PURINA Yesterday's News Non Clumping Paper Cat Litter, Softer Texture Unscented Cat Litter in Recyclable Box - 26.4 lb. Bag, Not Applicable, Soft Texture

A local feral that we have been trying to work with was pregnant for the 5th time. Our patience finally paid off and we were able to get a hold of her and setup and safe area for her to have her kittens in an xlarge kennel. Once the babies were born we went right to setting up an area for them to roam in once they were reaching that stage and hopefully learn to use the bathroom. I had a large shallow box so I filled it with some of these. But sadly they did just no care for it. They continued to go on a thick tarp like sheet I had on the floor to protect carpeting in the room I had set up for them. I ended up cutting up a taller box to make it shallow for them with a opening with some regular non clumping litter and they had no problem with using it. So sadly I havent even used up the whole bag I bought of this stuff since they just dont care for it.The stuff looks like its well made, there really wasn't a scent though (rating asked about scent). I was hoping for something like maybe a cedar smell, or whatever they use for gerbil pens. Would of been nice to have some aroma but im sure these are meant to be fairly simplistic and as natural as can be. Its easier to throw away compared to litter. I always have to save a empty litter bag to refill with litter I am throwing away because the quality of trash bags just dont hold up to the clay granules. So to make sure I dont have a trash bag that ends up spilling out nasty waste all over my tile floor, I put an empty litter bag in first to scoop or poor litter into. Where as these dont have sharp edges on them so the likelihood of the trash bag tearing is less likely to happen unless you are soaking up a kids pool of water with one bag and trying to fill a trash bag with heavily soaked paper pellets. Which i hope someone isnt doing.

My male kitty has urinary problems and has already had surgery once. The vet suggested this litter because, unlike clay litter, this doesn’t have sand particles that can get into his urethra and cause blockages.I feel sooo much better knowing that the litter I have for my little guy is safe for him to use and won’t cause any future health problems.10/10 will purchase again.

This stuff really absorbs, but it has a sickly sweet scent when it combines with very pungent rabbit urine that I couldn’t tolerate. It really puffs up when it’s wet and gets very heavy. So it does its job, but probably needs to be changed every day or it gets too smelly and heavy.

Got this for my young bun and it has been working great. No messy softening or clumping into a clay-like texture upon pee absorption, unlike the stuff marketed to rabbits at your average pet store. From what I’ve read, clay-based litters are unsafe/unhealthy for rabbits; I can’t recall if what I had before this was clay based—it was whatever you find on the shelf, specifically *for rabbits* at pet stores—but it certainly at least mimicked that texture and I worried about what was in it… I switched to this based on fairly extensive research, especially with the recommendation of the Bunny Lady (a site and Youtube channel run by Amy Pratt, who affectionately brands herself with this nickname; I *also* highly recommend that site & channel as a springboard for new bunny owners to start doing their research/homework). [Disclaimer: No, I don’t know the Bunny Lady, nor have I ever corresponded with her, nor do I have any ulterior motive in promoting her; I just genuinely enjoyed her site and the wealth of easily digestible, user friendly, and clearly well researched information she offers and want to help others who may be looking for it find strong, reliable resources as well… Hence why I’d write *this* much content just for a review of… yunno… litter…Anyway, highly recommend this litter for rabbits. I’ll probably continue to research about & tweak how I do my bun’s litter so I can get it to be as efficient & environmentally sustainable & affordable as possible, but this may well be that sweet spot.

I was pleasantly surprised with this kitty litter. The best part is that you no longer have little bits of sandy cat litter all over! There definitely still are some pieces that track out of the box, but not usually too far. If you don’t clean often enough, it smells like hamster or bunny cage, but if you’re consistent with scooping the smell is minimal compared to dusty litter. I’m sad to say we stopped using this because 1. My cats randomly decided they didn’t want to pee in it anymore and 2. We are moving and no longer have a yard we can bury in. Overall I think is a great concept for the environment and works well, but only if you have easy going, non-particular feline friends :)

