It makes me so sad that they changed this litter, and I see that others feel the same. I used it for three years for my asthmatic cat, and it was great. Worked very well at not disturbing his asthma, and also controlled odors and clumped well. Enter the new and improved formula. First, as many have said, it does not clump well and the new particle size is awful. Second, it seems dustier, which is a major fail given the products marketing. And third, it does NOT control odor nearly as well. I'm so disappointed! I hope they bring back the old formula.

I have been looking for a dust free litter for years. Some many say 99% dust free. I am not sure 99% from what! This product really is dust free.

I began using this particular litter a number of years ago after it was recommended by my vet at the time; a couple of my cats had respiratory problems as I did myself. We all were quite happy with the product until the last couple of months. It has become very dusty and has lent a "dusty" odor throughout my house. For my health as well as that of my kitties, I really need to find a different litter. I cannot recommend this one to any one else at this time.

I have been buying this PCRR cat litter for years and years. However, the "New Improved Particle Size" is horrible. It's sharp and jagged and difficult to sift. As a result, I end up removing more litter than I need to, which means I'm going through it faster. That's great for Dr. Elsey but bad for the consumer. It has to feel sharp on my cat's pads as well. The once perfect litter, just turned into a nightmare, and I will likely look for another brand. Dr. Elsey - if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

We've been using this for about 2 months - it's great! There is no litter dust at all. Clumps really well. Having indoor cats for over 15 years, we've used over a dozen types of litter. Arm & Hammer clumped really well, but later in years it became more dusty. This product is great!

One of my cats had tears, tear stains and eye crust and I was not sure what was causing it. I changed his food to venison and his litter to this one and something is working for him, it could be a combo of both. It clumps, I have no complaints!

Been using for years and now seems to have a lot dust in it, got 4 boxes recently that was brown litter in it rather than the gray and had no dust but the next 4 boxes were back to the dusty gray, very disappointed in this product anymore. Bathroom is covered in dust

I have been using this litter for years. The new and improved version is awful. Will not clump.

I have COPD and my 1st time using this I needed my inhaler, then an updraft. So if you have any respiratory issues or your cat does I would suggest finding something better. Both boxes I got, I needed to wear a mask.

I had been using the Dr. Elsey's Ultra litter for awhile until it suddenly turned INCREDIBLY dusty (the worst I've ever encountered), so I gave the Respiratory Relief a shot. There's almost no dust to speak of and clumps really well. However, I'm leery since other recent reviews say this is extremely dusty, which makes me wonder if I received a box of old formula vs. the new (as the Ultra had abruptly changed, it's possible the Respiratory Relief had also changed but I received an old-formula box). My only real issue is this is an expensive box of litter -- my cat loves digging to china, so I usually end up using all 15 lbs in a month.
