Highlighted Reviews

— Susanne

"I love the fact that it is lightweight, easy to scoop and importantly my cat doesn't carry the litter everywhere. So yes, I will buy it again. I have experimented with several kinds of litters. Now I have found what I was looking for."

— Samantha

"One of the 2 containers was open and the entire box was filled with loose litter. We lost a lot of the second jug."

Bottom Line

Overall, it is a good choice for basements or secondary litter boxes but may not be suitable for main living areas due to tracking.
