4604 reviews forCat's Best Original Cat Litter

Over the past year, I’ve tried many types of cat litter, from expensive to cheap. None of them convinced me. I was totally disappointed because my flat always smelled of pee. I didn’t even want to let anyone in anymore. Even my clothes had a sour urine smell. I read a lot of reviews on zooplus.co.uk and decided to go for this litter. I’m thrilled, especially because it binds odours and absorbs liquid so well. The light wood scent is very pleasant, and you don’t need any additional odour neutralisers. My tomcat had no trouble getting used to it.

Very economical litter, but completely unsuitable for me due to the odour nuisance. I have two cats and removed the clumps several times a day. Despite intensive airing, I couldn’t stand it anymore after 10 days and sent it back. Big praise to Zooplus for the fantastic return process.

Binds moisture and odour really well. Unfortunately, it’s a bit dusty.

I spent a long time debating whether to switch the litter. Up until now, we’ve always used Extreme Classic with baby powder scent. Since we have three cats and three litter boxes, we always had to buy three bags of the Classic, which meant lugging around nearly 50 kg—and it’s not exactly cheap either. Yesterday, the time finally came. My tomcat preferred the litter box with the eco-litter. It smells nice, doesn’t create dust, isn’t heavy, and costs significantly less. We’re absolutely thrilled, which is why I’m giving it 5 stars. I’ll definitely keep buying this eco-litter. Pat

After a true odyssey, we are now over the moon. My Maine Coon tomcat loves it – it’s silky soft on his kitten paws, has a gentle natural scent, all promises are kept, it lasts forever, and it simply doesn’t stink! We toss the clumps, which – hooray – don’t stick to the litter box at all, into the toilet after the “pipi” from the tin opener (aka the cat), flush them away, and that’s it. Saves water… No more smelly waste, the little sausages go straight down the drain – oh, how lovely! So incredibly hygienic, I never thought I’d be this excited about cat litter… ;)) The price is super cheap if you know how to calculate, as it practically lasts forever. A clean solution!!!

After seeing so many good to very good reviews, I jumped at the chance when the cat litter was on offer. But now that I've tried it myself, I'm not really impressed. In my opinion, the litter smells nice and doesn't produce any dust at all. My cats accepted it straight away too. It actually forms nice clumps, but they often fall apart when cleaning up. However, my two cats no longer bother to cover up their business with this litter, so the bathroom ends up smelling, of course. The texture of the litter is also strange. Even with a very large-holed scoop, I always have to sift it because it doesn't fall through on its own.

The litter doesn’t smell, it’s easy to dispose of. Unfortunately, my tomcat spreads the litter around the flat. But we’ll continue using it. It doesn’t create much dust either. Oh, and the price is right too.

I spent a long time thinking about which litter to choose. Based on the many great reviews, I decided to try this one and was thrilled from the start. It’s absolutely brilliant that you can dispose of the litter via the toilet. Plus, it doesn’t smell at all, the waste clumps perfectly, and you can easily remove it from the tray without it falling apart. I’m completely impressed!

When it comes to disposal, I handle it as follows to ensure it's environmentally friendly: I dispose of the cat's droppings in the toilet. The clumps with cat urine go into the regular waste bin as they really don't smell. The "used" base filling is then disposed of in the organic waste bin after changing it. This way, you don't use too much water for flushing the toilet, as the manufacturer recommends flushing each clump individually, which isn't really practical in terms of water consumption and avoids any potential issues with blockages.

As a newcomer to cats, you have no experience with cat litter, so you buy what’s recommended to you. I tried out several types that were supposedly great at odour control and was really disappointed. The conventional clumping litters are heavy, not particularly effective at binding odours, and not very convenient when it comes to disposal. Then, thanks to a test in the magazine Öko Test, I came across Cat's Best Öko Plus cat litter and thought to myself while reading: this sounds good – give it a try, it can hardly get any worse. From the very beginning, I was thrilled. The subtle woody scent – it smells like a carpenter’s workshop – like sawdust. That was the first pleasant surprise. Next came the question of how the cat would take to it. No issues here either. After my semi-long-haired cat used it, I could only report positive things: the litter clumps very well, binds odours absolutely brilliantly (I have a very sensitive nose), produces hardly any dust, and is excellent in terms of disposal. My cat and I can wholeheartedly recommend this litter – provided you like the smell of freshly sawn wood.

