Highlighted Reviews
"I really love this litter and my cats do too. It keeps the area smelling good. My only issue with it is the packaging it comes in, which is just a bag. I wish it were packaged in a sealing container which would also make it easier to pour. Other than that, I love it."
"Holy Clouds of Dust, My first impression of this litter was pretty good, but that was when I mixed it with my prior litter. Now that I transitioned to 100% Frisco it's terrible. There are big clouds of dust in the air when I scoop it. The bathroom floor and hallway have dust all over them and my cat..."
Bottom Line
Overall Frisco's Cat litter is fairly litter with respectable odour handling, is inexpensive, but comes with cons like high tracking and dust issues. It's a decent option for budget-conscious cat owners who don't mind minor inconveniences. Though with the active use of a litter mat it can minimize tracking issues. Give it a good appreciable review but keep in mind to buy less in quantities in order to refrain dust buildups and from tracking.
