You can buy the wood litter at a tractor supply or feed store. It's equine pellets sold in a 40 pound bag. Really inexpensive. It is low dust. It is not clumpable and needs to be changed at least once a day. This is the kind of litter we use at the shelter where I volunteer.
I love it and store it in those hard plastic kitty litter tubs. If you don't have any, chances are your cat friends have extras. It helps keep it dry and makes it easier to store/carry. One bag fills up two tubs.
that’s what i use, it doesn’t smell as good as fresh step but it’s way cheaper
I used that mixed with feeling pine. I adopted 6yo cat and he didn't like standing in it. Then I switched to sustainably yours. I don't have any type of smell so I wanted something more comfortable for my cat and had better odor control. The tracking is a pain but I have to vacuum daily any way. Never heard of the ones you listed after that. It sure would be nice to lower costs but not if it's going to make my home more smelly. I like company!
I use tractor supply equine pellets and have no smell in my home. Some bags will have a stronger wood smell occasionally but it doesn’t hang around. My mom would definitely tell me if my house stunk when she visits lol

We may have the same mom!
Good video. Corn and wheat? Sounds like Hill's cat food. LOL I use A&H Multi-cat. It is like fine sand. The cats like it, I like it. A local market has it $10.99 for 20 lbs. It is often on sale for $8.99. Feeding my cats a mostly homemade/raw diet means very little smell from the litter box. Saying litter is flushable, does not mean it is. Where I live it is not recommended.
I use corn, and found it the best for my cat. It lasts a long time, keeps no odor at all, and I generally scoop it out every day or so, so it's easy and there's not much to do. It generally lasts at least several weeks or even a month until it starts to smell, as long as I refill the amount I take out. My cat has been very happy with it. But I was interested to know about the other cat litter options.
This is my experience as well. I have a mat under the litter box to help with the tracking.
The key to wood/pine pellets is using it with a sifting box. Makes maintaining it so easy.
I love my pine litter. I go to Tractor Supply and get a 40 lbs bag for 8 bucks.
@@cricketcrocker Good advice. I just bought a bag of "Feline pine" for almost $20 bucks and it's wood pellets like the Tractor Supply stuff for $8. It's hard to scoop as it will not sift thru the scooper. Plain sawdust NOT pelletized would be my choice if I could get it.
I also buy it at tractor supply. I will never go back to anything else. I used to have a Litter Robot and was spending a fortune on Sustainably Yours litter (Corn/Cassava). Was $45/bag. With 3 cats I was going thru a 1 to 1 1/2 bags a month. Literally throwing away about $65/mo just ridiculous. I now use pine with a large sifting litter box. It's been a wonderful transition.
@@spambedam You don't scoop it. You push the scoop back and forth to make it goes through the holes in the sifter box, then you empty the box that's below. I pick up the poo with a paper towel and drop it in the garbage.
I love that your cat is allowed to be on the kitchen counter. Mine too. Now that's a cat lover. Very informative vid.
Thanks for watching 😻
I really like the Cats Pride unscented clumpable in the blue container. It has low dust. And I like that Cats Pride donates 1 pound for every container sold.
Worlds Best red bag for my 2 cats, we have tried them all (flushable to!)
Same here
I have multiple cats. One is diabetic and pees a river. So tight clumping is necessary.
Clay turns into MUD. Awful to clean. But I can't afford a robotic box. So I had to experiment. Now, I am a litter and litter box connoisseur 🧐
I have 3 cats that stink the entire house when they poo.
Thing that seems to work best for me is CATS PRIDE clumping.
I keep a large bag of cheaper litter for topping off.
Plus....the thing that i recently discovered is PROBIOTIC additive. I have 5 litter boxes so 2 - $8 BAGS was needed. Worth every penny. BIG DIFFERENCE in stank control! Its a silicate with probiotics. And I use jumbo sized pan liners with a dusting of BAKING SODA.
In case of leaks, I like to use PEE PADS placed on the bottom the the box. Then the bags.
Next the baking soda.
Then litter.
Then probiotics.
Re: the liners.....
Yeah, they poke some holes, but not a big problem.
