Have you tried Pretty Litter? What did you think of it? We want to hear about your experience!
It was terrible for a cat with a very stinky litter box. This is also a cat that only Everclean litter and one other litter controlled the smell. That was one smelly cat! I've never had another cat that bad, I have 3 cats now and can use other litters with no issue.
I got this brand before seeing this video for the reason that my two year old cat was having issues with a long lasting UTI and wanted to monitor his urine with the color system. I discovered that I hated pretty litter for the reason that it is the WORST if you want a low tracking litter. Seconds after use, the cat had dragged litter pieces all throughout my apartment even with a gorilla-mat for litter catching. I am constantly CONSTANTLY sweeping multiple times a day now and have to wear slippers through the house because I’m always finding granules the minute the cat exits the covered litter box. Once the cats dirty this litter I’ve had for a couple weeks I’m never going back to it. Never had this issue with other litters
@@DevMackenzie Have you checked your cat for kidney issues? That can increase the frequency of UTIs
Devon Zach, trails of litter, huh? That’s important information. Thanks.
cheea5 yes i spent 2k on him for all testing under the sun and he is free and clear of any abnormalities of his organs.. thank goodness for pet insurance.
If you don’t want to worry about a subscription, Target sells this litter!
girl ur the best for this comment
Thank you
@@aimeeisnotacat and is a 2 month supply for 1 cat
Not mine
Ooh! Good to know!! Thank you!!!
I don’t own cats & don’t know how I got here but I’ve ended up watching several of your vids😂
Why lol
You too?!!!
@@cyranonow Oh, you've never been down a CZcams rabbit hole before....one day!...LOL
@@MyFavouriteStation You mean look at random videos lol, never done that before 🤥
no one care
I have been using PrettyLitter for 3 months. I was cleaning out the solids today. When stirring the litter, I found blue green coloring and the colored litter was clumpy. I FREAKED out. I did some googling and found on the PL website that if the urine sits at the bottom without getting stirred, it will turn that off color and consistency! I have a litter box liner inside my cats top entry box, so the stirring sometimes doesn’t always mix. Just to be clear; When the blue-green color also looks like a slushy texture almost, that’s the non stirred litter look you’ll find. Thankfully, it was a normal thing. Nothing wrong with my tortie, Buyo. Wanted to pass that along as some helpful info for anyone that may need it.🙂
Yes, great info! I've experienced that, too.
@@AllAboutCatsYT happy to hear your babies are healthy to.😌

I just encountered this and was searching for answers
This is our first month trying it. I have a sensitive nose (my family literally thinks I'm psychic because I can smell things, like if they snuck a candy bar or if they changed their sheets weekly or took a shower, etc.... lol I just let them keep thinking it, but pretty much it's not psychic, I can just smell things really good)... well, the Pretty Litter is the first cat litter where I rarely smell anything at all (I've only caught the faintest scent of poop 2 or 3 times this month while she was actually pooping, but it goes away when she covers it up). And no one else in the house (with a normal sense of smell) smells anything at all.
Yesss!!! I am just like you!! I can smell everything! And my family thinks I’m nuts because I can smell things they can’t smell. This was the only litter that passed my nose test haha so happy to hear I’m not the only one with a super sensitive nose :)
I can smell a lie 👃🏻
@@whoopeeewand Hah I see what you did there.
This was not my experience at all. After a week the litter box is so rank with smells I'm gagging when I'm scooping and stirring, which I do at a minimum every other day, mostly it's a daily thing.
It seems like a good product to use intermittently to check your kitties. I may pick up a bag today and use it the first week of each month just to be sure that they are A-Okay on a regular basis.
I'm looking just to use it to check for a uti right now.. not sure I'd use it long term but if your concerned it seems much cheaper than a vet visit
At this point, your videos are basically raising my cat
lol ditto
I have used Pretty Litter for several years and love it. The convenience is great. It shows up on my doorstep once a month, so no trips to the grocery store. It also made a big difference when it alerted me to my new rescue cat's UTI. Finally, the company's customer service is excellent. Their East Coast fulfillment center accidentally sent me the wrong product once and PL overnighted a replacement of the right product. They earned my loyalty.
