The Best Cat Litter I’ve Used in Over 30 Years!
As a lifelong cat owner with over 30 years of experience, I’ve tried countless cat litters, and SmartCat All Natural Clumping Litter has quickly become my favorite.Why It Stands Out: 1. Clean and Natural Ingredients: Made from 100% grass, this litter is free from chemicals, clay, and fragrances. I love knowing it’s a safe and natural choice for my cats. 2. Superior Clumping: The clumping ability is incredible—far better than anything I’ve used before. It makes scooping quick and easy, with no mess or residue left behind. 3. Dust-Free: Unlike many other litters, this one is truly 99% dust-free. It keeps the air in my home clean, which is a relief for both me and my cats. 4. Odor Control: Despite being unscented, it does a fantastic job of controlling odors. My home smells fresh, and you’d never know I have cats unless you see them.Additional Benefits: • Lightweight and easy to pour. • Environmentally friendly and biodegradable.This litter has everything I’ve been searching for: clean ingredients, excellent performance, and peace of mind. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a healthier, more effective option for their cats!

Do your lungs a favor! Smart Cat is smart for your cat!
Before I ever used Smart Cat, I pet sat for some beautiful rescue cats whose owner was a committed user of this product. It was highly recommended to me that if I ever got cats, this was the product I wanted to use. A few years later, I did just that and didn’t hesitate to order the same product I’d used pet sitting. Several years later, the product quality was the same high quality as when I’d tried it the first time.I used it for a couple of years before Covid. Unfortunately, there came a point when we couldn’t readily get it, so I shopped where I could and picked up a popular brand name clay version in a local grocery store. Bad news! I hadn’t even considered the harm it could have done. In not too much time, my cat started wheezing and sneezing. I had never heard him sneeze previously and hadn’t considered that it could have been the litter. After all, it’s made for cat boxes! I’d also kept him as an indoor cat from the first day I found him.It wasn’t too long before I also started coughing and feeling a dry scratchiness in my lungs and throat. One day, I went into the bathroom and saw a noticeable layer of what I thought was dust on the top of the tank and bathroom shelf. I’m generally very clean, so I got out my rags and started dusting.It wasn’t dust. As I looked around the house, that “dust” wasn’t anywhere else to be found – only in the bathroom where I kept the cat’s litter box. I realized it was clay silt from the Covid kitty litter we’d picked up when we couldn’t get Smart Cat. I’d picked up several jugs of it at the time, not knowing how long Covid would last. Cat litter is one of those things that you want to keep a good supply of on-hand!By that time I was able to order Smart Cat again, so I did right away and dumped the rest of the clay litter I’d picked up as soon as Smart Cat arrived. We had no more “dust” after that, and in less than a week, we were both back to normal.I will not use any other brand or type of cat litter except Pioneer Pet Smart Cat grass seed litter. It’s a great product that keeps the cat’s box odor-free. I clean the box after my cat’s every use. I’ve been in people’s homes before where you can smell “cat” as soon as you enter the door, but not with Smart Cat!I order the large value-sized bag. I pour it into a smaller pourable jug (using a funnel so it doesn’t fly away) and keep it by his box. I pour the rest out of the bag into a 5-gallon bucket and with a snap-on lid on until we need to fill the jug again. So easy! When he goes potty, I scoop it right away into a small bag and tie it shut. At the end of the day, the bags go into the trash can outside. You would never know I have a cat!I will say that it does track a bit, but I keep a small, hand-sized brush and dustpan near the litter box. When I’m scooping, I just give the surrounding area a quick sweep. I also have one of those rubber litter-catching mats on the floor as he comes out of the box. It all helps to keep the tracking down. I also find that if I keep the box clean each time he goes, that I actually don’t use as much litter because I rarely need to empty the whole box. Consistent cleanliness saves on the cost!Pioneer Pet recently changed their packaging. I was concerned that I’d gotten the wrong product and called the company. They were very kind and explained the packaging change was for visual consistency when you see all of their products side-by-side. They guaranteed me that no changes had been made to the product. Peace of mind!I would highly recommend Smart Cat. I use about 2 – 4 bags/year depending on if I’m traveling or not. If so, then I’ll take a larger jug and use that with a disposable litter box, covered with a plastic kitchen bag when not in use. I pull it in and out of hotel bathrooms without a fuss, and we’ve always left a clean room behind. No complaints!I would highly recommend Pioneer Pet Smart Cat grass seed cat litter!

