Cats are finicky creatures, so some trial and error may be involved
Photo: Auscape/Getty/Universal Images Group via Getty Compared to dog parents who have to take their pups on daily walks , cat owners have it pretty easy with their litter-box–trained pets. However, a litter box comes with its own set of problems, including odors, dust, and, of course, the occasional cat who refuses to use it. Lots of these issues can be managed by choosing the right kitty litter, but with so many types on the market , finding the right kind can be tricky.
Best overall cat litter World’s Best Cat Litter Clumping Formula $27 Unscented, clumping, and made from corn kernels, World’s Best lives up to its name and is a favorite of both Bosley and Kerrie McKeon, resident cat expert at the animal welfare and adoption organization Bideawee. McKeon likes that it doesn’t produce as much dust as other litters and that it’s long-lasting. “It’s clumping, it’s natural, and I have asthma and allergies and it doesn’t set anything off for me,” she says.

For these cats, experts recommend looking for a low- or no-dust litter. “Imagine trying to use the bathroom in a dust storm,” says Bosley. “Not fun.” Litter that produces a lot of dust when cats dig in it and kick it up can also be unpleasant for humans, too.

Like most experts, he prefers clumping litter because it’s “the easiest to scoop and the best at containing odors,” and particularly likes this “multi-cat strength” formula.
