I use the walnut by Blue Buffalo, I do not see too much dust, but I have dark hardwood floors. I move their boxes and clean with a microfiber cloth and there is a small amount of brown dust. I also can see it the dust on the cats paws right after they are done in the box. It does not bother me and I clean my floor and litter mats every couple of days. It seems to stay only in the room the box is in. I guess it would depend on what type of floors you have and how easy to clean it would be for you. I have allergies that are mild, but I do not have asthma. The amount of dust to me is not nearly what the clay scoopable litters are.
I too use Dr. Elsey's litter. Out of all the litters I've tried (a lot) it's for sure the lowest in dust.
You might want to check out some of the corn or walnut based litters too as they can be lower in dust.
Thank you , I will check it out. .. I found Paws & Claws cat litter at Tractor Supply . It is fairly low dust . I will see how it works .
Dr. Elsey has one that is specifically low in dust, called Respiratory Relief, made for felines with asthma. It's in green packaging and has high reviews of it being low in dust particles. If your cats develop/have respiratory issues, there's a good chance it's the litter that could be the issue.
Another vote for Dr. Elsey's precious ultra in the blue bag. It's heavy, but low in dust and unscented that's acceptable to most cats. It's on sale at Chewy and Amazon right now, for less than $15 for 40 lbs, which is usually a lot cheaper than most commercial brands out there. I know someone complained it's heavy, but I actually prefer heavy clay, the lighter stuff would tend to track further, in my opinion.
Oh, I didn't know they had decent scoopable clay litter at Tractor Supply! Good to know. I live in the city, and the closest one is 40+ miles one way, and I'm not even sure it's still in business. It is very affordable, though, looking at their prices online. I'm glad you've found something inexpensive. I used to use wood pellets before, but one of my cats had issues so I had to give in to scoopable clay. I also used to buy petco's brand of unscented clay litter, where you can refill your bucket. It was fine, but still dustier than Dr. Elsey's Precious Ultra, too.