funny, last litter type i finally try and it turns out it is the best!
**my review on this litter type is based on cleaning our giant petmate litter boxes at least twice a day and often right after the poop smell hits my nose if i am home.**i couldn’t stand at how natural litters stunk the house up with their deteriorating used litter scent so i decided not to try this grass seed litter type. what a big mistake, could of saved quite a few dollars these last couple of years by not having to dump bad litter had i just given this a try. it is pricier somewhat (20lbs is like 40lb clay so really it is priced kinda like 1 and a half 40lb bag of dr. elsey litter) but, it literally does everything lots of us look for in a litter; low to no dust (depending on brand and handling – this one from here has low dust, petco no dust), clumps very well, no leaving cement piles stuck to boxes, no perfume/fragrant smell (to me it has just a light oatbran kinda scent), it is on the lightweight side, lasts longer than clay litters, and when waste is bagged into an odor blocking bags it doesn’t fumigate out of them like other litters do..The downside of this litter however is two things;1. it tracks everywhereeeee badly (worse than even light weight litters like micro crystals) and i have extra large honeycomb mats surrounding our giant litter boxes but, they still can’t stop this litter from finding its way around our house!!2. some cats want to eat it! not even one minute after putting this in one of our boxes, a cat that has never eating any other litter before got in box, sniffed litter and started munching away..the downsides are still worth using this litter to me, i much rather quickly vaccuum house everyday than have to breath in dust and have to dust my whole house every other day like i was doing with most other litters beforehand. no dusting is needed during week at all now (at least with other brand), even the small metal trash can next to box is still dust free!! as for eating litter issue, i fixed that by mixing in 20% of clump & seal multi-cat sandy litter that we use to use and that i knew wasn’t dusty. the C&S has a strong fragrant scent to it (why we quit using it, not too strong mixed with this litter though) so i think it deters the cat/s from eating the grass seed litter or at least i have not seen the cat nor any other eating it ever since (now i just add a cup or two of C&S once a week).I am buying the petco version and this seems to be the exact type to me with the exception that it has more fine particles in it and therefore is about 5% dusty (could be from warehouse storage/handling/etc). i am mixing it in with petco’s right now so won’t know if this smartcat works as well until it is majority of the litter in boxes. this smartcat is about 3-5 dollars cheaper for 20lbs at current $22 price and even more cheaper on subscription so i am now subscribing to 5 of these litter a mth since price is cheaper.4 stars for now because humidity is low/air is dry on east coast right now and i want to see how this litter holds up during warmer/humid days, and also see how it performs in the different litter box areas of our home, before rating it a 5. in past i had litter perform well in some areas of our home but not others and perform totally different during warmer/humid months, like the clumping micro crystal litter that works excellent in our upstairs hallway but, horribly near our dinning/kitchen area and the cat’s upstairs bedroom..will add these grass seed litter are holding up to 10 cats, that’s pretty impressive!update: used this solely in a litter box, no mixing and about 4-5 hrs later, the air in the cat room smelled weird, kinda like light poop smell. so much so that after i saw there was no poop in box, i search everywhere in room for poop and even checked the cat’s behinds!! the auto subscription i set up after buying first bag already shipped so got 5 bags to use and after that i am going back to using sophresh version that hasn’t left the air in other areas of my house smelling like lingering poop! Hoping however, that maybe i will be lucky and only the first bag had a smell issue.Update again: bad first bag! recent bag i opened from the 5 bags i received, did not stink up the room. In love with this grass seed litter and the sophresh version!! cleaning boxes takes no time at all now and even though this is unscented, it has still cut down on the horrid poop smells (due to high protein/fat food change & digestive poop related issues) from penetrating our house by a good 90% since we started using this type of litter..update again: grrr 3rd bag is stinking up our upstairs again! there seems to be a quality issue between bags, the second was great but, the first & third is not and i noticed when i was pouring some of the third bag with the previous bag that the third bag litter is a darker color than the second one..have 2 more bags to use, after that i will be sticking with petco’s version only, no smell whatsoever downstairs where we use petco’s only and thats per every bag so far (about 6).

