My bunny loves it ...
I’d like to share my review of the litter today. My cat didn’t accept it back then; she loves the feeling of sand on her paws :-) … So, I had a lot left over from the big bag. I tried it out for my rabbits and I have to say, it’s a really great solution. The clumps are removed daily, and once a week the cage is thoroughly cleaned. None of our visitors have ever noticed that we have a rabbit at home. The 40-litre bag lasts us for a month (an indoor cage in the flat with one rabbit living in it / with two rabbits, the big bag lasted an average of three weeks). … I’m really happy with the product for small animals and have been ordering it diligently for 8 months now :-)

Absorbent and flushable but oh! that tracking
I have tried most types of litter since my elderly cat became enforcably housebound; this one is good on absorbency, not bad at odour control, clumps well and - best of all - is flushable but.....due to its light weight it is the worst for tracking (even with the use of a special mat in front of the tray) that I have come across and can be found all over the house, necessitating vacuuming several times per day.

Two hearts beating in my chest
I used this litter for quite a long time because I loved the idea of plant fibres and 100% biodegradability. It also has a pleasant, slightly woody smell, even after being used by the cats. The clumping behaviour is great too, and it lasts a long time.
The only downside, which has now really made me want to try a new one, is the "sand effect". Unfortunately, it gets tracked all over the flat. I constantly have to vacuum. And after a while, the fibres crumble, creating a lot of fine dust in the litter box, which spreads even more easily.

Wonderful litter
Cat's Best Öko Plus Cat Litter
THE BEST WE'VE EVER HAD.
With our two indoor cats, switching to this litter has made a noticeable difference in terms of scent and weight.
We used to always buy a finely scented, expensive clumping litter for the cat toilets.
Unfortunately, our rubbish bin is now weighed, so we switched to this new cat litter.
This one can go "filled" into the green bin.
It’s wonderfully light with cat pee, smells pleasant, and doesn’t let any urine or "big" odours through.
Highly recommended!

It does absorb a lot, but... the whole flat is covered in litter!
I agree with the opinions regarding the absorbency of the litter: it lasts a very long time, but now I have to sweep three times a day and vacuum at least every other day because my "tigers" spread the little pellets everywhere—it’s enough to drive you mad. I will never buy it again. I’d rather spend more money and not have my flat so "crumbled up." And I even have a litter mat and a bath mat in front of the litter box in the bathroom. Unbelievable, this litter spreading.

Finally found the perfect cat litter
I always thought I had the best cat litter, no question about it. But no, there really is something better, and that’s Cat’s Best ÖkoPlus cat litter. It smells like a forest and wood. No more annoying smell of cat pee, and the litter box only needs to be changed every 4-6 weeks (currently no outdoor access) without any odour. My new cat is also very happy with it, took to it immediately, and has practically turned his business into a ritual.
And the absolute best part: I simply dispose of the clumps in the toilet. The pee clumps dissolve into tiny particles of the biodegradable litter when they come into contact with water. It’s truly perfect! And for those who have a compost bin or heap, you can just toss it in there... it’s 100% plant-based, biodegradable, and nitrogen-rich, making it great for fertilising! ;-)
I can only recommend this litter, and when I read complaints about it spreading outside the litter box...? Well, I bought a special mat with unique fibres for a few euros, which catches the little crumbs, and I just shake them back into the box when cleaning. Besides, every other litter also leaves crumbs outside a closed box with a plexiglass door in my experience, and possibly dust too, whereas Cat’s Best ÖkoPlus cat litter doesn’t produce any dust at all! I’ve had thirty years of experience with cats.

Simply brilliant!
I've been using this litter for a few weeks now and I'm absolutely thrilled!
Both cats use it without any fuss, there's hardly any smell, and it's super economical!!!!
The best part is you can dispose of it in the toilet without any worries – simply brilliant :)

Tomcat with kidney problems
My tomcat is now 18 years old, has kidney problems, which means he pees an awful lot. We've tried out loads of different types of litter, but in my opinion, this litter is the best on the market. Super absorbent and hardly any odour at all. Highly recommended!

Cats Best
I've struggled through countless types of litter... but this is the absolute winner among cat litters. Excellent clumping, no smell, and incredibly long-lasting. If you do the maths... a 40-litre bag lasted me 4 months. Truly unbelievable. Compare that to buying a 5-litre bag at Schlecker for, say, €4 every week... do the maths for four months! I've even tried Catsan... awful... dust, dust, dust, and smell. I can wholeheartedly recommend this one.

The best cat litter ever!!!
My 3 cats love it!
I’ve tried many litters. This is the best cat litter ever!! Our place doesn’t smell like cats! It clumps perfectly.
My cats are a bit fussy and demand that I clean the litter box immediately... OK! But the 40-litre bag lasts a whole month for three cats!!
Every cat litter tracks a bit, but this one doesn’t create dust and is perfect for allergy sufferers!!
And it’s definitely asbestos-free, which I doubt about some other brands. Disposal via the toilet is great too; at first, I was hesitant... But it works!!!
Plus, you don’t have to carry it, as it gets delivered... We’re definitely sticking with Cat’s Best Öko Plus!!

