First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A pet litter comprising a composition comprising 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane-4-methanol. 2. The pet litter according to claim 1 , wherein said composition further comprises an alkyl thiophosphoric triamide, preferably N-(n-butyl)-thiophosphoric triamide. 3. The pet litter according to claim 2 , wherein the at least one alkyl thiophosphoric triamide is present in an amount from about 0.5% to about 50% by weight of the composition, wherein the term about encompasses variations of ±5%. 4. The pet litter according to claim 3 , wherein the at least one alkyl thiophosphoric triamide is present in an amount from about 1% to about 30% by weight of the composition, wherein the term about encompasses variations of ±5%. 5. The pet litter according to claim 1 , wherein the litter comprises from about 0.01% to about 2% by weight, of 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane-4-methanol, wherein the term about encompasses variations of ±5%. 6. The pet litter according to claim 1 , wherein the litter comprises from 0.01% to 1% by weight, of 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane-4-methanol, wherein the term about encompasses variations of ±5%. 7. The pet litter according to claim 1 , wherein the litter comprises from about 0.01% to about 0.5% by weight, of 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane-4-methanol, wherein the term about encompasses variations of ±5%. 8. The pet litter according to claim 1 , wherein the litter comprises from 0.05% to 0.5% by weight, of 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane-4-methanol, wherein the term about encompasses variations of ±5%. 9. The pet litter according to claim 1 , wherein said composition is a liquid composition. 10. The pet litter according to claim 1 , further comprising an absorbent material. 11. The pet litter according to claim 10 , wherein said absorbent material is selected from the group consisting of clays, silica gels, woods, agricultural products, and combinations thereof. 12. A method of promoting in-litter elimination by a pet, wherein said method comprises: exposing a pet litter comprising a composition comprising 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane-4-methanol to the pet. 13. The method of claim 12 wherein said elimination is urination. 14. A method of preparing a pet litter, wherein said method comprises combining an absorbent material with a composition comprising 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane-4-methanol. 15. A kit comprising, in one or more containers in a single package: (i) a pet litter absorbent material, and (ii) a composition comprising 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane-4-methanol.
