"Cats LOVE it!" 2010-09-19
By Kimberly Baty (Kirby, Tx United States)
I have 3 very lethargic overweight cats, and this toy squirrel has them up and running and acting like kittens again. The velcro pouch holds a decent amount of catnip to keep them coming back over and over.

"A kitten again." 2010-08-31
By Djnork
I don't know why but both our cats love this toy. One is a kitten and loves every toy, but the other is her mother and she is twice as playful since we bought this. Every morning she brings it in to our home office, drops it at our feet and meows to play. They love to grab it and kick at it with their hind legs, and sometimes even lick it until it's almost soaked. The loose leaf catnip works great. Like another reviewer pointed out, you can rub it to release the smell again and avoid reloading it. There's nothing special about this toy. It's simply a little stuffed animal with a fuzzy tail and some velcro on its stomach. But if your cats enjoy it half as much as ours then it's money well spent.

"My cat loves it!" 2010-08-23
By Rachel
Usually my cats play with toys for one day and then forget about them. But this toy was different, I've had it for about a year now and my one cat still plays with it every day! She carries it all over the house and leaves it in funny places, like the dog bowl, my dirty clothes pile, etc. I haven't even put catnip in it for months, and she still loves it! The best buy on any toy I've ever bought for them!

"Who woulda' thunk?" 2010-08-18
By J. Bergman (Baltimore, MD)
I only bought this because I saw it on slickdeals and it was $3 at the time. I really didn't even know what it was, but I figured it would be something for the cats to play with. When it arrived I wasn't that impressed by it, but I turned it over to the kitties and let them go at it. Orwell could care less about it, but it quickly became Angus' favorite toy. He loves this thing and plays with it everyday. Loves to toss it in the air and bat it around! Good mouser practice!

"Whiska's Purrfectly Fish and Purrfectly Chicken Improved My Cats' Health" 2010-09-26
By Diane Gregg (Durham, NC, USA)
I used to never feed my cats wet food because they preferred dry and I thought it was fine as long as they drank plenty of water. After losing one cat to death mysteriously and another one to kidney disease I decided to follow the advice of many on the web and switch to wet food. I tried many brands including the most expensive, but my three cats prefer Whiskas Purrfectly Fish and Purrfectly Chicken to all others. I mix them together in the bowl. All three of my cats run to the bowls to gobble up the food and they don't leave a morsel. Also, my cats do not throw up this food like they do dry food. I can't believe the change in their health. In just a short time my two older boys went from being round fatties to having shape and nice healthy curves. And their coats are absolutely gorgeous. The oils in the food obviously create a nice sheen. Also, the shedding is way down. Thanks Whiskas and keep it comin'.

"Great service" 2010-07-31
By Anita C. Kuchera (Sheridan, WY USA)
This is the only wet cat food that one of our cats will eat and we have been having problems always finding it in our local Wal-Mart. So I was really pleased when I found that I could order it online and was also able to set up a schedule for monthly delivery. I was even more pleased when I found that I could adjust the schedule when I needed to order it sooner than expected. This is a great service for us and we have since set up another schedule for two of their other chicken products.

"Finniky Kitty!" 2010-05-28
By J Gilstrap
I have to say that I have tried all kinds of expensive catfood for my grown cat. He does not like the good stuff! He prefers the cheap stuff so I have just adjusted to that. I thought this tuna entree would be great, but he does not like it. Sorry for the bad review since I am sure there are cats out there with all different pallates of taste. If your kitty likes tuna which looks like it came from a can - bon appetit!

"Finally a food my finicky feline will finish!" 2010-04-02
By M. Walters
My cat is 15 years old, and has NEVER liked a kitty treat in her life - the only non-dry cat food she would ever eat was REAL tuna fish juice, drained from the can (and never mind the tuna). She has also had what I affectionately call a "tender tummy", meaning that every few weeks, since she was a kitten, she has had vomiting episodes that last a day or so and then disappear again. No explanation. Basically, I've just had to find cat food for her that matches the carpet on the way back up. Ew.

