Nullodor Cat Litter, Silica.

Seven or so years ago a feral cat decided my window was its passport to a land of wonders. I am not sure how right he was unless he considers wonders to be regular pouches of catfood half in a tapas bowl, three-eighths on the floor, and one eighth on his head as he jams his face in. Wonders may also include moving over the years from timorous approaches ending in a bite to angry approaches starting with a bite and ending in violent windmilling of his paws because he's going through Dreamies cold-turkey on advice of the vet. Wonders may or may not include excitedly mauling my new duvet for over an hour as I try to sleep immediately after he's eaten before making that familiar noise that instills desperate panic to tip him off. Either way, it's been a while and for all that time I never knew where he went to the toilet.It was an enduring mystery. Guesses ranged from "somebody's garden" through "the unpopular local cinema to the point it eventually forced their renovation". Regardless, we never had a clue except it was always outside and it was always far, far out of eyeshot. Aside from that time in the wetroom. We never talked about that. We just feared it.It's not that the cat didn't have a litter tray all these years. It sat there but he never used it. He never gave it a second glance save three occassions when he clearly used it to send a message. These were not regular occurences. These were anger. They involved eye contact. He wouldn't go out when it was raining, to the point of near bursting, but he would never use it. Those times were messages and we knew to be afraid.Time, however, is not kind to a cat known by several vets as "a Big Boy" and then as "He needs to go back in the box now, he's had enough". Younger cats entered his territory, entered his personal space and, eventually, their teeth entered his ears and a bit of his neck. Faced with vets bills that would make them seriously consider putting down the 6 Million Dollar Man it was time to forcibly retire the old idiot before he made his Rocky 5 and disgraced himself. This necessitated he learn, at long last, The Box.To say this was stressful is something of an understatement. I assume it was for him. For me the constant meowing was enough that I eventually took to calling a pillow Mr Punchfacediediedie. The battle of wills between a human being and an animal using a box for its own unpleasant needs is not traditionally compared to the Old Man & The Sea but I think that Old Man had absolutely nothing to whine about. He was on a boat. That's relaxing. I was in a flat with a cat yelling at me and getting out of a box every time I placed him in it.I tried many different litters over the years. I tried the cheapest... because I'm sensible. That didn't work. I tried those wooden pellets... because those seemed like they'd appeal to his naturalist instincts. Nope. Also those are horrifying. Whatever individual considered those an acceptable product has a weird fondness for a childhood spent shovelling through the most terrible things in garden borders.Eventually I tried larger crystal silica litters and the first signs of success began. I could tell from the deafening noises and later by the agonising stabbing sensation underfoot from that which he considered unworthy. As I fell to the ground in agony at four in the morning I decided to perhaps try something else.I will admit I got a box someone else had previously had a look at and sent back which saved me a few quid. I tend to work on the theory it's best to minimise my risk when it comes to the fickle whims of a cat who could open a small museum dedicated to my failed attempts to please him. I must admit to finding it a little on the steep side but there is definitely something to be said for the quality you get as a result.The box contains one big plastic sack full of pellets the size of couscous and are possessed with an urge to escape that you must fight every inch of the way. There's a bit of string that can hold the bag shut but I would suggest immediately replacing that with one of those plastic clips or else you may well find your box acting as a large scale dehumidifier at best.Due to the very fine nature of the pellets it does take a fair bit to fill up the box. This does mean, however, that they're incredibly efficient and also a great deal quiter than the large crystals. Its certainly not silent, but its more of a crunching in snow rather than a crunching in a skip full of broken glass and rocks. Don't expect any clumping powers, instead all liquids are absorbed with the build up gradually becoming concentrated at the bottom of the tray beneath the lighter-saturated layers above. This does trap the ammonia smell incredibly effectively but you will certainly get a jolt when it gets stirred up.The size of your tray and the workings of your cat will dictate how fast your cat befouls the contents of this box. Mine is on course to get through it in about half the time it claims but he has a very large box because he's incredibly inaccurate due to a mixture of size, spite and just a complete disinterest in what I have to go through in life. Your mileage may vary. If you have a smaller box you may well get a better rate.More solid examples of cat deposit are swiftly dehydrated incredibly effectively. This stuff is by far the most effective I've seen at choking off the disgusting horror bombs that escape from the bay of the feline destroyer of worlds. A mere two minutes of utter sickness and choking and you cannot tell anything was ever there. The fossilised memory of the past may then be excavated and disposed of via non-toilet-based methods, taking with it almost no litter beyond a thin coating perhaps one-crystal deep. You will then rush to the sink and scrub your hands, sobbing, rocking, remembering what it was to be able to look at your hands and see them as clean and not forever tainted.This stuff is genuinely the best litter that I have used. There is almost no maintenance beyond occasional mining expeditions until the day you just decide it's probably time to make it go away. Clean up then is pretty painless provided you have a respirator and a small shovel and the litter rarely sticks to the box. It may be up there in price but you're paying for a lot of civility and certainly for an absence of the usual big puff of silicosis compared to most bags of dusty silica litter.I would still be happier if he went back to using the cinema though.