I use clamps on all 4 corners to keep them secure (I have 2 "diggers")
And thats my routine.
Hope I was of some help to someone.😊
Where can I find the probiotics and what’s it called?
What is the brand of probiotic you use?
Fantastic video Sarah, loved how in depth this was!
Glad you enjoyed it!
After trying many kinds of finer ground litter, I had to switch to pellet style litter 5 years ago because all the finer ones made one of my cats constantly sneeze and her eyes water. I tried the Breeze system, paper pellets, tofu pellets, and wood pellets. With the paper ones, I couldn't find all the smelly urine-soaked paper, so I had to throw it all out every few days. The tofu pellets didn't clump very well, so it also got completely changed out every few days. The Breeze pellets were a nice size and had no pointy edges but they were very expensive and difficult to get in Canada (this was 5 years ago). Plus, it incorporates a pee pad because the pellets don't absorb liquid, which is another expense.
I finally settled on wood pellets. I don't like that the edges are somewhat jagged but my cats use it without any issues (no injuries). It also has a strong wood smell when you first fill the box but that disappears after a couple of days and my cats don't seem bothered by it. I actually buy ones marketed for wood stoves because they're much cheaper than ones sold specifically for animal use. I just check the website to make sure they're safe for litter boxes. It controls urine smells very well because the pellets disintegrate into sawdust when wet and then dry out and fall to the bottom of the box. With poop smells, it depends on if they bury it enough. I use a sifting litter box and it takes less than 5 minutes to sift 3 boxes. Wood pellet litter isn't perfect but no litter is and it works well for my cats, especially the one. No more sneezing and watery eyes for her.
Good suggestion to buy the pellets for wood stoves! I'm happy to hear wood litter is working well for you so far :)
I’m a big fan of pine pellets with a sifting litter box. The pee that break down the pellets and go to the bottom and leaves no smell. And the poop is easily discarded. Cost effective, no dust and no perfumes.
The only drawback was that I had to slowly introduce it to my cat. Took about 3 weeks but after that she has no complaints. 😊
I honestly recommend walmart's "spcial kitty" unscented clumping clay it's very low dust for a clay litter and cheap
Great video!! Thanks for the Important info for us cat owners. I appreciate it. 😻
Glad it was helpful!
Corn can be very nasty to cats. We tried corn litter for one day. Even though it triggered an ER visit, it helped us figure out corn (useless food filler) was the cause of all her other health issues (bulemia which eventually led to no teeth, corn cobbing her fur, etc).
😲
What is corncobbing her fur?
@@gloriahoulne1034 Gnawing off her fur until it was bald due to how itchy it felt. Most of her thighs and underside/abdomen were smooth or felt like stubble when it started growing back. She also scratched herself all the time. That was caused by the corn/grain in her food. When she tried to use a littler box with corn litter, it was magnified exponentially.
(btw, I think corn can't be digested by cats anyway. Best-case is that it is only a waste of your money and passes through your cat with no nutritional value.)
@@fibonacho thank you so much
@@gloriahoulne1034 You're welcome! I should probably mention that the act of "corncobbing" a few times while bathing is normal behavior - I was referring to her doing that an extreme compulsive way (in an attempt to relieve her allergic reaction).
But a little nibble or two is ok. 😊
Price vs weight is not a good way to compare cost. Rather, cost vs volume is a better indicator. Whether you use clay or whatever litter, you would fill your box up to the same level, producing the same volume. So clay litter would weigh a lot more than grass. Personally, I use both clay and wood, with clay being in the garage and wood for the indoors. The wood litter weighs much much less. The cat prefers the clay litter by far.
I have had cats for many years and have used clay, clumping clay, paper, wood, and currently using corn litter. I initially switched from clay to wood because I found clay to be poor on odor control. Wood was excellent for odor control, but not good for tracking and sometimes uncomfortable for my cats paws. Paper was terrible for odor control, and thus I only tried it for a short period of time. I have been using corn for the last several years and have been very happy with it. There is never any ammonia smell, and it is easy to flush. So as you can see, I have several points of disagreement with this video. I think the one I’ll be most interested in possibly trying in the future is pea husk.
