   5.0 out of 5 stars Clean Floors!!! :) I love my cats, but I may just love this litter box more.I switched from clay litter several years ago, after discovering that the clay dust was irritating both to my newly adopted-cat and to my visiting mom. We tried several different types of litter before settling on the popular brand of pine pellet litter. It’s a pretty decent product in terms of odor control and practicality, but OH! The tracking!! Sawdust all over my floors; it was like living in a barn. When company came around, it was mortifying. If they stayed long enough, the inevitable little sawdust footprints would begin to appear all over my dark wood floors. Company: “what’s that??” Me: “um, it’s…cat litter…I don’t know what got into them…they have never done this before…wait, don’t leave…”I found the Breeze system during one of my exhaustive searches for the perfect litter; I’m sure my fellow cat-lovers can feel my pain. I liked the idea of the grates at the bottom for the urine to pass through and be absorbed by an odor-controlling pad. Even better was the promise that the pellets wouldn’t break down and track all over my house. I thought the price was a little steep, what with having to buy the wee-wee pads on a regular basis, but I was intrigued. And desperate.When I received my brand spanking new catbox, I proceeded to empty and wash out the old box and just pop the new box in its place without much fanfare. In my experience, felines are less likely to reject something new if you just act as if nothing is different. Just put it down and walk away. The instructions recommend leaving the old litter box out and just not maintaining it, so that the cats will prefer to use the clean Breeze box, but my bathroom is way too small. If I put two catboxes in the bathroom, I won’t be able to fit myself in there, so no. Instead, I mixed some of the pine pellets in with the Breeze pellets and I put a little bit of the old used litter in the bottom drawer, on top of the wee-wee pad, so it would smell familiar to them. Then I crossed my fingers.As the days passed, I couldn’t believe how clean my floors remained. As promised, the pellets remain in one piece, so there’s nothing to stick to their paws and track everywhere. Oh sure, I’ll find the occasional pellet or two on the floor by the catbox, but that’s nothing. It only takes a second to sweep it into the dustpan and toss it back in the box. It’s absolutely nothing compared to what I have been through. The pine pellets that I added to the Breeze pellets broke down as usual, but instead of sticking to their paws and ending up on my floors, the sawdust simply fell through the grates at the bottom and onto the wee-wee pad beneath. Genius! Another reviewer here said he uses this box with the pine pellets instead of the Breeze pellets, and I may give that a shot as well, since I have leftover pine stuff anyway. I’m just afraid that too many of the pine pellets will cause the dreaded tracking problem again. The way I have it now is about a 60/40 mix (give or take) of Breeze pellets to pine pellets. I only put half of the bag of Breeze pellets in the box to mix in with the pine.My cats DID have an adjustment period of about a week, complete with both of them giving me the stink eye for several days and one leaving a massive poop at the front door as a sign of her displeasure. I gave her my sternest “Nono, bad kitty” and “the look” of disapproval as I scooped the poop and placed it in the new litterbox for her to see where it belongs. I threw in a few additional stern mommy looks for good measure as I scrubbed and disinfected the scene of the crime. The guilt trip must have worked, because she deposited her next poop in the Breeze box like I told her to. So far so good.I’ll be brutally honest here – this stuff does nothing to control poop odor. You pretty much have to scoop out the poops as soon as you can. This may not be an issue if you’re lucky enough to have a remote spot for your catbox, like a basement or spare bathroom. In my case, my one and only bathroom is the only place in my apartment for the catbox, so I have to be on poop alert at all times. Let’s be honest, though. Poop is poop and it’s gonna stink. That’s why the air-freshener business is booming. The real odor culprit is urine. Raise your hand if you have ever tried a new brand of cat litter, only to walk into your house a few days later to find it smelling like a truck stop urinal. Few things are worse than that, but the good news is that the Breeze system eliminates urine odors REALLY well. They tell you to change the pad once a week for one cat, but in my house, it holds up for 8 – 10 days with two cats and NO urine odor. My cats love to drink plenty of fresh water, so they do pee quite a bit. I don’t know if the pine pellets that are mixed in are helping with the odor control; that’s certainly a possibility. I guess I’ll find out when I run out of pine pellets to mix in with the Breeze pellets.The best news of all is that for the first time in years, I am living without cat litter tracked all over my house. This is the first time in years that my floors have not needed sweeping/vacuuming on a daily basis, sometimes twice a day. I debated whether to give the Breeze system 4 or 5 stars, because of the poop odor thing, but ultimately it has changed my life for the better, so 5 stars it is.~ A word about flushability. Some here have said that they just flush the poop with a few of the pellets stuck to it down the toilet. I called the Breeze hotline on the box and was told that they absolutely do not advise flushing the pellets down the toilet. They will also send you coupons if you ask. 🙂 ~Variation: Size: 7.8 Pound (Pack of 1)Color: Green

