Yesterday's News Softer Texture Unscented Non-Clumping Paper Cat Litter

This is SO much better than scoop brands. Much less scooping as the urine goes to he bottom. Even though I scoop once a day (the hard stuff), I still change the box and liner about every eight days as I have large adult cats. I have four boxes. With the other kind, I was scooping up dry and wet leavings three times a day and cleaning up the tracking. And, Yesterdays news is healthier for the cats!!

I like to do whatever I can to recycle and try my best to use natural products like Yesterday's News or Feline Pine. My 10 yr. old, Logan has no problem with this; Also, I find I can use a little less than with Feline Pine, tho' I still use both.

I originally was using this for my pet rats litter boxes (it works great for them too!). Then a mama cat got hit by a car near my house and I ended up taking in her 2-3week old kittens. Once they turned 4 weeks old it was time to start litter training and this was all I had, they took to it like pros! I absolutely will continue to use this litter not only for our new kittens, but for my pet rats as well :)

My kitten was exposed to litter for the first time when he moved in with me and he thought the clay Tidy Cats litter was tasty. Obviously having a tiny kitten eat litter is not healthy. I switched out to this litter as a safer alternative. While he still does play with it, and chew on the clean pieces, he eats much less of it. I do change out his entire tiny litter box every day so I cannot speak to odor control.

I was happy to see that Yesterday's News has come out with this "softer" version. I like the fact that this litter is recycled and dustfree, but I have found the original to be too hard for the young kittens I foster. I compared this softer version to OkoKat non-clumping litter and still found OkoKat to be much easier for my kittens to manage. It's also paper based, and in addition is white making it easier to spot the areas that need attention.

I really wanted this litter to work because we have so much waste & pollution in this world but my female cat won't go in the box with this litter and my male cats urine makes my house smell like ammonia soaked newspaper. Ugh! Your cats might love it and it might work out fine in your home. Don't let me be the one who influences you not to buy it, I just wanted to mention my experience and warn you that it' can be 'complicated'. I think it's still a great idea to recycle & upcycle everything we can. So try it, it might work out for you.

We bought this for our kitten to be on the safe side. Knowing that regular litters could do a kitten harm. We got him at 4 weeks. Yes, you do have to change it a little more frequently. It is easy to find the little bombs and scoop them out. I love that it is used out of recycled newspaper. Unscented is our choice always.

I am not able to lift a 26 lb bag. I hope you will be offering the 13.2 lb size again. It was not available on my last order

I purchased this litter after reading recommendations related to using it for cats who have been spayed/neutered, basically it doesn’t stick to healing incisions. This is definitely true and it worked perfectly for that purpose. That said, I thought scooping it was a bit messy (and finishing for little poop nuggets was a pain!) and did not think it controlled the litter box smells that well at all. I’d recommend it for the purpose of post-op usage, but we went right back to our normal litter once everyone was healed.

my cats didn't like walking on such big pieces of litter. i also didn't like the litter because there were no scoopers that allowed just the litter to fall through but, held back any urine or poops so scooping was non-existing! what a waste (no pun intended) and i had to throw away the bag of unused litter as well as the litter i put in the kitty litter boxes.
