Great, but tracks

This is without doubt the best litter I have used with my cat. It gets rid of smells within minutes and clumps pretty nicely. Sometimes the clumps break apart if they are stuck against the side of the tray, but the pieces are easy enough to fish out with the scoop.The only issue I have is the amount of tracks this leaves, literally everywhere. But, given that it smells great, cuts down on waste and is much nicer to use, it's a flaw I'm more than willing to accept

I'm done with this litter

I don't even know why I bother with this anymore, it tracks absolutely EVERYWHERE and is so dusty. This is my last bag.

If you think your cat's bowels contain a portal to hell, this is for you

About two months after we got her, we realised that the litter we got until then did virtually nothing to get rid of the smell that made us believe our kitten had a portal to hell within her bowels. The smell was extreme and permeated EVERYTHING. Friends recommended Cat's Best, and the change was dramatic. The smell is effectively gone. Even when scooping the litter, it faintly smells of wood chips. It clumps well and is flushable. We can't recommend it enough.

Worth a try without breaking the bank

I recently started looking for an alternative to Worlds Best that has become dusty and unusable. I'm so glad I ignored the negative reviews. I ordered a smaller pack to test whether the cats would like it and whether it did the job. Well, after a couple of days I ordered a bigger pack! Clumps well but I'd recommend taking out the clumps as soon as possible as they tend to fall apart if stuck to the side to the litter tray. Hopefully this one stays almost dust-free and the way it is.

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.

Excellent product

It absorbs pee really well and forms a nice clump. It also does a great job with odours. Excellent product.

No dust at all

I love this litter, and so do my pets. There's hardly any dust, but I've noticed that when I buy the same amount split into two bags, it's sandier and creates more dust.

Everything's fine

After reading the reviews, I went with another brand, but I came back and it turned out the reviews were lying. It clumps nicely, the cats like it, there are no problems with it, it doesn’t create dust, and it doesn’t hurt their paws.

Lower quality

I've been using this litter for 4 years, and it was the best quality-wise. I never even tried to compare the price because it suited my needs perfectly. But the last two bags just aren't the same, it doesn't clump anymore, the litter just spreads everywhere. I'll give it another month, but unfortunately I'll have to give it up. I have 5 cats -> 3 litter boxes, and cleaning has become more tiring and less efficient.

I'm disappointed with the cat litter

Hello, I've been using this cat litter for over 14 years. Since my last order, I'm really disappointed. The clumps are soaked all the way to the bottom. The clumps are way bigger than I've ever seen before. Obviously, a lot more litter is needed now. Has the product been changed or is it a production error with this batch?

Terrible

I've been using it for a long time, but lately it's just getting worse and worse. It creates a lot of dust, and the litter itself falls apart. I won't be buying it again. I'm really disappointed—I'm having the same issue with the food, it crumbles apart. I'm thinking of buying elsewhere. The quality leaves a lot to be desired.

Terrible!

What a terrible cat litter! It's incredibly dusty! My cat comes out of the litter box short of breath and coughing. The whole house is covered in a white haze. Whenever I scoop the box, a cloud of dust hangs in the air. I've tried many types of litter, but this one is by far the worst.

Worsened quality

The granules have changed to being big and sharp, so now my cats don’t like using the litter box filled with this litter anymore. Even when you step on it yourself, it’s really uncomfortable, so imagine how it feels for a cat’s paws. It’s a pity, because it used to be great.

Has gotten very bad

I've been using this litter for almost 10 years, but the last 3 batches have been a disaster. It smells terrible. I even contacted Cats Best to ask why, but they just said they hadn't changed anything. It's a shame they don't take this seriously.

Totally gone downhill

I've been using this cat litter since 2020, basically since I got my cats. It was recommended to me and I was absolutely thrilled with it. But for several weeks or even months now, I've noticed that it doesn't clump well at all, and the worst part for me is that it starts to smell bad really quickly!! I never had this problem with the litter before. It's such a shame because it's really hard to find a new, good litter.

Very practical, my cats like it

It's really practical for cleaning, since you can put the clumped pee straight into the toilet. After a few minutes, the pee dries and forms a ball, making it easy to remove. My two cats use it without any issues.

Change in composition?

I've been using this cat litter for over a year now for my three Maine Coons and I was always super happy with it. The new bag I ordered now is useless. All the clumps from the pee fall apart straight away when I scoop and end up scattered all over the litter box. Really annoying. I'd like to know if the formula has changed or if it's still the same and I just got unlucky with my 40-litre bag.

Disappointment

Years ago, this was good litter, but the problem is it isn’t anymore. The quality has dropped a lot, it doesn’t even clump or anything now. You’ve lost a customer who used to buy this litter for years, but I just can’t put up with it anymore. Not giving it another chance, it’s terrible, honestly don’t buy it. Anything is better than this.
