Do tofu litter and clay litter have the same change frequency?

Roughly the same — both are typically changed every 2–3 weeks. Actual frequency depends on the number of cats, box size, and how often you scoop daily. Diligent daily scooping can extend the interval between full changes.

Can I just top up with fresh litter instead of doing a full change?

Topping up after scooping is correct practice, but periodic full changes are still necessary. Residue and bacteria accumulate at the bottom of the box over time, leading to odor and hygiene issues if never fully replaced.
