This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Fresh Step at Target for IZEA. All opinions are 100% mine.
Despite the fact that more cats than dogs are owned as pets in the United States*, cats often seem to get a bad rap and play the butt of jokes in the pet world. We always see funny memes on Facebook with cat sterotypes about how they are aloof, not sociable, selfish, have inflated egos, etc. Even though those stereotypes do have at least a bit of truth behind them, we still love our cats anyway! Maybe those things are actually a part of their charm. Cats can be independent and confident, but I know my cats still like to come in for snuggles. And those strong cat personalities also contribute to the funny things they do to make us smile. A day doesn’t go by when one of our cats doesn’t make me laugh out loud or give me material for fun Instagram posts.
But, one strong thing about cats that no one likes is strong litter box odor! Luckily, litter box odors can be another one of those stereotypes and not the actual case with your own litter box thanks to Fresh Step® with the power of Febreze™, which doesn’t just mask the odors, but eliminates them. It has 10-day odor control for even the strongest litter box odors, and leaves behind a fresh clean scent. There is even a 10-Day Continuous Odor Control GUARANTEE† With ClumpLock™ Odor Technology, it also locks in liquid and odor, making it easier to scoop. Easier clean-up is always a bonus!
While eliminating odors is my #1 priority, I also love that Fresh Step® with the power of Febreze™ has a new lower dust formula. It means no more dusty cat footprints leading up the basement steps. I want everything from the litter box to STAY in the litter box. We have been using this new formula for about a month now and both the cats and I have been enjoying the fresh-smelling air and neater litter box area.
Available at Target: I bought our Fresh Step® with the power of Febreze™ at Target, my go-to place for everyday pet supplies. With three cats and a dog, the pet supplies really add up. Head to Target this week to pick up yours AND score a great deal! From March 6 through March 12, buy two Fresh Step® and receive a $5 gift card! That $5 will let you buy some treats or toys for your cat – or you can spend it on yourself. Remember, cats are selfish so you can be too!

Stacie @ Divine Lifestyle says
Oh yeah. It’s not myth at all that cat waste is the stinkiest thing on earth. It’s worth it, though!
Catherine S says
This sounds like a great kitty litter. If I wasn’t allergic and I could have a pet it would be a cat.
Betsy Segars says
Your cat is so pretty! I have a cat that I absolutely adore. Before we got her, I despised cats – funny how things work out. We’ve been looking for a great litter for her, we’ll have to try out Fresh Step!
Pam says
We have five cats so the type of litter we choose is so important. This is actually the brand we use.
Marcie Wahrer says
Your sweet kitty is beautiful. We don’t currently have a cat, but if we did I would not want it to be obvious as soon as people entered our home.
Toni says
No one like cat box odor! Ug. Love a product that helps that out.
Liz Mays says
Your cat is so cute! Fresh Step is a winner for us too. We never have to worry about our cat’s scents.
Jeanine says
Such a cute cat! We love fresh step. We have 3 cats and you wouldn’t ever know it by litter which is fabulous!
Barbara Burns says
I’ve had a cat only once in my life, when one of my college roommates (apartment-mates, I suppose) got one. Yep, her litter box was quite stinky, and -lucky us!- the only spot for it was by the front closet when you walked in the door. Yay! Ahh, if only we’d had Fresh Step back then. 😉
Nicole Escat says
I have a cat and he’s so funny. He used to sleep in the morning but he’s awake in the evening and when he’s sleeping his mouth is widely open. Anyway, I think i need that Fresh Step because so that my cat will always smells good.
Amanda O. says
What a cute cat! We have always had dogs, but I’ve always wanted a cat at home.
Christie says
The pictures are seriously adorable1 I think cats have great personalities, just like us
Tracey says
I’ve actually only ever had dogs so this was an interesting read for me! Seems like cats can have big personalities too.
Tracy @ Ascending Butterfly says
I am a Dog Lover and have never owned a Cat as a pet. Oddly we’ve had almost everything else thanks to my step dad, at one time we had a Rottweiler, Reticulated Python and Iguana in the house! I had friends with cats though so I could always get a cat fix if I wanted one! 🙂
Shannon Gurnee says
Oh my gosh – your cat is so cute! Fresh Step is a really great cat litter to have and use in your home!
Terri Irvin says
I have had cats my entire life and I currently have two adult cats and one kitten. All of my cats have always been aloof and independent at times but they all like their attention too but it is on their terms.