About a year ago, she stopped eating all together, and I was worried that she and I had reached the end of her long life. In actuality, she had just decided she no longer liked the IAMS senior she had eaten for 10 years, was going on a hunger strike that put her in the ER Vet with failing kidneys due to dehydration.

Enter Wiskas Purrfectly Fish Tuna (in the pack of ten, with the sardines and Whitefish/tuna mix). She instantly started eating again, and her health returned in a matter of days. AND, no more random vomiting!! She even deigns to eat dry cat food once a day to supplement the moist stuff - I'm using IAMS young adult (orange bag), and have had no problems there either.

She has her preferences with the Wiskas, don't be deceived. She will ONLY eat the purrfectly fish, NOT any other flavor, and really doesn't prefer the sardines (neither do I). The tuna entree with the whitefish is often only halfway eaten, but the tuna entree alone is always finished, which is why I was so happy to see it for sale here by itself.

One complaint, though. My kitchen now smells like dead fish. But, to save my carpets, her health, and my sanity, I'll sacrifice a little smell.

"Not Cheap, but Worth It!" 2009-11-13
By Benjamin J Burgraff (Las Vegas)
While I'll acknowledge that shipping catfood can be a pricey proposition, with three cats, and an upper-floor apartment, the convenience of home delivery makes it a desirable option...and Amazon's excellent reputation for on-time deliveries makes it a far more reliable choice than the other 'autoship' providers I've used.

Whiskas Purrfectly Fish Tuna Entree has been a favorite of my babies for over two years (surprisingly, it's the only 'seafood' item they like), and when you find something they love, you stick with it! While all the grocery chains in my area only offer it in a multi-flavor box (forcing me to pay for food the cats WON'T touch), through Amazon (and other carriers), the Tuna Entree pouches can be ordered individually for shipment, which is another reason I accept the increased price, without complaint.

So consider what your options are, and if the 'pros' outweigh the 'cons', I recommend Amazon as your choice!

"Boodat catbox" 2010-10-12
By lucyqgirl
The Booda is wonderful to use with curious dogs. I love the hood to keep the dogs away.

"Urine runs out the lip of the lid" 2010-10-01
By feline friend
Bought 2 boodas - have 4 cats which are very clean so usage is not the problem. The lip (for lack of better term) of the lid is too low so unless your cats hug the litter, the pee will run out of the lip. The entire rim needs to be wiped off daily and often the floor and edges of bottom box. Yuck. Bottom needs to be MUCH deeper.

"it does what suppose to do best" 2010-09-28
By D. Fredericks (brooklyn,ny usa)
this litter box is good for my two cats.thy love it it took them like 2 hour to get used to it and get there after many sniffs.it really cut down on the smell and my dog cant stick his nose and well do what dogs do with a litter:)

"Litter box dissapointment" 2010-09-26
By Robin Heier (Brooklyn, NY)
I loved this box at first, but, there urine keeps going over on to the stairs
and I have a big clean up. I've gone though a huge amount of paper towels cleaning
up the urine on the steps. Finally got another box.

"Love the product, but disapointed with this exact one sent to me." 2010-09-22
By Drea
The Booda dome, in general is a great product. We have two in use in our home and our family has them for their cats. The one I recieved from Amazon had to be returned as the lid did not fit the base properly. Better product inspection would have caught this easily.

"Love my Cat genie, but" 2010-06-29
By Michelle S. Austin (Cayce, SC)
I love my cat genie, and these cartridges work great. However, I really wish it would have specified whether this was the scented or unscented cartridge.

"NOT for the Cat Genie 120!" 2010-05-14
By D. Masters (Warrenville, IL USA)
The description mentions the 120 a couple times but this will not work with the Cat Genie 120. Also, it's classified "hazardous material" so you can not return it to Amazon.

