I have also looked for cat litter containing zeolites with no
success (or at least with products that specify zeolites are
present, maybe the information is proprietary?).  But I have found
another product in the pet department by Van Ness at Canadian Tire
which is a zeolite Air Filter (used in litter boxes).  It clearly
states "zeolites" are a component in the product.
