Ingredients

The Litter Cats Love

Dr. Elsey’s believes litter can be loved—by cats and their owners. They’re on a mission to help keep cats in loving homes by providing proven, veterinarian-formulated solutions.

They Speak for Cats

Dr. Elsey’s puts heart, soul, and science into every product to solve the complex needs of pets. Every problem calls for a solution, whether it’s bringing a fussy cat back to the box, keeping paws free of dust, or fueling pets’ ancestral dietary needs.

Bring Your Cat Back to the Box

A problem cat is one who chooses not to use the litter box. There are three likely causes: medical ailments, territorial marking, or behavioral issues. Cat Attract helps fight litter box aversion and bring cats back with a natural herb blend.

Dr. Elsey’s is a veterinarian-owned brand dedicated to meeting the complex needs of cats. Founded in 1987 with the first all-natural clumping cat litter, their line has since grown to include a variety of products for cats at every stage of life.

We switched to this litter after previously using freshstep multi cat. I like that this is fragrance free. It clumps the best out of all litters we have tried, no broken pieces that get left in the litter when scooping. So in that way it does make it much longer lasting. Low odor, but I do find I have to add a litter deodorizer (Frag.Free w/ zeolite..) Price is good. My only complaint is the packaging. Not super convenient if you don’t use up the whole bag at once.

Hard clumping

Am i the only one struggling to move or pick up the 40 lb bag of this stuff? Lol. The weight aside, this litter works well to cover the smells, is low dust and low tracking, and clumps hard... Very hard. When i clean the box in the morning and evening the clumps are like concrete and hard to scrape off my plastic box (you definitely need a stainless steel box for this clay litter) which is why i took a star off. Aurora didn't have an issue with this litter, but ClawDia didn't like using it. I think it hurts her joints, as she has arthritis. For that reason alone i will probably be trying a different, softer litter. This is the best and healthiest brand of clay litter, though.

I love that this litter is basically smell free to my nose. I had a friend come over and ask where the litter box is because she couldn't smell anything. It's in a spot that is not hidden and she had walked past it a couple of times.

Concrete clumping

Great product, we were using the crushed walnut style litter but it has been underwhelming lately so we tried this, it clumps amazingly, turns their waste to concrete

Great product, we were using the crushed walnut style litter but it has been underwhelming lately so we tried this, it clumps amazingly, turns their waste to concrete. I could pave roads with this stuff, probably work better.

No mess or foul smells

Using the rococo and roxie litter deodorizer and the alzoo makes it last longer and I always buy a large box of baking soda for daily sprinkles when when daily cleaning

Cat litter everywhere

Boxes arrived with cat litter, coming out the sides. I open the 2 boxes to find cat litter everywhere the bags must have be punctured somewhere before they arrived