Cat litter Cat's Best Öko Plus
Since I started using this cat litter, I’ve had no more problems with odour or disposal. It’s simply brilliant. My two cats got used to it straight away.
I’m very happy and pleased with it. Fantastic!

Once... but never again :O(
My furry friends don’t like it at all... When one cat used the toilet, the second one hesitated to go on it hmm... I have to say the smell stinks up the whole house. As for the clumping, it’s okay. That’s about it. It’s not what it promises—such a shame.

My cats and I love it!!!
I really can't understand the bad ratings. Maybe the cat litter has improved over the years?! It was recommended to me by friends and the animal shelter, and I have to admit, I was really sceptical. But now???
I think it smells acceptable. Like wood and cellulose remnants, really. Does cat litter need to smell like roses???
It absorbs urine immediately, which eliminates the hardened layer at the bottom of the litter box if, like me, you're working and can't clean the box straight away.
I also love that the litter can be disposed of via my own toilet.
I scoop up the clumps, wait a moment, flush thoroughly, and that's it.
At first, I was worried about blockages and so on, but by now, the practice has convinced me.
For me: the best cat litter ever. I've tested many and I'm sticking with this one!

Brilliant
Super suction power – binds odours – easy to sift – long-lasting. The cats love it. Recommended by a breeder and no need to switch to anything else.

The cat loves the new litter. And so do we :D
We initially bought just a small bag to try it out, and our Luna loved the new litter straight away. The litter hardly produces any dust compared to the bentonite or chalky stuff, stays dry for an incredibly long time, and doesn’t smell at all.
Luna is now in her third week with just one litter box filling, and the litter is still nice and dry and almost odourless. In my opinion, it’s truly the best litter I’ve ever had. From today onwards, it’s only the big 40-litre bag ;) ;) :D :D A huge compliment to CATS BEST, as this litter is honestly an amazing product.

Whoever wants to vacuum three times a day...
This litter is a nightmare. After every trip to the loo, my entire flat is practically covered in it – these super-light litter crumbs fly everywhere when the cat scratches and stick to absolutely everything. This litter definitely creates at least three times as much mess in the flat as regular clumping litter. If you want to live in a halfway decent home, steer clear of this stuff!

Absolutely top-notch product
I stumbled upon the review page by chance.
After reading through some reviews, I’d like to address a few negative ones (23rd-25th February 2011) as examples here.
We’ve had two British Shorthair siblings for three years now. Since they’re indoor cats, we were forced to find a suitable cat litter that meets both our needs and those of the cats.
We really tried all kinds and brands of litter. We quickly stopped using cheap products because they’re not worth the little money they cost. For the past two years, we’ve exclusively been using Cats Best and are completely satisfied. Some advantages:
- Extremely economical and durable
- Natural smell (like freshly cut wood or sawdust)
- No perfumed rubbish like with some other types of litter
- Strong clumping ability
- Can be disposed of in the toilet without any issues
- Fully compostable
- Very lightweight material.
Disadvantages:
Due to the lighter weight, more (clean) litter is carried out of the litter box compared to clay granules.
However, this is negligible compared to the advantages.
I’ll skip a more detailed description of the advantages here—see other positive reviews!
Now to the negative reviews:
All of them are incomprehensible!
- "Unpleasant smell" - If our cats leave a fresh pile in the box, of course it smells. Compared to other litters, it’s neither more nor less! Our cats bury their piles, so there’s no smell. (We have a box with a hood and flap.)
- "Sticks to fur and eyes" - ??? not understandable.
- "Leaves sticky marks on the floor" - true! If the box isn’t cleaned for a longer period (around 3 days), the clumped lumps lose their absorbency (normal). If a cat then pees on it and steps in it, they’ll get wet paws, which can leave paw prints on the floor. It looks funny, but it’s not ideal.
However, since cats naturally have high standards for their litter box, this usually doesn’t happen because the piles are removed daily.
We can really only recommend this litter; the relatively high price is easily offset by its long durability.

very low odour
I switched the cat litter from Biocats to this one. One star deducted because the litter gets scattered all over the flat. No more odours and less waste, which was very important to me.
The 40L bag is too heavy for me to lift, so I order a smaller bag instead.
The paper bag could be sturdier.
So, me and my five tigers are sticking with it!

Absolutely top-notch!
I’ve tested several types of cat litter, and this one does exactly what it promises: it binds well and doesn’t release any (!) odours. It’s dust-free, and the cats like it. It’s easy to clean and not made in China, unlike many other cat litter products.

Super
After being recommended by the animal shelter to use this litter, I decided to give it a try.
So far, I’m very satisfied—my tomcat likes using it. I only notice a bit of dust when cleaning it. It doesn’t smell like cat urine or faeces. I’m completely happy with it.
