The holy grail of cat litter

I have been trying numerous different cat litters over the past few years and arrived at this one when the shops ran out of the last one I tolerated buying. I cannot believe the difference, not only is this flushable and biodegradable, it does not smell! Usually after a couple of days of changing the tray gets smelly but with this I'm already over a week in and not a hint of a whiff! Tiberius is likes it and I love it. We have found a winner!

Mess around

i am trying to find the best clumping cat litter. This one is fine but every time the cats walk out from the cat litter they take out a lot of it on their feet. Shame I cannot post the picture. Not good to keeptge house clean.

DOES THE JOB

Out of necessity, can't go to shops or get a delivery, have had to find an alternative to my usual supermarket litter. Unlike my normal one, this is a clumping litter which I am okay with. It lasts well, it doesn't smell and it does the job very well. However, I can't abide the tracking of the small grains (very similar in looks and size as porridge oats). It tracks all over the house and it looks constantly as if I haven't swept or vacuumed for days, which I now have to do repeatedly.

Excellent

This article was recommended by friends . My 1st impression was it wasn't good but after used I really don't want to have other. I like this , but the best thing is my cat is very happy . Can be thrown in toilet bowl .

Best litter out there

I've been using this for over a decade now a d it's kept its quality. It clumps fantastically but if left in the tray too long the clumps dry out a bit and crumbles. I top up following the instructions and it lasts weeks with happy cats. It's a light colour and shows up on dark carpets but a quick hoover and it's gone like all others. I flush the poops and compost the pee because it's make from biodegradable materials. The extra scooping extends the time in the tray. Definitely recommended

The best I've ever had

I know some people complained that this litter is not as good as it used to be but in my opinion is perfect! I will buy it again for sure

Good value for money

Can’t complain at the price as I have an indoor cat and struggle to find a litter that suits us both! Non offensive smell, clumps and long lasting

The worst cat litter ever!!!

Do not buy this cat little unless you are happy with having to litrally scrap it of the bottom of the tray when it come to changing it, even with that and socking it didnt remove it completely have had to buy a new tray, in a nut shell it is over priced sawdust!!!!

The best cat litter you can buy

I just bought 2 of this litter 2 weeks ago. I cannot tell how much I love it. We have 2 cats and seriously they can live a big smelly mess. Using this litter we cannot smell that much of it and also we can just throw the dirt straight into the toilet without blocking the pipes. We bought one of those cat litter bins previously but it didn't help against the smell. You have to clean straight away otherwise it will smell like hell. This litter is megical.

DO NOT BUY

I would give it zero stars if i could! I hardly write reviews but thought i had better warn others as this is by far the worst litter i have ever bought - it gets stuck and the cat trampled it all round the house. Bits of it got everywhere....this has never happened before. For the price i would have expected something far superior. It was fairly absorbent - thats the only positive i can muster.

Cats Best Original

This is the best cat litter that I've ever used. Clumps beautifully. If I have a complaint about it, it's that my girls scatter it and walk it everywhere, but it vacuums up easily.

The best cat litter I have used

I have tried lots of other cat litters.. I have used Tigerino I don’t rate that with 3 indoor adult cats. I used catsan for a while I liked that. But then I tired this after reading the reviews Iv used this for months I like it because as soon as they have gone to the toilet it in the litter it clumps together and then it’s easy to scoop out and just flush down the toilet. It’s very light weight. It does come out a bit on the feet but easy to brush up

Excellent product

Great value, 40l lasts me 3 months with 1 cat. No odours whatsoever using this cat litter. It's flushable, which is super handy as our hefty covered tray is upstairs at the back of the house, so means I don't have to lug it out to the compost waste every day. No plumbing problems in 6 months of use either.

Tried everything & this is truly the best

I have 5 cats, so there's plenty of testing been done on the cat litter conundrum. I've tried pretty much all of them, but this one is paws above the rest. Much cheaper on here than Amazon, the largest bag lasts a month! My cats seem to favour this on their paws than the other best litter & it really locks in odours & doesn't have one itself. Also very important to me it's eco friendly. Clumps fantastically well, lasts forever & is worth every single penny. It does track but what doesn't?

NOT CLUMPING - Don't waste your money. Try something else if you want clumping litter.

If you're reading this, then you are in the position I was a week ago. Unsure - but hoping the reviews might give you some insight into whether this would be a good purchase or not? I saw mixed reviews. However, I saw a running theme stating this product does not clump. It's not working, it's a waste of money. ALL of these reviews are correct! This product is waste of money. It does not clump and breaks into pieces when you try to scoop it out. Meaning you get tiny 'dirty' bits everywhere.

