An 18 pound bag of Dr. Elsey's Precious Cat Ultra, a clumping clay litter built on 100% bentonite. The granules are milled to a medium grain, sized between fine sand and the heavier classic pellets, and the formulation is 99.9% dust free.
In practice, the medium grain does two things at once. It binds tightly on contact, so waste sets into firm clumps that hold together on the scoop instead of crumbling and sinking, and it keeps liquid from reaching the floor of the pan. The weight of the granules also means less of the litter travels out of the box on paws. Odor control is rated for single and multi cat homes, using natural ingredients.
Works with sifting litter boxes and mechanical or automatic boxes
Hypoallergenic formulation
Scoop out the solid clumps as they form and top the box up with fresh litter to keep the bed at depth.
When setting up the box, pour enough litter to create a bed around three to four inches deep. A deeper bed gives clumps room to form fully without touching the bottom, which makes them easier to lift out intact and extends the time before a full box change is needed. For a single cat household, expect to go through the bag more slowly than with a multi-cat setup, where daily scooping and more frequent topping up will move through the supply faster. Storing the bag in a cool, dry location away from humidity helps the bentonite maintain its clumping performance; moisture in storage can cause premature clumping and reduce the effective life of the litter.
When comparing clumping clay litters, grain size is often the detail that matters most for tracking and clump integrity, and the medium grind here sits in a practical middle range that suits most standard box sizes and configurations. Cats that are sensitive to heavily scented products or who have rejected perfumed litters in the past tend to accept hypoallergenic formulations like this one more readily. The 18 pound bag size suits households running one or two boxes and offers enough volume to maintain proper depth without requiring immediate restocking.
