Provided is a litter for animals that has a reduced bulk density while retaining an advantage of a granular material containing bentonite as a main component, i.e., an ability to form a granular mass having a high strength and low height after urine absorption. The litter for animals according to the present invention comprises a plurality of granular materials including a high-bulk density granular material and a low-bulk density granular material at a ratio by mass of 60:40-40:60, wherein: the high-bulk density granular material contains bentonite as a main component; and the low-bulk density granular material is configured of a core layer and a skin layer, said skin layer coating the surface of the core layer and containing a binder by which grains of the plurality of granular materials are bound to each other.
