Questions & Answers

4 Customer Questions

I see where someone already asked this, but, I have to be sure. I don't see anywhere in the details of this product that it says it's unscented. My cats get very sickly if there's any type of perfumed scent in it. Would like to hear from users of this. Thanks!

Answer by Chewy • Sep 30, 2018
This litter uses Tidy Lock ammonia blocker for odor control instead of heavy fragrances.

Is this litter unscented?

Answer by Chewy • Mar 23, 2024
This is a scented litter.

Is there a version of the 17 lb that is in the pail? I need to buy the pail, I can't physically handle the box. Why did they change it?

Answer by Chewy • Nov 04, 2019
This litter has (2) options to chose from: 8.5 pound jug or the 17 pound box.

Is this dust free?

Answer by Chewy • May 22, 2019
This litter is a low-dust formula that helps relieve allergy symptoms and limits tracking for minimal mess.

Really light weight and minimal plastic waste

What makes me the happiest- the light weight box so I don't struggle carrying it upstairs. The cardboard box with plastic bag inside that helps with the recycling

What makes me the happiest- the light weight box so I don't struggle carrying it upstairs. The cardboard box with plastic bag inside that helps with the recycling and easy to reuse the bag, no plastic jug. The light scent and good ordor control that lets me go a little longer on scooping. It really does make life better at our house with 3 cats.

Tracking liter everywhere.

Something has changed from manufacturer, the liter has big chunks of white Confetti that looks as though when going thru grinding mix these particles do not get grind up. These particles are tracked all thru the house. We do have 2 stop liter tracking rugs in front of boxes. Will need to find different liter. Been buying these brand for years.

Doesn't work like it used to

No longer the higher quality litter I'm willing to pay more for. I've used Tidy Cats for decades - all of the versions seem to now have the same problems. Doesn't

No longer the higher quality litter I'm willing to pay more for. I've used Tidy Cats for decades - all of the versions seem to now have the same problems. Doesn't handle the smell well, allows the urine to flow down to the bottom of the litter box instead of quickly clumping. When I scoop, the clump may or may not stick together. And I routinely have 3-4" of litter in the box. You can only use so much cheap filler - and eventually you lose your customers for poor performance just to increase profit. Short term thinking. I'll be changing brands.

Too Strong Perfume!

I bought this thinking of was buying what I usually get. I didn't see anything on the box that said scented. I failed to notice on the order that said scented

I bought this thinking of was buying what I usually get. I didn't see anything on the box that said scented. I failed to notice on the order that said scented. Because I had no litter left I opened the box and the perfume is so strong and the cat's room is the greenhouse. So there is some ventilation but my sinus were stinging and the cats have a far more sensitive nose than humans. I doubt they will use the litter box because of the strong smell. Big mistake!! Read order more carefully!!

The worst litter ever

I had high hopes but this litter is by far the dustiest garble ever and it trajcs like mid. It is light weight and clumps but the dust is unbelievable.

Light weight litter is so much easier to deal with.

I love this product, just wish it was sold in a sustainable packaging such as paper bag.

Works great!

I had to switch to a lighter litter due to my MS and Tidy Cats has been a great switch. The jug is so much easier to lift and pour and I don't have to sacrifice

I had to switch to a lighter litter due to my MS and Tidy Cats has been a great switch. The jug is so much easier to lift and pour and I don't have to sacrifice performance for convenience. It clumps really well, controls odors effectively, and keeps the litter box fresh even in a multi cat household. I’m so grateful for a product that makes my daily routine easier without compromising on quality. I wish the price were more in line with normal litter, but it does a great job.

I'm fragrance sensitive and I have been using this product for years. Works very well for my kitty and me.
