Qualicat Scoopable Cat Litter

My overall rating

Used to be the best litter on the market for the price, but they’ve changed the formula and it’s terrible now. Clumping does not hold when scooping, smell control is gone unless you add a box of baking soda, and needs replacement more often...   +

Used to be the best litter on the market for the price, but they’ve changed the formula and it’s terrible now. Clumping does not hold when scooping, smell control is gone unless you add a box of baking soda, and needs replacement more often with new formula which makes the initially inexpensive $9 price tag deceptive as you need to refill, clean, and replace way more often now. You’re basically also lugging 30kg’s of litter to the curb each garbage day. The final straw was the litter sticking to the cats paws because it turns to a mud when they pee with the new formula, which they then proceed to track with them everywhere they go!

I would recommend Almo Nature cat litter instead. The ~$26 price tag for the smaller bag is deceptively expensive until you realize that it lasts you the same time as four boxes of the Qualicat brand(aka $36 worth). Also it’s biodegradable and flushable, so you just scoop it into the toilette and done (no more garbage day dead lifts!). Smell control and clumping are excellent and the smaller amount you need in the litter box means less (mostly none except when they’re first checking it out) spilled on the floor!    -
