I had 4 kittens & was learning all about how to care for them-they were only a lil over a month old!! Got this litter after realizing that small kittens should start off with pellets first because they can try to consume sandy litter (which they did try to do!) Immediately I came across this litter. Been using it for almost 2months now. This was a more natural & safer option for sure! The 26lb bag is soo big I couldn’t even carry it on my own at first! So worth the price for the quantity!! Also love that it’s all natural!! I feel so good knowing that. Oddly enough I really love the smell of it too lol. It definitely has an earthy aroma like many others mentioned. And it’s very easy to clean up compared to other litter- doesn’t track. It lasts a long time too! As a pregnant woman right now I usually have to end up cleaning my kittens litter boxes.. well I love that it masks the smell pretty good (when my kitties do good covering their poo) and it really does reduce the ammonia ! At first it was a little difficult to clean but then I learned that I just have to scoop out the poop-and if there’s parts that look dark (because of their urine) I scoop that out too. Then I mix the pellets up with the scooper & add a little fresh litter on top. I also scoop out the parts that break down into dirt. Then after almost two weeks you can change the whole thing! (The directions explain that a bit)I ended up giving two of my kittens to my sister once they learned to do things on their own & I sent them with this litter which they are still continuing to use for them. They love it & have never used or seen litter like this! I know it’s just litter but this is amazing litter & I plan on keeping them with this kind of litter & this brand! ***If you have small kittens & they are potty training- go with this one! So worth it & brings some peace of mind knowing it’s all from nature.. UPDATE (a several months later) ** : Now that my kitties have gotten a lil older & they are definitely a lot bigger, I had to switch them over to the quick clumping litter. I absolutely love it for them! & they cover their business a lot better now too. Honestly was easy & perfect timing to switch from the pellets to the quick clumping. They do amazing with this kind. My sisters ended up switching to regular litter for the kitties I gave them after a while because they didn’t want to keep paying this much for this kind. And they thought it didn’t mask the smell that good but they’re probably realizing the regular kind they have now doesn’t do any better and it has more harsh stuff in it. I notice such a huge difference with their litter vs mine. Mine (which is this brand-quick clumping) masks the smell alot better!! And doesn’t track as much as theirs. I definitely suggest once your kitties get a little bigger to switch from pellet to quick clumping. The price is worth it for me, my fur babies deserve the best & this is it. It took alot for me to train my kitties when they were tiny to use the pellets but I had the time & I succeeded. It was an easy breezy beautiful transition to the quick clumping kind! HeheI can tell my cats love the way the quick clumping feels on their paws, they have never given me a problem w it at all. It is truly the best litter ever.UPDATE #2 FOR ALPINE MEADOW MULTIPLE:I decided to try this instead of using the un scented single cat one that I’ve been using for a while now since I have two cats and sometimes their litter will smell & kinda goes by fast. At first I didn’t like the smell very much but now I don’t mind it at all, it actually does mask the smell wayyy better than the quick clumping single cat one with no scent! I keep liking each one I switch to more & more! I will be using this one for as long as I need to now. I think we should get hooked up after buying a certain amount since I’ve bought so many bags now😂!! This one so far is definitely lasting better since it’s for more than one kitty & anything scented is better for me even though I will miss that earthy aroma. Although I said about the last two kind, I think this one is the best for sure! We’ve come along way!! Lol

This saves me so. much. money. I sift it every other day. The spent sawdusty bits get dumped on the -poison ivy I am trying to smother. a win-win situation!

I used this as cat litter and bunny litter and it was much better for rabbits than cats. For cats it really didn’t cover the smell and didn’t do anything at all for their poops. It smelled sooooo bad. For bunnies it was perfect and absorbed everything!

To start off I have 3 cats and have tried all types of litter, both clay and pellets. Let's be honest, there is nothing good about the clay stuff so just forget it. Moving on to pellets. Before trying this brand I was using the recycled newspaper pallets and they really didn't control the odor very well so I took a gamble on this. I have to say it has amazing odor control. Over the course of a week I do not smell any cat pee. This stuff absorbs really well. Other perks is it's dust free and does not track all over the house. I also find the color to be appealing since it blends in with my floors so it's harder to notice if anything escapes the litter box. Overall peace of mind and cat approved!

Have been using Pine Pallets for my cat's litter box for a bit. I saw this, made from walnut shells and controls the smell better then the Pine Pallets. Sold, lets give it a try. Not so great, The Pine has been working great but every once in awhile, a smell lingered out from the area. After this item was used, every time the litter pan was used, the funk smell would come out and was stronger in smell.

Update: I added a photo just to give an idea of how much litter is sacrificed, even for a small area. That’s from one spot of pee from a 5 week old kitten. The initial pee spot was less than a 2in. x 2in. spot. If you catch it right away you might be able to save it from soaking to the bottom. If not it spreads out and disintegrates the litter around it in a much wider area. Because it disintegrates you can’t just get the affected litter, you end up having to take some clean litter with it. So one small pee spot filled up half of a medium-sized pet waste bag. Add another kitten on top of that and I’m basically losing half the litter box per day, and a whole bag of litter every 1 12 - 2 weeks. As the title says, necessary for their safety. But I can’t wait until they’re old enough for clumping litter lol.Original Review:I rescued a couple 5 week old strays from outside. I bought them clumping litter, but they started to eat it. Did a bit of research and found out it can become like concrete in their stomachs and block them from passing anything. So I bought a bag of these pellets to keep them safe.Overall it's a good litter. It doesn't track everywhere as bad as gravely litter (sucks when you find cat litter on your sheets and pillows), and my room doesn't smell like cat litter dust. It also blocks the urine smell really well. I can't comment on the poop since these guys haven't figured out how to bury that yet.But the major problem is when they pee it goes straight to the bottom of the box, spreads out and saturates the litter at the bottom, and then all of that litter disintegrates into a powdery substance that falls through the scoop. That means every time I go to scoop it out after they pee I end up losing about half-a-litter-box worth of clean litter along with it. In 10 days I'm already 3/4 through the 26lbs bag and am doing a full clean twice a week.At $16 it's not THAT bad of an investment just for the safety reassurance (they don't try to eat this litter). But this isn't likely something I'll keep buying once they get older and I can switch over to clumping litter.

I switched to this because sand litter just tracks so much and this one doesn’t. It also lessens the smell of the cat pee and I don’t have to add more every time I clean the litter box. In my opinion, it’s also easier to clean, I use tongs to pick out the solids and use a sifter to get the parts that have been soaked by cat pee. My cats love it and they didn’t mind the change and started using it immediately. A really good product to switch to, and I’ll keep using it!

I adore this litter. There is absolutely no pee or poo smell. It does smell a bit weird (earthy, humid), but it's better than the usual smell.

I got this for my very 1st cat, but I can tell this does not let a single bad small to get out. The only issue is that with the pee turns into sand, and makes it a bit difficult to clean, but kept the poop for over a week and there's still no smell at all

You need a sifter in order for this litter to work.I rather just scoop like normal.You get a lot for the price though which was the only upside for me. Took my cats a long time to get used to it as well just for me to have to switch to a different litter.

Cat was more content with the walnut shell litter because it did not stick between its paws. I was happier with it because there were no long trails of litter leading away from the litter box. Price wise it is comparable to the inferior clay or silicone based products. Highly recommend to give it a try and form your own obeservations.
