Funny. I was looking for a flushable, non clumping litter for my mother. I found the Catspot coconut litter. I ordered a few bags today to try it out :)

Dr. Elsey Respiratory Relief because one of my babies has asthma. Odor control is seriously lacking, but it's the only clumping litter that doesn't make him cough, other than Sweet Scoop, which they are not crazy about.

Hi everyone! I’m curious to know what kind of litter you use as I am again on the hunt for a new litter.

I started Simon off on arm and hammer double duty and that’s been the only litter he’s seemed to like but every time he would use his litter box he would sneeze from the dust.

I switched to Dr. elseys respiratory relief which didn’t make him sneeze but he would get litter that would nearly turn to cement stuck between his toes and I clean his box everyday.

I tried Smart cat grass based litter and I thought we had a winner but he would try and nibble on a few pieces here and there. Quite a few people have said that about this litter, so anyways I stopped that.

I switched to Worlds best the lavender kind, he used fine for awhile but I can tell that he is not fond of the scent. He will walk by and act like he’s burying the whole box as soon as I replace it lol so I tried the original worlds best and same thing so now I think it’s the texture.

He sometimes will not cover up his business or he will scratch the sides of the box instead of actually covering it and I don’t want him unhappy with his litter. I also don’t want to keep changing it, I know they like consistency but due to various reasons mentioned I’ve had to keep changing. I was glad to get away from clay but as this point it’s a shame arm and hammer makes him sneeze because that’s the one he seemed to enjoy the most.

These have all been slow transitions by the way.

Anyways sorry for the rant, any recommendations would be great!

I have 3 cats and use a combination of SwheatScoop for multiple cats and the Weruva green tea and hinoki wood litters. It clumps well and controls odor. I scoop 3x daily though.

I use Feline Fresh - its pine sawdust essentially. They also make pellets, but my cat found the pellets uncomfortable. The sawdust is nice and soft underfoot(paw!). Bonus is that it is clumping and flushable.
