Question 1

Is this price only for 1 jug? The 15-lb size is only $7.99 at my local grocery store. It seems a bit excessive to pay over $20.

Accepted Answer

I was buying this on Amazon (Prime) for several months at only $7.90.  I wish I had ordered it every day.  Then the price doubled, and I'm not sure why.  I refuse to pay the new higher price, so I will either look for a new litter or hopefully find it cheaper elsewhere.  Recently I found an old jug of the same brand but scented.  I poured just a bit in our cat's box, and his feet and face smell like perfume for hours after going in there.   HORRIBLE--that cannot be good for him!  We poured it into another box and are airing it out in another room, hoping the incredibly strong smell will dissipate.I just found it on Walmart online.  Price is $7.90, and shipping is free if you order QTY of 7 (total over $50).

Question 2

I use this litter regularly and like it but the tracking is a BIG problem. Does anyone have a solution for tracking?

Accepted Answer

Tracking was a huge problem for me from way back.  My solution was to get one of the biggest hard plastic (very durable) boxes they had at PerSmart. This one's brand name is "Pet Champion".  It's about three feet long; 18 inches wide; and about 10 inches deep.  What I do is then place the actual litter box (which has high sides) inside this big box which catches whatever litter they track out of it, since they have to step into this big box before getting on the carpet.  Occasionally, I have to empty the big box into the smaller, not a big deal.  It's worked great for years; never wears out.  This big litter box even has a place to hold the scooper at the end of the box so it's always handy without touching the carpet.  Hope this helps! :)I actually found the exact same box (and dimensions) here on Amazon just now; it's Petmate 22040 Giant Litter Pan.  Mine was a different brand name and it was a gunmetal color, but the design and dimensions are identical to mine.

Question 3

How is this litter for odor control?  Thanks.

Accepted Answer

WOW! This product does a far superior job to previous cat litters we've tried from Fresh Step. Also, being unscented, it does NOT carry a perfumy odor throughout the house either. We have three cats, and scoop the litter daily. Don't have a problem with clumping at all, but it still has some dust to it (though far less than Fresh Step or other litters we've tried) Our cats had no problem adjusting to this litter either.

Question 4

Organic??  I would like to know if it has any soil amendment benefits.  I prefer to toss it out on my wooded lot, not bag it/trash it. Thx!!

Accepted Answer

There is the chance you will contaminate the soil with toxoplasmosis (sp?).  I wouldn't risk it.  Do the right thing, bag it.
