    Abstract: An animal litter is provided that includes a sorbent granule composed of granule particulate that is able to pass ?20 screen sieve and a binder such that greater than 90% of said granules have a size of between ?5 and +60 screen sieve. The granule has an oil coating thereon. An animal litter is produced by milling sorbent material to a particulate size such that greater than 90% by weight of said particulate is ?20 screen sieve size or finer. The sorbent material is then agglomerated to the milled particulate to a granule size of between ?5 and +60 screen sieve with a binder. The granule is then coated with an oil. Extrusion represents a preferred mode of agglomeration.