If you love walks on sandy beaches, this is the litter for you. Our litter box is on white floor, where you can’t SEE the litter scatter, but you can hear the crunch-crunch-crunch all over any non-carpeted area of the house. I’ve been sweeping twice a day. It’s even on our bed. 🤨 The odor control is great the first week or two, but it doesn’t last nearly a month.
That’s makes sense… thank you!
On your bed from kitties paws!
thank you!
100% agreed
I totally agree. It is supposed to be cleaner than standard litter but it isn’t. It is very dusty too.
I really like your reviews. They are thorough and straight to the point. I wish this litter was bigger in size that would last longer than one month.
Actually one bag last two months she just has two litter boxes so it lasted a month
@@marisol319 that’s not at all what she said. She said it lasted a couple weeks because she had 2 cats…. 1 bag lasts 1 month per cat.
@@marisol319 It says on the bag that one bag lasts 2 months. Which is BS from my testing. One bag gets me 2 proper tray fills for a normal sized litter box. And after a week the odor is so strong I start gagging when I'm scooping and stirring. And that's from my now 3 month old kitten using the box. One bag only lasts 2 weeks from my testing.
@@nbeaudoi2837 exactly? Two cats two litter boxes ? I don’t really see the point of your comment 😂 but it literally says on the bag that it’s for 2 months
@@marisol319 1 bag doesn’t last 2 months lol no chance
I clean my cat's litter box morning, noon, and night. I don't like the idea of my cat stepping into urine absorbed silica for one month everyday. The cleanup and dust don't seem to be really that much different then the litter I use. Pretty Litter costs 3 times as much as the Costco brand Scoop Away (42lb bag for $9.95 on sale every 3 months). This lasts six weeks for one cat. The color indicator is nice but not worth the cost increase IMO.
I use the tidy cat breeze system for my two cats with the xl litter box. Out of everything on the market ..it has been the best system.
The litter was blue and my cat had a uti. It really helps to see the color
Thanks for sharing your experience, Abby. Glad to hear that the Pretty Litter helped you out!
Did it turn blue right away? What I’m finding is that it changes 12 hours later instead of instantly. Is it supposed to change instantly?
I just bought 2 bags from Target to try. I have 4 cats. So far so good. Hardly any odor compared to regular cat litter. Poop is easy to scoop out. My fur babies were confused at first and played with it. Lol. One bad thing though. My cats make a bigger mess on floor than with other litter. Overall, good product. Thanks for the review.
How long does 2 bags last you? I have 3 cats
Try the wood pellets...its amazing super cheap. I can find videos onyoutube
@@faith424 only good if your cat likes it though! i personally don't because, despite being super affordable, with a male cat, i like being able to make sure i can tell he is peeing regularly, so i need something that makes it impossible to miss LOL
Do you have an update for how well it’s worked for you? My partner has 4 cats and was looking into getting this litter
@@jamboi6349 Hi there. It works good. I stopped using it but it does work good. I have 4 cats too. The reason I stopped using it is because I like throwing out the cat litter every 3-4 days. With Pretty Litter I couldn’t do that. But yes it works pretty good. It’s expensive but worth the try.
Thanks for reviewing this litter, i have been eyeballing the ads for a minute now
Gotta love when you said.... "when the litter looked like well buttered grits" it was time to change it.... 😂 Grits... too cute!
First time seeing your channel, I REALLY appreciated the scientific approach. Made things really easy to follow along.
Thank you! Hope you stick around. :)
Wow what an in-depth review thank you! I subscribed ❤
Excellent review! You answered all the questions I had about this litter. Thank you !
Thank you so much for doing these videos!!
Finally the color changing thing makes sense to me. Thank you!!
I appreciated and loved this instructional video. Good Job and love the content. 💕💕💕
Thank you for this review!! I saw pretty litter and wanted to learn more about it so thank you very helpful!!
Thank you! This content helps me a lot. Please keep posting and don't get discouraged by what other people say!
Very professional and intelligent review. Thank you.
Thank for your reviews... They help.
Thank you for doing the experiment!
