I have tried just about every litter on the market of the “clumping” variety. I moved a year and a half ago from a home where I had lived with two cats for years. While helping me pack this huge house which was filled with way too much “stuff,” my daughter and her husband both commented on all the dust on everything, especially everything close to the above-ground basement where the two litter boxes were placed. Both of them said the dust made them cough, and once I started paying attention, I realized that I was coughing myself every time I cleaned the litter boxes, and the coughing got worse from disturbing the dust going through and sorting and packing. Once I was in the house I rented, I tried two or three different clumping litters, but all of them had the same heavy perfume odor and there was dust from it everywhere, and about half an inch of dust in the bottom of the litter box at all times, so there is no wonder it was getting everywhere with the help of the cats digging and the stuff flying everywhere. Not only that, but the cats sometimes had “damp” paws, the dust would stick to the paws, and they were tracking cement-like trails across the laminate flooring – and the carpeting as well, though at least I could not SEE that! Then I bought a house and spent four months remodeling it. Once again, during the process of packing, we could all see the cat litter dust everywhere and smell that heavy perfume they use to mask odor. I decided that before I moved into my home with brand new everything, including floor tile, carpeting, blinds, etc., I was going to do some research and try to find a less irritating and dusty litter. My reasoning was that if it was making people cough, it could not be good for my cats to breathe it, either. and I had had more than enough of the dust and the “wet cement” paw marks! I decided to give Precious Cat a try, and this was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I am just sorry it took me so long to take the time and do the research. I have been using Precious Cat since the end of February. There is no perfume odor whatsoever, there is absolutely NO dust at all, the litter clumps as hard as a rock and never comes to pieces while being scooped, and for some reason, I seem to be adding litter to the boxes less frequently. I have not quite figured out the reason for this yet! Yes – it is pricey, but it is worth the price to me to get rid of that constant cloying smell and the dust everywhere all the time. At least Amazon has it now PRIME, which is a huge benefit, because I looked at Petco on-line and thought I had found a real deal. Wow! Forty pounds for $15.99! Then I got to checkout and the shipping was over $16.00! So back I came to blessed Amazon.com, and this is where I will purchase my Precious Cat Litter from now on. I will pay the higher price for such a high-quality litter, especially since I am using less of it than any other litter I have used in the past. Thanks for carrying Precious Cat, Amazon – and thanks for having it available PRIME, too. By the way, anyone who says the “pee balls” stick to the bottom of the box, try this: I lift one end of the box and drop it about 2 inches back to the floor, then tilt it away from me and repeat the process. This completely loosens the clumps and they are easy to scoop. I do this because I am 74 and the less time I spend being down on my knees cleaning litter boxes, the better off I am! I DID replace my litter boxes, because the ones I had were made of some weird kind of plastic that the clumps DID stick to. Remembering a Maine Coon cat breeder with a LOT of cats and kittens who used plastic tote bins without the lids, I bought two Rubbermaid Roughneck bins with 8″ sides, tossed out the lids that came with them, and they are in use now as litter boxes and work great. The higher sides keep the litter from being thrown out with fastidious kitties getting carried away in the covering up process and flinging the litter about, and because one of my cats is a 17-pound Maine Coon female, she is VERY happy not to have to cram her big furry self, including her gorgeous long plume of a tail, into even the largest covered litter box I could find. We are ALL much happier with Precious Cat and new open-top litter boxes! And I must be honest – my first purchase of Precious Cat was NOT from Amazon, because at the time it was not PRIME and I got it cheaper elsewhere. Happily, this is not the case any longer.

I wanted to give a very detailed review because I tried using reviews to choose litter, but it was very hard to do because often the reviews vary wildly in describing the same qualities of the same litter. I’ll start by saying I’ve tried Fresh Step, Tidy Cats, Arm & Hammer, Pretty Litter, and various other silicone litters before settling on this one. I have one short haired, older female kitty who has one litter box.For a long time, I used Arm & Hammer clump and seal litter. I didn’t hate it, but felt like it didn’t clump as well as it could and I wanted to try something else. So I switched to Pretty Litter for a while because I liked the color changing aspect. However, I started to notice that it wasn’t lasting as long as it was supposed to and I didn’t want to keep paying that much for something that wasn’t doing what it was supposed to. I liked the no-clump aspect, but it seemed to irritate my kitty’s toes. She was constantly picking stuff off the hair on her feet (and she doesn’t have long hair at all) and I felt like it tracked a lot. I then tried a few different silicone litters, but the more affordable ones were too hard to find regularly (ie often out of stock).So after all that experimentation, I had a few qualities I was looking for:- low dust- low tracking (I live in a very small apartment where there aren’t many steps between the litter box and the couch or the bed)- low odor- hopefully non-clumpingI ended up compromising on the non-clumping part, because this litter meets my other wish list items so well.- Dust: I haven’t tried some of the “natural” litters like the ones made from corn, wheat, etc. so I can’t speak for those. But otherwise I have used many of the popular litters and I have concluded that there probably isn’t a 100% dust free litter. I think it’s just the nature of such a product. However, this has less dust than any other litter I can think of and I love that.- Tracking: again, not sure if there exists a 100% no track litter. But in my experience, this tracks the least. I did notice after I was sick for a couple weeks (still scooping ofc but not as worried about cleaning up the litter on the floor) it did start to get a little spread out and ground into the carpet. But as long as I was vacuuming regularly I barely noticed any tracking.- Odor: this and the low tracking were probably the main selling points for me. I’ve honestly forgotten to scoop the box a couple times because I. NEVER. SMELL IT! Even when scooping it, it hardly smells. Only towards the end of its life cycle does it tend to stink much, but again, that’s only when scooping. And I use the scent free one! I hate the smell of scented cat litter (it gets too strong for me and in my head it’s a “cover up” smell, like spraying perfume on a dirty shirt or pants lol) I think this is the best quality of this litter. If odor is your sticking point, I’d definitely recommend trying this.- Clumping: as I said above, this was what I compromised on. **This IS a clumping litter.** But it clumps EXTREMELY well. Honestly sometimes it’s a bit like scooping a rock. If it’s a larger clump sometimes I have to put in some effort to break it in half. So because of that and how great the other qualities are, I was fine with switching back to a clumping litter. I have a Litter Genie so it’s not too much of an inconvenience. Actually, my only (very minor) complaint would be that the clumps get too heavy to fill the Litter Genie bag as full as I’d like, but it doesn’t bother me that much.- Price: I haven’t sat down and figured out how this one compares to the others in terms of price, but it’s at least comparable and I think very reasonable for the quality of what you get. The 18lb bag is a little more than enough to fill up the litter box, and has been lasting about a month.So glad I decided to try Dr. Elsey’s! I hope this review is helpful to anyone else shopping around for litter like I was.

