I buy the 48lb package of Fresh Step Total Control Cat Litter because it does control ordors better than any other litter I have tried. My cat has no issues using his box. There are two issues that it does have, it is not dust free and it does make crumbles. When I scoop his box I do wear a face mask to keep from coughing and inhaling the dust. The urine clump doesn't break totally up but there are small pieces that fall through my cat scoop. I would still recommend it as it really controls ordors.

This is the best cat litter. I “sift” it using a Joseph Joseph plastic square pasta strainer. I do this after I scoop with a regular scoop. The JJ strainer catches all the “crumbs” that are a couple of pieces stuck together. It’s like brand new litter when I am done so it lasts a long time, making it very economical.

I am not totally displeased, but MY CAT, does not prefer this brand. She will pee out side the litter rather than pee in this litter, because it is crumbly and does not clump. The litter does a good job of controlling the odors from the litter. That part I am PLEASED with.

When Sam's ran out of Fresh Step we were distraught & scrambled to find it anywhere with not much luck & we were lterally devastated because the quality of Fresh Step is #1 in our opinion. We literally tried at least 3 other brands but WERE NOT satisfied or impressed by their marketing of "dust free" (so far from the truth), the packaging was literally at best (extremely difficult to open & smash the box down) & I could go on & on but it takes away from the review & letting Fresh Step shine & stand out as it should! Hands down, by far the absolute best litter on the market & as I mentioned, the paw points program offers a large variety of prizes with your ponts! Their program called "Paw Points" where you can get coupons for either free or litter at a huge discount is wonderful because in addition to the coupons you can also choose from magazines, books, cat toys & much more with your account giving credits to your favorite rescue or shelter. 5 stars period.

I have one cat left out of three. She is fifteen years old. All of my cats live to an old age. They are all indoor cats. Cat litter is a must. I have tried manly brands of cat litter over the years, and I have found Fresh Step cat litter to be the most reliable and consistently uniform over all that I have tried. That being said, all cat liters track through the house. Fresh Step is less prone than most to cling to cats feet. It is also more easily scooped because of it's finer grain than some bargain brands.

Bought this cat litter as a convenience buy because I was at Sam's already and I didn't feel like driving to HEB where I usually buy my cat litter. This cat litter started to smell bad only after a few day of usage by one cat. HEB brand has no smell much, much longer.

I recently had lumbar fusion surgery and can’t carry heavy boxes of litter up the stairs right now. I was worried about changing my cat’s litter because he is very picky and easily annoyed when things change in his world. I purchased this litter because it is packaged in 4 separate 11 pound bags which are much easier for me to carry up the stairs, one bag at a time. I am happy to report that this cat litter is very good. It is dust free, has a pleasant scent, is packaged in 4 separate that are much easier to carry up the stairs, and clumps into hard balls which are easy to scoop. Most importantly my cat hasn’t complained about this new litter.

I really like using this cat litter. I'd used a different brand for a few years and couldn't get it once. I purchased this and never used other brand again. When using the other brand I'd notice pieces of litter scattered through the house, etc. It was probably caught in their feet, etc. Since using Fresh Step, there's nothing through the house.

Finally, smaller litter bags, i can break apart from the bundle and carry downstairs. And now it is so easy to dump the past weeks litter and put in a fresh bag without the guess work. And hauling out the used smaller quantity is just as easy. They got a winner here

When on sale, we find this to be a great value. We have multiple cats (lots of rehabilitated abandoned/feral cats ; please spay/neuter). It definitely keeps the odor down and clumps better than some of the lower cost brands. We use other brands when not on sale. We also like the fact that they are in small bags so carrying is easier. I waffled on the star rating but went lower because of the cost.
