Sustainably Yours Natural Cat Litter, Large Grains, 13 lbs

PRETTY expensive stuff (4x my usual litter cost), but... I had a plan; after reading the multiple, thoroughly excellent reviews, on-line/YouTube, ref: performance. I had previously settled on Purina Tidy Cats as my 'go to' litter of choice, after trying ten or twelve types of litter; from cheap clay, to the most expensive out there, over the past ten years. With few as one cat, and with as many as four. 23 lbs of Tidy Cats for $10.50 ($0.46/lb), at my local Dollar Store! The Arm & Hammer brand is only slightly less inexpensive, and basically equiv. (20 lbs/$10/$0.50/lb). I used ground walnut shell litter for a couple of years (~$1/lb, as I recall). Kind of expensive, though; and no better in the long run, it seems, than the Tidy Cats, or A&H litters, ref: dust, odor, & clumping (mediocre, all, at best, ref: clumping). So... I bought two bags of this $2/lb cat litter; and dumped both into my freshly-emptied, litter box (18W" x 26L" x 8 1/2"D, for my current two cats; that also have 24/7 outdoor access [less snow &/or extreme rain]). In this fair-sized litter box, it was less than three inches deep. I prefer four to six inches deep; as do my cats, it seems. So... both bags in the box; and ONLY this stuff. Tried it out - alone - for a week. And was I ever impressed!! Perfect clumping, and absolutely NO break-up; &/or lots of little stinky, urine-ized grains to hunt down with my big serving spoon. This stuff locks up fluid like no other cat litter I've ever tried or have seen! Near faultlessly; even on recent/fresh urine deposits. Breakup of urine clumps (and concomitant, annoying run down/cleanup of smaller, collateral urine/litter clumps/particles) has always been my bane, reference 'cleaning the box'. Now... problem entirely eliminated! However... the cost. Which is where my plan kicked in. Once the new litter had proven to be as good at clumping (even BETTER than claimed!), it was time to dilute it down with cheaper litter. In this case, two boxes (46 lbs, ttl) of Tidy Cats. So... 26 lbs of the Sustainably Yours litter ($52/Amazon, ttl)... thoroughly mixed with 46 lbs of Tidy Cats litter ($21/Dollar Store, ttl) equals 72 lbs of litter (about 6 1/2 deep); at a cost of... Holy Potatoes, Mama! - $73! For one 'full' (6"+) filling of my litter box. Ouch! Or... about $1/lb. Twice what I normally spend per unit weight on cat litter. And, sure enough - according to my hopes and plan... the litter MIX clumps every bit as good as the Sustainably Yours, alone! EVERY bit as well! In ALL respects. It's been almost 3 months since I filled the box with the mixed litter. Unwavering, perfect performance of the litter mix, thus far; but, finally, today, I just added one more box of Tidy Cats (23 lbs), to bring the box up to it's preferred level. So far, all I've removed is urine clumps & stools, covered in a thin skin of the litter... along with actual litter removal of ~ 3 lbs/mo. (only two (heavy) bags of litter/urine/feces lugged to the outside trash, in 3 months; compared to easily 2 or 3 times that much a month, previously). Not a single broken clump, and virtually no chasing down little bits; and wasting otherwise good litter getting them out (to keep the box as 'odor-fresh' as possible). Speaking of odor... better than average odor control; though, if your cat doesn't bury his/her urine/stool (like one of mine)... good luck. I just keep the box where I frequently pass by; and just scoop some litter over uncovered... stuff. Works fine; no objectionable odors, if 'stuff' is covered. Also, it seems - and very much as I'd hoped - that there is - knock on wood - no slowly accumulating/increasingly objectionable odor building up in the litter in the box, itself. I'm assuming, due to the efficient removal of the stinky elements; most of which I credit to the Sustainably Yours litter's exceptionally outstanding fluid control. Now... the issue is to see how many more dilutions of the Tidy Cats litter the box can sustain (at 23 lbs/addition), until the mix (slowly declining in the ratio of Sustainably Yours litter to Tidy Cats litter) reaches a point where the clumping effectiveness has lost enough capability to start annoying me. At the rate I'm going, I rather expect to get pretty far (6 or 8 months, maybe?). Once I reach that point, I'll be able to calculate the actual cost/mo./per cat of my new, so highly effective litter mix. Lastly, dust control/emanations. The Sustainably Yours litter seems to produce far less dust than the old walnut litter I used to use. Which made far less than does plain old clay litter (argh!). The Purina Tidy Cats and A&H litters seem to produce about the same amount of dust as each other - noticeably, but not particularly objectionably more than the Sustainably Yours litter, alone. My mix, falls somewhere in between. So... to sum up: The Sustainably Yours litter is fantastic; in all ways... except expense. However... it can be diluted with less expensive, middling/high quality litter to better mitigate the price of the Sustainably Yours litter. How much so? Check back every three months, or thereabouts. I'll amend this post, once I've more to report. Such as a final cost analysis. Grins