   TopTeach – October 23, 2013

   5.0 out of 5 stars A Tale of Two Kitties While searching for a more effective litter solution for my big boy, Howie and the newbie, little George, I encountered this product and read through ALL of the reviews. I had been about to purchase that kitty litter robot thing for like 500 dollars, because I honestly can’t stand the smell and constant attention that traditional clay littler with a covered box requires. Changing the litter weekly, and lugging the soiled litter outside to the trash container was making me crazy. The urine smell and clay dust was a constant, and while scooping the poop into the litter locker was easy enough, the caked urine at the bottom of the box was too gross for me, and often just fell apart, leaving enough dirty litter in the box between the weekly litter changes to result in a constant, subtle urine smell. With hardwood floors, there was always some tracked litter on my hardwood floors that I couldn’t keep up with, even with my Wet-Jet on constant stand-by.When I saw the little bag of clay pellets, I was instantly suspicious. One bag just covers the surface of the box. I used two, because the boys are diggers. George is 14 weeks old, and had peed in the box twice before I emptied the second bag. He was literally dancing around in there, loving the noise the the clay pellets make. He adapted immediately to the system and hasn’t looked back since.Howie is a two-year-old, and weighs in at a whopping 21 pounds. He’s a sweet, lumpy shy-guy, and likes a clean litter box. I thought he would be thrilled, but he wouldn’t go near the thing. 6 hours after I set up the Breeze system, and he still hadn’t even tried. I started to consider the recommendation that I place a box of traditional litter near the new system, but just couldn’t bring myself to go out and purchase a box of clay litter. (let’s face it, this solution isn’t cheap) I didn’t sleep well that night. I found myself checking the box during the night to see if the event had occurred. It had not. In fact, he sat on his pink, velvet wing chair glaring at me, practically cross-eyed.Rising at 6, I left my bedroom and was hit immediately by the smell of cat feces, undiluted as it had previously been by the clay litter. There, uncovered in any way was evidence that Howie had found his courage, and interacted effectively with the new system. Scooping the poop is super easy, and once disposed of in the litter locker I have next to the box, left no lingering aroma. It took 18 hours, but Howie was on-board.The pads that come with the kit are pretty amazing. I found that I have to use two per week. One change on Sunday and one on Thursday. The system is pretty hands-off. The pad is easily disposed of, you simply slide the tray out and dump it in the trash. There is NO smell of urine whatsoever. That alone is worth the cost. There is nothing to mask the smell of cat feces, but that hasn’t been a problem. When you smell poop, just scoop it, and it’s over. The box always looks and smells clean, and there is no tracked litter anywhere. George loves to make a racket in there, and because it’s clay litter, it’s pretty noisy, but I find myself smiling when I hear it because I know that it will soon be over, I can scoop it up and toss it, and I didn’t have to spend a fortune on a robot kitty litter disposal machine. I am happy, the boys are happy, and I no longer have to worry about my mom stopping by and wrinkling up her nose at the smell. For me, this system is a major win.Variation: Size: 7.8 Pound (Pack of 1)Color: Green

   Tess – February 22, 2015

   5.0 out of 5 stars Best Cat Litter System Ever (AND Still)! This is like a THREE WOLF MOON t-shirt of litter boxes, except for real! This system is AWESOME and has changed my life. It is tidy, more sanitary, way less stinky than any of the systems I’ve tried, very easy to manage, well-designed, and cost-effective. I’ve tried just about everything under the sun, and this one is my favorite. My cats track about 3-4 pellets a day and, consequently, this box involves no annoying “sweeping around the litter box” routine. It’s true that it smells right after they go number 2, but after about 20 minutes, that smell goes away and there is no noxious ammonia smell filling the house, even when I walk in the door for the first time! I’ve been using the same batch of pellets for three weeks and I still can’t smell them. I scoop out the solids when I see them (1-2 times a day), which is way easier and quicker than scooping big giant, gloppy chunks of clumped clay litter. My cats started using it the first day and all I did was put it in the same spot and put some waste from their old box into it!This Breeze system is WELL WORTH the small investment. The money you will spend on the kit will make up for itself in about 1 month of not having to buy standard litter (or quicker depending on how pricey your normal litter is) and, given that, if the box itself ever wears out and you have to replace it, it’s STILL cost-effective because it comes with a month of supplies for 1 cat!Also, this may be different depending on your cat(s), but I am getting by just fine with one box for my two cats, the pads last about 5 days (they are about a dollar each on Amazon if you get 10 4-packs) and you have to get close to them (like within a foot) to notice a smell if your cats are fixed, and the pellets can go a whole month with my two cats without approaching the potential grossness of clump and scoop boxes after about a week. Tidy Cats doesn’t recommend that, of course, but this box is still a good investment even if your standards are higher than mine. ;)I see some reviews on here complaining about how the Breeze system deals with watery poo and poo smells. I’ll just say it is far easier to deal with the occasional mess than to deal with a crappy design daily. Also, if your cat has watery poo or really lingeringly stinky poo, it’s likely because of the food your feeding him/her or because of a medical issue that should be addressed regardless. I feed my cats Natural Choice and I can’t remember the last time they had diarrhea. Unlike a few people’s cats, my cats did not try to eat the pellets. If you’re worried about it (as I was – one of my cats loves to eat weird things) and still want to try this, I would recommend buying a bag of pellets first and mixing them with your regular litter (building the “not food” association) and observing.The only thing that would make this box any cooler is if the pads/pellets were biodegradable. Given that, I’ve considered trying pea gravel with the pads.My litter box saga:I have two indoor cats and abhor the chore of dealing with their litter box (like I think any sane person would) and I have tried many, many approaches over the years and none of them have worked to my satisfaction until I tried the Breeze. Here’s a run down.Standard clump and scoop litter box: This works OKAY as long as you scoop daily. However, the clumps are large and hard to remove, the litter is not cheap and starts to smell quite ammonia-y regardless of scooping diligence within a few days (even with the pricey litters), the box gets very messy very quickly, and it always bothered my back.Sifting litter box with clumping litter: Nice for the first few days of fresh litter, but the clumping litter clogs the grate and if you’re like me your back will hurt after you spend a few minutes trying to shake it vigorously enough to go through the grate. Also very hard to clean and messy.Standard litter box with crystal litter: Great at first, but the crystal litter does not last as long as they claim – it begins to smell VERY ammonia-y after about a week and a half. With the extra price, I did not find it to be a good trade off.Automatic litter boxes (the leading brands at the time): These are an overpriced nightmare. The noise and motion scared my cats and even with the time delay on these systems, the rake becomes obstructed and ineffective within about two days. Plus, they are a huge hassle to clean with all the moving parts, they get quite gross quite quickly, and they are ridiculously expensive.Omega Paw box with clumping litter: I LOVED this box until the plastic began to loosen and warp after about 6 months and lots of dirty litter started to fall onto my floor every time I rolled it over. Too expensive to replace. Never tried crystal litter in it, but if you use non-clumping litter, you might as well just scoop the solids yourself – it’s not that difficult by comparison. Also, a covered box in my opinion is like Schrodinger’s box when it comes to cleanliness. You kinda know it’s unpleasant in there, but you have to open the box to find out!Catit Design SmartSift: I really wanted to love this box especially after dropping $80 on it, but it wasn’t so smart as it turns out. Even after I modified it with a rubber gasket from the hardware store because my cats were urinating too high and it was ending up on the moving parts under the hood, I was still finding urine and bits of dirty litter under there. It was far too difficult to keep reasonably clean.UPDATE (10/2/2016): I don’t review products very often, but this one is a goodie. I still have the very same box and I still love it. Box