"Great for older people!" 2009-07-09
By Elaine S. Kurter (Ocean City,, NJ United States)
My husband and I are now retired and not in the best of health anymore. BUT, we still love cats! This automated system has eliminated time on our knees, extra trips to the exterior garbage can and many, many times of bending over. Our breathing problems from the dust of regular litter have gone away. We think this would be a great gift for senior either to his or her self or for our children to gift. We just love it!!!!!

"Free from litter!" 2009-04-24
By CAT LOVER (RINEYVILLE,KY USA)
First, Amazon's customer service is tops!! I just wanted to tell those that are considering buying the CatGenie, that if you have asthma or strong perfume odors bother you..... LIKE ME! Then you need to order the unscented SaniSolution SmartCartridge. We have and that took care of the only problem we have had with the cat genie! We bought it in March and hooked it up in the laundry room & it works great. If you hook it up in the laundry room then you don't have to bother with flushing the toliet after you run it. I would recommend the CatGenie to amyone! It is so much more sanitary than the litterbox or the other automatic type & I have had both with multiple cats using them. The CatGenie beats them hands down!

"Not too bad!" 2010-07-13
By MrsDodaro (Augusta, GA)
Overall, this is a nice investment. The feeder is rather large, so make sure you'll have adequate space to put it. I do wish I had paid better attention to how large this actually is, b/c we only have one cat & this hold a LOT of cat food... Also I sometime have trouble getting the top lid of container to close tightly...

Other than that, I like it; it is great to know our cat will not run out of food when we take a vacation. Also, I like how the bits of cat food flows out very smoothly & has not gotten clogged...

"Great so Far" 2009-10-06
By J. L. Stern (San Diego, CA)
This just came, I was a bit surprised by how big this was, but its a great size, this will help with my 2 kittens, who eat and eat and eat, and now I'll rarely have to refill their bowl.

"Works great for 4" 2008-12-13
By Lianna Vento
I needed something to self feed in our backyard as we suddenly are feeding 4 stray cats.Easy to fill; great value. Definitely would recommend it

"Works perfectly" 2007-12-29
By SuZQ (Northern California)
I fill the feeder with cat food and it has worked great. The openings are large enough that there is no clogging or bottle necking. Now I don't have to worry about the food running out if I am away. It couldn't be more convenient.

"great item" 2010-05-03
By Cynthia Patton
This is a wonderful product. We got one for our 21 year old cat to be warm in her crate while we traveled and have since bought several more for our other 4 who do not travel with us. It does not stay hot all the time, just when they are laying on it, which helps save energy. It is not a thick padded blanket so you need something supportive underneath. The thickness makes it excellent for transport however. The adapter that works in cars is great. We have been on 4, 2 day long trips in colder weather and it has worked very well and our at home cats all sleep on them when it is below 70i n the house. Very pleased.

"great for travel" 2010-03-13
By
I think this is a great product. We bought it because of the adapter so that we could have a warm place in the back of the station wagon for our 21 year old cat in her kennel while we travel and it works great for that. It also is good indoors on top of something soft (as it is not very thick which also makes it great for travel). We have no complaints with the heat level. When a cat is on it it gets very warm but it does not always stay "on" when one is not which saves energy. As someone else noted, one of our cats (we have 5) tends to groom it but when we sprayed it with Feliway she stopped. I am going to order an extra one to have on hand.

"Please don't fold it over" 2010-02-11
By Leslie Mccrea (Ohio)
The picture shows this being folded over to cover your cat, but the instructions say do not fold. It is also very thin, so I needed to put something under it to cushion it. My cats do find it warm though, so I gave it three stars.

"Don't waste your money" 2009-12-12
By UB (Payson, Ut)
It is hard to feel any heat at all. No heat adjustment as advertised. I suggest you buy a regular heating pad for your pet.

