Title: Best clumping litter ever and lightweight easy scooping but doesn't absorb odors
Review: This litter is super lightweight and easy to scoop. Perfect for hands that are sore with arthritis! It is dust free. It clumps urine hard and dries out fecal material (poop) so well that waste is minimal - even stays together in firm clump when my one cat pees along the litterbox wall and clump comes free from wall without extra effort. This is the best of any litter I have ever used in my 30 years of owning cars and working in kennels and vet hospitals!! Truly!But there is a trade off. I wanted unscented (and used unscented scoopable clay litter too), and this litter is scent-free except for a subtle kind of woody smell when first poured into the box. The downside is that is does not absorb odors aa well so some days, I know when one of the cats has used the box because it smells. This is getting better as I find the best diet for my cats though (their poop has less smell so less smell to block). I have one covered and one uncovered litterbox and the smell is an issue with both equally I think. I am sure if I left it, the grass litter would dry the poop up great and the smell with it...but I can't stand to try it so I scoop right away when it happens, which is only occasionally. This is why I gave it 3 stars for scent. Not sure there is an answer to this without adding unnatural scents and/or dustiness to the litter - which are both worse in my opinion. Mixing some clay litter in is an option (see rest of review below) but I quit because of the negatives with this option. The clay litter just gets kind of sticky and is so heavy.They track both of the litters just as much I think. The grass litter is much easier to sweep or vacuum up even if it gets into a wet spot on the floor before I get to it. The grass litter seems to get trapped by the mats I have the litterboxes on better than the clay litter did. I included photos of my most recent set up and it is the least amount of litter tracked beyond the mats yet!My cats switched to this grass litter easily. I mixed in 1/4 or so of this new litter with their old litter. I had used Tidy Cat Clumping Unscented litter for years - all of my oldest 7 year old cat and for 12 years before that. As I scooped, I only added the new grass litter in as I needed more until the boxes were totally grass litter. On the 2nd litter box, I went from 1/2 or so straight to all grass litter with no issue (But be careful trying this - a picky cat might have balked and avoided the box because of this.) Two of my cats still prefer the Tidy Cat litter because they will use the litterbox with some of the Tidy Cat in it if I make it available (I had to experiment - pi ture 3 is a mix of litters) but all of the cats use the all grass litterbox some still even with Tidy Cat in their other box. Most importantly, they are perfectly willing to use the litterboxes fully and without issue with just grass litter in them both.As for brand, I tried this brand, one other grass litter brand (Both chosen for first trial by cost and good reviews.) and a crushed walnut shell litter. The other grass litter was more dusty - not good for my cats or my allergies - and I think I may be allergic to walnuts. The walnut shell litter had a noticeable nutty smell (not bad, just noticeable) and minimal dust despite better odor control...but my eyes itched and watered and my skin started itching after changing and scooping the boxes. This stopped again once all the walnut litter was gone. So this grass litter is all I buy now.I am going to order a couple of round, from the top litterboxes made by a start up company that are designed to work best with this kind of litter. Maybe the litterbox design will help with the occasional "stinky poop" issue. Just the lack of dust and ease of scooping due to superior clumping and lightweightness of the litter seal the deal for me. I am 6 months or so in to the switch and not planning to ever go back. I have 3 cats and two litterboxes. I try to scoop daily but have gone a week a couple of times and all of the above still held true. That was never the case with the scoopable clay litter. (Note: One litterbox per cat is the ideal but seems to be ok for us. I will post again if and when I get new litterboxes.)Quick additional note - The two bags for my subscribe & save order arrived this time with holes in them! The outside box was fine so don't think it was a delivery issue. One bag's hole was a slice and had a red heavy sticker over it so damage clearly occurred pre-shipment. The sticker had come mostly unstuck though so litter was spilled out in the box. I am in contact with Amazon and expect they will make it right. This is the 1st time I had issues with a litter shipment. Not an issue with litter itself but I am honestly not sure if this brand of litter is available elsewhere, such as through Chewy or local pet stores, so if Amazon handling becomes a recurring issue and they are the only source, this could be a negative.)

Title: UNSCENTED, excellent clumping & no noticeable dust, real-time and accumulated. REALLY. NO DUST.
Review: In manufacturing, there is a desire for fast, high quality and cheap. You can only ever have 2 out of 3.Cat litter is like that, too: Clumping, tracking, dust. You can never have all 3.I gave this litter 5 stars because it gave me the 2 that I had to have: clumping, and no dust. And I don't mean "no dust" like the "99.9% dust free" that I see on litters that, when I stick my head in the pan to scoop, choke me, and make me wipe all surrounding surfaces to get that sticky non-dust off.I mean, "no dust" as in:- none in the air when I vigorously scoop (I get the faintest whiff of a grain-like scent, though, but it's a faint, natural, outdoor smell (this is UNSECNTED - yay!).- so close to none on the surrounding surfaces- even wiping the litter mat after a month had only a minor amount of dirtPreviously, I have used "Dr Elsey's" and the walnut litters (usually combined). Both are great litters, and do their job, and I would love to use them if the box was in the garage, but not in the house.They clump well, track a bit, swear there is no dust, but my experience was dusty. Maybe my cat is a digger and a litter-shuffler (she is), and she will repeatedly go back and elaboratley mess around in the clean litter until someone cleans it.If your cat goes in, does its stuff, covers discreetly and gets out, they are probably fine.CAVEAT on the clumping: give it a few minutes. Try to scoop immediately and it is a sticky mess (but I think this is normal for all litters).Other reasons I love it:- UNSCENTED (healthier for me, healthier for my cats)- good, very faint, natural smell- unlikely to damage any hardwood floors (the litter consistency is more like flakes of uncooked cream-of-wheat than grits/sand)- vacuums up easily (I can't tell you how annoying it is to have the stick vacuum just push granules of tracked clumping litter around in front of the vacuum head as you try to clean it (I'm looking at you, "Dr Elsey's")! Not with this...just gets sucked right up).- no odor (okay, if my cat leaves a stinking bomb - nothing will work, not Poo-Pourri, Febreeze or a 14-year-old boy's dosage of Axe body spray, so I don't use that as a litter odor metric, ever...it's just got to go). But I stick my head into the top if the litter box enclosure and dig around, even after a month, no pee smell ever, no lingering poop smell (assuming none is waiting to be removed), smells fresh as the day I washed the box.- no rock formations cemented to the sides: "Dr Elsey's" was prone to this, but this litter almost seems to protect the box. Scoop stuff up and it rarely leaves anything stuck on the box.- less weird feeling on the hands: you know what I mean, that tacky/slimy feel on your fingers when you wash them after you get some the dust on them...guess because there is really virtually no dust.- I use a jumbo litter boxhttps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B075WX7BPD/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1and shield, and I pour one bag of litter in at the beginning of the month. Occasionally, I have to add a bit more at the end of week 3, but I am more generous because I have a digger.PHOTOS:- photo into the litter box, lid removed - I wiped. the sides inside with the black cloth- "dust" on black cloth - I wiped the inside of the litter enclosure after 3 weeks, using a fleece cloth.- Tracked litter on litter mat- wet wipes from wiping litter mat after a month of use (there are two, because my scrubbing caused the wipes to shred)

