Natural cat litter evaluation

A few weeks ago, a representative from Feline Pine Cat Litter asked me to evaluate their all natural cat litter product. Since I had used the regular Feline Pine litter (pellets) in the past, I requested the new scoopable formula to evaluate. I received my sample bag very promptly and have been using it for approximately 2 weeks. Here is my evaluation of this all-natural cat litter:

First of all, the bag is nice and light, so it's easy to pour the product into the litter tray. The product itself looks like sawdust, but it's amazing how it stays in place - no dust flies up when poured, with little to no tracking from the cats outside of the tray. The thing that impressed me the most is the odor control. Even when I stir up the litter while scooping out the waste, there is no ammonia or poo smell; all I smell is pine. I've been pretty happy with Sweat Scoop, another all natural litter, but Feline Pine does a better job with odor. Their website says the product absorbs and holds the ammonia, and it does just that. It is also very scoopable, and holds together well.

You may have read previous posts of mine about other all natural cat litters I have used. And I had used Feline Pine's regular pellet formula in the past as well. It is very good at odor control, and the only criticism I had was the pellets themselves, as my cats seemed to have trouble burying their business completely to their liking. I also posted previously about my favorite, World's Best Cat Litter. And I still do, but it is a bit pricey. All in all, Feline Pine Scoop is right up there with World's Best Cat Litter, at a cheaper price. So I think I've found my new favorite cat litter in Feline Pine Scoop.

    Thanks for the post. I am new to the "world of cats." Two weeks ago I rescued a feral kitten from the patio of a 1st floor apartment. It's been one heck of an experience. I never had a cat/kitten so I was clueless. I continue to learn and it's getting a wee bit easier.

    The only litter I knew about was Fresh Step or Tidy Cat. I bought Fresh Step and did not like it. I did some research on natural, organic, biodegradable litter, etc...and found World's Best. I'm very happy with their litter. I thought about purchasing the Feline Pine but I was not sure it. Now I know! If PetSmart is out of World's Best, I'll purchase the Feline Pine.
