Ultra Pearls Cat Litter - 99.9% Dust Free, Low Tracking, Soft on Paws, Fragra...

I hated doing the litterbox more than anything else - I'd change poop explosion diaper first, honestly. This litter has changed my LIFE. Pros: - NO CAT SMELL. We had guests that literally commented on this. NOTHING. Occasionally there will be a poop smell (my cat isn't always great at burying poop), but it goes away within minutes. AMAZING. SO AMAZING. - Crystals very effectively absorb urine, most of the time. I stir it every night (takes 5 min or less) and scoop the poop out, and sometimes there are still wet crystals, but a quick stir fixes it immediately. - Less tracking. My cat still tracks it out, but NOTHING compared to previously with clay litter. I have a litter catcher pad right outside the litterbox, and this catches most of it. Cons: - Dust. There's a lot when you first pour it in, then none for two weeks, then dust again when I do the nightly stir. I wear a mask, problem solved. My cat does not seem to create the same dust when she uses it after the two week mark though, or isn't bothered if she does. - My cat is a digger, and one bag was so, so not enough. I buy two bags, and in my large box, I get about a 3-4" depth. More expensive, but WORTH. IT. - Even with two bags, it only lasts a month before my cat turns up her nose at it and the crystals stop being effective at absorbing urine. This might have to do with my cat, as she was previously feral and will pee very few times a day - meaning when she does pee, it's a LOT. The crystals may not be able to absorb such a large volume at once after 4 weeks. Annoying, but I don't even care because of the pros of this litter. My cat switched to this litter all at once with no issues, but since she was at one point feral, I don't think she's terribly picky as long as she can dig in it. I highly recommend this litter, especially if you want all the good parts of having a cat, but not the horrific, classic litterbox smell.

Amazing litter! To put in perspective how badly I despise *clay* litter....I would rather wear pants made out of steak & walk through a lions den than to ever have clay litter again! The way even the bougie-est clay litter turns into freaking cement when cats pee on it. Nope. Not for me. But this gel litter? Fantastic. It cuts down on smell bc the gel absorbs the urine and then literally all you have to do is scoop the poop. Also, if you want less tracking, or if you have cats that dig an insane amount, get this particular one bc the "pearls" are bigger and track less than the other styles of gel. As for how much you need. A Little cat math for you, lol: So the product description states that you can have one bag for one cat for one month. Unless you have a cat with medical issues who urinates more frequently, I'd say that's fairly accurate bc I have a friend who uses one litter box for 2 cats (one full bag of litter at a time) but replaces every 2 weeks. I personally have 2 litterboxes for 4 cats (one full bag per litter box) and also replace every 2 weeks.

This review is for the Blue bag- for some reason when I try to review the pink bag with small ball crystals, THIS comes back up! ?? Anyway, I've used this Ultra litter to layer on top of clumping litter to help control smells with 8 cats (we do have several boxes). It eventually does get mixed in as you scoop, but one half to whole bag of this in addition to clumping litter, depending on the size of the box, makes a HUGE difference in the reducing smells and makes the box of litter last SO much longer before changing the entire box. Also the reduction in dust is AMAZING!! We have too many cats and too many boxes to only use this litter, I'd go broke, but even just part of the box helps on the dust. My only slight negative is these crystals do track a bit out of the box, and we have two cats who seem to not use this box as much as the others (I use the Ultra Micro Crystals, pink bag also, see other review) so I don't think they like the bigger crystals on their feet. It does seem to be absorbent, though I wasn't sure at first. The crystals will start to yellow when they're used up. You will need a wide slotted/hole scoop to get the poo out (and clumps in my case) and not lose the crystals that are still good. Overall definitely worth it, even though cost wise it's more expensive per pound than the clumping litter we use. The pink bag does not track as much as the blue bag does.

Contrary to packaging claims, one bag does not last a full month. I have to switch mid month for two reasons: 1. Pee pools on the bottom. I stir as per directions which helps it evaporate but it still smells bad. 2. The crystals are too big to fall through the scooper grate and I end up throwing away a certain amount of crystals each time I scoop poop, which is daily. I’m going to try and find a scoop with bigger holes in the grate but who thought I’d ever be spending my precious time on earth searching for big- holed pooper scoopers? Overall though, the unpleasant odor is much more tolerable than with clay litter. It’s not ammonia, more like a muted sickly chemical smell which doesn’t bug me quite as much.

