This review is from: SCOOP AWAY MULTICAT LITTER - 25 Pound (Misc.)

So for weeks I suddenly started having issues with my cat and the litter box. It would be soggy, it would stick to bottom of the pan, would stick on the scooper and worst of all it would stick on my cat's rear paws. He would drag litter into the bed and eat/pull of the debris between his toes. I finally took a closer look at my litter pal and it said Scoop Away not my usual Fresh Step. But how could one sand litter be that bad compared to another? Well I went out and bought Fresh Step the next day and immediately the strong smell was gone, the soggy wet litter was gone. When my cat urinated it form a solid strong round chuck that didnt stick. Most important his digestive track isnt messed up as there is no litter to clean off his paws.

For whatever reason (probably good pricing at our local supermarket), we switched from Arm & Hammer to Scoop Away a few months ago. It seemed fine. A little overpowering but effective.

And then one of our two cats started to lick all the hair off her stomach, then she began to lick and scratch furiously between her claws and around her head. After three very expensive visits to the vet, and courses of steroid treatments and flea medication, we were no further along. The cat was constantly throwing up hair-balls (from all the licking she was doing) and getting very thin. Then our second cat started to scratch madly and my wife and I were getting very concerned. One day, while working from home, I cleaned out the litter tray three times just to keep it clean. It was that day when I noticed that my arms were very itchy and I had breathing issues. I changed the cat litter back to Arm & Hammer.

Now our cats are 100% back to normal, no more emergency visits to the vet, the hair is growing back on cat #1's stomach, and no more hairballs.

This was a scary situation. Vets and on-line discussion boards never touched on the cat litter as a potential problem but with our experience, I am convinced that Scoop Away was the root cause.

I sincerely hope that this post helps other cat-owners out there who may be experiencing similar issues and have no idea what to do about them.

I was one of those people that stubbornly refused to buy the clumping litter because I did not know what was in it or how if worked. I believed that untreated clay litter was healthier for my little angels. After receiving approximately 25 recommendations from other cat owners I finally relented and gave this product a try.

I am a little embarrassed that I took so long to try this product. There is less dust than with conventional cat litter. The cat waste is so easy to scoop up and remove that the litter pan is much cleaner than ever before. My cats seem to be much happier with this product.

We had a situation a few weeks back that required a fecal test and I was concerned that it wouldn't be possible due to this product. The vet assured me that the lab would not have a problem analyzing the sample.

I do have two minor complaints that are the only reason that I did not give this product 5 stars. First, the perfume is a little overwhelming. When my longhaired little ones first exit the box the floral scent if very evident. Second, if you don't get every speck of this stuff off the floor before you mop the result will be a streaky floor. I found this out the hard way and had to get down on my hands and knees and scrub the hardwood in the room where our litter box was located to remove the streaks. Please note it took 5 changes of water to make the floor acceptable, but not perfect. Make certain to remove the litter box, thoroughly vacuum and then mop. Don't do what I did you will regret the mistake.

Overall this in an excellent product that I strongly recommend