Thanks for informative videos Mallory
Thanks ! That was a complete review, quite a good one !
I love that pillow in the background, btw.
I was thinking of trying this new litter out. Thank you for your review.
very helpful review, thanks!!!
Thanks for this review. Very straight forward and good to know it does actually seem to last the month
I must say your my most watched videos on cats . You got one of the most calming voices I know thank you so much. .. I think I might try it .
Thank you for clarifying about amorphous sylica dust! I have wondered about the difference between the two & this helped 😊 I really like crystal litter & have been using one that my cats seem to like, but I worry it's not gentle enough on their paws, though they still use it. Thank you for such an extensive review! So informative.
What brand are you using?
Hey Holly, it's an interesting distinction, isn't it? I'm still cautious about amorphous silica dust as it hasn't been studied as heavily as crystalline silica and we can't rule out long-term harmful effects, but it is good to be informed. Glad you and your kitties like crystal litter, though I can understand the concern about paw-feel. Good luck with everything!
Thank you for this video!
I really appreciate you reviewing Pretty Litter and answering several questions that I had. I also love the fact that you showed what the litter looked like up-close before and after use. Your video was very informative. Thanks so much! You saved me time and money with your review :)
Great review...not just you talking, but actually showing the litter and how it works. Thanks!
This just popped up in my recommended. Thank you for this review! I’ve had this pushed into my ads on FB and other places, so I’m glad to have seen someone test this out. I’ve been quite curious to try it, but that piece is a bit steep. But I’ll keep it in mind if I think it would be helpful for my cats. Thank you!
Thank you!! Have a good one.
Excelente reseña. Muy informativa y apegada incluso al método científico experimental.
Saludos.
Have been using Pretty Litter foe over 5 years and my cat loves it. I like it too. Never any accidents. I could get it at my local stores with delivery from some. Now I am supposed to get it from the PrettyLitter store only for a higher pric. Haven't decided yet what I do but I am not happy with the way Pretty Litter has suddenly decided to make it more expensive.
Thanks for the information about this. Keep up the great content on this channel.
Thank you, Joe!
Thanks for your honesty! Much appreciated
You're welcome.
Pretty litter has been one the best litters I have ever had and it’s only one my cat has liked and made my cat actually confident with their litter box. There is also almost zero smell of at all, very impressive litter.
It’s 6am, but I’ve been seeing commercials on this litter all over and would genuinely like to try it with my cats, thanks for the quality review will be trying this out 😌
Great video, very informative
VERY helpful video! TFS
Love this litter. Never had the dust issue but I pour it into the box with the bag closer to the box than you did. I would also recommend a liner bag for super easy clean up when changing it. I find it really lasts about 3 weeks not 4 but definitely worth it. It is super easy to just add an extra bag every so often or shorten schedule of when you receive it.
VERY helpful. Thank you!
Thank you. We are considering the change and were looking for insights, such as yours.
Thank you so much for this detailed review!! I only see new and unused litter on their Instagram but never what the litter looks like when the cats been using it for a while. Thanks for taking your time to review this for us. I look forward to your other videos!!!
Glad to hear that it was helpful!
I’m not a huge commenter, but if anyone has struggled with inappropriate toileting (like we have) pretty litter has been so worth it.
I have an elderly cat who got into very bad restroom habits, toileting on any and everything but the litter box. No health issues, but we just could not break this habit.. I washed out the clay litter from her litter box and decided to splurge and try Pretty Litter.. because the cost of dry cleaning, upholstery cleaning and the stress of not knowing where she would go next was just too much..
Within one week not only was she using the Pretty litter as appropriate, her personality had also drastically changed. She is out and about more.. and less skittish. The cost is higher, but I will say 30 days for one kitty isn’t terrible, and scooping daily doesn’t even feel like a nuisance when it is so easy.
I cant tell you why any of this happened, but Pretty Litter has really improved my life and that of my older little princess Cora. 🐈⬛
thanks for reviewing. I think I'll try it.
I didn't know you already had a review of pretty litter on the channel my bad and thank you!
Helpful. Thank you.
