Simple and easy

Tidy Cat multi cat clumping litter is simple and easy to use. Simply pour in the box, spread evenly, Care is easy,, simply sift our the clumps and other matter and add a bit of fresh litter to the box.

Go back to the two 20# jugs.

I like this cat litter, what I don’t like is the 40# box. I much rather prefer the two 20# jugs over the one box of 40#. I’m approaching 70 years and lugging two 20# containers is easier to that of one 40# box. I have to carry them down into the basement and on the main floor. Again, it is easier and safer to tote two 20# jugs than a 40# box.

Good litter, difficult box

Freebie saving grace idea, guys. Please send me a. box a month for life after I tell you this one.... Put another handle on the rear of the box near the bottom as a two-handed pour assist. Trying to hold and pour this as-is is brutal. I really miss the old plastic buckets. Maybe once a year offer the bucket for a month so we can replenish our shed-stock of these handy totes - they were so much better than the $3 home depot buckets.

It's okay.

It's alright. It's just so messy. High tracking. All of it is really. The box is not ergonomically designed AT ALL. What a mess to pour. We used a plastic cup to scoop it out. 1st world problems I guess.

The cat likes it, me not so much

The cat only wants one type of litter. We've tried switching to “lightweight “ types and the cat uses the floor next to the box. The litter itself is fair. No odors and minimal dust. Only two issues… 1. The litter doesn't so much clump as turn to cement. You need a strong metal scoop to clean the box. 2. The box the comes in is unwieldy. 40 lbs is difficult on the stairs, pouring is a challenge and you need pliers to open the box.

Product Good but Packaging Requires a Pick-Axe

No issues with the actual product but the packaging needs to be reworked. Package is heavy and awkward to carry, VERY difficult to open up and requires a big opening to scoop into a more manageable container. Too much for me and I am a widow so hubby not here to help!

reply from Purina

We're very sorry to hear about your experience. Please know that we’re constantly working to improve our packaging. It is possible to find both perforated bags within the boxes, as well as bags with no perforation. Perforated bags can be easily opened with your hands. Non-perforated bags have a stronger seal and will need to be cut open. We hope this helps, and if you have further questions or concerns, please contact us by following this link: https://www.purina.com/contact-us/. - The Tidy Cats Team

Buy more, buy often. That's the secret, I guess.

I was really disappointed with this as I've used this for years and recently the quality of the odor absorption has been noticeably less effective, forcing buying more frequently. I guess everything is just going for max profit while reducing quality. Really sad state of things nowadays.

Save your money, do not buy! No odor control.

I would give zero stars if possible. Save yourself the hassle and buy Fresh Step litter. This litter does not control odors at all after 3 days. You will be doing complete litter changes way too often.

Worst litter we've ever used.

We were walking on litter throughout the house for 2 weeks once I started using this brand. The cats tracked it EVERYWHERE. I assume because the litter isn't grinded down enough and it's more like balls of litter, but all I know is never ever ever EVER again. I put the second box we bought straight in the trash. What a waste!

Clean hourly unless you want a stinky house.

Must be cleaned multiple times a day unless you want a stinky house. Only got this because they were out of the44lb fresh step even though they showed it available for pick up or delivery. It clumps nicely but does little to nothing for smell. Fresh step is better.
