We found the best comparative reviews of cat litters (including Tidy Cats) at Gomestic.com and Suite 101.com, whose writer owns a "cattery" with 14 cats and seems to know what she's talking about. We supplemented these reviews with owner posts at the online pet retailer Petco.com.
Clumping, fine-grained cat litters like Tidy Cats Scoop are far and away the most popular type of litter in the U.S. Owners give the slight edge to this brand over the similar Scoop Away (*est. $16 for a 28-pound container), saying cats like its texture and its clumping makes it easy to clean. However, some pet owners are suspicious of the chemical additives that cause clay litters to clump, and others say cats tend to track fine-grained litters like Tidy Cats around the house. If you're willing to experiment with an organic, flushable, clumping, large-grained cat litter, you might want to consider World's Best Cat Litter (*est. $40 for 34-pound bag), though it's far more expensive.

A. King tries out five different brands of cat litter to see which is preferred by her own cat. She dislikes the dust created by Tidy Cats clay (not to mention the fact that cats tracked it all over the house) and is suspicious of the sodium bentonite used in Arm & Hammer clumping litter.