Amazing, absolutely positively brilliant, I'm permanently and deeply impressed by this brilliant application of chemistry..
I’ll save you some money. My wife and I have three cats. I say my wife and I because my two girls claim the other two, but don’t feed them or clean the box. We got pretty litter because they wanted a more light weight litter so it’s not so heavy to take out. That’s fine. But being 12 and 11 years old, they both forget to clean it out for days on end. Pretty litter isn’t bad, it’s just that the urine will settle at the bottom and sit. It stinks. Needless to say, we switched to clump n seal and can’t even tell we have cats. No smell at all.
This was so helpful
My cats love this litter. I put their regular litter box next to the box with pretty litter and they picked pretty litter everytime. I am a fan of pretty litter. It's easy to change the litter box too, it's much lighter. The urine smell is decreased almost 100 percent. I love this litter so much.
That’s a great idea. That what I plan to do next time I buy regular litter
Are you in the US - what is the cost - I'm in Canada so probably too expensive for me - thx
been waiting for this one
I wasn't huge on spending that amount on litter, but it has helped us a lot. We wouldn't have noticed at all that our cat was dehydrated (we have 2, and he was drinking water, but one was not drinking enough), and when we went to the vet, they didn't find any crystals, but advised us to provide him saline fluids for 6 weeks. I wish I could have something similar without that much money, but I can't. The odor control is fine. For us, with 2 litter boxes for 2 cats, the litter seems to last for 3 weeks. We can push it to 4, but I would prefer a bit more quantity.
My boyfriend keeps telling me to have our cats switch to this litter. I love the idea of it but I'm not huge on the dust & cost. I switched to Pioneer Pet SmartCat Grass litter since watching your video reviewing other cat litters & it has been super good.
SmartCat is fantastic! I'm glad you're liking it so far.
Seriously try the pine wood pellets..no urine smell. Amazing. Barely any dust. Smells like saw dust its awesome
I got tired of the saw dust smell after using it for two years. Switched to PL and I definitely didn’t miss the way litter tracks lol
Pine litter comes big and my cat can hardly use it am I supposed to blend the stuff before I use
I have been using it for a couple months now because I have an older indoor cat and I wanted to monitor his health. He loves the Pretty Litter. I had some shipping issues so had to buy a bag from the grocery store and he HATED it. I was so happy when the litter finally arrived. And it really does keep ANY odor away. I won't buy anything else. Hopefully the shipping delays have been corrected.
Thanks for this video! People have been recommending Pretty Litter to me for the help with smell, and I have been a little weary of its subscription based style, but this helped me see it may be worth it 😊
Target sells it
Great review, thanks...I'll use your link.👍🏻
Awesome, thank you!
Thank you for putting this very descriptive video out for all of us cat lovers to see.
Of course! Thank you for stopping by.
I've been using Pretty Litter for about 6 months. I have three cats but only need two bags a month, I keep it very clean.
It is expensive, but I really like it and most importantly my cats like it.
2 bags lasts for a month for 3 cats?
i have 2 cats & i was wondering how many bags i would need. i know it says a whole bag isn’t needed if you only have one cat (& half will do) but should i use a whole bag for 2 cats or 2 bags for 2 cats?
Love the video! It's exactly what I needed to see to make my decision. I'm going to check out a few more before I subscribe to your channel.
I have had cats all my life , particularly male cats and I will tell anyone what I told my extremely frugal fiancee. Sure cat food and the litter may be expensive but which would you rather spend the money on? $120 a month on quality products or a random reoccurring $300-1200 vet bill?
I think that this pretty letter idea is brilliant and wish they would have came out with it sooner. It gives you a chance to change your cat's food or increase water intake before taking your cat to the vet for an expensive bill that could have been avoided just by adding another bowl of water around the house.
Thanks again!
Thanks for making a video regarding the special litter. I was wondering how it works.
So glad it helped to answer some of your questions!
So glad you reviewed this. My cat is 16 and has had a lot of UTIs
How do you treat her UTI?
Amazing VIDEO!
“Well buttered grits” nooooo 😂
Greta video thank you! Where is your litter box from?
