Dr. Elsey's Precious Cat Ultra Clumping Cat Litter

Almost track free

Our cats rest everywhere in the house, including our bedroom, this litter barely tracks in a little. We use this with 3 cats in 2 boxes with a regular kitchen mat in front of it (regular cat track matt's they will just hop over bc it hurts their feet). I scoop everyday and this makes urine easier to collect. My only complaint is the plastic it comes packaged in attracts our male cat's claws, so...

I scoop everyday and this makes urine easier to collect. My only complaint is the plastic it comes packaged in attracts our male cat's claws, so we move it to bins saved from other brands for storage. Highly recommend for the price.

Switched from another popular litter

I remember when we brought the kittens home from California, I tried out a half dozen litters and settled on FS. I've used it ever since - 5 years. It was great at clumping and eliminating odors. However, it was very dusty. Our new kittens have had sneezing and coughing, and one thing my vet mentioned as a possible cause (outside the obvious ones, URI etc.) is dusty clumping litter. So I stood in...

I remember when we brought the kittens home from California, I tried out a half dozen litters and settled on FS. I've used it ever since - 5 years. It was great at clumping and eliminating odors. However, it was very dusty. Our new kittens have had sneezing and coughing, and one thing my vet mentioned as a possible cause (outside the obvious ones, URI etc.) is dusty clumping litter. So I stood in the store reading reviews on my phone for litters. This one stood out as being "(almost) zero dust" and it was half as expensive as my usual litter... so I took the plunge. Well, I can verify that it is as close to zero dust as possible. Poured two full new boxes of it, did not see, smell or feel a bit of dust (and I am asthmatic). The test was going to be how well it clumps. The old litter kept everything together except occasional little bits that would drop off, small enough to fall right through the scoop holes. After some time using this litter, I've found it to be identical in this aspect. It's not the hardest clumping litter out there. However, it performs much better than some others that left the clumps soft and vulnerable to breaking apart as you try to scoop them. Note that this litter claims it has no perfumes or deodorants. The former is great for me - hate perfumes/fragrances added to things. The latter, though, means that, well, there's nothing to deodorize the waste. You can add a deodorizer if you want. I use covered boxes so not much smell gets out, not the biggest deal for me. But it bears mentioning. Also, just to reemphasize... HALF as expensive as most litters. 40lb bag cost LESS than a 20lb box of the usual brands. If you're going to have to experiment with a new litter, this is a great place to start because it's a lot less cost sunk if it doesn't turn out to work for you.

The Solution to My Cat's Coughing Problem!

My cat had had a cough for over a year. It wasn't bad till a few months ago so I took him to the vet. To make a long story short, I spent about $500 at the vet over the past month trying to figure out what was wrong with him. We thought asthma for the longest but the medication wasn't helping. We thought heartworms (luckily it wasn't that) and lungworms. After no medication working I decided to...

My cat had had a cough for over a year. It wasn't bad till a few months ago so I took him to the vet. To make a long story short, I spent about $500 at the vet over the past month trying to figure out what was wrong with him. We thought asthma for the longest but the medication wasn't helping. We thought heartworms (luckily it wasn't that) and lungworms. After no medication working I decided to try something else. I stopped using harsh chemicals to clean with, I dusted every day, I didn't use any air fresheners and I changed switched his food to grain free. After nothing working, I decided to try a new litter. Obviously I wanted something hypoallergenic and dust free. When I saw this, it was perfect. I've only been using it for 3 days but my cat hasn't had one single coughing since! I am so relieved and pleased. The only thing bad I'd say is it really isn't that great with masking the odor, but I seriously don't care. I'd rather smell it than have my cat have coughing fits all the time.

Great litter.

It does track more than others, but the dust and perfume free make up for it. I love this litter.

Best litter ever

This litter is amazing. I researched all sorts of litter before this and finally settled on pine litter. And while pine litter odor control is good for urine, it's terrible for solid waste. This odor control is so much better than pine litter. Before, I had to plug my nose and vent the entire apartment every time my cats pooped, not to mention going through entire bottles of air fresheners each...

This litter is amazing. I researched all sorts of litter before this and finally settled on pine litter. And while pine litter odor control is good for urine, it's terrible for solid waste. This odor control is so much better than pine litter. Before, I had to plug my nose and vent the entire apartment every time my cats pooped, not to mention going through entire bottles of air fresheners each month. With this litter, I can't even smell it. This litter also forms hard clumps that don't fall apart. In addition, this litter doesn't track nearly as much as the pine litter. I use this clumping litter with the litter robot. The only downside to using this litter is that my local petco store doesn't have it and shipping on the website is so expensive. Hopefully, this litter will be in more stores soon. It really is an amazing product.