Review: have been trying to find an alternative to the good fine clay clumping litter I have been using as getting to heavy for me and also wanted something more environmental friendly. Have tried, wood,silicone, corn and walnut but either my cats would not use or the clumps fell apart. Discovered this litter on amazon ( but difficult to find even with the exact title) thought I would give it a try. Well,it's lovely and fine and soft for cats paws , not dusty. really light to handle. and has no smell . even after the cats use it if they don't cover quick enough, they can't find were they peeed! it clumps into a rubbery clumps which holds together so easy to remove. I just shake the litter tray and they come to the surface and be picked out . ( no experience of poo as my cats only pee inside but go out to poo. ) The only down side of this litter is the price which I expect is because it comes from American. just hoping that some pet company will buy in bulk so we can get cheaper and easier in the UK. highly recommend

Review: Honestly I don't get the negative reviews -- I literally buy this from Amazon so I can do a review here!To be fair, I once talked to a PetValu staff who seemed to be very knowledgable and told me that just like human, we're what we eat and the same goes to the cats: so each cat would have totally different PH value and different things in the urine which ultimately resulted in the clump-ability of different litters.However that being said, after having used literally pretty much all the brands and all types of litter in the market (seriously, all of them! because I have a very finicky cat who would pee on the floor left you scratch your head off not understanding why!), this is really by far the best litter that I've ever tried, period! If it's all possible, I would give it 6 stars!I only have two cats, but it's 2 of 2 "kitty approved" 🙂 Both of them love it better than any other type and brand. It clumps really well -- seriously, you don't see any other litter company does the same demo like SmartCat by throwing a clumped litter like a ball and see how well it holds.Also it covers the smell really, really well. In the past, especially when we have heat alerts, my bathroom tends to have some sour leftover food type of garbage smell with the other natural based litter. But with this, even with the heat wave this year, my bathroom is perfectly fine!And really, there is no dust. -- does it track? Of course! I haven't come across ANY litter that my cats weren't capable of tracking; seriously, zero brand or product! But with SmartCat it's tolerable and also when you step on it, it won't hurt and you won't feel like you're living at your beach house.Seeing is believing! -- I attach a few pictures to showcase how well it clumps and how little it tracks (and for my other cat who doesn't like to cover his pee or poop, the tracking is far less with my unique litter pan here!!)Yes it's on the pricy side, but it really worth of every penny. I used to use the other famous brand of corn based litter, but now I'm a hardcore fan of SmartCat. I just wish I had come across that YouTube commercial and review much earlier and it would save me years of trouble with my litter problems!!

Review: Litter clumps really hard making for a very easy cleanup. My cat has allergies and clay litters seem to cause the pads of her feet to dry and blister badly. There have been no problems with this litter at all! The particles are soft if you step on them and while there is a smell to the litter, it smells natural - not like chemicals and not like urine. It's been a great litter for our circumstances and needs! It's a bit on the pricey side but due to the hard clumps, none is wasted so it lasts. Also, I have found it to be dust free!! Recommended!

Review: Pros:- No dust (or the least amount of dust of over 30+ cat litters I have seen).- Amazing clumping (like a cat owner from the future just arrived and showed you how amazing future cat litter clumps). You can literally drop the a clump of cat pee 6 feet onto a hardwood floor (I don't know why you are doing this!) and it won't shed a crumb.- Smells like grass. Continues to smell like grass for ever and even a pee clump smells like grass. It's amazingCons:- Smells like grass. One of our cats loves to eat grass and has taken to eating the litter at times. He'll even take a pee clump out of the litter box and carry it to somewhere else because it smells more of grass than pee. Sadly we won't be using this litter due to this.- Tracks like you just got home from a glitter party and that shower you took did nothing. Litter paws track the fine fine particles (not dust) all over the house. Like far. Maybe your cats' paws are different, but this is a no go for us.- Not flush-able. Unlike many other non-clay litters, it does not fall apart when thrown in the toilet. I realise this is a trade off for the amazing clumping and so that's ok. Alternatively you can chop those pee clumps down and probably flush them anyways, or just have a separate bin for compost in the washroom and not worry because it doesn't ever smell bad anyways.
