I have often thought that maybe the swheat scoop could be bad for my kitties if they have a wheat allergy. Right now one is sick and I've been told to eliminate wheat from her diet. I may try a different litter, even though I like this one so much (and I bought a years supply at black friday..) Doesn't hurt to try right?I tried the schweat scoop, it sent dust clouds up every time I tried to clean the litter boxes, plus I found roaches in it the last time!yuck! So I quit using it. Also my cats have allergies and the wheat aggravated it. Which Is a shame because I really wanted it to work for them.the only complaint about the walnut litter I have is the color. I wish it was lighter, because I have to monitor the urine of my uti prone kitty. I think I'm going to try pioneer pet grass seed again and hope they don't munch on It
