Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I HATE clay litter. Most of them have perfumes which I'm sensitive to, and the pieces get stuck in the cats' paws. Since my husband insists on allowing his cat to sleep in the bed with us (I don't mind this) the pieces of clay litter also ended up in the bed, and as you can imagine (or perhaps don't have to imagine) those pieces are incredibly uncomfortable to lie on. I also never enjoyed stepping on them on the floor. There's also the dust issue. I tried Swheat Scoop, which I was happy with because it didn't have such a perfume smell to it and it was made from a more renewable resource, but it's VERY dusty. More so, I thought, than the clay litter had been. So I went back to clay litter for a time, then found Feline Pine clumping litter. It was softer, so if pieces made it to our bed, I couldn't feel them, but the pieces that got onto our microfiber furniture were very hard to remove. I liked this for a short while...it worked well enough, but my husband complained about the furniture issue and I couldn't clean the litter box without a layer of dust coating the lenses of my glasses. I soon realized there was a film from it on my bathroom door, floor, and everywhere else.
We had always used clumping litters, so I was hesitant to try a non-clumping version, but I really liked the idea of Yesterday's News. I've been using it for a month or two now and I'm very happy with it. There really isn't any dust and no pieces make their way to our bed or the furniture. The cats kick a few pieces out onto the floor when they leave the litter box, but nothing is getting stuck in their paws and the pieces on the floor are easy to see so I can avoid stepping on them.
Another review talked about how difficult it is to clean the litter box with Yesterday's News. I, too, have 2 cats and I initially tried cleaning out the feces and urine-soaked pieces of litter, and also found it near impossible (much more with the urine-soaked pieces than the feces). The urine actually sinks to the bottom, so I have to agree with the other reviewer that it would be good if there was a way to just remove the bottom 1/4 of the litter. But I've found that with my 2 cats, it's easiest to just change the litter box completely every 4 days or so. This may seem like a waste, but given the amount of clean litter I was scooping out while trying to clean out the soiled litter, I think it's an even exchange.
I think I've finally found a litter that both my husband and I can be happy with. :)