Great video of an important topic Sarah. I currently use Dr Elseys Respiratory Relief for a cat with asthma and Tidy Cat unscented for a very old girl with medical issues that pees a lot.I have used World's Best unscented,I loved that until in heat and humidity hit here and the bags when opened had black bugs in them. I used paper litter for a cat the had primary hemolytic anemia because he ate clay litter with that disease, it was not my favorite. I think I would be interested in trying something like Sustainable Yours but that brand seems very expensive or another type of material that is not clay ,but preferably clumping ❤
I have been using "Naturally Fresh Walnut Shell Liter" for over two years. Great on handling smell, scooped once a day with one cat and people don't even realize we have a cat in the house. Clumps up good and is pretty good on low tracking out of the box. Can be a little dusty at time though but over all a very good product.
I agree, this is my favorite litter for the cats now.
I am using Sustainably Yours Multi Cat (dumb name!) for my two kitties. Two negatives: it does track and price. But, odor control is excellent and the strongest clumping of any litter I have used. It is corn and cassava.
Have you had any issues with mold? I was strongly considering this brand and didn't find anything about if they had cured the litter for aflatoxin. I live with immuno-compromised peeps so I'm really concerned about bringing something into my home that might make them ill.
@@zenithmaiden2109 No, no problem with mold for us.
If you don't have tractor or animal feed stores near you: Lignetics Oak Stove Pellets. 40lbs/$8 No odor, except it smells a little woodsy after used. It doesn't get "changed." Check the videos on sifter boxes with wood pellets.
Thanks for this - it was really thorough! I had seen someone mention using wood pellets, but you covered wood. What you showed was similar and answered a question. I guess I want a clumping litter, but wood appears to dissolve the wood which for me isn't ideal.
Glad it was helpful! Unfortunately most wood pellet litters I have seen are not clumping, but you have be able to find some finer ground wood litter than is clumping.
Wood pellets turn to sawdust, and you push the scoop back and forth to force it through the holes of the sifting box into the box below. Check out the videos on sifting boxes and wood pellets.
I'm using Really Great Cat Litter. One of my cats has to take steroids for IBD, which makes her urinate a lot. This clumps really well, however, it still smells a bit. I'm interested in trying the pea husk litter. I've never heard of it. I use casava and clay litter mixed for my other two girls. I find that mixing the two litters together, makes it last longer. It has really good clumping power and hardly any smell.
I am so glad you posted this comment!
I was just going to write for some advice because my cat is diabetic and it's like an ocean in her box. What do you like about that litter most?
I never heard of it!
I'd like to give it a go.
@@itsmybuddha.nature It clumps well, but it's expensive. Not much dust either. I also use the clay/cassava mixture for my kidney cat.
Contrary to what is said at 11:17, please NEVER flush any kind of cat waste (poop or litter) down a toilet. The bacteria that is often present is rarely eliminated by water treatment processes, which means it can make its way into our water, food, and us.
My thoughts exactly 👍
Wastewater treatment plants drain treated effluent into creeks and streams or use it for non-potable irrigation purposes. I would point out that waste from wildlife also makes its way into surface water bodies, yet nobody seems to have an issue with that.
I use chewys frisco brand grass litter. Unscented of course. Its great at clumping, odor control, and is lightweight. Doesn't cling to my long haired cat. Only problem I have is tracking.
Have you had any issues with bugs in the litter with this? I had used a corn litter and it started coming with black bugs in the bag. I really would like to get away from clay/ crystals for a cat with asthma and thought that this might be worth a try
@dahliaobsessed one time I received a bag with maybe a handful of dead little black bugs. Chewy told me I could throw the bag away, or donate it to a rescue and sent me a new bag right away. I've been using the chewy frisco brand for a few years and only had a problem once. I hands odor great, is light weight, clumps better than clay I think. Only problem is tracking. Every litter tracks though. A 20lb bag of the grass litter equals the volume of a 40lb bag of clay litter. I also notice I use a lot less of the grass litter. Main reason I switched was the dust from clay, it kept getting stuck on my ling haired cat, and the weight of clay litter was killing me.
@@jeannettebarnes2193 Thank you for your kind reply. She is doing well on her asthma inhaler, but I am always looking for less dust for her. Yes , Chewy is always great in addressing issues . I never understand any negative reviews. Just contact them!