I've tried quite a few and I find it annoying with the others to always have to fish out the clumps using a rubbish bag. This one is simple because you can just flush the clumps individually down the household toilet. I find that practical, and it doesn’t stink like the others. It doesn’t smell at all—just faintly of wood. And since it’s all-natural, my little 5-month-old kitten quickly understood that he could also do his business outside. I think it’s because we have lots of fir trees in the garden, and it smells like wood to him. Sometimes it gets a bit dusty, and my little one ends up with a slightly white face. But it’s not a big deal. It’s also great for kittens because not much can happen if they accidentally swallow a grain—it dissolves. I can recommend it to everyone.

The manufacturer explicitly states on their homepage that larger quantities should NOT be flushed down the toilet all at once; each clump should be flushed individually – this supposedly super-eco litter quickly turns into a not-so-eco-friendly water waster in multi-cat households!!! -> Quote: "Disposal via household toilet only in reasonable quantities! CAT'S BEST users frequently ask us about disposing of waste clumps via the household toilet. Unfortunately, some users tend to go overboard here – so please note: Flushing via the household toilet is intended exclusively for individual waste clumps! Place a single clump in the toilet and let it soak briefly. Then flush vigorously – the water must be able to sufficiently surround and saturate the clump particles. Only after that should you add the next clump to the toilet. It’s even easier if you crush the clumps slightly beforehand using the litter scoop. Under no circumstances should multiple waste clumps be flushed down the toilet at the same time. The water needs to saturate, swell, and dissolve the litter particles – then everything works simply, cleanly, and hygienically. For disposal and emptying of a used litter tray, the household toilet is, of course, not suitable. Depending on local disposal regulations, please use the organic waste bin, compost, or residual waste bin!"

I used to always use the Extreme Classic for about 2 years. My litter box is in the bathroom, and the tiny granules were just really annoying. They got stuck in every corner and would stick everywhere. I also wasn’t completely satisfied with the odour control – it was OK at first or right after a thorough cleaning, but then... greasy and smelly. But this litter has really convinced me: odour control is VERY GOOD, not greasy, the base litter stays fresh, it’s easy to dispose of, and it doesn’t stick. Thank you for this fantastic litter!

Unfortunately, our tomcat spreads the litter all over the house. The litter sticks to his fur and paws. We're switching back to our clumping litter, which does create dust but at least only causes mess in a limited area.

It's a very good cat litter, clumps well, and the clumps are very easy to remove, plus it doesn't smell. It's also very economical, and you can use the same filling for almost 4 weeks even with 2 cats. I have two 3-month-old kittens, and they love it—if you can say that :-)

The litter doesn’t produce dust, is very economical, and still smells fresh like wood even after weeks. Unfortunately, the clumps break apart again when they dry, which means the litter box doesn’t get properly clean. My indoor cats have now started refusing it. As bedding for my rabbits, however, it’s absolutely brilliant! =)

Very good cat litter. We've tried several, and this one clumps well. Once you've removed the clumps, there's no smell at all.

I've been using this cat litter for a good 10 years now, and I'm still super happy with it. What might be a bit annoying is that it gets quite dusty if you don't completely change it for a while. I can only recommend it.

It’s really a good cat litter, especially because you can dispose of it via the toilet and it’s very lightweight. However, with small kittens, the litter gets scattered all over the room, which isn’t ideal. Otherwise, highly recommended.

Really highly recommended, especially the medium size, which I have to carry up to the 3rd floor without a lift, for 7 !!! cats. But since it’s so economical, I only have to deal with the lugging every 2-3 months, even though 5 litter boxes are cleaned twice a day.