"Wonderful, warm cat blanket" 2009-12-10
By Andrei (Jersey)
I was looking for something to help "encourage" my cats to sleep on an old chair and stay off my new couch.
This heated throw worked like a charm.
Now the 3 cats cuddle togther on this throw and leave my leather couch alone :-)
Now, my cats are on the small side, the largest is just 10 lbs, which is why they can fit together on the throw. With larger cats I'd say only 1 or 2 could fit comfortably.

We've only had it for about 2 months so I will review it again later to let you know how i's held up.

This laser toy is great for pets as it is bright so they can see it clearly and has several fun shapes to display.

"cat laser toy" 2010-09-19
By meandersons
I ordered two of these in my last order, because they are cheap, they are a favorite toy of my cats, and they are small and easy to temporarily misplace. Replacement batteries are also very affordable. You can get a pack of 50 for about $8. I've never experienced any problem with the toy itself breaking---only the need to replace batteries. My cats are aware that I am the one who generates the image by picking up the toy, and when they hear the rattle of the key chain that is attached to the toy, they both come out of nowhere and wait for the image to appear. They love the star, the fish and the butterfly, and they pretty much ignore the smiley face and the dot. After reading some of the negative reviews about laser toys causing emotional problems for pets, I did some research, because no matter how much they love chasing these, I would not let them play with something that could harm them. Everything I read on cat and vet websites related to cats and lasers was pretty consistent in stating that the lasers were a great way to provide fun for the kitties and exercise their stalking and pouncing instincts, but that each laser toy play session should be ended with a toy that the cat can actually capture, so that they do not become frustrated. This is an easy thing to do, and I have already changed our laser play sessions to end with one of their feather toys they can capture and carry away. I don't have a dog, so I didn't search specifically for information on laser toy effects on dogs, but there is a lot of information related to the subject. As far as my cats are concerned, they love this toy and we will continue to play with it and end each session with something they can capture!

"I LOVED it...and then..." 2010-08-25
By E. Mills
I bought this as a last attempt hope to get my cat to play with something. She is 12 years old and hates all toys. Well, she LOVED it!! She chased that little red dot all across our house! She didn't care about any of the other shapes, just the normal lazer.

Now, the problem. I bought this on July 8th. I had to buy a 2nd set of batteries before August. I just bought another set 3 days ago, and guess what, they're already dead. I did not use this combined for more than an hour. I will not continue to purchase batteries for this, instead I'll get a better laser.

"Great toy for dogs or cats!" 2010-08-22
By Carol A. Seaver
I can not say enough good about this little inexpensive toy. My dogs go crazy over the light. My son has a Sphinx and a Devon Rex cat. They will jump half way up the wall for this light. The different patterns do not make any difference. The light itself is what makes it so much fun. This would make a great souce for running off energy during rainny days or cold winter days when going outside is not possible. Thank you Amazon for selling this toy!

"really awesome tower... except for the stairs/ramps" 2010-10-16
By zimkid
I bought this tower on Amazon because it was MUCH cheaper than ordering it from any other site I found it on. It shipped very quickly, and it was packaged well-- no pieces missing or damaged in any way.

Assembly was not difficult, and I put this together by myself at EIGHT months pregnant, so I would say ANYONE could do it with ease! (If you are short, you will have to stand on a step-stool in order to reach the top sections.) The instructions are somewhat vague, as they have NO written explanation, only pictures. But I managed to put it together in less than one hour, so obviously they are clear enough.

My cat absolutely ADORES this tower. She uses it to scratch and sharpen her claws (in fact, she has not once used our couch for this since we set up the tower, and she used to tear up our couch daily!), she sleeps on every single section of it except the very bottom (floor), and she plays on it constantly. She jumps from platform to platform, as well as from the tower to a nearby windowsill and back, and the tower holds up great. I only attached two of the three toys included (I could not find anywhere to attach the third), but she plays with both toys on a regular basis, and entertains the whole family while doing so. I'm sure that if she could rate this product, she would definitely rate it 5 stars.

