So pleased to find this product available with Amazon Prime! Fresh Step crystals have been an absolute favorite since it was introduced. I remember my mother helping me with my first cat's (Siamese) sand box! Over the years since 1955, I have tried just about every litter system/boxes available. The fabulous felines who have shared my life (I'll be 72 December 27) included rescues, just arrivals and pure breeds. Persians with their long silky fur to those beloved domestic short/long hair have chosen Fresh Step when offered a choice. Doesn't irritate pads or stick to paws, furry tails or bottoms. I find the scent very agreeable (fresh and clean) . . . much better than toilet bowl cleaners! One little lady has long fur with a fluffy tail and she is meticulous in her grooming ritual (especially after being brushed). Now add a big gal that's a domestic short hair calico so I need litter that they will share. They have a triangular low side (lower step in area) litter box (available on Amazon). The calico enjoys seeing just how much litter she can scatter and the other is more concerned about her elegant puffy tail.
One bag of litter will last 3 weeks (change it once a week, need it or not) -- I use a third of the bag at a time (just right for that inch and a half depth) for their size box. Since I have an extra bathroom their box is in the shower. Guests may need to use the bathroom but no one has recognized that the decorative shower curtain allows for feline privacy! For best results, remember to scoop and stir every day . . . your feline/felines will thank you!
Multiple cats? How much time/effort for cat care? Eight cats and two large hooded litter boxes . . . too many cats per litter box (or just too many cats)? Half of a bag for each box and changed once a week wasn't unreasonable. Three males (neutered) and five females (spayed) had no complaints. Interesting behavior: the males choose one box and the females choose the other one. The boxes were scooped and stirred twice a day. Their boxes were kept in a large bathroom for easy access. Keep in mind that diet and water intake need to be considered. I prefer Science Diet or Iams. Drinkwell water fountains offer easy access to water. It may take a bit more time to keep all this clean but it keeps cats healthy and contented. Over the years I've come to realize that my felines' personalities were as different as those of my friends.

i WILL GO AS FAR AS TO say if you truly love your cats as your own YOU WILL ONLY BUY THIS FOR THEM
ever since ive had my babies (twin cat sisters) i picked this bag accidentally to be 100% honest. was new to the world of litter. however when this bag ran out and i went to buy the same thing, it was out of stock which is what it usually is where i live, OUT OF STOCK! so i went and bought another crystals litter for the time being, not thinking much! and lo behold my babies jumped in and out of the litter the whole day but would not do their business! finally end of day i started to get worried and called all the possible stores that could have it, found one at the other end of where i lived, hastily drove there and my babies appreciate the effort well! (if you know what i mean)so, to sum it up... its been 4.5 years now and never tried any other litter because i simply know THIS IS THE BEST! most expensive yes, but BEST and worth every dime. no smell, no wet clumps, no blocks and chunks of litter that completely become a rock and you have to change the entire litter every week!! babies LOVE it! runs for min 3 weeks up to 4 weeks 1 bag of 4 lb in a household of 2 babies WITHOUT ANY SMELL!now i stock up a carton of 8 bags at a time and for the first time have run out of my home stock waiting for stock to arrive in the store which does not arrive till august end hence ordered this online on amazon! cant wait for it to get here!!!ordering cat litter from amazon in emergency! yes, because my babies & this litter are WORTH IT!
