Ultra Clumping Micro Crystals Cat Litter – Dust Free, Soft on Paws, Fragrance Free – 5 Lbs.

Works Well, but the price …
THE LITTERI love that this litter makes my bathroom smell better. I can remove the clumps usually pretty easily,though they do stick to the pan or liner. If you use the pan without a liner, the product will adhere to the box, and takes a lot of work to get it out. I do not recommend using this without a liner. Though I don’t end up with a smelly slushy box by the end of a month, I am going through more litter than I did before, and now they are raising the prices. I have used 3 bags already since I ordered them. I purchased 1 bag from another source on May 21st, and two more bags on May 25 because you have to replenish the amount scooped out in clumps.I rated 4 instead of 5 on the “easy to clean” category, because you HAVE to use a liner if you want it to be easier to clean. If your cat’s nails are sharp and go through the liner, you may have to deal with some of the silica and urine getting underneath onto the Box itself and getting stuck there. In that case, you will still have to deal with some scraping and may need to remove the liner with the clean litter in it first to do it. Still , it wasn’t that bad. It happened to me, and I just carefully lifted the liner with the clean litter in it, set it to the side to clean the box, and then replaced the torn liner, carefully lifted the prev one that had clean litter in it, and poured it into the new liner.You NEED to scoop it every day. For me, it’s multiple times a day. How clean the box is seems to help cut down on how much of it ends up outside the box. Cat’s don’t like going in dirty boxes. Forcing them to do that will produce more mess, because they will try to stand on the edges of the box, or have to dig more, etc.I do generally have to sweep in front of and at the sides of the box, but at least I am not stepping on sharp pieces of crystal every time I go into the bathroom (the only place we have where keeping a box makes any sense.)THE PRICEI previously paid $28 for two 8 lb bags of litter for ONE cat every month using a name brand larger crystal litter for $16 lbs and I already thought that was steep. Now I have to use 10 lbs of the finer scoopable one every two weeks, and the price just bumped up to $11 for 5 lbs. At this rate I will be spending $44 dollars a month on litter alone! So I do like the litter better than what I used to use, but I hate the price. I worked out how much per pound this litter is compared to the already expensive one I was using before. Keep in mind I have to use more of this one too. The expensive name brand litter I was using costs about $1.75 per pound. This litter is $2.20per pound. I think the price stinks, especially since I have to use twice as much per month as the other litter. Not happy at all with the price. Silica is Silica. I already thought the $1.75 a pound was too much, as I have to use TWO bags for one cat per month. The line that one bag lasts a month with one cat is just not true.Also, their instructions to dump the whole box of litter every month? NO WAY, especially not at these prices! The litter stays very clean when you can scoop out the large clumps and any small wet bits that clump together. There is no reason to dump it all out after a month other than for them to make more money.

Good litter option
This cat litter is great. It is easy to scoop and keeps the smell controlled for days (for one cat). It absorbs really well and the color makes it easy to see where you need to scoop. It is fairly affordable. We use one and a half bags at first in our extra large cat box, and add the other half in mid month to freshen a bit. The only thing I would say is the texture is small so the cat tracks some of it out, more so than other large textured litters. Overall though, good product.

Horrible. Rock hard.
Worst clumping cat litter I’ve ever used. It turns rock hard and is almost impossible to scrape out of the litter box. It was fine with masking the scent but no better than fresh step.

Una bolsa dura un mes para un gato. Cero olores y fácil de limpiar.

Mi gatita tiene alergia al polvo y al sol pensé que este producto le ayudaría porque había visto recomendaciones por no producir polvo, ni malos olores y compactar bien. Pero no fue así es costosa y sí hace mucho polvo y tiene gránulos muy filosos que pueden lastimar las patitas del gato. También decían que la pipí se evaporaba y sólo quedaba recoger las eses fecales pero no se compacta y ahí permanece. También se les queda muchos residuos en las patitas cada vez que salen de su arenero. Y si las pisas truenan mucho. Esa es opinión y lo que he visto con el uso de éste producto. Buscaré otra opción. Gracias!
