  • Awful chemical smell This cat litter smells ok right out of the container but as soon as my cat actually uses the litter something about the combination of urine and whatever is in the litter produces an overpowering chemical smell that saturates the entire room. This smell is worse than plain cat urine if that's possible and I nearly threw up when I scooped the litter box. I immediately switched back to my other brand of cat litter catattract.
    One of the worst I've usedbut maybe it's just my cats I have 2 14/12 year old cats who have always used a covered litter box and I've always lived with hardwood floors. This is the WORST tracking litter I have ever used. Most people are complaining about the smell which is kind of yucky but my biggest problem is there is litter all over my house. My dark hardwoods are covered I have to sweep/vacuum and mop several times per day. It's in the sofa it's even in my bed! GROSS! And I don't just mean a little dust or a few stray pieces. I mean their paws are completely coated with the stuff every time they exit the box. I also clean the box several times per day. I don't know what the problem is here but I'm revolted by this one. But like I said maybe it's somehow my cats because I don't see anyone else complaining about this.
    TIDY CATS SMALL SPACES GETS THE JOB DONE I love this litter. It does a great job. There is not a strong scent and my cats love it. My litter boxes are in a small space and it helps a lot. Especially now that there is more than one kitten in the house.
    Horrible smelling litter I agree that the cucumbermelon scent is horrible. It smells like rotting cantaloupe. It was in the back bathroom but the smell permeated the whole house especially after the litter was just used. I could barely go into the bathroom. I've used other Tidy Cat litters and they have been fine and I'm not sure exactly what variety this particular one was but the smell was really revolting. The cat litter smell would have been better. Honestly I've never smelled anything quite like it short of rotting garbage. It's like a chemical cantaloupe smell. It's coming out ASAP in favor of unscented litter or another type.In fact the smell was so bad that I took time out of my busy day to google Tidy Cat and melon to see if anyone else had had problems with it. As if I had nothing else to do. Really who has time to sit around Googling cat litter brands? That should tell you all that it was pretty bad.
    Love this Litter! AllergyFriendly I absolutely love this litter. I have tried several different litters and none have been better for my multicat household 6 resident cats plus the occasional 1 I catsit. Not only does it clump great reduce odors quickly 99% dustfree but the scent is not overpowering. I have both asthma and allergies so this makes a huge difference for me. My guests are usually shocked that my house does not smell with the amount of cats I have.Just a Side note I just recently decided to be cheap and bought a huge carton of the Arm & Hammer Fresh Scent MultiCat litter and it was by far the worst litter I have ever tried. The scent was SO overpowering and dusty that I had to wear a mask to scoop out the litter boxes. You could smell the litter the minute you walked into my house. I definetly learned my lesson and switched back to Small Spaces! Wal Mart & Target have the best prices.
    Warning! It's scented! As soon as I poured this stuff in the litterbox my nose was assaulted by a very strong perfumey odor. There was nothing on the outside of the package to indicate that this was scented litter. I called the company and was told that all their cat litter is scented with a cucumbermelon fragrance.My nasal pasages felt like they were burning so I ran right out and bought another brand.
    Okay litter horrible scent I just adopted a new cat and this was the only litter available to buy in the shelter. Considering I live in a tiny apartment I figured this would be a good buy. It's not as good as it seemsPros* My cat seems to enjoy the feel of it on her paws* It does what it claims kitty waste is clumped up for easy removable with very little breakage.Cons* It tracks all over the house. Everywhere.* It's scented and it's not even scented WELL. It smells somewhat like a rotting orange especially when cat urine hits it. No amount of kitty digging seems to get rid of the smell.
    Best thing ever! I was using Tidy cats immediate odor control in my bedroom which worked well to stop pet odors. However the litter itself stunk up my room so bad that I questioned the intelligence of bringing a cat into an apartment. Since I already love my new cat I couldn't take back my decision so I changed litter to this. It has a delightful smell that freshens my room and my cat barely noticed a change. It works well to keep his smells down too. I love this litter.
