram to make these for me in white, and I asked that the water bowl be lower so that my kitties could comfortably drink water without having to reach over a high rim. Each kitty ear bowl has it’s own unique shape as they are hand made, and I love that they are each unique, just like my girls who love using them. Thank You Zelda! I donated their old food bowls to Tears Animal Rescue so other kitties can use them.

Where to buy?

I custom ordered these Soenchie bowls via Instagram but Soenchie bowls are also available on their online shop, as well as from Fabricate, Mash Boutique, Jimnojean and Back’s.

Coco Cat recently gifted me 2 boxes of their all natural litter to try out.

Why use natural litter?

Did you know that synthetic litter contains harsh chemicals that is not only harmful to the environment, but also to your family including your feline kids. Natural litter on the other hand is environmentally friendly, free from harsh chemicals, compostable, biodegradable and safe for your family.

Coco Cat litter is made from coconut husk, a renewable resource which is very absorbent, great for odour control and can be composted.

My Experience

I love that Coco Cat litter is compostable, all natural and locally made. The product itself is lightweight and comes in a recyclable cardboard box. The litter is super soft on the kitty’s paws and they just loved using it. Compared to the natural litters on the market the price is not bad, and a box lasts about 1 and a half weeks with 3 cats.

There is one down side though, it is extremely messy. Because it is basically a fine powder, it ends up everywhere around the litter box. It does not track very far though, but the bathroom where the litter box is kept, what quite messy. I basically got into the habit of dusting the bathroom every day. Even though I had to clean more than usual, I would still highly recommend Coco Cat litter to someone looking for an all natural alternative.

Where to buy?

Coco Cat is available from Shop Zero, who have a physical store as well as Nude foods.
