Dusty beyond belief. A perfume, "Within our new formula," to take your breath away. I invite the developers to scratch in the perfumed dust and then lick their hands and then tell me it's just fine!
I first poured the litter into the box and the dust billowed around me and into my nose and mouth. The perfume was so strong that it stayed in my nose and mouth for hours. I immediately removed the "New Formula" and bought another brand.
I had used the old formula for years and then when they changed it....it became, in my mind dangerous for my animals and they should not need to lick that crap and smell from their feet. But it is just fine in their mind.
Tidy Cat had me send them a sample and they said finally told me that it's okay. I say it's not. So think about your cats cleaning themselves after using Tidy Cat and then think again.
Purina offered to send me a coupon for a free pail...I asked them why I'd want to get more of the stuff when what I just bought was bad. So if you buy it...make sure you purchase dust cloths and also maybe you want to buy face masks for you and your cats...and perhaps install a cat foot shower to stop them from needing to lick the smelly perfume from their feet.
I used Tidy cat for years with no trouble. I didn't notice the change other than the smell and then noticed cats were peeing and pooping next to the pan, NOT IN IT! Was disgusting.
I since changed to another product, cant stand house smelling like cat urine. I don't know what was going thru purina people's heads to replace it rather than to add it to their product line. My cats won't use it and for the price I can can buy sand!

Thanks for letting us know about the new scent and dust issue.
I haven't purchased this recently but I'll need to do a new update on this one to see how it fares.