ONE COMPLAINT: The 'stairs' or 'ramp' pieces have brackets on them to attach them to the tower, and these brackets are the wrong angle. I tried a few different things in order to make them fit correctly, but there was absolutely no way. My boyfriend tried to rig up a couple different methods of attaching them, but he couldn't figure anything out either. I have seen this complaint on several other reviews of this tower (at least eight, I stopped looking after seeing that many), so if this is something that will bother you, keep it in mind before purchasing! So I decided to not bother with them at all. One is in the trash, the other sits on a bench in the house, and she sometimes sits on it or sharpens her claws on it. Even with this problem, I love the tower-- since my cat has never known the tower to have these pieces, she doesn't miss them.

If it wasn't for the problem with the stairs/ramps, I would give this product five stars for sure, but I had to give it four because of that problem (especially knowing other people have had the same issue).

Easy to assemble, easy on the eyes, soft material, and most important- my cat LOVES it!

"Nice cat tree" 2010-09-22

Suprisingly (thanfully) easy to assemble. Nice quality and the cats love it. Best one ive seen for the price.

"Cat's love this thing." 2010-09-21
By TNman76
Bought this cat tree because the old one we bought at a cat show was falling apart. The product came in 5 days, came in 1 box took me only about 30 minutes to put together so i don't understand how some people stated that it was hard to put together. Overall I am happy with this product and the cat's love it. We have 4 cat's cleo she is 12, whitepaw he is 6, pinky she is 7, Snowball he is 2.

"To Be Fair" 2010-09-14
By Mona Oliver (USA)
GoPetClub's cat tree (F2040-Blue) is not by ArmarKat -- still, ArmarKat is getting blamed for problems with their "copycat" tree because J. Hitesman attached his negative review to the wrong product. Sad to see it resulting in some folks passing this item by.

As for me, I own this very ArmarKat tower, having purchased it some months ago from ArmarKat directly. It cost me $175 with free shipping, and was delivered promptly. It was easy to put together. I parked it in front of our wide living-room window. The tree is big, but lovely; the quality, exceptional. It's proven to be quite sturdy and stable. We enjoy watching the cats congregate in it.

As for our six cats (adults, from 7 to 21 lbs), they use it extensively, for snoozing curled up, high in the perches, or for climbing and jumping, sitting and looking, scratching the posts, and playing. (The yarn balls do wear out so you'll soon need to get new and better toys.) For two of the cats, this tree has literally become their home inside our home, they're in it that much.

All the cats love it and highly recommend it. (I figure, hey, they should know. ;)

"The cats LOVE this!" 2010-09-05
By Cathy MW
We have 5 cats in our home, and they really enjoy this cat tree. It is very sturdy, which is great when they run at it and jump on full steam. All of the places for scratching are great, since I'm in the process of discouraging a couple of them to stop sharpening their claws on wood trim in doorways, and upholstered furniture.

I've had this cat tree for about 6 months, and the fabric is starting to get a bit threadbare in one or two corners, but this is to be expected with the scratchers that use it. I also have 4 dogs, and I was pleasantly suprised that just sweeping the bottom with a broom quickly and easily gets the pet hair off. All in all, it was a good purchase and worth the price.

"This is the cat's favorite." 2009-10-05
By J. L. Miller (Atlanta, GA USA)
I am pleased that we can get this by the pack at a good price. Retail stores in my area only have mixed packs - this doesn't help us as this Savory Salmon Feast is the only one my Mom's cat will eat! He approves of this purchase as well but he wishes that he could have more than a can-a-day.

"Not the favorite, but passable" 2009-08-03
By carolyn (Canal Winchester, OH)
Of all the gormet Fancy Feast varieties, this one seems to be the least favorite. Not sure why - they won't eat salmon fresh from the market either. Must not be on the regular cat's palate for some reason. The smell is quite nice though - smells like people food really. You can't really go wrong with these Fancy Feast varieties - they're the hit in this house!