From Crystal to Clay: My Experience with This Cat Litter
I recently decided to switch from crystal to clay litter and ordered two bags, intending to have an extra on hand in case I got busy. However, I was surprised when they shipped me one massive 40kg bag instead. It was incredibly heavy, and lifting it felt like it was going to break my back.Unfortunately, the packaging was disappointing. There was a tear in the bag, causing sand to spill out. Unlike other brands that package their product in a box to prevent damage, this one didn’t seem to care about protecting the product during shipping.When people say the clumping is HARD, they mean it—literally. Scooping and cleaning the litter box was a real struggle. On the plus side, it does the job well, isn’t dusty, and controls odors to some extent. Adding a litterbox deodorant helped significantly with odor control.In conclusion, for its price, this is probably the best affordable litter on the market, especially if you’re concerned about your cat’s lungs due to dust. I’m not sure if my cat loves it, but he definitely prefers it over the old clay litter I bought in the past. While I still personally prefer crystal litter for its softness on the paws, it’s just too expensive. Overall, this is a good product, and I’ll consider buying it again—just in a smaller size.

This Litter is a MIRACLE Worker!!!
For the past two years since I brought my female kitten home, she has refused to use her litter box. I originally thought it might be the litter so tried just about everything you can possibly try. I took her to the vet who was convinced it must be an aversion to her litter tray due to her constant diarrhea however after solving her tummy troubles -she still kept on defecating outside of her litter box (sometimes in the lounge much to my horror). I even enlisted the help of a cat-psychologist who suggested I use seven(!) litter trays to ensure there was no where left for her to go on the bathroom floor. I honestly was at my wits end as she’s such a lovely cat but picking up poop isn’t fun for anyone.I decided there must be some sort of product to help lure her into her tray and that’s when I finally found Dr Elsey’s attracting litter. I immediately ordered some and within hours of putting it out, my cat finally used her litter tray!! A miracle worker is what I call this stuff. I can’t recommend it enough. My other male cat has even decided to bin his trays (filled with Catsan Natural Clumping) and started using Dr Elsey’s.Unlike some, I haven’t found it dusty at all. The tracking is much better than anything else I’ve used (my cats are long-haired) and it clumps so well! I haven’t had any issues with it sticking at all as I use a very sturdy pooper scooper (BasicForm Metal Cat Litter Scoop, also from Amazon) which is very durable.Honestly, even if it did create a mess, the fact is my cat actually uses it so I don’t care how troublesome it might have been, but I actually smile now when I go to clean the trays as it’s so easy! It’s been over a week now and I’m over the moon. Who knew such a small thing could radically change my world?!For anyone with a cat who avoids their litter box – this product is definitely worth the money, just get it already!

お値段の価値あり◎
以前はシステムトイレを使用していましたが、トイレ嫌々サインや粗相をするようになってしまい固まる砂へと切り替えました・ライオンの固まる砂時間を置くと中心は固まるが周りがぼろぼろ崩れて掃除がとてもめんどくさい粉塵がすごくて猫も私もくしゃみ連発･コーナン製の炭入りベントナイトライオンと同程度の固まり具合猫の手が真っ黒になってしまい慌てて中止･燃やせる紙砂固まり具合や砂がトイレから飛び散らなくて◎私はとても気に入っていたが猫が気に入らずラグに粗相してしまう途方に暮れていたときにDrエルスレイを試しに使用してみたところ感動しました！コスパは良くないかもしれませんが、がっちり固まって粉塵もほぼありません！猫も大喜びで砂をほりほり(^^)ただ粒が極小なので飛び散りが凄い防止マット必須、あっても凄いですが私は本当に出会えてよかった商品です！トイレ掃除にかかる時間もストレスも激減した今年のベストバイ！
