ÖKOCATOriginal Low-Dust Natural Wood Clumping Cat Litter with Odor Control 16.6 lbs Large

Super soft is the version of this litter my cats love, maybe even more than anything! 😱 At first I thought the smaller grain might make a mess, but it doesn't. I do use a litter mat, but this barely tracks anywhere (if you have a wild crazy cat who kicks everything out your results may vary, but I have no issues). It's not painful for them or me to step on if I do have to clean any stray litter up once in a while. They seem to like the feel and smell of it. It has pretty much zero smell. If anything, there might be a very very light natural smell, but not like other natural litters I've tried that reeked of woodchips or something. And that's just if you put your face right up to it and try to smell it. It has ZERO odor after my cats use it. My house never smells like cat pee. Guests say, "I didn't even know you had a cat!" We have two! And one is a giant!Now, we do still get some odors from our Himalayan because she doesn't always cover her poop because she is a princess and she can't be bothered. But, we recently adopted a Maine coon and he loves to dig, and even though he has his own litter box, he is a gentleman of culture and he goes and covers up our princess's leavings for her. He's just that kind of guy!As others said, wait 5-10 minutes or so after your cat pees to give this litter a chance to clump. It does clump super well! It's just not as instant as some litters. What I LOVE about it is that once it does clump, it leaves very little soiled litter behind (if any) so what remains in the litterbox stays clean smelling for up to a week or so. I scoop the litterboxes daily and try to change out the litter every 5-7 days because I never want my friends to have to step on anything yucky.This litter is high quality. There might be cheaper litters, but we feel the value for money ratio is excellent. We probably go through about a box every month with 2 big litterboxes for our beauty and her beast. With one cat it was about a box purchased every 1.5-2 months. With any litter, change it out completely if it ever smells bad, and try to do that sooner rather than later. This litter is a champ.Flushable? YES!!!It scoops well, but like others said, don't fill your toilet to the brim scooping all of the clumps in at once and expect them all to flush. I scoop 2-3 clumps in, then flush and I've only ever clogged the toilet by trying to flush way more than that. If you do accidentally scoop too much into the toilet at once, you can wait a few minutes and the clumps should start to dissolve enough to try clumping, but an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, so just take the advice, partner! I'm just glad this does flush because I don't have a convenient dumpster near my condo to walk bags out to the trash daily. Maybe I will try a litter genie soon to save water, though. But, in the meantime, it's nice that this litter does flush and is natural and biodegradable.We have tried lots of litter brands in the past and this is by far the best one. There might be a couple of clay or crystal brands that clump faster, but this really has pretty much no dust and we like that we're not causing ourself or our cats to breath anything iffy. I used to like World's Best cat litter, but now I don't know what I was thinking because this is so much better. This litter is also just super clean. We never have anything sticking to the litterbox. It works. If you're debating what to get, I don't think you could be disappointed with this. And I use a scoop mostly, but I do also have a sifting litterbox I use from time to time and Super soft works with the sifter easily. A little extra tapping compared to clay maybe.Pros:• No smell (or light clean smell. No fragrance. No allergy triggers for me)• clumps well. Not the fastest clump, not the slowest. Leaves hardly any soiled litter behind. Hard round clumps without stragglers.• my himi and my maine coon both love it• soft for their feet, nice to dig• less mess. Doesn't stick to their fur much if at all. Easily caught by litter mat• works with scoop or sifter• no dust in the air• dries out poop well• flushable (within reason)• lasts a week before needing full change with daily scooping (my bf says 9 days, I prefer 5, 7 is totally fine)Cons:• Not the fastest clump, but from 0 clumping to 10 being the best mega clumping, I still give this a 9. It can't beat clays for speed, so if you scoop right after your cat pees, like instantly, you might get that one clump kind of falling apart if it is still moist, but usually not. It still clumps super well on a regular basis. Firm easily scooped clumps.• I would like it to be less expensive, but I would like everything to be less expensive.• that's it!I rarely leave reviews for cat litter, but I have purchased this litter over a dozen times and my bf has purchased it for us about 100 times, so it's definitely our favorite. Every now and then we test a new litter just to make sure we still have the best. We even set two boxes out for our cats to choose, and they keep choosing Okocat. Yay!

We just got 2 kittens, 1 short hair + 1 long hair. We tried 3 kids of litter before finding this holy grail. Either it had an overwhelming perfumy smell and the litter stuck to the long fur, requiring lengthy picking, did not clump liquids, had no odor control or was extremely dusty. This was talked about on someone who fosters kittens’ website. Once I got it and used it for a week I gladly gave away the other litters and I am a believer. So happy with Okocat. The kittens love it, barely any dust, clumps nicely for solids and liquids, and has tremendous odor control. I am sold!!!! Worth every penny!

