Is it safe to use sand as cat litter?

Using sand as cat litter is generally safe, but there are some considerations to keep in mind. Sand can be dusty and may not clump well, leading to tracking and mess. It also doesn't control odor as effectively as commercial cat litter. Make sure the sand is clean and free of harmful chemicals or parasites before using it for your cat. Regular cleaning and monitoring your cat's health are important if you choose to use sand as litter.
