My vet gave me a sample for my kitty in order to prevent an infection that might result from clumping litter after surgery. My cat used it right away and it's actually a pleasant litter smell...fresh. I bought a 26 lb. Bag and am using it over two weeks now...plenty to go yet. I scoop out every potty and every poop and it's easy. Very good quality. It's easy to spot wet litter and a little heavier pellet shape. Highly recommend.