Love love the pretty litter. I've been using it for over a year. I have 3 cats and do the 4 bag a month subscription. 69$ is well worth it to have an extra bag to refresh the boxes before switch out. Thank you for your honesty and for all the hard work you put into your videos!!!!!
So glad you're happy with Pretty Litter! Thanks for the kind comment and support!
Planning on getting my first cat of my adult life this year and you guys have been an amazing resource!!! Keep it up and thanks for all you do 💕😻
Thank you, Anna! This is an exciting time and I'm so glad we've been a helpful resource for you!
Please adopt an adult cat! through my entire life ive had cats, Kittens adopted a few weeks from birth, kittens who were born in the house i still live in 4 years ago. young juvenile cats we have adopted through rescue, and adult cats we have adopted through rescue organizations. Currently I love and spoil three adult cats, one born in this very house 4 years ago, one adopted in his adulthood (3-4years) and the mother of the young one rescued from the streets preggers 4 years ago (she was around 1-2 years old when rescued.) they are approx 4 years, 6 years, and 12years old. my family has raised multiple liters of kittens trust me just because you "adopted it as a kitten" wont mean itll develop any special bond towards you. My cat whom was born in the same house i live in and has had a perfect spoiled indoor life her entire life is the least affectionate and bonded cat. and my 12 year old who I adopted as an adult is significantly my most affectionate cat, he is the biggest love bug in the world. But beyond that he has a special bond with me and is obsessed with me. and this is a cat who lived on the streets for potentially multiple years. when we adopted him we adopted another adult cat who was just stupid loveable towards anything that was alive, seriously you could toss this cat 10 feet in the air and catch it and it would trust you 100% and not lay a claw on you. sadly a window screen was broken and he got outside without our notice and we found his body in our yard due to native wildlife (mountain lions).... (outdoor cats are super likely to have an early death)... anyways interesting enough our most lovable amazing pet cats have been adopted as adults, I personally chalk this up to the fact you can gauge an adult cats personality at the adoption center and pick the perfect one. trust me when i say this because it is a fact, KITTENS DONT HAVE FULL PERSONALITY. if you adopt a lovable kitten it may not be a lovable adult cat, and if you adopt a mean scared kitten it might be the biggest love bug on earth as an adult. The determining factor here is simply the cats personality, not how you raise it. and the fact is a cat wont develop the personality you'll live with 95% of its life until its an adult and spayed/neutered. so when you adopt a cat whose personality you connect with that's already spayed/neutered and an adult you are promised a lovable perfect pet cat. but when you adopt a kitten you are absolutely taking a gamble on its personality. i can confirm it has nothing to do with the way the cat was raised. The cat who we rescued personally was abused and neglected and preggers and she is sweet as peas but just not that crazy about people. but her daughter who lived the dream life for cats perfect diet and enrichment with a loveable home her entire life from the second she was born does not like people at all. so trust me... if you want that dope lovable cat who will sit on your lap while you watch youtube videos and purr in your ear at night, adopt an adult cat who is already a love bug and needs a home. rescues are full of them...... the kittens will find homes 100%, its the adults who need adoption. I know personally cats are an absolute must in my life, and the sad reality is i will outlive my cats... :' c ... but when that happens i will definitely never adopt another kitten, not that it isnt fulfilling to own cats who dont care about you (i have 2). but its seriously the most amazing thing in the world when you find that cat who truly loves you and loves people. dont we all want a snuggle bug cat. when i was younger in highschool we adopted kittens and none of them were as good of companions as the adult cats I adopted. Everybody wants a kitten, the kittens get adopted first. most of the time when a person or family decides to adopt a cat they get a freaking kitten. I hate it, but its how the world works. so skip the kitten and find a love bug at your local humane society or shelter.
and beyond that ive had another 4 cats in my childhood with my parents. but i wont count that towards my experience because i was a kid. for the others its in my adulthood.
also... adult cats adopted via adoption centers are basically always litter trained, spayed/neutered, and confirmed healthy. Its such a good choice for every reason... we have even unknowingly adopted a kitten who had a genetic asthma problem, intense respiratory issues. was very hard for us to deal with, this wouldn't have been a thing if we didn't opt for the "cute newborn kitten" and instead got a healthy adult cat. not that we didn't do everything for her and love her, but regardless nobody wants that, not fun to hear a cat suffer to breathe. (let me note this "newborn kitten" wasnt adopted to early or anything, she was the ideal adoption age and size.)