I prefer the silica crystals over clay. True, they are pricey but worth it. With the clumping litter, one of my two cats loves to bury the bejesus out of his waste which breaks up the clumps of pee. I believe that the litter only clumps up once. After some time, the clumping litter acts more and more like the bargain clay litter. The crystals act as a desiccant which mummifies the poops rendering them well... odorless like a mummy. With two cats, two bags of Fresh Step Crystals in a jumbo litter box can last a month between changes. I edited this to include the tracking us very low compared to the clumping litter with it tiny granules.
I have used Natures Miracle corn cob litter for many years and I love it! There is virtually no dust and has a very mild pleasant scent. Clumps very well and if you clean the litter box everyday there is no odor. I would not use anything else especially clay.
In the end it's what your cat will use, not how many bells and whistles humans say is good for them. If we could give our inside cats a box of nice garden dirt they would love us.
I'm glad that my cat is a very flexible about his environment. I've been playing with non-clumping clay in my petsafe auto box to save money. If anyone has any suggestions please let me know.
I use two kinds. Clumping clay in a Litter Robot and then also a Tidy Cats Breeze system which is a pellets and pee pad system. The Breeze is no dust and very low tracking. Some pellets end up coming out of the box but not nearly as bad as clumping litter in a traditional box.
I've used walnut litter for the past six years. Im very satisfied with it. The one I use clumps via bean powder & produces almost no dust. It can be kind of heavy, I use a rolling cart when I buy the large 26 lb bag. Also, it does track quite a bit, but I just add the required sweeping/vacuuming to my step count for the day. I agree that the brown color helps to camaflouge the waste. 😁
I'm happy to hear walnut litter has been working well for you! 😺
Not a litter Chewy carries, but I really love Smart Cat litter. It’s a grass litter. Super low dust (almost none) with fast tight clumps. It compares almost exactly in price with Tidy Cat lightweight clumping litter. I’m glad I made the switch. It’s nice and soft on my cat’s paws.
I use the Tidy Cat, so this is good to know.
Chewy does carry that grass litter. I actually buy the frisco grass litter. It's chewys brand that's exactly the same, but cheaper.
Yes, I use Frisco by Chewy grass cat litter. It tracks all over the house, though
@@ellenzinniel1491 I’m noticing tracking as well, although it vacuums up quickly and doesn’t leave a lot of dust in my vacuum like the clay clumping litter. I suppose there are trade offs.
I exclusively use the Tidy Cats Breeze system which is a pellets and pee pad system. The Breeze is no dust and very low tracking. My boy likes to fling the pellets around so they come out of the box a lot, but I can sweep them up and put them back in the box. It is far and away the best at odor control that I have ever used. The way my apartment is arranged, his box ended up about 6 feet from my bed, and I **NEVER** notice the oder. Even when he's just used it and is doing his victory lap.
I use Really Great Cat Litter and love it. Hardly any tracking.
Currently using Naturally Fresh Ultra Odor Control walnut litter. I like the smell of it, it does good odor control, and I think my cats like it better as well. The one who was not covering his litter started to cover it more. I did a gradual transition from World's Best. However. It is duuuuuusty. I have dust covering about a 5ft radius on everything in the room the litter is in. So, I'm looking to switch. Probably will try pea husk based on this video.
I use cedarific Soft cat litter natural Cedar chips since my cat was 2 months old now that he is 9 months I want to change it but he is used to it. It’s very soft on his paws . Don’t know what to do .
Thanks for mentioning the fact that corn litter can cause mold, i use a top corn litter(pricey but my cats like it) but seeing alot of articles that once wet can cause antifloxins(which may be ingested when cleaning feet) Since you have a lab to send these to, can you send corn litter to see if antifloxin will occur when urination is on it? Would greatly appreciate this, would help my worrying. Im transisitioning to pine but 2 of my 5, are very hesitant.
I've been using Sustainably Yours (corn) for a number of years. It is highly recommended by Jackson Galaxy. It is not the best with odor control, however it is the very best when it comes to clumping. Nothing compares. As long as it's cleaned out every day, it's close to perfect. Note: when I scoop the litter, I spray Nature's Miracle and it does a great job absorbing odors.
