Pettex Pampuss Woodbase Cat Litter 30 Litre

Forgive me if this is a little long-winded, but when I first bought this type of litter I had only ever used "gritty" litter and I didn't know how to use pellets properly and had to search on the internet! I'm glad I did or I would have been throwing away perfectly good litter! So, this is aimed at helping folk who have never used this kind of litter before or been given any advice on "how to". I find this litter is very long lasting, and a good price. I have one cat and have had this bag for nearly 2 months now, I reckon there is still 1-2 weeks' worth of litter left too. It arrived in a very sturdy, obviously waterproof bag, with an address label on, so no excess packaging. An added bonus for me is no lugging heavy litter home from the supermarket/pet store. Firstly, I scoop as soon as she poops usually, and I just use Tesco nappy sacks, a squirt of dettol air freshener into the bag, tie it and place it in the bin, outdoor or indoor depending on the weather. Provided you have a lidded and bin lined indoor bin, you shouldn't get odour leakage - we don't. Even though we have a hooded litter tray there is no getting away from the fact that whatever type of litter you use, cat poops smell terrible! I don't think there is a solution for that problem, it's just part of being owned by a cat! We have a can of Oust on standby for those moments and throw the patio door open. All that said, a couple of times she has pooped overnight and buried it, and when we entered the room in the morning there was no poop smell in the air or even around the litter tray, just the smell of the wood pellets. So I would guess, if your cat buries her poop and you are out all day, you may find the house will not be smelling when you arrive home. That was our overnight experience anyway.My cat likes to dig and bury, so I usually put a nice deep lot of litter into the freshly washed and dried tray at the start of the week and then daily separate the usable pellets from the sawdust. I've found, provided I use a good depth of litter at the beginning of the week, I don't need to add litter during the week at all. Additionally, the tray really doesn't need washing unless there's been some kind of accidental poop contact. To separate the litter, I push all the litter to one end of the tray, take it a scoop at a time and sift over the empty end of the tray. I have a sturdy carrier bag (make sure there are none of those little holes in it!) by the side which I empty the pellets into from the scoop as I go. You end up with a tray with sawdust in it, and a carrier bag full of usable litter pellets. The sawdust can then be emptied into the bin, the compost, the garden, as you see fit because obviously it's biodegradable. I agree with the comments where people say, it literally just smells something like a carpenter's workshop, it's that woody smell, you don't smell urine at all. Once the sawdust has been emptied from the tray, I just pour the pellets from the carrier bag back into the tray, level it out with the scoop and it's ready to use again. Nearer the end of the week you will see the litter level has gone down but there is still plenty for purpose. My guide is that I can't see the tray through the litter, if the tray shows through, it needs more litter. I sift the remaining pellets at the end of the week, wash and dry the tray, then I pour the sifted pellets in from the carrier bag, add a good amount of new litter, mix it all together and the cat is perfectly happy with this. I've had no problems with her refusing to use her tray at all. So if you can spare the time, sifting the pellets from the sawdust is definitely the way forward, you can save yourself a lot of money by doing it this way. As I say, this 30 litre bag will end up lasting me just over two months. I don't think I'd ever go back to "gritty litter" again! For info, I've added a picture of the sawdust you are left with after sifting, and a couple of pictures of the pellets which you are left with after sifting. As you can see there is nothing wrong with the pellets, even though the litter tray had been well used for number 1's!

This is really good cat litter. We initially used the gravel type litter but everyone we tried, even the expensive ones, were full of dust which is nasty. It was leaving a layer of dust everywhere and it’s really bad to breath this in.We tried sawdust, shredded paper then garden compost for a while which was cheap, non dusty and not smelly but then we decided to try the wood pellets as we could get these delivered so more practical. So pleased we tried it as it’s so much better than anything else.You do get some dusty type bits right at the bottom of the bag, but it’s just small bits of the wood so not like dust which you can breath in.It doesn’t really have a smell, just a bit of a woody smell which is ok.It doesn’t hurt half as much as the gravel type when you tread on it!It doesn’t get walked round the house either as it can’t really get stuck in the cats paws.It absorbs well and is easy to scoop out and see what has been used and what hasn’t.It’s a bit lighter than anything else so helps when putting in bin bags to put out for collection.All of our cats use it whereas some did or didn’t like the gravel and compost and everything else we tried!Having it delivered monthly is so much easier too, maybe not for our delivery driver but it helps us.So overall, having tried everything I’d recommend this type of litter over anything else.

This us a brilliant solution to cat litter. My initial thoughts were it looked like guinea pig food and wouldn't he cats accept. No issues whatsoever .The pellets absorb the 'liquid waste' and expand and fall to pieces . BUT even after a day there is no eye-watering ammonia smell literally a faint pine smell .To remove the used litter simply sieve or use a sieve litter tray. Fully compostable so no land fill. I everything it could be put on the garden as is and dug in .
