Question 1

Bought twice-1st time loved it, 2nd time stuck like glue to bottom of litter box.Has anyone had same problem? I added a few inches but it didn't help.

Accepted Answer

Yup.  We were using this litter for a couple of years and lately it  becomes a thick mess, like fresh concrete, on the bottom of the litter box and its a real pain to scrap out the wet litter.  We are now mixing it 50/50 with the "world's best kitty litter" because I don't want to throw it away and the "worlds best" while great at clumping is not as good at odor control.  Something changed in the manufacturing of this product for sure!

Question 2

what is the litter made of?

Accepted Answer

It's NOT dustless. To see this the best, watch and breathe as you tip (however gently) new litter in the pan. We get the best food, can't afford the best litter so found this to be the best (we were on Arm & Hammer but they changed and got super dusty), then price started going up this year so we went elsewhere. Have use dpine which is good, but you have to clean every day as its non clumping, just lays on top. Spending a bit more now on Wheat litter, NO DUST when you pour, cats are ok with it. Hope they cough less than with clay. Whats the point in the best food and then giving them clay (ALL clay litter produces dust and the cats are way more sensitive to it then us).

Question 3

How does this compare to "Fresh Step" when it comes to the amount of airborne dust?  Thanks!

Accepted Answer

We, too, used Fresh Step for years, until we discovered Precious Cat.  Unfortunately, all cat litter has dust that can become airborne.  That said, Precious Cat by far has the least amount.  We have seven litter pans in one area (currently four cats) and keep an air cleaner there as well.  Sweeping or vacuuming in the area daily is a must to keep litter from being tracked throughout the house, which gets crushed underfoot and can then become airborne dust.

Question 4

Is this litter sented?

Accepted Answer

No. The label/description is correct :"it controls odor naturally without perfume, deodorants or chemicals".This is an unscented litter vs some that say unscented but if you dig deeper (bad pun) you can find "masking scent" as seen in some air/room/fabric deodorizers.
