Dr Elseys Cat Attract Clumping Clay Cat Litter 18-lb Bag

Okay, this litter works! I was worried that my outdoor adult cat would be unable to learn to use the kitty litter. After a recent trip to the vet and a cone placed on her head, poor kitty is not allowed outside for the time being. I followed the vet's suggestion to put the kitty litter by the door where she usually heads out to do her business and mix some of the garden soil in the litter. She didn't use it immediately but finally did this morning after a grueling 48-hour wait. I thought she was going to burst on our carpet or couches! But she finally succumbed to using the litter. Even with the garden soil mixed in, it's easy to spot where her waste is and even easier to scoop up. It clumped well and was easy to clean. The price is quite high, but you get the value for the money in this litter because of its attractive quality. I will buy one more bag of this before switching to a regular litter, hoping we can finally house-break our cat. Because we mix our litter with the garden soil, there is a significant smell. This is because the poo and pee isn't completely covered in the kitty litter. Once we transition to 100% litter, I'll return with an updated review! I do like that there is no other scent in the litter, so the soil smell she's used to is prominent and inviting. Read more

I was very skeptical about this product, I am pleased to state that it really works! I have a young female cat who has always had issues from an early age with the litter box (litter texture and scents) since I litter “boxed” trained (it was a low lipped training tray) her after their eye opened. I tried plenty from type, texture and litter scent and no scent, litter box covered and uncovered, invested in an automatic litter box ($500) to be sure she had a clean place every use, even a pheromone plug in for soothing and calming where her litter boxes were, a litter box set in the bathroom just for her, oh my gosh so much with little to no success. She kept going to the bathroom in the same wrong place. Finally, I stumbled on to Dr. Elsey's Cat Attract Clumping Clay Cat Litter, read a lot of information and reviews, and decided to give it a try along with changing the box from plastic to a stainless steel (I went with a high wall open top). It worked right away, first use!! It has been over a month now and she has been doing great with the change NO accidents. I didn’t notice any dust, it is very easy to scoop, hard clumping (so much better than Tidy Cat Multi-Cat) and I have no issue with odor. This product was really worthy of the value and peace of mind. Read more

So we had much of the same issues many describe here, found out about this litter on some blog and forums postings after researching our issue, cat peeing n many spots and not using the box, where her sister was doing nothing of the sort. We had almost kicked her out of the house to the porch, though our house is 2 cats and 2 dogs and all are part of our pack. Everyone else was feeling the problem. Got my lady and I arguing a small bit about how to deal with the issue. I had researched outdoor pet huts, and heated bowls, this is, right in our area, when the cold was hitting hard and we felt sorry for her, but she had resorted to peeing allover the dog beds which are a beast to clean, a heavy shag carpet we had to take outside, use 6 pairs of vice grips and clamp it to a fence, saturate it and clean with lots of detergent and urine neutralizer, and wait 4 days for it to dry outside... and more. Thankfully it was the places we COULD clean successfully. I had read about it, 14 minutes before our area petsmart was closing (only place around here that has it) closing and was desperate. Hopped up, and out got in the truck and headed to get some of this litter promised to make a difference. Realized they might not HAVE it in stock. Called and they didn't have any. Came back home disappointed, yet determined to get some. The next day at work, talked with a friend who also had the same issue and talked her into trying it at the same time. She grabbed some on her way home, as we picked some up at petsmart. At present amazon price, 8 dollars more expensive there, but we needed something immediately. We both chatted via FB about noticing it working immediately. Blown away. Since then I have ordered it a few times via amazon, one time it was WAY too clumpy. Like gooey when urine hit it. Thus, my 4 instead of 5 star review. Maybe a fluke, maybe not... nevertheless, it has, from what we've noticed had some inconsistent quality. BUT it HAS so far, solved or at least alleviated our issue. It clumps hard, it is heavy. It is not AS dusty. It is NOT scented. Like at all. It does NOT track around the house, as much. As long as you keep it clean and follow the directions (use a new box today, and every few weeks at least, DO clean your cat box, people).. it will work. Get the attractant here on amazon as well, use a small bit of that each time or every other time you add litter. KEEP YOUR CATBOX CLEAN. We have had one period of regression. We took her to the vet and they found no severe issues in this 14 year old cat. They DID find a few white blood cells in her urine, so they put her on clavamox which we are just finishing. We notice her howling like meows sometimes and THAT is the time it is time to get up and help her get to the box. We purchased Moist Pounce in a plastic container, and use it to reward her when and only when she uses the box. Treats are better with cats, used as training aids... and cats really respond to positive reinforcement. They don't respond not matter what you believe, to scolding: their minds are something people will never really truly understand, but negative reinforcement does not work. so go with the positive. Pay her more attention. Use a brush and pet her more. ON a regular basis. And take her to a vet, people. I know, an expenditure... but get her some help if you can. And give this a try. It COULD be what keeps you from disowning your cat, or being so mad at the friend you love that you nearly go out of your mind. Good luck and post questions, if I can answer them I will. Read more
