"My beloved kitties love it! "
"This is my first time using this brand and I don't recommend it at all. Once I poured it to the litter box, the dust was flying all over and my air purifier alarm was on. I needed to hold my breath for that, let alone to have my cats using it....It's also very ironic that it even advertises as 99.9%..."
