    PrettyLitter

    More cons than pros

    • Length of Use: 6–12 months
    Overall Experience:

    I have been using this litter for a little more than 7 months. I have 7 Persian cats and one domestic. Half the litter boxes are clumping litter and half are PrettyLitter. What I DO like about it is the lightweight, so my weekly litter trash is noticeably lighter, and for seniors, that is a big plus. But...that's really it. No one has had adverse reactions or illnesses related to it. I DON'T like that it is made in China even though it is a USA-based company.

    The litter turns yellow faster than anticipated, and sure, you only scoop out the solids, but it smells terrible just with the urine. Therefore, it needs changing frequently and it is more expensive. The bags at the PrettyLitter site are 2 lbs smaller than at Chewy also. There is also a gritty layer of debris around the litter box, so it DOES track just as much as the clumping. It also gives off a cloud of silica dust when poured in the pan. Wear a mask, or pour low and slow. Keep cats away during this. Most of my Persian cats prefer the clumping and I am not going to NOT have it as an option just in case it causes some to decide against the litter box altogether.

    I also bought 3 bags for my son for his 3 cats. He gave it away after a while since his cats refused to use it.

    I would only recommend it if you find lifting bags or pails of clumping too difficult and you have 1 cat, but with the caveat that not every cat will even use this.

    Pros and Cons:

    • Lightweight
    • No odor control with the urine; smells bad!
    • Expensive
    • Yellows quickly so must be changed frequently
    • Manufactured in China

    Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend
