Default Did I just find Megazorb?

I was in the pet shop yesterday and looked through the incredibly tiny small animal selection. I turned around to see the shelves of cat litter and saw a product that looked suspiciously like pictures I've seen of Megazorb! I even smelled it and yes, I would describe that as creamy

According to the proprieter it doesn't come in larger bags. There wasn't even a readily identifiable name on the bag for me to be able to look it up. A lot of descriptors, no brand

Anyway, it said on the bag that it was made of cellulose. Could that be Megazorb? I would love if someone could give me a good detailed description of what Megazorb looks and feels like so I can judge for myself!

Megazorb smells creamy and is like little odd shaped balls it's squishy and the colour is a creamy brown, so it could well be megazorb

Hm, it all matched up until the colour. This stuff looked bright white, like it had been bleached. Is it less safe if it's been bleached?

No actually, but I thought it was just me and wouldn't admit I couldn't find it

Hmm...ok that looks a bit fluffier than what I saw. It was in more "solid-looking" balls. Even the bag said they were firm on the outside but soft on the inside I've got a few other suspects though available at the pet store that I'm going to take a closer look at. One's called Total Comfort from Kaytee and another is Soft-Sorbent from the same company. Sigh...I'll keep looking!

The only other option is to buy an entire pallet and have it shipped over here, lol!