is still in good shape and works just as well as when new. This is one of the best products on the market for cat owners – actually changed my life, lol. It’s just one of those things that’s so simple and perfect, you don’t know why anyone ever did it differently. I hope they don’t ruin it by raising the price on the refills too much, but so far so good. One thing I will say is that it probably isn’t as good for indoor outdoor cats that use the restroom mainly in the great outdoors. This is because the pads really should be changed on a regular basis, and it can get unnecessarily expensive if they’re hardly being used.UPDATE (3/28/2018): Still wondering why everyone else treats litter boxes like rocket science when this design is so simple and so effective. I still have the first litter box I bought. I bought a second, updated one recently so both my cats could have their own. The first one is holding up well after years of use. Only non-issue with it is that the guard pops up on the front a little, which has essentially no effect because there still isn’t a gap between the tray and the guard. It has developed a couple of calcium (?) build-up type stains in the tray, but still looks amazingly clean for a 4 year old litter box. I’m glad the Breeze has some market competition for the pads and the pellets, because it keeps the price down on the original products and if they kept raising the price, I’d make my own.Variation: Size: 7.8 Pound (Pack of 1)Color: Green

   Infiniti – November 19, 2015

   5.0 out of 5 stars There's NOTHING Better. Period. Short answer: This is the BEST litter system you can have in your home for ALL of the issues you face with litter boxes: Cost/Urine Smell/Tracking.I will start out by saying that we have 7 cats in the apartment. I personally have 5 and my roommate has 2. I first bought this system on August 13, 2015 and I’m just reviewing now as I like to wait and see how products work for me after a while before I review.I started with one system to see how it would be and kept my traditional litter box for about 4 days. My 3 kittens got big enough where it was clear that I needed another litter box but I was so, so, so, SO over the litter being tracked everywhere with the 2 adult cats and the kittens constantly in and out of it. It felt like all I was doing is sweeping up tracked litter. So, I decided to try this system to see if it helped with that issue. The reviews were excellent, so I went for it. I figured that it may be a little gross but I would return it if it didn’t work for me and my cat family-luckily returning it was NEVER an issue because I love this system.The cats were very interested and at first would only poop in the Breeze, I think because they didn’t understand how to cover their pee. But the thing is that they don’t have to cover their pee with the Breeze, it just goes down the grate into the pad. I was so impressed with the fact that there was NO smell and tracking is just the pellets-easy to pick up and toss back in because no matter what, cats will kick some out. I bought a tiny little dust pan at the 99 cent store to quickly pick up several at a time (and not touch them and have to wash my hands frequently) and pellets on the floor vs little granules is a HUGE improvement. Much more easy to contain and your home doesn’t feel like one big litter box with litter all over the place.After about 4 days I removed the old box and ordered by second Breeze. When my new roommate moved in we got a 3rd Breeze and it’s a good amount of boxes for the 7 cats. If we did the recommended amount of Breeze boxes for 7 cats we would have about 15+ boxes and that’s just NOT necessary. Of course, I work from home and can scoop out the poop consistently (I’l get to the poop situation a little later in my review).If you have lots of cats and are away from home for long periods then you should get extra boxes-I think that the amount that they suggest is overkill but it IS a good idea to add more pellets than what they system comes with. I suggest you buy the system, see what I mean and order extra pellets sooner than later, I should have done that prior to when I really needed more, because the cats seemed happier with extra pellets and they were able to cover poop better.I’ve tried many brands of litter and my old litter box was the kind with the hood and the swinging door but that didn’t stop the tracking issue.The bottom line is that the same things happen with any litter: you get tracking, and one of your hobbies is trying to contain it, because stepping in it SUCKS, having it all over your house SUCKS. Another problem: you may have a few days of a stink free litter box, but no matter how tight clumping litter can be, or how good it is at odor control-you’ll get bits that fall off and after a few days you have a pee smell that will only go away when you clean the whole box out, and a few days later you’ll have the same problem. But you know this.With The Breeze System you don’t have these problems.First off, the pad that goes underneath holds A LOT of urine and it contains the urine smell almost TOO WELL. If you want a litter box that makes you forget what it’s like to have a smelly pee box-this is the only solution. It will ONLY smell once it is beyond full, so try to remember to check the pad every couple of days. It’s not the end of the world if it gets over full. Just put on gloves and drain into your toilet or a bathtub. It’s not the funnest thing in the world but it’s not THAT bad either. I think I push it by forgetting until I start to smell it, but I can’t seem to get to it before it’s beyond full! And I’m a bit ashamed to say that with all of these cats I’ll change the pads probably every 2 weeks! But I have never had an over flow problem…I haven’t pushed it THAT far. However, I do have an out-of-sight/out-of-mind issue with changing the pad, and that’s just because it doesn’t smell. So, having extra pee to deal with draining if you forget to change it and not smelling pee is FAR better than CONSTANTLY smelling pee (like you do now). =/As far as the pellets go, they are like rocks. They will not disintegrate and probably last forever. The only reason you’ll need more is because the pellets stick to the poop. What I do is scoop up the poop and shake it in the scooper so the loose pellets fall off so they aren’t wasted.One reviewer said that she washed the pellets after a few weeks. I have done this three times since I have had this system. What I do is dump the pellets into a the plain litter box that I used for when the kittens got to the “litter box” stage of their lives. Then I soak them in hot water in the tub for about 20 minutes, then I add Natures Miracle and let it soak some more. Then I rinse, dump them back into the Breeze box and leave outside in the sun so it can drain and dry. The pellets are like new, and smell like Natures Miracle. I’m sure you can do this same thing with any other cleaner, or none at all. The point is to get the old poop that is stuck to the pellets is removed and you have good-as-new pellets and saved money.DA POOP!Now, the issue with poop is that the cats will cover it but because it’s not like traditional litter, it cannot be completely covered up due to the nature of the pellets, so if your cat dumps an extra nasty, smelly pile-you will smell it, the smell WILL travel. But that can also happen with traditional litter. Like I said before, extra pellets in the box is the way to go, and helps in this regard. A good thing is that you (and your cats) will have a cleaner litter box because you will be getting rid of the poop much more frequently than you are now.If you’re interested in any “cons” here they are:-The pellets are loud when the cats are kicking it around. If you’re a light sleeper and the box is close to your bedroom (or in it) and you have an energetic cat who likes to really go to town on kicking or covering-it will probably wake you up. BUT I will also say that I am a light sleeper and at first it did startle me when they were in the bathroom, but I pretty much got used to the new noise.-The pellets do come out of the litter box when the cats jump out. I have a couple of cats who act like their pee or poop will jump up and attack them so they jump out so they won’t be killed. When my more tempered cats use the boxes; hardly any come out. To help with flying pellets I turned my box around, so the big opening faces the tub and left a couple of inches for them to walk on that side, if they choose to instead of climbing over the high part, but they can step in easily that way too. Turning the litter box will drastically reduce how many pellets fly out of the box. I would also recommend that you put something under the box (I use a throw rug from IKEA) and leave some room between the box and the wall/tub. I have my 2 boxes on one and that plus turning the boxes around really help with the amount of pellets that get on the floor. I do wish they would come up with a hood you could buy, THAT would make this system pretty much perfect.-Kittens just LOVE to play with the rolling pellets-especially if they get in the tub. Keep your tub’s drain covered so they don’t fall in. Do not encourage them to play with them, and pick them up from your tub/floor quickly.-It’s a fact that at first your cats will wonder what the hell is going on with their litter, maybe they’ll look at you and think, “Is this that Newspaper crap???” NOPE kitty, not even close.They like to dig, they like to cover (the nice ones do anyway) and the pellets are very different from what they are used to. They won’t like it so much at first, they will act weird when stepping in them, but they are round and won’t hurt their feet. Trust me, they will get used to it. My adult cats were much less excited about the new litter, but within a few days they were on board. And I’m pretty sure that they are happier with this. How could they not be? Their litter doesn’t stink, they aren’t standing in old pee (and not walking all over your floors, counters, beds with urine on their feet and dirty kitty paw prints will never be seen again!!!) and their poop gets picked up because it’s not buried under litter…And even if the little brats don’t like it, I DO. I LOVE IT! I will NEVER EVER, EVER go back to a traditional litter box…And since THEY don’t work or PAY or CLEAN up after themselves, I GET THE FINAL VOTE!-Trying to purchase the pellets or pads in a store is impossible, and I have NO idea why…However, I’m sure even if stores did sell them that they would be way more expensive than purchasing on Amazon anyway! So WHO CARES about this little issue??? Buy the 6 pack of pellets, buy the 2 or 4 pack of pads here on Amazon and you’re good for many months. The first time I bought more it was the 6 pack of pellets and 4 pack of pads (16 pads) and it was $65 for 3 months for 7 cats and I still have a couple of pads left. Try and beat that with all of the other positives I’ve listed. You just won’t be able to.I’m just now purchasing my 2nd round of 6 pack pellets and this time I’m buying the 2 pack of pad (8 total pads) for $15 instead of 16 as they last a long time, but buying the 6 pack of pellets is the most economical way to go as single packs are about $10 each.Enjoy your new Breeze System…Oh, and one last and final tip…Each system comes with a $7 coupon for another system. If you’re planning on getting more than one, wait for the first one and buy your additional ones with your coupon. Amazon is the best company and have gone BEYOND in many ways to make my life easier…I called Amazon to apply the credit because when ordering as there isn’t a way to add this type of coupon on your own.Variation: Size: 7.8 Pound (Pack of 1)Color: Green

   5.0 out of 5 stars Breeze Litter Box Hack-Perfect! I really liked my Breeze litter box, but now I LOVE it. Seriously, this hack is life changing. I have to share it with the world. With my regular Breeze system, there was still rank urine odor I just had to live with. Also, my cats pee a lot and that pad would get pretty soaked and smell even more. This new method, dare I say, is perfect?Why you need to do this.-It’s really easy to do.-There is zero pee smell. ZERO. The only scent you get is fresh pine.-It’s sooo easy to clean.-As long as you scoop out the solids, the litter is like fresh liter. Every. Single. Day. Forever and ever.-It’s so inexpensive.I found the hack on Youtube (Thank you Victorian Gardens Cattery). Here is what you need:-Puppy pads 30 x 23-Equine pine bedding (about $7.50 for 40 pounds) or pine litter (more expensive)-So Phresh plastic cat box from Petco 19.25×13 x 5 (or other plastic bin with the same dimensions)*Note: If you have the older version of the Breeze litter box, use Petmate large litter pans.-Standard or hooded Breeze cat boxStep 1: Put a puppy pad in the Petco litter boxStep 2: Take out the tray from Breeze litter box (you don’t need it anymore)Step 3. Place the Breeze litter box inside Petco box. It will fit snugly with room underneath to catchthe sawdustStep 4. Place a generous amount of pine pellets in the Breeze cat box (ah, pine smell)Now all you have to do is scoop the solids and give it a stir with the scooper when your cat urinates. The pine absorbs the pee, turns to sawdust and falls through the Breeze slats. To clean the sawdust, just get out a new pad, lift the Breeze box off and place on the puppy pad. Take the corners of the old pad, draw them together and toss it in a bag. Now all you have to do is pick up the pad and Breeze box and place in the Petco litter pan. That’s it. There is something so satisfying about stirring the pellets and seeing the sawdust disappear, leaving only fresh pine behind, that it stops being a chore.Original Review:This litter box has changed my life. The worst part of cleaning the litter box were the clumps of urine. Yuck. Now there’s no smell, cleaning the box is a -pardon the pun- a breeze, and there isn’t litter tracked all through the house.Being the frugal person that I am, I came up with my own pellet and pad alternatives. I tried both and they work just as well for odor control and easy clean up. Everyone knows about the puppy pads. That’s an easy one. But replacing the pellets wasn’t as obvious…until I found a package of dried navy beans in my pantry. Epiphany! They worked perfectly. They were cheap, didn’t absorb the urine (if you’ve ever had to soak beans, you know it takes a long time for them to absorb water), the right size, the right texture, biodegradable and white like the pellets, so aesthetically pleasing. The cats took to the mixture of navy beans and pellets with no problem. Pinto beans are even cheaper, but I liked the look of the white navy beans. The cost breakdown is below.Pellets $2.27/pound (Walmart online 3.5 pounds/$7.96) to $2.28/pound (Amazon bulk of 21 pounds/$47.94Navy Beans-$1 to $1.30 a pound (grocery store)Pinto Beans- 74 cents a pound (Walmart 4 lbs/$2.98)Regular Breeze pads- $1.05 a pad (Amazon bulk of 60 for $60) to $1.34 a pad (Walmart online 4 pads/$5.36)Puppy pads- 15 cents a pad (Costco 100/$15 ) to 28 cents a pad (Walmart 14 pads/$4)Hope this helps others because the cost of the pellets and pads kept me away from this litter box for years. I’m so glad I made the switch. I added a photo showing 2 pounds of navy beans added to the pellets.Variation: Size: 7.8 Pound (Pack of 1)Color: Green

