In a Nutshell

  • The cat doesn't appreciate it.
  • The age of 10 is comfortable for seniors but dissapointing to advance age because of the change

Quick Verdict

The lightweight, unscented Cat's Pride litter is convenient for those with mobility issues, but its lightweight nature makes it messy, and cats may not like it. The lack of clumping ability and dustiness are also concerns. For those who want litter specifically formulated with baking soda and light enough for seniors to lift.

Highlighted Reviews

β€” Kay

"The 10lb container is at the end of the pounds I can lift without injury. I was hoping it could be used the same as other litters. My cats seem to like it which is a plus and I use it just like the heavier ones."

β€” Gary

"It’s absolutely terrible. It’s so dusty every surface. My cat steps on is full of dust. Maybe it has to do with baking soda included in it. Could someone recommend a clump litter that does not have much dust?"

Bottom Line

Overall, it is a fair product for those who like lightweight catheter litter at a reasonable cost when guilt/fragrances are significant concerns and cattle must not be upset.
