Overview
['This litter is made from a blend of corn starch, pea husk, and soybean fiber rather than mineral clay, positioning it as a natural, plant-based alternative for owners moving away from bentonite. Gardner Pet markets it around fast absorption and strong clumping, key performance points for anyone switching formulas and wondering how it compares to clay.', "The Green Tea scent version adds a mild fragrance on top of the base odor control, and the granule form is designed for easy scooping in multi-cat homes. It's backed by a 2 year manufacturer warranty, longer than many litter brands offer.", "At $16.14 for a 6 lb bag, it's priced reasonably for a specialty tofu litter, and with 391 reviews averaging 4.0 stars plus about 200 units bought in the past month, it has a meaningful and fairly steady track record."]