As a house with 4 cats the clay litter got very heavy and environmental concerns led us to switch to feline pine. It works very well but I would also be interested in pea husk or tofu. Work of caution I tried to get wood pellets from the hardware store and the odor control was just terrible. Feline Pine has my faithful business for now.
Tried them all and had to go back to clay. When our cat doesn't like a litter he has no issue going in the corner of the basement. Dislike clay mostly because it's so heavy, also tried the lightweight type but it tracks like crazy.
Really like wood pellets as once it gets wet it breaks down and can be siffted out, too bad the cat doesn't lol.
Great video!
I'm in the UK and use Cat's Best organic clumping wood litter. It's one of the most expensive litters available here but it lasts a long time, covers smell really well and has minimal dust. My cats really like it as well, which is obviously the most important thing! The only downside is because the pieces are so small it does track EVERYWHERE
Thank you so much for this video.
I would love if you could break down what they claim the can do or what they are for.
Especially ARM & HAMMER, TIDY CAT and CATS PRIDE.
They advertise: clumping, tight clumping, non-clump, 20% lightweight, 50% lightweight, multi cat, 10 day odor, baking soda, easy slide, unscented, scented, premium .... my head hurts shopping for litter. 😵💫
I use pine pellets from Tractor Supply. It a 40 lb bag for $8. I use XL Tidy Cat litter system. I put it on a Rubbermaid storage bin and it’s awesome. I have 4 cats and only two litter boxes. I get compliments all the time because my home doesn’t smell.
Great idea!
A couple of video recommendations: Tofu litter review Brand: Pidan. If you could do food reviews of the following : Lotus canned food ; Wellness Core; Farmina; and Viva Raw. Also could you look into a probiotic called Felix's Flora by adored beast apothecary.
I offer our 3 cats clay and grass. The grass is much softer on their feet and even though it tracks, it's not as hard on my feet when I step on it. They do prefer clay but I am concerned about the dust. I did try walnut shell but the smell was overpowering for me so I can't imagine what it would do for the cats. I packed it off without even keeping it for a try. Also, I didn't like the way it seemed to stain the litter pan. Thanks for this very informative review; it was very helpful.
The reason wood litter has such a small market share on Chewy is probably because most of us who use it buy the huge bags of kiln dried pellets from the local feed store! Sometimes our rescue has the officially "cat litter" wood products donated and there's truly no difference.
We find that wood pellets cover the urine smell better than clay but of course, they do nothing for the poo.
I think that is really true, as I always bought my pine/wood litter at the feed store because it was the best value. And to your point about poop, nothing absorbs poop smell. The only thing that works is removing it as as soon as possible.
That could definitely be a part of the reason it's a lower market share on Chewy!
I have 3 cats. Really wanted to switch to wood pellet litter. One cat responding well. The other 2 hated it. I tried over 3 months to slowly progress to pellet litter. One cat pooped in an empty litter box I had sitting near their other boxes rather than use the pellet litter. I do still have 2 litter boxes with the pellets because one of my cat will occasionally use it to pee in
I use Tidy Cat Low Dust with Fresh Step odor control. It's in a big yellow bag. She seems to prefer it, and the odor control is great. Also, clean your cat's litter box(es) every day.
I used Tidy Cat 35lbs muti - cat hard clumping and 24/7 odor control. And
Arm&Hammer cat muti cat hard clumping scented or unscented 40 lb
The breeze system should also be mentioned. The negatives are the price and the trash that it produces, but it is dust free and almost tracking free. It is worth the money for me to have a clean house.
We use paper cat litter. Its low tracking, and when it does track, its easy to clean up with a broom instead of little sand/clay pieces everywhere! When paper litter has been used, it swells and gets darker so its easy to tell the parts that need to be removed. My cats seem to like it. It doesn't seem to do much for lowering smell, but if you pair it with arm&hammer powder, it is great!
Sarah, I thank you so much for this video. Please see health issue below I just want to add some thing to the information for the corn/cassava type cap litters.
