“I changed from the silica litter to Diatomite because I was constantly stepping on the rocks that seemed to travel around my house. OUCH! Unfortunately, there were other different problems with Diatomite. It really tracks all over the house. Also a new package only went for one week before the smell was overpowering and I had to go buy additional litter from the grocery store to make it until your new shipment arrived. I’m now going to try the finer silica and see how it works.”
“I used fine grain silica for a long time. The odor control was excellent, but didn't like the fine white dust all over my apartment. This past month I got diatomite litter. Love the texture, and minimal dust, but the litter smelled terrible when I opened the bag!! It smells of mold and mildew and every time the cat uses it the odor permeates throughout the home. The box is kept in and enclosed cabinet and I still smell it. I don't know if it's a fluke as I haven't seen any other reviews complaining of this. Going back to fine grain for next month...perhaps I'll give diatomite another try. All that aside, I will NEVER go back to clumping litter!!! Absolutely love the convenience of KPC!!”
“This litter was not the best for my cat. Within 2 weeks, the bottom of the litter box was saturated with urine despite me mixing the liter twice a day. The smell was strong. This litter was not for us.”
