🇬🇧 Litter meaning: English Vocabulary Flash Card

Litter is a special kind of sand or tiny pellets that people pour into a box so pets, like cats or small animals, can use it as their toilet inside the house. The litter helps soak up pee and cover poop so it doesn’t smell too bad, and it’s easy for humans to scoop it out and keep the pet’s bathroom area clean.
