Bella’s Blog Bash: Worlds Best Cat Litter {review} + Giveaway

As a cat owner who’s been around cats all my life, I’ve tried every cat litter out there. From the cheapest to the most expensive and from the tradition litters to the clumping. Even other bio-degradable litters such as the recycled newspaper type (which stinks by the way). We’ve pretty much experienced them all.

Sure many are the same in price, granule size and claims such as clumping capabilities but I have to say that Worlds Best IS the best in providing a natural, chemical-free, bio-degradable litter. The funny part is that it is made from a food that you more than likely eat for dinner at least once per week. Corn! Can you believe it? Whole kernel corn.

Now, although I’ve never popped a few pieces of Worlds Best into my mouth and eaten it like the woman on the commercials, I do know that Worlds Best is extremely safe, safe enough to eat. I’m not sure how they do it but the result is a micro-porous, product that is able to control odors, absorb moisture faster, clump tighter, and last longer than other litters. Plus, it’s safe for the environment, and our pets. I wonder how many pets eat it. hehee

One thing I’ve never liked about other litters is the dust that is omitted when it’s poured into the litter pans. I have allergies so this is a huge turn off for me. I’m always inhaling that stuff no matter how hard I try to hold my breath and I get tired of the mess it makes on my floor and walls after pouring, not to mention my clothes. You certainly DON’T want to wear black while cleaning the litter box. Worlds Best Cat Litter does not make a dust when poured. I love that! And I know my cats appreciate the fact that they don’t have to inhale dust when they’re using their boxes.

Another great thing about this litter is that even though it clumps, I’m not finding matted fur between my cats toes or on their behinds like I do with clay litters. As you probably well know, when the clay litters get wet, they get sticky and then harden up. That’s why the excrements are scoopable.

Yes, that’s what makes them appealing comparing them to traditional litters but they have the negative side of matting in your cats fur. What makes matters worse is when kitty tries to lick the clay off. The more they lick, the more saliva there is that’s mixing with the clay and that doesn’t help at all. Who wants to have to bathe their cats because they were unable to remove it during one of their regular every 10 minute spit bathes? I know my cats are happy about not having to get a real bath. lol. Yes, this Mommy is the “best” now. haha

Worlds Best Cat Litter generously sent us two full size bags of their Multiple Cat formula, along with a litter mat and a t-shirt. My cats don’t mind the change in litter I think because this one is unscented and is more comfortable on their paws since it doesn’t stick. Did I mention it can be used with most self cleaning litter boxes too? That’s great for those of you who, like us, have more than one cat. We don’t have a self cleaning box, although I’ve thought about purchasing one. That just might be in the near future!

The Worlds Best Cat Litter comes in a Clumping Formula and Multiple Cat Clumping Formula for homes with two or more cats. Neither of these litters contain perfumes so there’s no strong scent. If you’re used to litters that provide scents such as Mountain Forest or Lavendar, you won’t find that in Worlds Best. They do not add perfumes or dyes. They’re 100% natural.

Keeping the litter box sifted daily helps cut down on strong odors. Of course leaving a soiled box for days will create a stench no matter what litter you use. That’s definitely not healthy for kitty and your cat will eventually not use a dirty box so guess what? They’ll find somewhere cleaner to potty. Cats are pretty meticulous in their grooming. Some are extremely picky about their “toilets” as well and won’t use them again if they aren’t sifted pretty frequently. Other cats may be a little more tolerant. I, for one, do not want to find little “surprises” under my bed, or behind my tv. Well, anywhere for that matter, other than where it’s supposed to be. Every ‘potty time’ should be done IN the litter box, not outside of it.

Because of the soft texture of Worlds Best Cat Litter your cats will love it more than their usual litter. Also, if you’re someone who declaws your cats, a procedure that I am not endorsing here, Worlds Best litter would be SO much better for your kitties healing paws than other types that contain toxins. Those chemically treated litters could irritate their sensitive skin.

If you haven’t tried Worlds Best and aren’t sure you or your cat(s) would love it, they offer a money back guarantee if you’re not completely satisfied. There’s really nothing to lose, right?.

Although the organizations currently participating are based in LA, the effort to raise litter for them is dependent on the support of the masses!  The theory is simple—the more clicks the more litter donated!

Now there are only 19 more days left to give!
