For best results, do not mix with non-clumping cat litter. For first time use, start with an empty, clean cat litter box. Fill your clean litter box with 3 to 4 inches of Fresh Step Simply Unscented Cat Litter. Remove clumps and solids daily and dispose in trash. Do not flush. The rest of the litter stays fresh. Add more litter to refresh your litter box each time you scoop. Maintain level of litter at 3 to 4 inches.
As a reminder, especially to pregnant women and immunosuppressed persons, cat feces can sometimes transmit a disease called toxoplasmosis. Therefore, always remember to wash hands thoroughly after handling used cat litter. For further information, consult your doctor. Unused cat litter poses no toxoplasmosis threat. Caution: Do not use this product as a traction aid because product becomes slippery and slick when wet.

No longer any good
Have used this litter for years and it was the best. Within this past year, something has changed other than the color being darker. The granules are finer, it leaves dust EVERYWHERE and it has a light scent.

Thanks for sharing your review. We're sorry to hear you were disappointed with our Simply Unscented Litter. Many of the ingredients that go into the litter are from the earth and have naturally occurring color variations. Though appearance may vary (such as color and particle size), it shouldn't impact the performance of the litter. In the meantime, we want to help. Please reach out to us at 800-325-9259 and mention #251126-000431. We look forward to assisting you.
Why did you ruin a great litter?!
This used to be great litter; almost no dust and UNSCENTED, which is important for my cat with asthma. However, something changed mid-2025. It is now horribly dust (clouds of dust when you pour it out) and an overwhelming perfume smell. Why did you change it?! Also, it now forms a thick sludge and doesn’t clump well. I started noticing my wire scoop gets wet litter caked on it when I scoop. It never used to do this. Please bring back the old formulation!!

Not unscented. Clearly has smell of scents.
Why is it being sold under " Unscented" ?

What happened to this litter?
We’ve been using this for years, but whatever has changed in the formula recently has made it terrible. No clumping, no odor control and it leaves sludge in the box. I have one bag left and will be finding another litter.

Literately the best litter I've ever used & I've had cats throughout my whole life. Love the packaging too. The litter has little dust, no perfumey smell, does stay fresh for a while, & my cats love it. The packaging is awesome because it's easier to deal with small packages than it is a big bulky box. My mom has arthritis & these have been wonderful because she can actually pick the package up without a problem.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Formula changed - not for the better
Agree with other users...the formula has definitely changed. Odor control has declined significantly and is not providing adequate control anymore. Does yield a sludge result vs clumping and is more dusty.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Terrible product that I will avoid in the future.
I am extremely disappointed with this product! It is definitely NOT unscented, the chemical lemony stench is so powerful it lingers on my clothes for hours after cleaning a litter box! It is very dusty, it does not clump, it makes my cats sneeze, and makes me feel ill to use and deal with it!

Simply Unscented is no longer Unscented.
I recently purchased a new 6-pack of the Simply Unscented litter and was so disappointed in the changes that have been made. Simply Unscented is no longer unscented, and this is a deal breaker for our household as my husband is highly allergic. The chemical smell is overwhelming, the litter grains are smaller and don’t clump like it used to, and it’s dusty and makes us sneeze. I’m so unhappy about this! I’m going to have to suffer through the remaining bags while I look for another option. I hope you go back to the old formula - and quickly!!!

Has this product Fresh Step Simply Unscented 42 lb been discontinued? I can't find this product in this size anywhere. Neither in store or online.
- I contacted Fresh Step and was told it is still available but like you I have been unable to find it anywhere in stores or in line.
Helpful?
Does anyone know if this product works with the litter robot? I need more litter for the litter robot. I need to know if it will shift through. My cat seems to like the litter bot and spends his time on the second floor. Please and thank you.
- Yes, it does! We have the Litter Robot 3 and this is all we use. I set the timer for 7 minutes to allow it to clump harder when it cycles. I have three cats and I have no odors at all with this litter and it doesn’t crumble when it cycles.
Helpful?
Did simply ultra simply unscented replace ultra unscented ?
- Yes, as far as I can tell. It works the same for me.
Helpful?
Did the ultra unscented get discontinued? Is it only simply unscented now? The keep sending me this instead of what I ordered. It doesn’t work as well.
- Thank you for asking a great question, Bogi. We have decided the change the name of our Ultra Unscented litter to Simply Unscented. The formulas are essentially the same, and we know your kitty will still love it. While we hope this was helpful, please give us a buzz at 800-325-9259 if you need additional assistance. Make sure to mention reference number 201201-000872. Meow for now. London from The Fresh Step Team

Ultra or simply? The item title says Ultra Unscented. The photo and description say Simply Unscented. Which is it?
- I have this on auto delivery and I've always received ultra unscented. (I order the 42 lb one)
Helpful?
Is this a fine or course litter? My cats prefer litter that has a sandy texture. Thanks!
- I'd say medium sandy....not fine and not coarse
Helpful?
May I use a coupon if I order online?
- I think I had to call to use coupon-but it was no problem once I got customer service--
Helpful?
How often do you have to empty and clean a litter box using this litter? I am currently using a natural grass litter which doesn't break down, so I rarely have to completely clean the box.
- I scoop twice daily and add litter every week it so, as needed. I have 2 boxes for 2 cats. I only do a complete replacement and box scrubbing 2 or 3 times a year. There is no box odor (even with one stinky cat). My friend said my house smells "neutral," which is good enough with two cats!
Helpful?
How does this litter compare to the "simply unscented" Fresh Step litter when it comes to low tracking? I know it says low dust, but I hope it's as low tracking as the other Fresh Step. Thank you
- It tracks a little bit less than others and the dust is lower, but there is still both.
Helpful?
How is this packaged? Is there a pour spout or does the package just ‘open up’? Curious as to handle such a large container with out losing product everywhere. thanks!
- There are 4 - 10lb bags in the package. I love the way it is packaged. Normally I am scooping litter from a giant bag into plastic pails I've saved. I have 3 litter boxes, 1 on each floor & a changing/cleaning station on each floor. With this I don't have to distribute litter or carry any heavy plastic pails up & down stairs. It's a snap! So easy & no dust cloud to choke me or make my fur babies sick. I wish it were more widely available in Canada. It's fabulous litter & viable competition for the company that has the market currently on 98% of pet foods & cat litter ( but is also buying up Canada's natural water supply). PLEASE, CANADA IS A BUSTLING MARKET. WE NEED MORE CHOICES.
