Highlighted Reviews

β€” Michele

"Love that probiotics were added, it’s little to no dust, small granules as soft on little furry feet. All around a healthy option."

β€” Holly

"This product is lightweight and odor control is decent, but it does not clump hard. Even after about 15 minutes, the clumps are still gummy and if you don’t get every little bit of it, it sticks to the side of the litter box and eventually becomes concrete."

Bottom Line

Despite its pros, the significant dust and clumping issues make it a problematic choice for those with respiratory issues or who prefer a clean litter box.