I were a bit hesitant the first time I bought this cat litter as it appears to be very very expensive...alas, after some fighting within I took the plunge and bought some.Well, what can I say! Yes you may pay more upfront for the litter than the cheaper ones....but it out does the lot by far and works out much cheaper in the long run.Comparing it to other silica, which i found all of them to turn a nasty dark clumped orange when wee'd on...concentrated in one area....this Nullodor does not do that until the same day that it would need changing anyway...which for me is about 16 days later and that's 2 trays and 4 cats using it....indoor only cats they are as well due to where I live (in a 2nd floor flat) Using other (branded) small bags of litter (silica) - I have to change the litter every 2 days...HUGE difference....plus with other silica litter, after a few hour of use it looks used and dirty...where as the Nullodor looks fresh as a daisy day in, day out....until the day it needs changing and then it turns a yellow colour...which gets darker later that same day...thats when I change it.No smell what so ever from the cat trays either using this silica...from day 1 to day 16 when I changed it as it turned pale yellow in the morning (day 16) getting darker by nightfall...when I changed it and put fresh in. Where other silica, as I found....would start too become a bit smeely that same evening (day 1) with an obvious not nice smell come day 2...when it was dark yellow and required changing.I also find using more litter in the tray than I normally would of the cheaper stuff...makes it last even longer...3 x as long as per amount usedThe very fine silica crystals sound like walking of snow instead of breaking ceramic when the cats use the trays....and the cats only tread the tiniest bit of this Nullodor silica cat litter through the house after using the litter tray....and with the silica being very small and quite fine, if like me you walk around bare foot it does not feel like a sharp stone underfoot...as does other silica I have used.This Nullodor cat litter comes in one medium sized box...and within the box is a clear see through bag (just one) containing the litter. No nonsense, no fuss, no selling advertisements in sight! Which was a pleasant change.One word of warning...my cats have never done this with other cat litter...but for some reason, at least 1 of my 4 cats decided to mark his territory and wee'd on the bag containing fresh litter....it was about 10 feet away from where their trays are...not sure if this means much, if anything! Just thought I would mention it. So now I leave the big bag of cat litter - tied shut using the no nonsense tie supplied - and placed back into the box with closed tabs - so far so good....hhhmmm!!Anyway, I'm a skint flint but would still recommend this litter!! Seriously!!

I like this product, when you use null odor you never have to pick up clumped pee. Pee is abrorbed into the crystals, and there is no smell (except ehen the litter needs to change, for me it lasts around 3 weeks) you just have to scoop out the poo. I put that stright down the loo as my cats do not cover the poo with crystals they just lave it laying on top (dont ask). Overall, it may be the best cat litter on the market. Its certainly the most hygenic and great for those that hate the odor of pee and poop. But you can get this allot cheaper at pet shops. I have bought this item twice on Amazon as I was unable to get to a pet shop. I buy just about everything online. But for this product I will go to my local pet shop to get this item for the right (more acceptable) price whenever possible.

