  • 10-liter bag

  • Odor free and Flushable! My cats adapted well to this litter after rejecting anything made of corn. I have a septic tank and I live in Africa where garbage disposal is an issue. I must have flushable litter.I find it a bit dusty but that is not a big deal as my cats are not asthmatic. It tracks and as someone noted the big granules look like you have dumped granola on the floor. However I find that it tracks only in a small area around the litter boxes. Perhaps this is because I put a rubber mesh carpet underpad under and next to my litter boxes and this helps trap the scatter. The pellets of litter are very lightweight a plus for me in transport but they are soft and my cats do not mind stepping on this litter. It takes a bit of care while scooping as the clumps that form are soft and fragile. I don't mind but it might drive another person nuts.The main issuesodor control cat acceptance and flushabilityare fully met by this product. And for my esthetic sensibilities I rather like the green tea scent and I love that it is 100% recycled.
    Does Not Live Up to Expectation I had high hopes for this litter after having it highly recommended from a local pet store. The plus was that it was super light and the bag claimed that 10 liters was to last a single cat a month! I happily cleaned out the old litter and replaced it with the green tea leaves and found that in actuality the odor control was not that great. We have a small apartment and must keep the litter box in the foyer so if the box is not fresh you smell it immediately upon entering. While it seemed to do pretty well with concealing urine smells it took many hours like 46 before the poop smell was absorbed. I resorted to pouring baking soda in the box everyday even after cleaning it and it still smelled bad. Also while it claims to be low tracking we still found these large pellets all over the house. This bag that was claimed to last a month ended up lasting less then two weekswe are moving on to the next litter.
    Green Tea Leaves Cat Litter Inspite of the steep price of this cat litter it is well worth buying but unfortunately it hardly lasts longer than one month.
    Great odor control makes me a lazy litter cleaner After finding out about the environmental impacts of mining to extract the materials for regular cat litter which also just piles up landfills and does NOT decompose I began trying natural litters. I have tried every single natural litter that is sold in pet stores that I've ever seen Feline Pine World's Best Nature's Miracle Yesterday's News cornbased clumping and non etc.. I've also used a variety of nonbioderadable litters in the past such as crystals ones with baking powder and more. This is by far the most superior and the urine odor control beats all types the only caveat is that it is not perfumed like some regular litters so if that strong and awful IMHO perfumed litter smell is your preference you won't get it here.It also does not clump AS hard as some regular litters but it does clump just fine. Just don't shake the scoop too vigorously when sifting the clumps. The tradeoff if you choose smallergrained natural litters which sometimes clumps tighter is a LOT more tracking. This litter tracks very little because the large pellets are less likely to get stuck in their paws. Yet the pellets dissolve with moisture and thus are able to break apart & coagulate to do their job. Just get a widerslatted scoop if you are having trouble with the litter pellets not sifting through. I even use this litter with a semi selfcleaning litterbox the Omega Paw and it works just fine. I struggle to find this litter in stores and recommend that you purchase locally if you can find it thankfully you can buy it online in a pinch.PROs1 Less tracking than your average litter2 Almost no dust3 Safe for kitty's lungs and digestive system4 Fantastic odor control thus less frequent scooping required5 Clumping!6 Lasts a very long time offsetting litter cost7 Very lightweight & easy to carry8 Smells nice9 Biodegradable but try to use BioBags for the waste the compost bin size works greatCONs1 Can be hard to find more likely to be at your local independent pet store which is better than a nationwide chain anyway2 Not eligible for Amazon Prime3 Not as tightly clumping as regular litter4 Plastic packaging is not recyclable or biodegradableBottom line I'm very picky about litter and tend to try every option before claiming loyalty to one product if ever. This product is on my short list.
    Great for odor control This is a pricey litter but so worth it. Number one I have 4 cats and the litter does not stink like pee. I change the litter 2x a day. If I am not home 1x a day. And it's not a disaster smell like other litters.1 bag of these lasted me for 2.5 weeks. I am very content.
    little dust
    Disappointing Mess Sorry to dash anybody's hopes here. I know the reviews are pretty glowing but that does not match my experience. This litter is not good. The chunks are huge which not only seemed to make it hard for my cats to use but looked disturbingly like granola when tracked all over the room. And track it does like crazy. Which defeated my reason for buying it. Thankfully on a tip I switched to
    Absolutely OdorFree Since I first used this product I won't use any other brand. It seems my local pet and grocery stores can't keep it in stock so I just order it every month through Amazon. This product doesn't try to mask catbox odors with equally bad floral odors. Instead the real green tea used in this product seems to absorb the bad odors leaving no odor at all. What a relief.
    I tried everything and this one is the lowest odor and tracking I hate poo. I really hate smelling it from litter boxes. I tried all types of the natural litters except the cedar kind how it clumps worried me I will not use clay because of the health risks to my cats. Green tea litter works the best! My house no longer smells like cats live there it also has very minimal tracking I use the modKat litter box. I absolutely love it I was so frustrated with finding the right litter until I stumbled onto this one.I try to scoop the litter boxes daily longest I go is 2 days but only when I'm ridiculously busyPROSclumps welllow no odortracks very littleflushable but not in large quantitiesLight enough to walk home from the store withdoesn't stick to my cats furCONSsometimes my cats bat around a pellet or two on the floordusty out of the bag and while scoopingOTHER BRANDS*The Sweatscoop litter tracked everywhere and attracted little bugs I noticed them mainly in new boxes! Urine would cause big clumps to stick to the bottom of the litter pan and scraping them off incited terror that chunks would fly up and hit me in the face I had to use so much force that yes chunks occasionally would fly it was gross*The corn worlds best litter smelled so weird right out of the bag that I could not put up with it for more than a day! It clumped well but tracked everywhere because it was so light and also would get all over my kittens fur not cool. The smell is the worst part thoughThe memory of it still makes me cringe when I think about it.*Good mews recycled paper smelled horrible out of the bag was heavy looked gross in the box and was not flushable. It only started to smell worse once my cats used it.
    Green Tea Litter Works really well with clumping and eliminating odorReally like it. Actually smells like green tea near the litter box. On the down side it is really light and scatters easily if you have a noncovered box. Hate the shipping cost. Have to find local retailer.