"Kitty LOVES it" 2009-06-29
By *rose* (USA)
Our Kitty just loves this stuff. He goes wild for it; it must taste great!

For me, I like it because Kitty eats the whole thing and it doesn't smell strongly of cat food. I buy this again and again because he loves it so much.

He also loves the Fancy Feast Gourmet Cat Food 3-Flavor Variety Pack.

Princess loved this, and she'd get it as a treat -- then later on in her life when she was dying and was very fussy about eating, she would eat this, or at least some of it, and would refuse any other kinds of cat food.

I was able to mix Cee Cee's powdered cat antibiotics in Fancy Feast when she was recovering from a burst abscess, and she'd eat all the food, with the antibiotics.

But I always wondered about the color of this food -- it seemed pretty bright for the combinations of meats and fish that were in it -- is there alot of food color in this food???

"Cat loves the food, but all of my Fancy Feast subscriptions have been unreliable." 2009-03-18
By NYShopaholic
My cat loves Fancy Feast catfood. However, all five of the Fancy Feast subscriptions I signed up for have been unreliable. Im October, I signed up for delivery every two months and received shipments only in October and December (it's now March 18, but I canceled all of my subscriptions yesterday). What was supposed to be 48-can cases Amazon turned into 24-can cases, with one flavor being canceled entirely. I was notified by Amazon that shipments would be sent in mi-February, but they never arrived.

"Installs very easily" 2010-10-13
By Akpelo
I wasn't sure what to expect... but this cat door looks great. It was really easy to install and seems to fit multiple door sizes. I put mine on very thin screen door. It went together great!

"Made my life a lot easier!" 2010-10-02
By Mr Roberts (Iowa City, IA USA)
This cat door is fairly well made, not perfect but gets the job done, my complaint would be that it doesn't fit on normal inside doors that are over 1" thick. I installed it on the door going from my kitchen to the basement as I keep my cats food in the basement and this allows the cats to get to it and keeps the dog out. I had to go out to the hardware store and find screws of the exact length to make this fit my standard size inside door and there is also a gap between the two pieces where you can see the inside of the door. Other than that its nice with the lock on it I can lock it from either direction so if I want to keep the cats in the basement I can or if I dont want them to go in the basement I can lock it the other way or I can lock it so it wont go either way!

"smooth" 2010-05-13
By James (Pennsylvania USA)
Very easy to install...quick to ship...one of the cats is not going through it yet...not sure how to get her to use it...works great on my thin panel door...

"Great item" 2010-04-11
By Northern Gal (Michigan)
Impressed with the quality of this item especially for the reasonable price. Works perfectly and the brown color is great - it doesn't call attention to itself in the bedroom door where I installed it. The template and instructions were good. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that it's made to "self line" but only up to 1/2", which is way thinner than standard for residence interior. So if you have a hollow door, you have to improvise something to seal it off. I played around with flexible plastic but ended up just using duct tape, which has been working just fine for over four months now. If I need another cat door at some point, I would look for another one just like this.

"Awesome Cat Door!" 2010-02-14
By jaeleibund (Milwaukee, WI)
I'm very pleased with this cat door. I purchased it about 2 months ago and I haven't had a single problem with it yet. It was easy to install and very easy to get my 2 cats to go through. I like that it's a brown color, so it blends better on my door. On the description, it says that it's ideal for thin panel doors, but my door was a standard size door and I just found a paint color that matched with the frame and painted in between, on the exposed part of the door. You would never be able to tell. The best part is the price, I feel it's a good price for a good product!

"Excellent scratcher" 2010-10-12
By N'sphere (The Big Apple)
My mom's HUGE (22-pound) cat likes this almost as much as the Bergan Turbo Scratcher. It's fairly well made, though it does have to be tightened fairly often or its base (which is two separate pieces) shifts around. We put it in a corner, but even when it's in the middle of the room, he can't knock it over (and considering that he's the size of Cleveland, that's pretty amazing).

