Fresh Step Extreme Odor Control Febreze Scented Clumping Clay Cat Litter

During the beginning of this Pandemic, everything was going out of stock...as you all know, so I jumped on it once I could lock onto an order w/o being held up for out of stock, the only problem I had is, it wasn't my favorite, and I had to settle for this one, and I am soooo glad I did. This brand from the eighties (I think), now has my devotion of never using anything else ever again. I haven't smelled anything since I filled the box..the one and only negative I have is the dust...just a light cloud during clearing it. All I have to do once a week, is to add up to 1/4 of a fresh bag, mix it in with the scoop, and it smells real good all the way through the 1 1/2- 2 months before changing the During the beginning of this Pandemic, everything was going out of stock...as you all know, so I jumped on it once I could lock onto an order w/o being held up for out of stock, the only problem I had is, it wasn't my favorite, and I had to settle for this one, and I am soooo glad I did.

My OCD wouldn't let me if the box was smelly at all!! I've had cats my whole life, I was a devoted user of A&H for over twenty years, if I was told that I would like any other brand, I would think/say 100% NO WAY!! Well, here I am: "VERY PLEASANTLY PLEASED" The one perk i have is they come in individual 10 lb bags!! Great for me, I have rods in my back and will be needing neck surgery soon, so NO HEAVY LIFTING. ABSOLUTELY WORTH EVERY PENNY AND MINUTE OF CLEARING IT!!! :)) . … more

I never buy scented litter, in these times we can only order what’s available online. When I was placing the order, my unscented litter was out of stock. I’m so glad I ordered this litter, it’s not as dusty as other litters, the clumps stay together when scooping out the litter they don’t fall apart and make a mess, you could hardly smell the Febreze scent. I was concerned that my cats would not use the litter if it was a heavy scent. My cats seem to like it so that is a plus.

so given that my usual Fresh Step Ultra Unscented Clumping Clay Cat Litter is out of stock (and by the way I TOTALLY RECOMMEND THAT ONE) I thought to myself, "hmm, fresh step is amazing so I am sure their other litters will be just as good". However, I was wrong. My usual Fresh Step is absolutely low dust, low odor, and clumps really well. This scented litter definitely has a scent. I would say that it does smell mildly like Febreze, but mostly like scented litter. I smell it on my cat and in the room. It isn't like there is just a nice Febreze scent, it is that there is a noticeable litter scent. Also, it is really dusty. I notice I even sneeze a couple of times when cleaning because of the so given that my usual Fresh Step Ultra Unscented Clumping Clay Cat Litter is out of stock (and by the way I TOTALLY RECOMMEND THAT ONE) I thought to myself, "hmm, fresh step is amazing so I am sure their other litters will be just as good".

The clumping also isn't great. The clumps break apart and then tiny, dirty litter clumps that are too small for my scooper dirty up the whole box. I, unfortunately, won't buy anymore Fresh Step until my usual is out of stock. It just goes to show that litter varies extremely even under the same brand name. … more

Well, I take a review to include everything about the order. This includes the packaging. The product gets a 5 star and the packaging gets a 1 star rating. I ordered the four X 10.2 lb bags that come together in a single package / order. It was shipped to me in a cardboard box that looked like it had been run over by a bus followed by a dump truck. If it wasn't for the manufacturers packaging (heavy plastic shrink wrap around the 4 individual bags), it would have never made it to my front door. The card board box that it was put in looks like it had to be repaired multiple times along the way with a roll and a half of packaging tape. It was smashed and torn and came to the front door literally Well, I take a review to include everything about the order. This includes the packaging.

It was smashed and torn and came to the front door literally torn to pieces and being held together by the tape alone. If you are shipping something that weights more than 40 lbs, don't you think it deserves packaging that will handle the weight? Nothing really needs to be said about the product since it works like it should. … more

I don’t know what it is but the Fresh Step always keeps me coming back. I don’t notice a smell like other litters and I feel like the clumping does the best even though no litter is as perfect as I’d like it to be. Happy to find I got it for less than $13 on Chewy.com... always looking for the best deal or I end up going with a cheaper brand.

I recently ordered this litter & was concerned it might be dusty based on other reviews. The maker must pay attention, because the box I received produced no visible dust, not filling box initially or when scooping. Hopefully that problem will stay corrected. I have 2 cats in a small house. Their room, where their feeding station, climbing toys & litter boxes are, is near the front door & it took awhile to find a litter that didn’t release horrible cat box smells, unavoidable when you entered my home. This litter has taken care of that. The litter had a strong fragrance when boxes were first filled but it lightened within 24 hours. My cats have no hesitation to use this litter, they don’t track I recently ordered this litter & was concerned it might be dusty based on other reviews.

I have 2 furbabies, both girls, 1 elderly, 1 will be 6 next month.my senor cat has a bladder the size of the ocean, give or take a gallon. Between that and her proclivity to ",drop bombs" that I swear are toxic (lol), my litter box was ready to escape! However, since discovering the fresh step extreme aloha flavor, we have relief from not-so-great clumping and the odor from of my senior's toxic bombs! I had recently switched from another brand, and this is less expensive at Chewy.com...a win-win situation,!

Only had my kittens about 5 months but during that time I have tried the "top" 3 pet litters. Arm & Hammer Slide Easy Clean-Up Litter, Dr. Elsey's Precious Cat Ultra Cat Litter and Arm & Hammer Clump and Seal. But Fresh Step has been the absolute best at controlling odors and it also clumps nicely. All litters listed here, to me, seem to track the same amount. There may be a difference in a laboratory with exact measurements but to the normal consumer, tracked litter is tracked litter. And a bonus of this litter, if you get the 4 10.5lb bags its the best price per pound!

I am so impressed with Chewy. When I placed my usual (prescribed) cat's food, I also decided to order her (kitty litter) as well, something I had not done before. Doing this in the middle of our "new normal," my order arrived within two days, all neatly packaged. Thank you Chewy.

I have tried several different types of litter but this one is my cats favorite and mine too. It is easy to scoop, dust free and clumping. It's priced right too. I am so glad that Chewy stocks it now because I can get it on autoship and never run out.