I saw they have this product at Target now. I’m sold, definitely going to go and buy a bag when my current litter is finished.
Thank you for the review!

Hi! Where did you get the litter box? Thanks for such a detailed review!
thanks so much
People with multiple cats could definitely not afford this litter. If the 1 bag per cat thing is true I would need to buy 8 bags a month! I understand it's an amazing litter though!
I have 8 cats 😆
@@averiwatkins8163 Do you use pretty litter? Haha!
@@shannonrachelrafuse1950 no!! I definitely couldn't afford it! I use walmart brand 😂
I too have 🐈⬛ 🐈 🐈⬛ 🐈 🐈⬛ 🐈 🐈⬛ 🐈 - I use ‘Arm & Hammer Platinum Cloud Control’ 37 pound box for $28.99 & free shipping from Chewy & Amazon. Was tired of ALL THE DUST from other litters & spouse is prone to sinus infections.
📦📦 - yes 2 boxes lasts 1 month for 9 litter trays after the initial set up. Our litter gets cleaned twice a day; once a week I sprinkle ‘Arm & Hammer FRESH SENSATIONS Carpet Odor Eliminator’ (Island Breeze) ONE BOX 16.3 OZ ($1 at Dollar Tree) DIVIDED among the 9 litter boxes!!! Our tribe adjusted easily to this & litter is no longer problematic. 🙀🙀🙀
I have 5 cats and use it but I also have the litter robot .-. So it cleans it after every use
We've been using this litter now for a week and a half, and it does clump, which confused us, so just a heads up to others. Also I would do some research about the problems of inhaling silica dust which does come up when you do the litter, it is a small amount. The other thing is, the litter is so fine, that it tracks all throughout the house and doesnt fall as easily from the fur between the spaces between their toenails. You are supposed to swirl the litter around so that the cat pee evaporates, what actually ends up happening is that it breaks into smaller dime size clumps and then you will need to smash those up quite a bit. There is no smell, if anything it might smell like vanilla....but barely.
Thank you for mentioning this!
I had to put my sweet girl in the hospital today with a severe UTI. After paying $3,000 for hospitalization and treatment, the cost of this litter seems really reasonable if it will help keep my Mary Kitty from getting this sick again. Just two days ago, she was busy killing mice in the kitchen and attacking the Christmas Tree. This morning, she was at death's door. Cats are so good at hiding illness, and she is not a young kitty anymore so, if this helps me keep her healthy, I'll gladly pay the extra cost.
Oh no!!! How is your sweet kitty doing?
@@mspears_bobobuddytheseniorcat She is improving slowly. Turns out she has Hyperthyroid disease, that was masking her kidney infection. So, she will be on meds for the rest of her little life. But, I am so grateful she is still with us. She loves her new litter and it is just so much cleaner and more hygienic than her old clumping litter. Anything to keep bacteria from sneaking into her little lady parts is good and the fact that this litter does not stick to her and is so much drier than clumping litter has got to help keep her cleaner. Thanks for your concern!
I've tested out the pretty litter and though it has less dust, I've seen no benefits to my cat. He's actually started having sneezing fits that are concerning me. I also ordered this not realizing it was a six month subscription (which was sneaky of the company). Also with the exchange rate in Canada, it cost a lot more than advertised. The second box cost $42. I cancelled my subscription and then a week later I received another box and another charge on my credit card! Also, one box can last a lot longer than one month. They suggest changing it monthly because that's way more profitable. I've had the same bag of pretty litter in for six weeks and it seems fine. So I don't really like how this company operates. And then you can only get a refund within the 30 day period after initial ordering - that's as long as a bag lasts so really you should get an extra week to decide.
