Q: How does this differ than the cat litter for single cats?
submitted by ProudMom - 4 years ago
A: Thanks for asking. Although we can't speak to other brands, we have tested our clumping litters with multiple cats, and the activated charcoal helps to absorb the odor of multiple cats when used as directed.
submitted byPurina - 4 years agoBrand expertA: Marketing ploy by Tidy Cats, it works the same whether you have 1 cat or 4, using the litter box.

Q: Is it flushable or not
submitted by Lynda - 2 months ago
A: Thanks for your question. Please know that Tidy Cats Litter is not flushable. Even if a litter is labeled flushable, it can cause plumbing problems. Bag your old litter and toss it in the trash, not in the toilet. Learn more about the do’s and don’ts of cat litter here: https://www.purina.com/articles/cat/litter/cat-litter-box-tips.

Q: What are the blue-colored pieces in the litter? Are they a different material than the gray clay?
submitted by Yerdua - 5 months ago
A: Thank you for reaching out to us and taking interest in Tidy Cats Free & Clean Unscented Clumping Cat Litter. Great question! While this litter doesn't contain blue colored pieces, it has black pieces and these are activated charcoal from coconut shells. They are added to help absorb and control odor. Please know that the litter products we produce are manufactured on the same production equipment. We use an equipment flushing step prior to the production of Tidy Cats Free & Clean to minimize the presence of any other litter formula components. It is possible that a carryover did occur as we changed from one formula to the next. We apologize for any inconvenience. If you have additional questions about our litter or if we can help further, please feel free to reach out to us here: www.purina.com/contact-us - The Tidy Cats Team

I used to love this litter. It was the only kind my cat loved too. Now she's going outside of the box. It doesn't have some blue odor controlling pieces anymore. There is dust everywhere. It is much more similar to the lightweight now. I wouldn't be surprised if they changed it to cut costs. So disappointing. I used it for YEARS. I'll be bringing my business elsewhere. :( I already emailed them to complain

Hands down the best cat litter out there. The scented ones are too strong and arguably make the smell worse. I hardly ever smell the litter boxes with this one and the tracking is surprisingly minimal.

Changed the formula…

Changed the formula. Now it just congeals and barely clumps. Clumps stick to the bottom of the box and roll up when attempting to scoop the “clump”. Lots of dust, tracking and the odor is no longer absorbed. Have used this formula for years but no longer the same dependable formula. Use to be light gray and dependable now it’s dark gray and doesn’t fully clump and leaves little tiny particles of the “clump” throughout the box. The cap that was greenish was the great formula, the yellow cap is the new unimproved formula. With so few “unscented” litters on the market, it is sad that what was a great product has been ruined by someone trying to “improve” what was already a great product.

I have been using this product for about a year now, and the most recent tub I bought is a completely different color and texture (dark gray and sand like, when it was light gray and large granules). The odor control that used to last 10 or so days is completely gone, and it no longer clumps but just congeals on the bottom of the litter box. Even with a stainless steel box, it still sticks! I will most likely make the switch to a different brand unless Purina confirms the changes, and will be telling anyone who I recommended this litter to not to use it.

Came here to reiterate that this is not the same product I have been buying for YEARS. This new litter is dark, doesn't clump, and STINKS. I've also noticed what appears to be irritation on my cat's lower abdomen, which may have been caused by this product as nothing else in the routine or environment has changed. Won't be repurchasing.

Worst litter EVER

Chonky - 28 days ago
This is THE absolute worst litter I’ve ever used in my entire life even though it is good for odor. But the clumps turn into absolutely IMPOSSIBLE to clean mud inside the litter box. It feels like I’m trying to shovel out concrete with a spoon. And I have a very large and weighted stainless steel litter scooper and i can’t even scrape the wet litter out. I literally took a high pressure hose to my litter box outside and STILL had to struggle to manually and painstakingly remove the wet litter and to top it all off it tracks EVERYWHERE I was constantly sweeping up and cleaning litter off of all my surfaces not just the floor, so it was absolutely disgusting and I saw muddy little paw prints 🐾 everywhere too. So it wasn’t bad enough to have such an extremely difficult time cleaning out the litter box itself, but my house had to be sterilized even more. Instead of having tight little individual clumps of urine, it would become one gigantic massive chunk of heavy clay that would need to be removed. It’s incredibly wasteful because I clean the litter box every day so it’s like a litter would have to be replaced pretty often. Not effective disgusting and completely wasteful and expensive. I give it -5 stars

I actually looked up this website just to leave this review. This use to be the best litter I'd ever used, but you've clearly changed the formula. It use to be a light gray, with found ball litter pieces and completely dust free. It's now a very dark gray, almost powdery sand like consistency, and completely dusty garbage. It honestly looks like dirt. It's bad enough that you jacked up the prices during covid and never lowered them. I can get bargain litter for less if I wanted this hot mess. I'll be switching back to Arm and Hammer.

You and me - 1 month ago, Verified purchaser
I originally purchased this cat litter for two reasons. One, is that the price was right, less than I've been paying for other cat litter. Secondly, the container itself had a screw top which in my opinion is better than trying to puncture a hole in the side of the container. There's a perforation but it hasn't worked well for me. Regardless of those two positives, I won't be purchasing this again. This has been the worst cat litter for tracking that I have experienced. I found cat litter all over our house. It's as if my cat is walking into the litter box and bringing the cat litter with him. I'm having to vacuum, and sweep everyday because of this. Huge disappointment. My experience, they all track to some extent but this has been the worst..

Something has changed! I have used Tidy Cats® Free & Clean® Unscented Clumping Cat Litter for a very long time. I have allergies so this was the only litter that didn't bother me. It has also worked very well for my multiple cat household of rescues and fosters. The odor control was great and you could walk in my house and not smell that we had 7 cats in here. This last 10 refill packs - the litter was dark grey (had been light grey/white in color) and it doesn't clump like it was and my house stinks! because it is not clumping or holding the odor. It's also affecting my allergies. The cats are unhappy with the litterboxes and some decided to use the carpet. It's been a huge mess all the way around. I'm very UNHAPPY customer. I don't know if the formula was changed or there was an error in a batch but I will no longer buy this product. I'm going back to the drawing board and hoping something will work for my allergies and making the cats happy again with their potty boxes.

Came to leave a review and see several others already with my same experience; something has changed. It does look different and is sooo dusty now. It is tracking worse as well. The lid color and container handle changed awhile back and that was when I noticed the change in the actual litter. I spoke with someone at Purina/Tidy Cats and they were adamant that there was no change at all. Not the best customer service when it’s obvious something is off. So.. will be finding another brand now.

This cat litter is terrible, it sticks to cat’s paws and tracks all over. My cat had been licking it off her paws and it was the cause of her serious constipation, it expanded inside of her. We had to have X-rays and an ultrasound to find this out, spent thousands because of this awful litter!

Changed formula... I've been using this product the last 1.5 years or 2 years about and the last few batches I've purchased have not only been a different color which is not necessarily bad but it's been obviously a change in the formula because the pee used to clump like 95-100% and now it clumps idk maybe 60% or even less. It ruins the litter and it's smellier because of it. I purchased this specifically for the clumping and now it's not doing that anymore... Why bother changing a good product. Did they think we wouldn't notice?? Crazy