have been trying to find an alternative to the good fine clay clumping litter I have been using as getting to heavy for me and also wanted something more environmental friendly. Have tried, wood,silicone, corn and walnut but either my cats would not use or the clumps fell apart. Discovered this litter on amazon ( but difficult to find even with the exact title) thought I would give it a try. Well,it’s lovely and fine and soft for cats paws , not dusty. really light to handle. and has no smell . even after the cats use it if they don’t cover quick enough, they can’t find were they peeed! it clumps into a rubbery clumps which holds together so easy to remove. I just shake the litter tray and they come to the surface and be picked out . ( no experience of poo as my cats only pee inside but go out to poo. ) The only down side of this litter is the price which I expect is because it comes from American. just hoping that some pet company will buy in bulk so we can get cheaper and easier in the UK. highly recommend

Honestly I don’t get the negative reviews — I literally buy this from Amazon so I can do a review here!To be fair, I once talked to a PetValu staff who seemed to be very knowledgable and told me that just like human, we’re what we eat and the same goes to the cats: so each cat would have totally different PH value and different things in the urine which ultimately resulted in the clump-ability of different litters.However that being said, after having used literally pretty much all the brands and all types of litter in the market (seriously, all of them! because I have a very finicky cat who would pee on the floor left you scratch your head off not understanding why!), this is really by far the best litter that I’ve ever tried, period! If it’s all possible, I would give it 6 stars!I only have two cats, but it’s 2 of 2 “kitty approved” 🙂 Both of them love it better than any other type and brand. It clumps really well — seriously, you don’t see any other litter company does the same demo like SmartCat by throwing a clumped litter like a ball and see how well it holds.Also it covers the smell really, really well. In the past, especially when we have heat alerts, my bathroom tends to have some sour leftover food type of garbage smell with the other natural based litter. But with this, even with the heat wave this year, my bathroom is perfectly fine!And really, there is no dust. — does it track? Of course! I haven’t come across ANY litter that my cats weren’t capable of tracking; seriously, zero brand or product! But with SmartCat it’s tolerable and also when you step on it, it won’t hurt and you won’t feel like you’re living at your beach house.Seeing is believing! — I attach a few pictures to showcase how well it clumps and how little it tracks (and for my other cat who doesn’t like to cover his pee or poop, the tracking is far less with my unique litter pan here!!)Yes it’s on the pricy side, but it really worth of every penny. I used to use the other famous brand of corn based litter, but now I’m a hardcore fan of SmartCat. I just wish I had come across that YouTube commercial and review much earlier and it would save me years of trouble with my litter problems!!

My cat was delighted to get more cat litter, she is very fussy, and being grass it is light, non smelling and clots beautifully.

We’ve had great success with this cat litter! My cat readily uses the litter box, which is always a top priority. It’s truly dust-free, which is a major plus for us — 5 stars on that front. The litter clumps well, making cleanup easier, though I’ve noticed some small pieces tend to break off. These smaller pieces can be tricky to scoop with a traditional cat litter scooper, as most have spaces that are too large. I’ve started using a skimmer spoon with smaller holes to catch these smaller pieces. While we haven’t found the perfect size yet, it’s been an improvement.We really like the natural scent of the litter. The scent actually makes scooping enjoyable. It does a solid job of controlling odours, though we should note that we scoop the litter box daily (sometimes even up to four times a day) because keeping it clean for our fur baby is very important to us.One downside is that, due to its small particle size and lightweight nature, the litter tends to track quite a bit. A good-quality litter mat is absolutely essential.Overall, very pleased with this litter, and despite a few minor adjustments, we recommend it for its dust-free quality, odour control, and clumping ability!