Great information! I would have liked to see a closer view of the colors
Ah, good point. You might be able to see a little better in our updated video for 2022: czcams.com/video/p5lcjQHkWyQ/video.html
Due to recent events I'm going to have to start using pretty litter. Cat had to be rushed to the cat for a blockage so hopefully this will help me detect problems before it gets so serious....glad to know it lives up to its reputation...
Hope that cat helped your cat
I have seen blue and green in my litter but the vet says no infection. All in all though I love this litter and have used it for years! This is the only one I have EVER used that almost entirely eliminates smell. The box is within 5 ft of my bed so that is important. I use 3 bags a month f or 2 large cats. I also found that since it lasts longer than other litters I buy less often so the price evens out. I can also skip or extend my next shipment up to 3 months i think is the limit for skipping and frequency.
My cat has lower Feline urinary track disorder so this litter makes me much less anxious about checking on her properly. I now know exactly what’s going on
First off…Thank you. I’m glad I found you. I’ve looked on your website and can’t find that litter box you are using in this video. I like the top entry feature.
Can you tell me what it is or put a link to that product? It seems like a much better option than the dome I’m using for guy that pees upward.
I found the odor control to be sub par to even clay litters. I don't know about other silica based litters (pretty litter says this isn't silica based btw).
I use animal bedding (wood pellets from the farm supply) I spray them with water and they expand 3-4x in size. $5 for 40 pounds. I dump it out completely every 1-2 days instead of scooping. With 5 cats it costs me $10 a month and there is no smell. If you let it go beyond 3-4 days there will be a smell although it was still less obnoxious than pretty litter.
I have 6 cats and currently tire of the issues clay litter causes (the smell, the mess, the sticking to their fur if they step in someone’s pee spot because they don’t like to go potty alone). Years ago I tried the animal bedding and my old bitty kitty basically told me to fluff off and hated the texture and just went in the house wherever she felt like. I never thought to spray it to expand it before then using it (because the other 5 really don’t have preferences). But I am gonna do your method and likely be in heaven! Thank you so much for sharing. (I’m already dumping clay litter daily because… 6 cats! So it’ll be easy transition).
We are trying it now. It works well but definitely $$ and definitely doesn’t seem to last a month. Wanted to try it because our litter boxes are unfortunately near our hvac system and sometimes with clay and others I can smell it. This works pretty well with smell and dust doesn’t seem as bad. Especially like she said with the different kinds of dust. The one thing I noticed is that it tracks SUPER. bad. But over all decent. Might try a cheaper version of this next.
We are trying to see if our cat prefers pretty litter or Skoon (soft pebble-like litter) He uses both regularly but prefers to urinate in the PL and poo in the Skoon, so not sure whether to keep buying both or see if he adjusts to one kind. I like that both products are odor absorbing and light weight, but both brands require some sweeping and Skoon leaves footprints on the dark floor by the litter box. Glad PL is available at Target, too
I use the World's Best Litter which is corn, am happy with it, more affordable but Pretty Litter does have that 1 advantage(color change alert).
I think this is a great invention, like a drug detection kit or urinalysis without all the mess, super smart!
You want to know if your cat is sick, but also don't want to know because it's scary. Cats will hide something right up until it's an emergency. They are stoic when it comes to dealing with pain.
Excellent. Thank you. You sold me on the lucky charm litter pan. I've never seen it before. May not work though since I have 1 cat who likes to put both back legs on the rim so he's up high and not getting the urine on his feet (he urinates down so it doesn't spray out thankfully) and this rim is too high but I'll check it out. Thanks so much
My one girl will put 3 legs up on the rim of the box and keeps one in the box to balance when she pees, so she doesn't get anything on herself I guess 😂 It's so precious
I've been using this for my single cat for a few months now. We have a small house and we never smell the litter. Much better at controlling the smell than the other main brands at the store. The only thing that is difficult is this litter tracks like crazy! I put the litter box in a bigger cardboard box from Costco and got a special mat with holes that catch the litter to put next to the box. That has helped. This litter is awesome we never smell it and I don't scoop it every single day either. I also don't have to lug 20lb bags of litter from Costco anymore!
Love using a mat under the litter box. I do that with my cat Bacon. The color changing of PrettyLitter is my favorite part. ❤
great job..