Deep down I have been looking for a good litter for a long time. We have had a natural litter for so many years and I just said enough is enough. This just isn’t helping. Every few weeks I had to take out all the litter, clean it and splash it and fill it up again, etc. . In the meantime, that litter lost its clean and freshness after just a few days. I was miserable. Every time I went to get a few pieces during the week it was miserable because that fresh smell was gone and the urine was just a mess. It didn’t catch any. =(. I just got so many white hairs and stress and anger. So, I was on the look out and I found THIS!! I am SO happy. And I don’t work for these people. This is sincere! It has not smell, picks up right away and when it does there isn’t a thing left over!! And this is natural. I can’t tell you how happy I am . When I go to pick up a few pieces, especially the solid urine, I want to sing! Ahhhhhhh…..thank you!! And thanks for listening! Phew

I use this with my Gen I and Gen III Litter Robots as well as my manual-scoop litter boxes -- it's the BEST sustainable, biodegradable litter I've ever used (if I had this with pets growing up, it would've been a game changer!) It's super fast clumping, incredibly easy to scoop, and is crazy easy to keep the Litter Robots clean. It weighs just the right amount to balance the sensors on the Robots (Oko sawdust or pine pellets do NOT work in the Robots.) In case you need it, this is also technically "flushable" litter in small quantities. I use a different "flushable" litter to "potty train" the cats to the toilets (yes, the cats use the toilet!), but this is my backup litter if i'm out of the first.There are only two slight drawbacks to this Sustainably Yours litter: 1) it's a food grade product (cassava and corn), so if the (used) litter gets warm in summer, it can attract bugs. I use a little food-grade diatomaceous earth and mix it in with the clean litter and have had no issues, but i had to learn that. 2.) it's made of super-fine light colored grains, so you can really SEE it being tracked. I've picked up using the honeycomb sifter litter mats outside the boxes, and I have a stick vac I use routinely near the "cat room."

I love that my cats love this so much and that it doesn’t hurt their paws. I got it because I love Jackson Galaxy’s videos and I take his advice very seriously, since he knows so much about cats and their behavior. I don’t usually buy things public figures suggest, but I know he also doesn’t usually make recommendations either so I thought it would be worth a shot.It clumps the pee really well, and I care a lot about how my cats are doing with their comfort and health, so trying this investment out was easily worth it. I was previously buying litter with little dust production, but I feel much better knowing this litter doesn’t produce dust.The only cons I have for this are that it’s just as messy as other litter in being tracked and the smell of pee when you’re scooping the litter is intense. The pros definitely outweigh the cons for me though.I’m happy in knowing there’s a possibility of my cats living longer healthier lives by changing over to this litter.

Sustainably Yours cat litter truly lives up to its claims! The clumps are solid, there's no odor whatsoever, and it doesn't have that unpleasant clay litter smell. I scoop multiple times a day, sometimes being a bit neurotic about it, but even on days when I can't get to it as often, there's still no smell. One potential issue could be tracking, as some others have mentioned, but I've found a solution by placing the litter box on the tiled bathroom floor with a mat underneath. This has significantly reduced tracking for me. While I do sweep frequently, it's a small price to pay for the complete absence of any odor. Sustainably Yours cat litter is definitely legit and worth every penny!

I was little bit hesitant about this litter as it is expensive compared to bentonite ones if you do kg to kg comparison. But this litter is lighter than bentonite, so it lasts longer and fills up the box more.Odour control is not as great as everclean, so I mix little bit of that to control odor better .Absorbing power is greater than bentonite.Amazon lowered price little bit and price slightly fluctuates, so I try to snag it as soon as price drops.

Better than intersand odourlock, all types of wood/tofu litters (have used both cature and okoplus ones), and all other cheaper litters.Best clumping ability that I've seen in any cat litter. Clumps don't break easily and it's very easy to clean up, even if the clumps are sticking to the edges of the litter box. Very little dust compared to all other litters even after weeks of usage. Almost no smell at all. Plus on top of all of that it's also biodegradable.The only drawback is that it's expensive (but 6kg of this lasts almost as long as 12kgs of intersand odourlock), and it tracks. A lot.

Literally no dust, good clumping and control odor well. It does track a little, but that's okay, all litter tracks. This is an alternative for Sustainably Yours Multi-Cat Litter Plus (purple) when I can't get that on Prime. It would be really great if I can get these litters in SG at the same price. I could actually get them here with free shipping as Prime member before, but seems like Amazon has stopped supplying these litters in Prime. Hence, 1 star was taken away. Otherwise the litter is perfect!

Pricey item, but it is fabulous. Absolutely NO odor and not much tracking either. Will probably buy to use when guests visit!

This litter is amazing. I got it as an alternative to clay and was not expecting for it be better than clay, but it is. There’s no litter box smell in the house, it doesn’t track any worse than clay, and it clumps very hard. You don’t get that wet litter gunk stuck to the box or the scoop. It also is lasting a long time because of how hard it clumps and how well it scoops.Highly recommend.
