Preferably, the substrate is a grain germ; more preferably, the substrate is a corn germ; most preferably, the substrate is washed, spent grain germ. In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the invention, the grain germ is provided in the form of discrete plural granules, each of which granules includes a cohesiveness agent in an amount sufficient to enhance to cohesiveness of the granule.

L'invention a trait à une litière pour animaux à base de céréales. Selon l'invention, la litière pour animaux comprend une pluralité de particules distinctes d'un substrat à base de céréales, lesquelles particules tendent à s'agglomérer et prendre la forme de masses lorsqu'elles sont mouillées. La litière de l'invention absorbe les liquides tels que les excrétions animales dont elle réduit sensiblement l'odeur. Le substrat se présente avantageusement sous la forme d'un germe de céréales, de préférence, le substrat peut être un germe de maïs et idéalement le substrat est un germe de céréales lavé résiduaire.