As happy as you can be about cat litter!

Item came packaged securely and very quickly. Ordered on a Sat eve and received it Mon! Also Cheaper than Amazon. About the litter itself, it works for me and my cat Blitzen. Her tray is in my living room and I remove her "gifts" every morning. Her tray was fully changed on the 27th Dec and I only started smelling that ammonia smell on Saturday 20th Jan - that's a solid 3 weeks which is good enough for me.If I had more space in my flat I could push it to 4/5 weeks for sure.

Ideal litter, can't fault it.

I love that this is biodegradable and much easier to deal with for our 2 cats. We sift out the dirty litter about twice daily, and simply flush or bin it. The rest stays clean and doesn't require changing for 2 or so weeks. I've found the best results if you leave the liquid to clump and dry out for a little while, rather than trying to remove it immediately. It tracks a little, but you can always put the litter tray in a shallow box so that it is contained.

not clumping anymore

used to be a great product however the last purchase was such a disappointment as it was not clumping at all! Other than that it absorbs the odour quite well and you can flush it down the toilet.

My best wrong order

I was going to get another litter but somehow this arrived at my door.. ....confusion turned to utter delight. My cats simply love this......lasts longer than the crystals.

Tracks everywhere

I have used this litter for a few months now. I loved it at first as it was the first clumping cat litter I used. No dust or smell and clumps easily. Lasts ages too but the tracking omg is the worst. With 2 ragdolls with long hair it gets stuck to their fur and ends up EVERYWHERE. Now on the lookout for a new clumping cat litter.

Perfect for us

It clumps well and doesn’t create much dust. If you clean the litter box regularly, it doesn’t smell. Some gets carried out on their paws, but with daily sweeping around the toilet, it’s not a problem. Our cats don’t like scented litter, so this is perfect for them.

I always buy it. Good price.

It's just a shame that zooplus packs it in a big box. It would easily fit in a slightly smaller one if the top packaging was bent. And it makes a difference to me, because I prefer to collect my deliveries from the parcel locker.

It's not the same anymore

I’ve seen that other people have had the same experience as me. I bought it for two years, it was really excellent. For months now, it’s not the same anymore. It DOESN’T CLUMP anymore. As for the smell, unfortunately I’ll have to try again because I bought a similar one, but the bad odour isn’t neutralised.

Lately, it gives off dust

I've always used this litter and been really happy with it, but lately it's been giving off loads of dust. Even when I scoop it, I end up coughing from all the dust—imagine what it's like for the cats. I'm thinking about switching to a different one.

Brilliant

I've been using this litter for a few months now and honestly I don't regret it at all, it's really great. Plus, with a big bag I can fill five litter trays and still have some left over, so it's really good when you have several cats.

Dusty

The sand is very dusty, which is a shame because it goes a long way and clumps well.

Almost dust-free but clumping is mediocre

I previously used cat litter from Lidl and wanted a low-dust option. I'm very happy with this cat litter because it's quite low in dust and absorbs odours well. However, I'm unsure about the quality of its clumping. It does form clumps, but the pee clumps break apart when I try to clean the litter box. The pee stays fairly wet, which is annoying because it leaves small bits of litter behind that already contain pee. As a result, the litter needs to be replaced more often.

Cat litter

The litter is fantastic, really efficient, clumps instantly, doesn’t get all sticky, and the bottom of the tray stays clean. I’ll only be ordering this one from now on.

We’ve been using this cat litter for years. Now it doesn’t clump like it should anymore and the litter smells worse.

The best

Our favourite: it lasts a long time, doesn’t leave dust everywhere (like the stone one), clumps well... Negatives: it sticks quite a bit—leaves marks and it’s a bit pricey.

Very dissatisfied, used to be better, doesn't clump properly.

The first ones we bought directly at Fressnapf were of higher quality.

Very good cat litter

Great cat litter, the cats are happy, it clumps nicely and smells like wood. The pieces used to be a bit bigger, so now they spread it around the flat more, but it's still good and much better than the original bentonite one.

Excellent!

I've been using this litter since 2011 and it allows me to avoid bad smells in the house because I can flush it down the toilet. It's odourless so it doesn't bother me, and it doesn't contain any toxic substances for my pets. Finally, it's clumping and absorbent.