Thought it was sand litter like the nullodour coloured litter, but its not!Granules are between a fine litter and a nirmal silica litter!Comes in a 9kg bag, so have a scoop!Cost is expensive, will see how long it lasts for with four cats etc... Before i put it on subscription!

I have been using this litter for a couple of years and find that, if it is sifted every day, it lasts about 2 weeks with my two boys. It is not cheap, but there is very little tracking and no smell. My only regret is that it now only seems possible to get it in a box, unless I want it coloured. The box is not as convenient as the smaller packages. I am reluctant to pay extra to have bags of coloured litter because, to be honest, my cats are quite happy with plain white!

J'ai 4 chats et donc le rapport qualité/prix de cette litière est très intéressant. J'ai 2 bacs à litière et ça me permet de ne changer qu'une fois par semaine. Par contre je ne mets que 4 étoiles à cause du conditionnement. Je pensais comme indiqué dans certains commentaires qu'il y avait 6 sacs de 1,5 l dans le carton et non un grand sac de 9 Kgs avec la litière en vrac très pénible à manipuler et à doser surtout quand on a des problèmes d'arthrose.

J'utilise depuis très longtemps Nullodor. Avant même qu'on puisse le trouver sur Amazon.Je l'ai choisi au début pour son côté "faible odeur". Quand on vit dans un studio, c'est un critère fondamental. Et à l'époque, indéniablement, cette litière était bien au dessus des autres.Depuis, je suis passée au T3 puis au T4, et même si la faible odeur est toujours un critère primordial, ce qui me la fait prendre est le fait qu'on peut la vider dans les toilettes.3 chats à la maison, ça en fait des litières! Je ne sais pas si vous avez une passion pour descendre les poubelles, mais moi je déteste, encore plus si ça sent mauvais ou que je risque de craquer le sac et de devoir nettoyer de la litière sous le nez des voisins. Oui c'est du vécu :)Alors, je ne vais pas vous mentir, j'en ai essayé d'autres quand j'avais oublié de commander, qui ne m'ont pas convaincues. J'ai même essayé le catgenie, la litière sanibroyeur pour chat. Après de nombreux déboire, surtout avec le catgenie, je suis revenue à la Nullodor.Elle est plus chère que d'autre, pas non plus la pire, mais elle rend un bien meilleur service.Son défaut? les grains sont petits et se répandent partout, un bon tapis devant et le problème est quasiment réglé.

The media could not be loaded.  Suite à un déménagement mes deux chats ont dû faire un passage obligatoire en intérieur le temps de s'habituer à leur nouveau milieu. Ils n'avaient pas de litière avant cela et faisaient leur besoin dehors.J'ai utilisé Nullodor.J'ai enlevé les crottes avec une pelle adaptée une à deux fois par jour. La litière était également proche d'une fenêtre dont j'ouvrais le battant intérieur pendant la journée. J'ai changé la litière une fois par semaine.Les deux chats utilisaient la même caisse.Le paquet de 9kg permet de faire entre 3 et 4 litières. Donc de tenir environ un mois.Résultat, je n'ai pas eu d'odeur et les chats ont apprécié. La preuve, maintenant qu'ils sont autorisés à sortir, ils rentrent quand même pour faire leur besoin dans leur caisse :-)Une caisse en partie fermée est nécessaire. Les chats aiment bien gratter et du coup ils ont tendance à faire sortir des gains de silice. J'ai passé l'aspirateur sans fil une à deux fois par jour autour de la caisse. Mais cela me semble inévitable quelle que soit la litière utilisée.En conclusion, pas de mauvaise odeur, une utilisation pratique. Mes chats ont apprécié et moi aussi.

NULLODOR Litière en Silice pour Chat Carton de 9 kg, en vrac dans un sachet plastique.6 x 1,5kg auraient été plus simple à manipuler. 1,5kg = un mois d'utilisation, selon les chats. Moins de 1 mois si gros chat qui reste à l'intérieur. Mon chat est autant dehors que dedans, et sa litière dure 6 semaines environ.

Elle est poussièreuse.Les grains sont trop fins comparé aux sachets.Elle fait de la poussière et est volatile.Privilégiez les sacs plutôt que ce carton.