Update after 6 moths:Still really like this litter. Zero urine smell even with the box going 2 days & the cat pees several times a day (clumping litter is great for keeping tabs on that). Do you smell poops? Of course. No litter prevents that right after the cat poops. Are your poops odorless? No. But the litter dries the poops out quickly and there is no lingering poop smell. Yes, it tracks - a lot. Yes, it's very dusty but it's not the fine dust of clay. But still very dusty - just being honest. There's a film on everything near the box. The top entry box is a must with this litter & there is still lots of little particles outside the box, but again, it's physics. If you want a soft wood-based litter that clumps, you have to compromise on something. This clumps really well.Update after 3 months:Odor control: Really quite good. One cat household. Male. One litter box.Clumping: the secret seems to be you have to keep enough litter in the box. We had been using a regular litter pan & only putting about 1.5" of litter because the little devil would kick so much out while digging. And then the clumps would be pancakes stuck to the bottom that we'd have to scrape off. Switched to a top entry box where we can keep the litter deeper - about 4" - and now we get perfect spheres. And the clumps stay clumped.Dust: Have to amend this to say this litter is more than a little dusty. With the top entry box, you can now see the dust adhered to the inside of the box. We will try the larger particle Okocat next time (bigger particles than this soft paws stuff, smaller than pellets) as we've decided we like the clumping litter.Tracking: Light tiny bits of wood so yeah, it tracks. Short haired cat. Most stays close to the box, but if tracking is a deal breaker for you, probably try the other version of clumping Okocat or the pellets.Original Review:We have a 4 month old kitten that's been using traditional non-clumping clay as starter litter. HATE the fragrance. HATE the dust. God, the dust. So terrible for lungs. Ours & the cat's. And it's worse because this cat likes to get in the box and go nuts digging & moving the litter into mini-mountains. Just for fun.We tried pine pellets which we'd used with all our other cats in the past, but the little menace wanted to eat them. (I swear we did not pray for patience.)So we went looking for something that was similar in consistency to clay but wood. I'm sure the cat would eat corn or wheat litter so that was never even considered.PROS:Very little dust & what dust there is settles fastSuper light - makes it easy to move the box & empty itAlmost no scent at all & what scent there is is basically a faint fresh lumber smellTexture is very fine (see photos) so Mr. Picky Pants doesn't try to eat it or act like he's being asked to walk on hot coalsSo far, good odor control (urine & feces) even after 2 weeksCONS:Tracks like CRAZY (see photos) - cat's boxes are in the condo & most stays in there, thoughClumps are not super strong - you have to be very gentle with the scoopingSometimes the clumps stick to the bottom of the pan & break up when trying to release themWe put out one box of regular clay and one of this. We didn't mix them. I hate that. Over a week, he gradually moved to using the Okocat mostly. He's still using the clay some, but he's doing all his business in the Okocat to some degree. We'll take away the clay next week and see what happens.We are considering making our own top entry box from a rubbermaid container for him to see if that cuts down on the tracking (and because he'll probably start spray-peeing soon).I expected the tracking - you can't make something this fine & light & not expect it to track. Our cat is short haired. I can only imagine what a long haired cat would be like...What they need to work on is the clumping. I know from reading about the product, they say you should wait an hour before trying to scoop pee. But in my experience, if you wait too long (like overnight pee), the clumping gets weaker. maybe due to evaporation of the liquid. Dunno.

This is hands-down my favorite litter and here’s why:It’s sustainably sourced, ethically made, and a great investment in my cat’s health and the environment. Also, (BONUS!)PURfect for long-haired cats, this litter is natural, dust-free, and odorless—no more clay dust clouds or harsh chemicals!Pros:• Low tracking (yes, a few pellets get out, but nothing like the nightmare of clay litter!)• Doesn’t stick to paws or harden, clay has done that to my cat before, and it’s a HARD no for me.• Easy cleanup: I just toss or vacuum any stray pellets.Tips:• I use Jonny Cat liners and sprinkle baking soda underneath for added freshness.• Shoutout to the reviewer who mentioned this first: ökocat really should make their own scooper designed for these pellets! Until then, the Skoon Large Cat Litter Pooper Scooper on Amazon works pretty well, just struggles with the tiniest bits. (And that’s okay!)For Mila, the pros far outweigh the cons
