The invention provides low-dust animal litters made from one or more ingredients that function as an animal litter and one or more polyols that function to control dust in the litter. The low-dust animal litters are made by selecting one or more litter ingredients suitable for making an animal litter and combining the litter ingredients with one or more polyols, generally by applying the polyols to the surface of one or more ingredients before or during the process of combining the ingredients to produce the litter.
