I love our cats. Our male cat, Clyde, has been a part of our family for 13 years. We have had our female cat Pearl for 5 years. We are “cat people” through and through. They bring us comfort and companionship and are totally spoiled. Cats are pretty self-sufficient, and that’s why they are the perfect pet for our family. We’ve even learned how to cope with those 4 A.M. feedings that Clyde insists he needs. There’s only one downside to owning a cat, and that’s the constant battle with the litter box. We have two litter boxes that are scooped at least three times a day and thoroughly cleaned out and fresh litter added weekly. However, battling immediate litter box smells is a problem. If I am home, I scoop them out as soon as possible. Sometimes we may be away from the home a few hours, only to be greeted by those smells at the door. It’s frustrating to me because I am a neat freak and want my home to smell as clean as it looks.
Fresh Step Triple Action cat litter has plant based extracts added for even more odor elimination. It was hard to turn down an opportunity to conduct a sniff test with my cats to see if they could smell the difference, so I set out each container to see which smell our cats preferred. Each of these containers had a small sample of litter from three major brands (including Fresh Step) and some garlic extract added in the litter samples.
THE SNIFF TEST
Clyde is eager to help!
Clyde is pretty sure Container B smells the least like garlic.
Clyde chose Fresh Step!
Even smelling for myself, I could immediately notice the difference in the Fresh Step litter and the other leading brands. Naturally, I gave our cat litter boxes a good cleaning and filled them up with Fresh Step! I’ve been able to tell that the Fresh Step is definitely making a difference in how the litter box smells all throughout the day, whether it’s been scooped or not. I’m only sorry I didn’t try this brand sooner!
Fresh Step is revolutionizing cat litter by adding natural based plant extracts to its litter. The plant extracts in Fresh Step litter contain two main ingredients: chlorophyll and essential oils. Chlorophyll actively binds to odors and eliminates them from the air. Meanwhile, the essential oils act as a force field, blocking odors before they leave the litter box. Activated carbon and added plant extracts fight all three sources of odor: urine, feces and bacteria. The new and improved Fresh Step litter retails for $10.29 for a 20 lb. box and can be purchased at grocery, pet specialty, mass merchandise and drug stores nationwide.

We don’t have any cats, but I can definitely smell the odor of a litter box at other people’s homes if they use an inferior product. I should suggest this to some people!
