Tough on odors. Easy on you.

Even your cat’s impressed: Fresh Step litter brings you the latest in odor control technology.

00:00:00,129 --> 00:00:02,210

Say hello to the new and improved Fresh Step.

00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:03,920

We share your love of cats.

00:00:04,210 --> 00:00:07,440

That's why we go to extreme lengths in our laboratories for your litter,

00:00:07,690 --> 00:00:12,439

and why we obsess over state of the art technology like paw activated odor control.

00:00:12,649 --> 00:00:15,050

We supercharge 4 million particles in each

00:00:15,050 --> 00:00:17,399

box with odor absorbing activated charcoal.

00:00:17,610 --> 00:00:18,690

Why activated charcoal?

00:00:18,850 --> 00:00:22,229

Charcoal traps odor particles like a sponge to keep your home fresh,

00:00:22,450 --> 00:00:24,409

and thanks to our low dust formulas,

00:00:24,489 --> 00:00:25,329

it will stay fresh.

00:00:25,632 --> 00:00:28,152

We've also upped our clumping game by absorbing liquid

00:00:28,152 --> 00:00:30,493

and odor on contact to form tight clumps,

00:00:30,632 --> 00:00:34,213

because clumps that actually stay together means you enjoy easier cleanup.

00:00:34,393 --> 00:00:35,303

Trouble deciding?

00:00:35,472 --> 00:00:36,772

Let's choose your odor fighter.

00:00:36,952 --> 00:00:38,983

You'll never go wrong with our core products.

00:00:39,233 --> 00:00:41,752

Try OdorShield for 15-day odor control,

00:00:41,912 --> 00:00:44,263

Extreme Clump for tight clumps and easy scooping.

00:00:44,463 --> 00:00:45,783

For specialty preferences,

00:00:46,033 --> 00:00:46,952

try heavy duty,

00:00:47,062 --> 00:00:48,862

our strongest odor control formula.

00:00:49,062 --> 00:00:50,752

Clean paws for low tracking.

00:00:50,895 --> 00:00:52,736

Scented and unscented options,

00:00:52,976 --> 00:00:57,285

or Ere for a litter that absorbs more moisture for fewer box changeouts.

00:00:57,616 --> 00:00:58,846

Got convenience on your mind?

00:00:59,175 --> 00:01:00,395

Check out our easy to pour,

00:01:00,535 --> 00:01:01,916

easy to store 4 pack,

00:01:02,055 --> 00:01:05,075

or powerful odor control in our lightweight formula.

00:01:05,456 --> 00:01:06,615

So whatever your need is,

00:01:06,856 --> 00:01:08,975

we have a product that offers a solution,

00:01:09,216 --> 00:01:10,255

tested in our lab,

00:01:10,405 --> 00:01:11,596

approved by your cat,

00:01:11,716 --> 00:01:13,246

unnoticed by your guests.

00:01:13,496 --> 00:01:14,136

Fresh stuff,

00:01:14,216 --> 00:01:16,115

is it crazy or is it love?