This is more cost-efficient than clay cat litter by far, and I cannot smell a thing from the cat box. Also, it doesn't stick to my cat's feet like clay does and thus doesn't get tracked around the house like clay litter. A grain or two can get caught between my cat's toes and get flicked on the floor as she's stepping out of the litter pan, but that's it. The sharp glass-like silica crystals ARE as sharp as legos so I recommend to sweep regularly around the pan or wear house slides. Usage advice: You can visibly see the crystals that have absorbed a lot of waste, and I economize by scooping out the untouched crystals and topping up the pan with them after I dump out the waste. I find that liquid waste tends to filter down to the bottom of the box and form a layer underneath the less-soiled crystals, so keep an eye out for that. Be sure and wear a mask that filters well and seals well to your face when you're pouring it if you are at all sensitive to dust. I personally find breathing it in to be irritating to my nose and throat and sinuses. To my understanding, it's far too small of an exposure to cause health damage just breathing in the dust a little bit as your change the litter box every week or every other week, but I just find it unpleasant. It's unavoidable to have a fine powder of silica dust amongst the larger grains, so it's not an issue of false advertising or anything, just the nature of the material itself. If you have asthma, be cautious, and it's worth pouring it into the litter pan outside if you can. Overall evaluation -- if you have a cat and you're not using this type of litter product, you're doing your nose and your wallet a disservice.

I bought this item by total accident. I meant to buy the soft pearls in the green bag by the same company. These are like shards of glass on my poor Kitty's feet and I know that they're sharp because she tracks them everywhere! This litter is a mess. First of all, it doesn't absorb the urine at all, even if you stir the product with the litter scooper. The urine puddles on the bottom and stinks. She can't bury it properly and gets frustrated and kicks it out of the box everywhere! This is the messiest litter,it's messier than clay. I absolutely hate it! I will never buy it, and never recommend it. I'm surprised that they even sell this given, that the other two litters in this line are actually pretty good the pink one is okay but the one in the green bag (fresh micro) is the best out of all of them. It doesn't make a huge mess. It helps trap and get rid of urine odor, and it actually does stand up for about a month exactly. But try stepping on this litter in your bare feet and imagine what your cat feels like! They discontinue products for hurting children why do they not discontinue products that would hurt pets? It's only been 3 days but I'm going to throw out all of this litter as soon as the one I actually wanted arrives on Tuesday. It's not worth it

I have tried many different cat litters. I finally found one that works well for my cat! This one the odor I can’t smell at all! I do like that it can last for a while, but with my big baby last maybe 15 to 20 days. My cat is also pretty messy so he flings the little crystals out of his litter. Overall, I think as a one cat household this has been the best kitty litter I have purchased. For me, I couldn’t stand the smell of the others. I’ve tried and this one does a really good job with odor control.

If your goal is to be awoken from sleep by hearing a very loud noise that you cannot identify, buy this litter. I have a top-entry litter box, so maybe it created an echo chamber, but my cats scratching around in this stuff scared the living heck out of me! The crystals are huge and a lot of them don't sift through the scoop, so I feel like im wasting quite a bit. I have been using this brand's micro-crystals and it's SO DUSTY so I thought I'd give this a try. Not much dust so I gave an extra star for that. But there's just something about the bedazzled poop that I can't stand. I will not be purchasing this again.

I've been using clay litter and the dust bothered my asthma plus I have an American Bully who was wheezing and rasping from the dust so decided to try this product. Noticed a huge difference immediately in my and my dog's breathing. There is no odor at all which shocked me and so easy to clean. Btw- I am not paid or receive free products for my review and am genuinely happy I tried this product. I admit it costs so much more than clay litter but think about what the dust from the clay litter is doing to your cat and to you. If you love your cat.....at least try this product once and you seriously will not regret it. I have 2 cats and had to dump the litter box of clay litter almost everyday and the smell of ammonia was terrible. I only change this litter about every 2 weeks as the beads soak up the urine and I scoop the poop almost immediately. I buy alot from Amazon and this is the one thing I highly recommend.

I like it so m7ch better then clay/sand litter. Keeps the smell away so much better! There is some trackinh right outside the litter box, but its quick and easy to coean up. A lot less tracking then clay litter. I had tried a different brand, but my cats paws looked dry and irritated, this one has smooth crystals which is much more gentle on her paws. Took my cat a few days to get used to the change and she doesn't bury her poop anymore, which is ok woth me because i clean it up right away anyways. Live the subscription too, reminds me of when i need to change it.

This litter is very loud due to the large crystals and it is also uncomfortable the cats paws. Because if the discomfort they will not dig into the litter and all their "business" gets left on the top and the odor doesn't get covered. The absorbancy isn't very good as all the pee flows through the large crystals and straight to the bottom of the litter box creating a large puddle at the bottom. The large crystals also cause issues when trying to scoop the litter as the crystals get caught in the scoop. I don't recommend this product at all. It's worth it to spend the extra money on Pretty Litter instead of this product.

This litter is the best of all the types offered by this brand. I’ve tried the smaller granule clumping ones and the just made big gross gooey clumps that were nasty to clean. This one leaves no scent. It’s easy to clean. Relatively no tracking. I scoop frequently and fully change the box mid month and it all works perfectly! I also use a litter box with a guard on it and highly recommend it! My guy is happy :-)

It does stop the odor but that’s where the good part ends. The little is so large, it renders my sifting cat litter box useless. My carpet is littered with big blue crystals. This is one purchase I regret.