I have an oriental shorthair kitten he is around seven months of age. He has exhibited asthma type allergies to the grass cat gravel that I really like. So I thought I would change off to sustainably yours the one you pictured in your video. I totally agree with you on the dust that seems to go everywhere not from them going to bathroom, but from tracking it out in their feet. That being said, I had a problem with my oriental shorthair with switching his litter to Sustainably Yours Multi Cat. He suddenly became constipated, and would cry, and his diet had not changed at all. I was seriously getting ready to have the vet do all kinds of tests to figure out why he was so constipated, no matter how much he ate and how he would just cry before trying to go to the bathroom and not being able to. He finally passed a hard stool, and my vet had said to capture it so I did in a Ziploc. Much to my surprise I saw the gravel in his stool, so I pulled it apart in the bag and was packed with that aka fine yellow dust inside it. I was explaining this to A friend of mine before going into the vet the next day and we thought oh my gosh this kitty litter is a starch and because it’s such a fine dust it gets on his coat and stays on his paws, and he licks it all off, and he’s constipated from the very kitty litter he’s trying to go to the bathroom in. I mediately switched kitty litter and within a couple days back on the grass gravel. He was fine and was able to go to the bathroom and I was so relieved. I saved myself a lot of vet bills too and happy to see he wasn’t in pain anymore. So in my long story, please, please mention in your videos that this could be a very issue for other peoples cats and their health going forward. I see that sustainably yours now has a thicker density to their product. Maybe they know this is an issue.
Thank you for all you do and I hope I can save someone’s kitty from this issue going forward.
Oh no! I'm sorry to hear about the issue you had with Sustainably Yours. Thanks for sharing!
I recently relocated to Asia and it seems that tofu litter is more popular here and also less expensive than clay. I wonder why
Ooh interesting!
How is the order control in the soy one?
I'm using clay litter, but I am interested in the Tofu litter.
Pea husk sounds interesting. It was rated highly but only had 22 reviews! That’s so few that me and 6 of my closest friends could game the ratings significantly either up or down. Compare that with tofu, another one of the less common choices but which still had over 1,300 reviews.
i have been hearing about the tofu one Thinking about it because of tracking
I was using the wood pellets but my cat stopped using it and I switched to grass litter and he loves it been using it for about a year now.
I think it would be interesting to do a video on pretty litter and the other litter health additives. Some people seem to really find them useful.
Great suggestion!
What's the best type of cat litter that's not really expensive that is good for a cat who has allergies and I have allergies also I heard it was dust-free and odor control
I find the paper cat litter is super absorbant!! It swells when it is "used" and is easy to clean because you just scoop the chunks that have been used.
i use worlds best red. I would like to try wood and grass. I will never go back to clay. It smells faster. It tracks more because I HAVE to get lightweight bc im disabled. There is zero pros to clay for me other than cost but you end up spending the same amount bc the clay doesnt last as long!
Hi, I'm wondering if you guys could create a list of wet cat food products that are not on the BDS list. I've been giving my cat Friskies for a year, but recently learned that Purina has been added on the list and I don't want to support mass genocide. If it's not too much a quick description and recommendations of them would be great.
Your guy's video's are always so helpful and will continue to support the channel ❤
If she doesn't reply, there are many cat food reviews on the internet
Pretty Litter has almost no odor. And has health indicators. Recommend it to everyone.
What chemicals are in the litter for it to change color? I have never see ingredients list for the product. That is the only thing that concerns me. Otherwise it seems like a good idea.
@@dahliaobsessed I don’t have the specifics on that. But my cat lived to be 22 and it was the best litter I ever used.
Not all paper litter comes as pellets like your sample. The paper litter brand available from my local store is actually more like small clumps of shredded paper pieces similar in size and shape to clay litter pieces and is significantly more dusty than the clay litters.
The paper I used for my cat that had primary hemolytic anemia was more like shredded. It was very necessary because he had started eating the clay litter when he was in the hospital.
I used tofu. And my cat loves it.
I'm glad to hear tofu litter is working well for you!