   KC – June 2, 2026

   4.0 out of 5 stars Good system! But not for my cat I personally loved the Purina Breeze litter system, it worked far better for me than a traditional litter box. I’ve always hated clay litter tracking, and haven’t been good about scooping consistently.Breeze fixed both those issues for me- the pellets track far less and aren’t awful to step on, and I’ve only needed to scoop once every day or two, then replace the pad once a week.The box itself is easy to disassemble and clean, although I think a month (as recommended) may be too long between cleanings. After removing the pellets, the box itself smelled pretty rancid. I would say go 2-3 weeks between full cleanings, if you have the budget to spend on more pellets.The worst (and best) part is that the zeolite pellets are no good at masking the smell of poops. This works well for me, because it forces me to scoop as soon as my cat takes a dump. But, the room does smell bad afterwards. Although I’ve never had an issue with smelling the cat urine, the pad absorbs it very well.My cat, however, disagrees with my preferences. He has instead chosen to pee on whatever fabric he finds laying on my floor (clothes, blankets, etc.) because he does not like the litter system. I can only assume it has to do with the smells sticking around, or perhaps the texture of the pellets.Either way, after 5 months of this I will unfortunately be parting ways with my Purina Breeze system, and be returning to the shackles of clay litter.4/5, would recommend Purina Breeze!Variation: Size: 7.8 Pound (Pack of 1)Color: Green

   5.0 out of 5 stars If I Had Only Known I Would Have Made the Swith Years Ago! Love this kitty litter box. Tried it originally with the breeze pellets included in the starter kit but switched to pine pellets almost immediately. The design is amazing, well thought out and simple to use. Would prefer better materials but it works in plastic and my cats do not object to plastic. This one has a pee pad in a drawer just below the main box. The cat pees on the pine pellets, the pine pellets absorb the pee, expand and disintegrate, falling through the grating on the bottom of the main cat box. I’ve had the box for over a month and a half and mostly I move the pellets around some, last night was the first time I had to make a concerted effort to push them through the grate. In this case it was because the pull out drawer below the grate was full and the pee pad needed to be cleaned out. And that was an amazingly simple procedure. Pull the pan out, fold the flaps of the pee pad and toss. I love it. I used to spend hours on my kitty boxes each morning. Both my cats feel it is their god given right to make me as much work as possible, scattering their clay litter across their bathroom, into my living room and office. The made a mess out of everything. Pine litter is wonderful. They do not pick it up in their feet the way they pick up clay litter and each pellet is large and heavy so it is not worth their while to go nuts covering their poo. You also have the fact that the pine pellets have that pine smell and they don’t seem concerned, they spread a light layer and move on.Now I will admit it was a tad difficult to get both my cats on board with the new box and pine pellets. BUT, I have a chocolate Persian, 2nd rarest colorway and prissy beyond belief. In the end I wore her down. Put the pine pellets on top of her clay litter and just kept clearing out the clay litter as she used her box replacing it with more and more pine. It took well over a month till she would acknowledge the new box and even longer to get her to use it. But the new box is clean and easy to keep up and I eventually installed it in their main bathroom and her old box is stinky and a bit of a mess and I put that box in the temporary spot where I keep put the new kitten. This week she started using the new box, voluntarily. If this cat can make the switch any cat can. One day a few years ago I cut up fresh chicken and put three bite size morsels in her wet food. She absolutely refused to eat her wet food while the three morsels were in the bowl. She then went on a hunger strike to the point where I had to take her to the vet….. She is prissy beyond belief.Variation: Size: 7.8 Pound (Pack of 1)Color: Green

   5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing I love this box. My house never smells anymore. Easy to scoop, absorbs pretty good. The size is perfect. The pellets and pads are a little pricey, but well worth it.Variation: Size: 7.8 Pound (Pack of 1)Color: Green
