Okocat Super Soft Clumping Wood Unscented Cat Litter

If you have the choice between this and the regular formula, go with the regular. It's softer on kitty's paws and clumps urine really well, but handling it is more difficult than it's worth. The litter is so light that it easily forms clouds of sawdust. Nobody wants a lungful of cat litter, not humans, not cats. Since I've started using it, the cat sometimes emerges from the litterbox with a dusty face, and she tends to scratch the sides more rather than cover her mess as Nature intended. Then, when I try to clean the box, I have to be extra careful scooping it to avoid inhaling dirty litter. Yuck! She seems to like the softer feel but neither of us is really comfortable with the dust clouds. If you have the choice between this and the regular formula, go with the regular.

As someone who uses a carpet cleaner machine on my house floors I can say 2 things about this cat litter and tracking . 1.) Yes it "tracks" 2) no it's not more and actually less than clay based litter based on the amount I vacuum and gather up with the floor cleaner. Clay litter is good at hiding in cracks and sinking to the carpet pad. This litter is a game changer you can see it, which means no it's not magically getting in more places then your old litter...its being more viable. As for smell... I have had 0 issues I scoop 1 box 2x a week and box daily. With clay I had to deep clean the boxes...with this I never have anything stuck in the pan. No need for harsh cleaning or killing my back As someone who uses a carpet cleaner machine on my house floors I can say 2 things about this cat litter and tracking . 1.)

I get the largest size of this box, it's light and fluffy and a game changer. If you don't want to poor it out the side flap, dont puncture it and just open the flaps on the top of the box and scoop it out. My cats have acted less lethargic since getting this liter and they no longer stink like wet clay and old lady perfume. … more

I'm pickier than my cat about litter. Has to clump but not be clay. I can't tolerate artificial scents, but it needs long-lasting odor control because the only place in my apartment to fit the litter box is the entry closet where the smell can greet every incoming guest, and I am not always able to scoop every day. Most of the plant-based litters smell like a barnyard after a couple of days. Okocat smells mostly like sawdust in a woodworking shop, which is a smell I like. It's lightweight, so the carton is easy to handle. It clumps well enough and doesn't have to be chiseled for the sides of the litterbox like another brand I tried. The litter does tend to scatter around, but my entry isn't I'm pickier than my cat about litter. Has to clump but not be clay.

I have tried several of the OKO formulations, and this one clumps well and (to my nose) seems a bit more effective at odor control. And that is really important in a multi cat household. I will note that it does track. This is not a knock on the product; it is just something that happens when you have a fine textured litter and cats with long fur on their toes.

So since I have a double declawed calico diva in my house who has a hobby of peeing on the carpet and just generally being grumpy, I decided to switch from the Tidy Cats lightweight litter to this stuff. She is still golden water-painting on the floor (can I recommend some wee wee pads for ya'll?), but I don't think it's the litter. I'm pretty sure it's just her charming demeanor. But as a litter, this is somewhat middle of the road for me. It's ok and pretty much does the trick of clumping while boosting my ego of being an environmentally conscientious person. My biggest issue with it is that it claims to be dust free/low dust. I've been wondering if the wooden bits were made from the growth So since I have a double declawed calico diva in my house who has a hobby of peeing on the carpet and just generally being grumpy, I decided to switch from the Tidy Cats lightweight litter to this stuff.

My biggest issue with it is that it claims to be dust free/low dust. I've been wondering if the wooden bits were made from the growth of Pinocchio's nose, because it's not true. It's a VERY dusty litter. It also sometimes clumps in my girls' beans and that's not fun for any of the parties involved. At this point, we'll probably finish what we have left and either look for something else for Princess Grumbles or go back to what we had before. But I hope it helps other delicate kitty beans. … more

My new cat (just over 1 yo) doesn't like to use her box. Thought this would help and placed in a 2nd box. She hasn't used it, but is getting better at using the box with clay. Almost like the okocat in the same room has calmed her. So hard to say. Curious to see if she will start using it. It's only been a couple of weeks. Fingers crossed.

Very light--deceptively so. When I first opened the box, I thought "this is not gonna work for my cats". It was so light, how could it hold moisture or clump? It does, and VERY well. The only drawback for me was that the box "leaked" and it is very easy for the cats to spread it around while they cover.

I switched to something more natural and a bit softer due to the clay cat litter sticking to her bottom fur, and also in her nails. This brand does have one con to it, and that is the tracking. However, everything else outweighs that one con. A box this size is MUCH easier for me to lift. A little goes a long way, the clumping is mucb better, no oder at all when I am cleaning, it's biodegradable, and much softer on a cat's paws, compared to clay litter. I know there are other styles with this brand that I will definitely look into trying! Overall I definitely recommend this brand so far.

Product is fantastic, awesome solution to all of the clay/oil based litters that our poor little kitties have had to breathe for so long. Consider a switch today. I've used many different products over the years of being owned by cats, and I am confident they too would give it a high paw. Clumps well, zero smell for multiple cat household. Some tracking but that can be mitigated with the right litter mat. Will never use anything else. However packaging from Chewy with this last order was a nightmare. Most of the litter was inside the packing box, rather than the box it comes in. There was zero packaging material to keep the box from shifting around and the litter box was broken open on one end Product is fantastic, awesome solution to all of the clay/oil based litters that our poor little kitties have had to breathe for so long.

I used to really love this litter, it does a really great job of masking odor while being safe for sensitive cat systems since it's odorless, and does an awesome job of clumping, however the past two times I purchased it's been incredibly dusty. I only purchased again because I assumed maybe it was a mishap with one box, however since I've had to fully clean my litter box to rid of the dust and return two boxes I unfortunately won't be purchasing again. Saddened since this was my favorite litter.