Note: When he first started to use it, there were strands and bits of the scratching surface littering the floor, that had to be vacuumed up--but after awhile, that seemed to go away....
I might still get the perch that goes on top of it, I think the cat might like it--that is, if he can drag his fat ass up there.... ;)

"SmartCat Ultimate Scratching Post - LOVE IT!" 2010-10-09
By Cocoa Puff (New York, NY)
I have a very large cat. The problem I have had with other scratching posts is that they would fall over when he used them. I have not had that problem with this product. My cat can get a full stretch on the post without the unit falling down, and he loves it!

In addition, it's easy to assemble and sturdy.

The current price of [...] is slightly less than what I paid for it @ [...]. I researched this item for 2 months. Even at the price I paid, no other retailer could beat this price b/c they charge at least $16.00 for shipping.

"Cat loves it and so do I" 2010-10-03
By Skaiya
I am a first-time cat owner, so I have not bought any other cat scratching posts to compare this scratching post with, but I am glad I made this purchase for several reasons.

First, and most obviously, I love this post because but my cat uses this it all of the time. I didn't have to train him to use it, since he likes to scratch things (my laundry basket is another favorite of his) but I do reinforce his scratching behavior at THIS post by feeding him treats when he sits on top of the post, and stuffing small dry treats into the two seams on each side of the post (which causes him to cling to the post as he tries to dig the treat out with his little teeth). Interestingly, I got him this post when he was 6 months old, before he was showing any significant scratching behavior, and he has yet to scratch up any of my furniture other than the laundry basket, which is ok by me.

Second, I love this scratching post because it keeps his claws CLEAN. He doesn't scratch me often or on purpose, but sometimes, we will get a little too excited chasing after the string/toy/ribbon and pounce on the hand pulling the string/toy/ribbon. Before I got the post, the scratch(es) would inflame and be itchy for days. Now that he has the post, his occasional scratches don't get gross.

Third, the post is very well made. It is pretty heavy, so my cat can't tip it over or push it around as he's scratching (he's about 9.5 pounds), even on our wooden floors. The plant fiber that it's made out of also appeals to my cat, and stands up to his constant use.

Overall, I recommend this scratching post to anyone who is looking for a sturdy, heavy duty, large-but-not-too-large scratching post (I can hear him using the scratching post right now).

"Smile with joy as your cats sink their claws into this :)" 2010-10-03
By John Steffes (Maine, USA)
Like many here I was hesitant about spending a considerable amount of money for a product I didn't know would last or even if my cats would like. Once the price dropped to $50.61 with, and this was very important, free shipping, I bought it (this thing is quite heavy).

I have two cats: Peanut is a bob-tailed calico (f) and Socks is a large butterscotch tabby (m). Socks took to this scratching post right off and never looked back. At over 15 lbs he is a relatively big cat and very strong. He like to sinks his front claws into the very top of the post then pull hard, stretching his back in the process. I mention this because I was concerned about whether this post would tip over (he tipped over a previous post I had but thankfully cleared out of its way before it fell over).

Peanut took a bit longer (about a week) to acclimate herself to it. At first she actually seemed rather disinterested but once she took to it she doesn't go to anything else, and boy does she like to claw at things. Like the picture you see in the advertisement, she grabs the post with her front paws then climbs with both front and rear, as if it were a tree. The funniest thing is that she'll climb up towards the top, tilt her head back and look sideways (with her eyes bulging and pupils dilated), then jump and run off. I never fail to laugh when she does it. Great entertainment!

It's been about three months since I purchased this scratching post and though my cats have mauled at it several times daily everyday since then, it hasn't shown much wear. For comparison, I previously had a door-type scratching post (w/catnip pouch). Socks used it but Peanut didn't. And even though Socks used it, it wasn't enough interesting to keep him from scratching elsewhere. Worst of all, by one month he had the thing in shreds.