The drawback to the silica crystals is that it turns from it's nice white to yellow due to the urine no matter how many times you stir it up as per the directions. People say you can go up to a month before changing but that doesn't seem to be the case unless it's just a color changing thing and not that it's not still effective. Can anyone confirm this?
skoon is what I'd like to hear about
I like tidy cat unscented free and clear it works well I will always use clumping.
I also prefer clumping! Glad to hear you found a litter that works for you!
Be careful with the grass litter. It used to be my favorite. I got it from Chewy, but it came infested with bugs on more than one occasion. I'm using walnut shells now.
Oh no!!
A&H slide is the best!
Not All Wood litter smells Woodsy. How about Grass litter ? That's Good ! It smells Good 👍
Thank you!
Ignore the people freaking out 'Where's Mallory!'. You're doing great.
Thank you 💛
I use World's Best in the red bag. Clay litter is banned from my house, its nasty and so dusty and unhealthy for cats to breathe.
Worlds best is my favourite by far.
👍🏻
Clay all the way!
When i decide to get another cat again I’m not getting a cat litter I’ll find out how my first cat discovered our WC and how it did its thing in the loo
There are several videos of cats being trained to use the toilet.
Walnut corn pretty litter paper pine tofu are disgusting! Can you do a videos on litter mats and litter scatter clay is better that it does scatter but less than the natural ones I have a mats but still get some scatter. Recommend you address litter scatter mats. Lowest scatter is clay.
Great suggestion!
I heard silica gel litter could be painful for their paws...
I want my litter to stay crunchy ... even in milk!
Tofu is Ok but Its expensive. I DO NOT FLUSH ! LITTER. ITS NOT TO DO. WALNUT ISNT TOO BAD!
Walmart green bag 7lb unscented 1.69
I bought a soy litter and my cat wouldn’t go near it. Had a weird smell.
I do not like paper cat litter...it gets gross
Tofu isn't bad. It's Expensive
I use tofu cat litter because the main disadvantage is price. However, in my country it's just ~2$ per 5lbs, not that expensive.
Really? Cat litter review video sponsored by a cat litter brand. What happened to being a channel that made unbiased reviews. I'm shocked by the instant disappointments with the sudden change in host. I didn't think just having a different host would change the content that much.
We're sorry you feel this way, this video is data based and the insights are based on that data from real cat parents. The sponsored brand was used in the video as an example of a category type of litter
@@AllAboutCatsYT what happened to Mallory?
@@BigTimeRushFan2112Read the Community section on the channel's home page.
Agree. Feels like it has slowly became less unbiased. Maybe that's why Mallory left
Hello Sarah 👋 I used to buy Clay, But I have bought Wood and PINE. I haven't bought Crystal either.
There are changes to this channel and I am not appreciating the lack of transparency.
Sorry to hear you feel that way @Briantanwah. We have been giving updates in our community group to help provide some transparency on all the changes happening to the channel. Hopefully these updates will help give you some more insight :)
@@AllAboutCatsYTWHAT HAPPENED TO MALLORY? Miss her greatly as she was very succinct and happy when discussing her commentary?
Another really great video. I appreciate the facts and details that you provide! I'm a former store buyer/category manager for pet food and litter. I have 4 cats too! I appreciate your channel and content. ☺️
you missed the community posts and it shows
@@AllAboutCatsYT Can you give any updates here?
Are you now "all about cats"?
What are you going on about? They've been "all about cats" for years.
@@whiteknightcat Ok, wrong question. I should have asked about Mallory. But i found in the community tab.
@@thorz7304OK, I think I now understand the meaning of your question. You were asking if the host was now the new "face" of the channel, which would be true - she introduced herself on a previous video.
I miss Mallory 😢

$1.06 per pound for clay? Nonsense. The price for special kitty litter at Walmart April 2024 is $5.48 for 20 pounds which is less than 30 cents a pound. Accordingly nothing in this article is reliably informative. Find some sand that's free, cats like it 100% and it's environmentally neutral. Just dump it in the garden.
So, I unsubscribed from your channel days ago, it is amazing to me why I keep getting your videos. If Mallory comes back, I'll watch, but until then I'm not.
Another tip, use doggy poop bags to hand grab the poop from litter if you're using a chunky litter that doesn't sift through a scoop well!
Excellent. Or any plastic bag.
