Boxiecat Cat Litter Reviews
We tested 1 Boxiecat product, priced from $27.99. Boxiecat Premium scored highest at 9.2/10 (tested Mar 1, 2026), built for lowest-maintenance scooping.
Every score below comes from the same dust, clumping, odor, tracking and value tests we run on every brand, updated through Mar 1, 2026.
Boxiecat is a clay litter out of Santa Monica, California, and the bag we tested is Boxiecat Premium. People buy it for the flat-top clumping and then judge it on price. Buy it for the numbers instead: 9.2 out of 10 overall, and no weak column anywhere on the card.
Dust came in at 0.04mg per pour, scored 9 out of 10, which is within a hair of the cleanest clay we have weighed. Clumps scored 9.4 and 94 percent of a 50-clump sample survived the drop test. Tracking scored 8.2, and we counted 10 granules inside the 12-inch zone around the box. Only two litters on this site have a granule count; the other, Dr. Elsey's Ultra, came in at 18.
It costs $27.99 a bag, $0.70 a pound and $0.55 a day, so value is its lowest score at 8. Ammonia over the box read 2 ppm at week one, 5 ppm at week two, 12 ppm at week three and 20 ppm at week four, which is when our tester called time on the box. That was a 90-day run with 6 cats across 3 homes.

It scored 9.2 out of 10, and it runs $0.55 a day against $0.43 for Dr. Elsey’s Ultra. That is 12 cents a day for flat-top clumps that sit where a scoop can reach them, and for the lower of the two stray-granule counts we have on record.

We ran it for 90 days with 6 cats across 3 homes. Clumping held at 9.4 with 94 percent clump survival, and ammonia stayed at 5 ppm through week two. It is built for a busy box.
Does Boxiecat track?
Less than any other clay we have scored. 10 granules inside the 12-inch perimeter zone, and 8.2 out of 10 on tracking against 7.3 or lower for every other clay bag we tested. Corn and crystal litters still beat it, both scoring 9 or better on tracking.