I know this is a rather long, detailed review. While it's easy to write a critical review, this one took time. I wrote this because when I was searching for a scratching post these are the very concerns I had. As with any pet product/toy, there's no iron-clad guarantee that your pet will like it. But in all fairness give your cats some time (a week or two) to see if they like this post. If they do I think that both you and them will be very grateful for a sturdy and fun product.

"Impressed" 2010-10-02
By black fox
My cats love this post. The reviews were on spot. I would highly recommend this post. The quality is excellent, and best of all, the cats agree. They use it all the time instead of household items.

"Excellent quality!" 2010-10-11
By AZ Dee (Phoenix, AZ)
I've used Fresh Step Crystals since both of my 2 year old cats were kittens and I wasn't sure how well they would adjust to a new litter. However, I was on a mission to find something comparable due to the cost of Fresh Step. I tried another brand of silicone crystals a few months ago, but pouring a bag into their box caused such huge clouds of choking dust, I had to wonder how healthy it was to have that blasting me in the face every week.

I came across Just the Crystals a little over a month ago and have ordered this twice now. There is very little dust in the bags so that was a relief to me. Both cats took to it immediately without any hesitation, which was my biggest concern. The price seems equivalent to buying Fresh Step Crystals when I find it on sale but includes the added convenience of it being delivered straight to my home.

The service and quality of the packaging and litter really seems top notch and the only thing I could possibly request is that this be offered through Amazon's Subscribe & Save plan. I'm sure many would jump to sign up for this ongoing essential buy for their household!

"Just the Crystals kicks Fresh Steps Butt" 2010-10-05
By Jeff
For the ScoopFree Automatic Self-Cleaning Litter Box, this cat litter is waaaaay better than the pricey ScoopFree Crystal litter. Just the Crystals is intended for use with the re-usable tray, not a disposable.

The ScoopFree could not control odor for more than 2 days with my geriatric cat and it is supposedly good for at least 3 weeks with one cat! Just the Crystals delivers on ScoopFree's promise. Definitely use.

"Fantastic" 2010-09-28
By Virginia (Oreland, PA USA)
I just started using my automatic litter box again after moving. I bought 'Just the Crystals' to give them a try. They lasted for over a month and 94 'sweeps'. The stuff sold by that other company never made it past 2 weeks and about 40 sweeps. I am sold...The price has gone up since I bought them last, sadly.

"Great product with exceptional customer service!" 2010-09-27
By Great Cook (Seattle, WA, USA)
This is understandably the #1 best selling cat litter on Amazon. When it disappeared for a while I wrote to the seller and got a personal note back from Rick.. who wrote me again when the product was once again available on Amazon. It had simply sold out!

With an Amazon Prime account, 2nd day air delivery is Free, so I immediately ordered 3 more boxes! I also have the forever litter tray. I couldn't be more pleased with this company, their products, and particularly their friendly customer service. It's hard to find a company with such a strong desire to please. Thanks Rick!

"Works so far; 3 cats = 9 days" 2010-09-22
By M. Cummings (Oregon)
I thought I would give this a try since the permanent tray from forever litter trays worked so well. It has been 9 days and I need to swap out the crystals as my cats drink ALOT from the filtered fountain. I used to be able to go 4 weeks when I only had the 1 cat, but triple the output and well...you would need to change out the litter more frequently. I do remove the poop from the scoop free automatic litter box 2 times a day as the kittens food just reeks!!!! I can't wait till they are old enough to switch them to Kirkland signature maintenance food-way better nutritional and financial value. Overall I think this product does just as well as the scoop free crystals. The extra .4 lbs per bag actually help the cats have enough litter. 4.0lbs even with the scoop free wasn't enough. I do see some powder as the week went on, but it didn't bother us. I don't think I could have a better litter area. We use the litter champ,the scoop free litter box, the forever litter tray, and now just the crystals.
