    Clumps well but dusty

    The product was very fine when I added it to the litter box-sand like in consistency. When time came for scooping there were definite clumps that didn't break apart. It was very dusty though almost needed a mask.

    Perfect for clumping and odour-control

    Excellent clumping that makes cleaning the litter box easier. I noticed the clumping consumes a lot of litter so might have to purchase this litter more often. It is scented so it masks odours well, however scent might also be an issue for some cats and owners. Tracking isn’t relatively less so that’s good.

    Good product

    Got a chance to try this cat litter and we do like it, as well as our three cats. It is very light weight which is great. Clumps well, isn't super dusty either. Works well in our litter robot.

    Hardballs make it easier to scoop

    ARM & HAMMER™ HardBall™ Clumping Litter is lightweight and claims to make scooping easier and less messy by shrinking the waste, and claims to also reduce odour.

    I am using this litter with my 2 cats, and I have to say, it really does help reduce the amount of odour I notice. It smells fresh after every time I scoop it. I normally notice the odour more after a couple of days, but this has stayed fresh.

    As for the less mess, I find the pee does form into easy to scoop balls, but the poop doesn't really harden or shrink. It does stay together a bit better, so there aren't as many loose bits to scoop.

    One big plus is that there is no dust that I have noticed in the week or so that I have used the litter.

    Overall, the reduction in odour and dust make this litter a winner for me.

    I’m a bit torn, definitely some positive features

    I’m a bit torn on this one. There are definitely some things I liked, but a few key drawbacks.

    Pros:
    The litter is super lightweight, which made it really easy to carry and pour—huge plus if you're used to lugging around heavier options. My cat took to it right away with no issues, which is always a relief when trying a new litter. It also did a great job neutralizing odors—no lingering smells from the litter box. The clumping system is great and easy to clean.

    Cons:
    The camomile scent is very strong. While it does mask unpleasant smells, it was honestly a bit much for me—kind of overpowering. Also, the sandy texture tracks easily and ends up all over the floor, which adds to the mess and cleanup.

    Bottom line:
    It’s not a total miss—some good features if you’re looking for a lightweight, odor-fighting litter.

    Light and clumps really well

    My cat has been used to a different litter so did take a few days to adjust. It’s very fine and with an elderly 17 year old it did stick in between her paws a little but the clumping is exceptional and very easy to remove. Not enough stockists as had to go to a Walmart over an hour away to find The scent is pleasant and not over bearing and conceals smelly times very well

    Great kitty litter

    I’ve been using ARM & HAMMER™ HardBall™ Clumping Litter for my cat, Sadie, and I’m really impressed! The clumps are super solid, making scooping a breeze, and it does a great job at controlling odors—even with multiple cats. I also love that it’s low dust, so there’s less mess around the litter box. The only downside is that the fine texture can track a little, but overall, it’s been a game-changer for keeping things fresh and clean. Definitely worth trying if you’re looking for a reliable clumping litter!

    Great product for cats

    This was a great product I was able to try through Butterly. It had minimal dust and maximum clumping. It made the waste clean up really easy. I found the box lasts about 10 % longer than other products.

    Lightweight litter

    I was very excited to try this litter, as the one I currently use is so heavy and very dusty. This was a game changer in both departments.

    It was very easy for me to lift the box, and having a very light, sandy texture, it was easy to pour into the litter box and not make a mess. When I normally scoop my old product, dust gets everywhere and I have to take an allergy pill some days, but not with this one. There is zero to little dust that I have noticed, which is so beneficial to both myself and my cat.

    It doesn’t scoop into a perfect little circle, but it does make a nice, easy to clean clump. Some days my cat wasn’t even covering up when he was done and now he is, so I’m going to say he is really enjoying this litter.

    When it comes to odour, I will say overall, once it’s scooped, the box itself and room the box is in smells clean and fresh. However, when my cat does his business, even when he does scoop it, it does still smell badly sometimes, so it doesn’t always completely cover up the odour.

    My cat took right to it and seems to like using it. As said, he’s even been covering it more since using this litter, which is amazing. I only have to scoop it regularly instead of changing it completely every few days. This cat litter has been a real game changer for us and I would absolutely recommend this for your furry friends needs.

    Great Product.

    I received a coupon, to try out this litter, from Butterly. Soft as sand. Does what it claims, creates hardballs of spent litter, that doesn’t fall apart upon scooping. Very scented. Wished they would make an unscented choice, as this one is very fragrant. Little to no dust noted. My cat used this litter, almost immediately upon putting it in the box. I would buy this product again, but would suggest making an unscented product.
