OAKLAND, Calif., Feb. 8, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- The makers of Fresh Step® litter are debuting a new product that pairs the strength of Fresh Step with the power of Febreze™. New Fresh Step with the power of Febreze doesn't just mask odors, but eliminates them for 10 days, guaranteed. It is the first and only litter to feature the power of Febreze, making it possible for litter odors to vanish. That's something even cats find amazing!
New Fresh Step with the power of Febreze provides long-lasting 10-day odor control and leaves behind a fresh, clean scent. It also locks in liquid and odor with Fresh Step's ClumpLock™ Technology, making it easier to scoop. And now it has a lower dust formula for cleaner surfaces and clearer air.
"Fresh Step with the power of Febreze was created to make both cats and their owners happy by making odors vanish," says Nick Meyer, Director of Marketing, Pet Products. "By partnering with Febreze, Fresh Step created a litter worth celebrating."
Giving Love By the Scoopful
Fresh Step is committed to the overall health and well-being of cats, especially those in shelters. It has donated millions of dollars to animal welfare causes and more than one million scoops of litter to shelters nationwide through its Million Meow Mission program, which aims to help improve the lives of shelter cats and help them find forever homes.
"At Fresh Step, we understand the immense amount of love and joy our cuddly cats bring us," said Meyer, "which is why we are committed to giving back through our Million Meow Mission program."
Through the Fresh Step Paw Points loyalty program members can donate their Paw Points codes to support shelters and receive a $2-off Fresh Step coupon. In turn, participating shelters can redeem Paw Points for Fresh Step litter, as well as other cat necessities, care items and toys.
New Fresh Step with the power of Febreze is available in Odor Shield, Multi-Cat, Extreme and Lightweight Extreme litter and is available in grocery, pet specialty, mass merchandise and drug stores nationwide.
