Not Good on its own - Won't buy again 👎
I used to mix this with a light clay based litter and it worked well. But on its own, not so much. The cats track this everywhere, there's no odour control and if you miss a day by accident, this litter will turn to a soggy mess and smell is awful 😞

Best litter out there
Tried a few and this is easily my favourite. It clumps really well and reduces odours noticeably. I buy the 40kg bag which lasts at least 9 months with my one cat.

Bengal kitten approval 🐾😻
This litter is great, I wanted a product that was eco friendly, and one that clumps, and one that wouldn'tbeak the bank. This litter does it all, soft on my kittens toe beans, eco friendly, clumps, and doesn't leave any odour.
I scoop every day, and do a full clean once a month in both my kittens litter boxes, as he does his number 2s outside when I walk him.
5 stars from us ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

What a mistake
Tried trasioning from clay, rescue cat was used to wood at the sanctuary unfortunately by the time the tray was complete wood she refused to use it and decided the carpets were a better proposition the wood pellets are far too sharp, went back to clay and she resumed using the trays

Worst litter ever
The pieces are massive, this litter does not clump at all and amplifies the smell of the cat poop, it is really bad
Good litter, pack unsure
I do not recall the exact bag size, but it was easy to clean and worked for both cats with minimal dust.

Easy clumps
This 20 litre bag lasted our two cats for weeks and clumps quickly with less tracking.

Great low-dust litter
I tried the larger bag in our home and it clumps well, is easy to scoop, and lasts a long time. My cat took to it immediately and there is little tracking.

Small pack was dusty
The smaller bag did not work well for our litter tray; it scattered and created more dust than expected.

Reliable litter
Very absorbent and light, our rescue cats accepted it straight away and cleaning is simple.

Absorbent but smelly
Very absorbent, clumps very well, doesn’t track much but it does not absorb odours well at all especially urine so I probably won’t be buying it again

Excellent Product
This is an excellent litter. Low dust, lightweight, clumps and cleans very well. My cats seem much happier with this than with clay type litter. Lasts a long time too, so quite economical

Effective, but messy!
I have bought one 40L pack of this cat litter. It has lasted 2 and a half months for two indoor cats. The litter box gets refilled everyday 10 days. However, I have to hoover and sweep every day as a result! The tracking is really bad. The litter gets caught in their paws, and it spreads throughout the house. But in exchange for this, I am no longer having to buy cat litter every week. The clumping is 10/10. This helps the cat litter to last so long. I am going to buy another bag!

Best litter so far
I’ve been trying different litters , clumping , non-clumping and this one seems best so far . Occasionally sticks to cats paws for a while as we do find it on the sofas etc .

Great but not the “original”
I have used this ever since I first got a cat, as has my daughter for her cats. Very little smell & clumps reasonably well. However we agree that it not the same as before. We could flush it down the toilet safely but now it doesn’t flush away but sits in the bowl. We are having to dispose of wet clumps in poo bags & put in the bin which defeats the object. It is still my preferred litter but I’m a little disappointed by the change.

Very Messy
Really messy so I didn't like it. My cat hated it think she found it sensitive on her paws.

Our Cats Prefer Cat's Best in their litter boxes
Some of the small granules do travel outside the tray, but not nearly as much as other litters that I have tried. The plus points are:
▪️lack of odours coming out into the room ... solids and urine rapidly dried up
▪️ easy to filter solids and wet clumps out and replenish.
Overall excellent

Great litter
Really absorbant, cats will use this wood one were as other brands they won't use trays. Less smell from trays. Easy to pick out lumps.

Always chosen
Though this litter tracks around the area, it is by far the best one I have used. It is expensive but is generally economical in use as less is wasted when cleaning and refreshing. I foster cats and they, and my own, all use it with no problem.

Zooplus good. Product awful.
I’ve been using this litter for the past 15 years and recently got a new bag. It is a different colour (lighter sandy colour) and does not clump as well. My cats are covered in dust after use.
Really disappointing, so wonder if there has been to a change to the formula or if it is an issue with this batch.

Cat litter
We really like it! We've tried quite a few and this one is honestly great! Yes, it does get a bit dusty when you pour it in, but I have no issues when cleaning out the litter box! It clumps really well and you don't smell any urine or anything like that. I remove the big messes straight away, so there's no bad smell at all! The bag lasts me a really long time. I have two tomcats and they love it too! It has a pleasant, woody scent. There are a few bits in front of the litter box, but compared to other litters, it's much less!
I can only recommend it!

Universal cat litter
Our kitten spreads these way-too-fine granules everywhere because they get stuck in everything. Not recommended...

Always the best
I've been using this sand for the past three years and it’s never let me down. It’s honestly the least smelly litter I’ve ever tried. About four months ago, I also bought an automatic litter box (CATLINK Open-X), and this sand worked perfectly with it straight away.

It used to be better.
I've been using this litter for a few years now, and so far it's the best I've found, but its quality is going down. The first ones I bought lasted much longer than the more recent ones. In other words, before I could go much longer without having to change all the litter, but now it turns to dust much faster than before.

Price gone through the roof
Every day it's more expensive and lower quality. I had been using it for years, but you can consider this customer lost.

Abusive price increase
With the constant price increases of this product, I won’t be buying it again. It’s a good product, but there are cheaper alternatives that are also very good.

The best for me, even if my cats leave little bits of sawdust every time they leave the litter box.
It absorbs smells really well and is easy to scoop because it clumps together, plus I can throw the solid waste straight into the toilet. Brilliant!

This bag is rubbish
Never had any problems with it, it was always good cat litter. Until the day I needed it, I open the bag and it's all just sawdust... dust, loads of dust. Not good litter like the cat litter pellets should be. Up to now, I still haven't got my money back and I can't return it, even though I suggested it. Really disappointing!

Handy but very dusty
Lightweight litter, very absorbent and does a great job masking smells, but it creates loads of dust...

Something's happened…
I used to be delighted with this litter because it clumped well and produced very little dust. But now the litter ends up all over the house and the pee doesn't clump into balls like it used to—it just falls apart and spreads throughout the litter, which means it starts to smell unbearable much sooner than before... Really disappointing...

Super litter
This litter is great for my cats. It clumps well, smells good, and in my opinion, it's much better for the cat than clay litter. I only ever order this wood litter.

Bad
Gets stuck in the cats' paws and fur… the whole toilet mat is covered, you can't shake it off the mat… it's like it's glued to it. The clumps are very weak and break apart before you can pick them up… then dirty sand with urine spreads all over the box… I want my money back…

Cat's Best Original
We chose this litter because of our sick cat, previously we used bentonite and then tofu litter. The tofu is really good but with 4 cats it’s just too expensive. With this litter, it costs half as much as the tofu. It clumps pretty well, but you shouldn’t scoop it out straight away because it falls apart—you need to wait for it to set properly. The smell is a bit odd but at least it doesn’t make dust. That was the main thing for us. The 40L bag is enough for 4 cats for a month.

Excellent litter
I've been using this litter for 11 years and I'm happy with it in every way: it clumps really well, can be flushed down the toilet, no dust, natural, and long-lasting. Highly recommended.
