Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of SCOOP AWAY MULTICAT LITTER - 25 PoundCustomer Review: Terrible if you love your cats more than yourself Summary: 2 Stars
I've mostly used natural litters for my cat. I decided to save money and buy this litter on my last trip to the grocery store. Let's start with the positives. This litter does, in fact, clump hard--rock hard, in fact, which makes scooping waste a breeze. It also is effective at masking waste odors, but more on that in a bit.
That said, this product suffers from the common clay litter problem of DUST. The first thing you will notice when you pour the litter, however gently, is the cloud of fine dust that rises into the air, coating the room. The next thing you will notice is the overpowering, chemically detergent-like scent of the litter. Get used to that smell, because your cats are going to permanently smell like that if you use this litter, as will the catbox corner of the room, and everything the cats lay on. Every time they dig they kick up miniature dust clouds that coat their fur. If the smell bothers you, just think about the cat that has to dig in and be coated by the stuff. And remember that "rock hard clumping"? That's what goes on in the cat's gut when he licks his dust-covered fur. Maybe it's safe enough, but I prefer my cat to smell like a cat rather than a box of Tide. I'm using this bucket up and then will be filling it with the corn or pine-based stuff. Did I mention it comes with in a big plastic bucket with a metal handle? It's a nice bucket, but this is incredibly wasteful. Anyway, there are plenty of clumping natural and biodegradable litters on the market without chemical additives, dust, or overwhelming chemical scents. There is no need for rock-hard clumping, and odor can be managed easily enough by providing an adequate number of boxes and scooping twice daily.