Es un producto excelente. Muy fácil de limpiar y dura más de una semana cada tanda de pellets. Todo se puede desechar por la taza del escusado. Muuuy ecológico. Además no se pega nada en el fondo del "arenero", por lo cual es también muy fácil limpiarlo cuando hay que cambiar todo por una nueva tanda de pellets.Otra ventaja, apenas empieza a oler ligeramente como a los 4 o 5 días (sin limpiarle nada) y un pco mal como a los 7 días. (tengo 3 gatotes).No entiendo por qué Amazon ya no lo está teniendo disponible. Ya lo habían tenido disponible a principios de 2021 y hoy, 2 de mayo 2021 veo que, nuevamente no está disponiblePor favorrrr, ¡pónganlo disponible nuevamente! en todas sus presentaciones. Sobre todo la de veintitantas libras y la de 30 libras.¡MegasuperPORFAVOR! ¡Vuélvanlo a poner disponibleeeee!Es lo mejor que he encontrado...

Most important is that it is available to purchase. So far the only non clumping product made from paper that does not have anything in it but paper rolled up into tubes that does not have ammonia blockers whatever that is or backing soda which cats cannot have as it will make them sick. These additives are not for the benefit of the cat it is for the benefit of the purchaser who obviously is either not very bright or does not care about their cat. Look it up online a cat cannot consume more than, I believe 1/10th of a teaspoon and cat clean themselves getting this product into their system. I will also not use clay as it sticks to their lungs and one of my cats died from this at a healthy 13 years old. The wheat, sawdust, corn cob or other litter products also be cleaning themselves or inhaling get into their system. This is the only product so far I will use on my cats. Purina has made another paper product from paper (flakes) which I am not sure how it becomes clumping unless it is because of the flake like texture. It is firstly extremely expensive approx 20 lbs for $30+ dollars. They say it goes a longer way. I do not believe it. As this product I am buying now when I use it is not 3x less use than clumping litter but my house does not small from cat, urine, poo or anything else cat like. I use a lot of this litter as you can see by my order as I am only allowed to order from Amazon 5 bags at a time every 7-8 days. I thank you for your service and hope you can knock some sense into Purina for giving me a hard time ordering this product and over pricing their new unaffordable flake like product.

Just to give you some specifications: I live in an one bedroom apartment with my partner and our 3 furry friends. We only have space for one litter box, unfortunately (and luckily our cats share it without any issue) and so litter duty is quite important, in our home, otherwise it smells horrible, real quick!I've tried so many litter brands, always looking for clay-litter alternatives. Pretty Litter, BoxieCat, PetSafe and Catit are some of the brand names I've tried.Purina's litter is the big winner for our cats and here's why:While we try to clean the litter every day, sometimes, life gets in the way and it takes 2-3 days before it gets done. The litter box is situated in the bathroom, the smallest space in the apartment and even with 3 cats, on the days that the cleaning has been forgotten, the litter doesn't stink. Unless one of the cats just got their business done, it's usually pretty smell-free.One of the cats is also pretty picky and doesn't like the hardness of wood shavings, yet it hasn't had any problem with this litter, even though it's the original texture (a softer texture exists if needed).The clean up is pretty easy and without a mess. There's a bit of dust but nothing as toxic as clay or even silica gel/crystal.I couldn't recommend this litter enough. It's a life saver when you don't want the whole house smelling like cat urine/excrements.

Will not buy again, there were many versions I chose the one that looks like shredded paper and it says clumping. First of all it clumps but almost falls apart when you go to scoop it up. Barely fits through my scoop, and I have a pretty open metal scoop with wide slots. I clean it every day but still it’s such a hassle to sift, I think from now on I’ll use less each time and just dump it all after 2 days. I originally got this litter to lower the amount of tracking my cat was doing and it does help a little in that regard. All in all NOT worth it, find something else.

Not only is this litter much better for the environment, it’s also a lot better for the health of the animals and people in the home. First of all, there’s no dust and pieces of dirty clay litter everywhere, it also does not have that gross litter smell! Even when my cat does her business, it’s easy to clean and doesn’t continuously smell like ammonia. I recommend this over everything - also, less chance of her developing a respiratory infection from the regular clay litter (which is also toxic to pregnant women and others, so why would I be okay with my little furry family member using that?!). 10/10!
