Never again...
Based on the many positive reviews, I (luckily) only ordered 10 litres... As soon as I filled it into the cat litter box, I started coughing heavily because it was extremely dusty – I really didn’t expect that.
Ten minutes later, of course, my cat was on the fresh litter box... and I have to say: the clumping isn’t nearly as good as before (cheap clumping litter from Budni...) and: litter scattered all over the flat... honestly, I’m not up for that!!

Not suitable for long-haired cats
Advantages:
- Good odour control, as long as you fill the cat litter tray high enough
- Can be disposed of via the toilet (though we never actually did this)
- Relatively economical
- Eco-friendly
Disadvantages:
- Our Maine Coons spread the litter all over the house across three floors, despite having a mat in front of the litter tray (it stuck to their long fur, the litter is too lightweight)
- Relatively expensive
Conclusion: We've switched back to another product because we didn't want to vacuum several times a day. Therefore, only 3 stars.

Cat's Best Öko Plus
This cat litter is simply brilliant. It clumps wonderfully and doesn’t smell. Of course, you have to clean up straight after the "business". But that’s easy enough—straight into the loo.
My two cats and I are very happy with it. What more could you want??

Cats Best
We’re quite picky when it comes to cat litter for our Lilly (just like Lilly herself), and we’ve been searching for good cat litter for ages, trying out loads of different ones. Cats Best Öko isn’t just eco-friendly but also does a great job of binding everything in the litter tray. Plus, it smells really nice. So many positive reviews can’t be wrong. Thanks, Zooplus!

Good, but ...
Plus points of Cats Best Oko Plus:
1. My 2 oriental type cats prefer this litter.
2. Natural product, non toxic, safe for my cats.
3. Masks odours very well and has a pleasant, natural woody/pine smell.
4. Clumps well and is easy to deal with.
5. Environmentally friendly and biodegradeable.
Minus points of Cats Best Oko Plus:
1. Tracks a lot. Even though I have a large mat by the tray, I am sweeping up bits of cat litter two or three times a day and still finds bits on the carpet and sometimes even upstairs.
2. It is a bit dusty.
3. I find that it does not last anywhere near as long as the manufacturer states. I use a jumbo sized litter tray, which gives my cats room to turn around. It takes 5 litres of litter each time and I change the tray completely every 5 to 7 days. I have read other reviews which advise that you can save the litter after removing the clumps and put it back in the tray after cleaning, but personally, I don't and wouldn't do this. A 10 litre bag lasts my 2 cats a maximum of 2 weeks.
I have recently tried the Cats Best Gold litter, which is in pellet form rather than chips, designed not to cling to the fur of long haired cats. I would also give that 4 stars. It does not track anywhere near as much as the original and is not so dusty and possibly lasts a day or so longer between complete changes as it does not break down so quickly, however, my cats don't seem to like the feel of it under their paws quite so much and we have much (noisy) raking in the litter tray and it is a little more expensive than the ordinary Cats Best Oko Plus.
Overall, both are good, but have their advantages and drawbacks. You pays your money and you makes your choice.

I think no litter is perfect...
but this one comes very close. Yes the tracking/sticking to the paws and bum is quite bad (specially with my long hair cat which jumps over two mats when leaving the box, grrrrr!!!) but not unmanageable; it controls smells very well - changing my cat's diet, albeit due to renal problems, made a huge difference also - I can just scoop clumps (not hard as rock, but not mushy) and flush down the toilet; and to me the biggest advantage is that the dust is indeed minimal and it does not trigger my asthma as ALL of the clay and most of the paper based litters do.

Thank you.......
For this fantastic cat litter and the fact that this product is now also available in the 20-litre pack.
After a successful trial by my cat Kitty, only this litter goes into the cat toilet now, and this medium-sized pack is easier for me as the owner to carry and more affordable than having to order 2 x 10-litre packs all the time.
So, thank you for this product, excellent in every respect... a bit of dust is something you can easily put up with.

Great bedding
Super delivery!! I have two cats and have tried many types of cat litter, but this one is truly amazing. It doesn’t smell at all and is really easy to dispose of.

Mixed
For our two cats, this is their usual litter, which they've been used to since their kitten days.
We, as their "tin openers," found it very convenient since disposal takes place via the toilet.
The odour control is also fine.
The downside is: our furry friends spread the litter all over the flat. So vacuuming has become our new hobby :-)
We're now trying a mix with Cats Best Nature Gold...

Super clumpy
I can only give positive feedback because it clumps really well and genuinely doesn’t smell. The only downside, in my opinion, is that the litter gets spread all over the flat, which didn’t happen with my previous litter. But you have to vacuum every day anyway when you have pets. I would recommend it to everyone.

Satisfied for 1.5 years
With this litter, my cats can not only use a clean toilet but also scratch and scrape to their heart's content. Even for the "velvet paws," it's more pleasant to use this litter. The litter is much more economical, binds odours well, and clumps nicely for both small and large business :-) I remove these clumps daily, add a bit of fresh litter, and then give it a good stir. This way, the litter tray only needs a full clean about once every four weeks.

TOP-TOP-TOP
I relied on the reviews and, after trying out various litters for a long time, ordered Cat's Best Öko Plus cat litter. I’m thrilled—there’s nothing better. I’ll never switch again.
Thank you, Zooplus, for the super-fast deliveries and the TOP price.

Finally.....
...we've finally found the right litter.
Until now, I was using an ultra-fine clumping litter, but after just two days, I could no longer enter the cat room—it took my breath away, it smelled so awful. On top of that, the rubbish collection here only comes once a month, which is a disaster when you have multiple cats. Mountains of waste piled up in the wooden shed until I rented a 1,100-litre rubbish bin and had to dispose of the litter at great expense.
As a test, I filled two large boxes with CBÖP and placed two boxes with the "old" clumping litter next to them. My cats only went into the CBÖP.
The room no longer stinks, it's easier to clean, great for disposal, and I have a compost bin in the garden.
My cats love this litter.
When I calculate it, it's cheaper than even the best clumping litter.
NEVER AGAIN ANYTHING ELSE.

The best litter so far!
Super litter – practical disposal – and the cats are happy to use it too – nothing more to say! Top-notch!

If you can still smell anything here, you're doing something wrong.
I've been using this litter for 6 years now, and I can only say: if anyone manages to still have an odour problem with it, let me know—I’d love to hear how that’s even possible. Either it’s due to unneutered tomcats (and that’s entirely your own fault, so you deserve the smell), or you’re simply not using enough of it. The litter smells like wood, and even after four weeks here, it still does. Nothing else will ever come into our multi-cat household except this fairly natural alternative to the useless perfumed stuff or the often dusty bentonite.

Unfortunately, my pesky critters don't go for it!
I always used this litter with my first cats and was completely satisfied. The wood scent was pleasant, the litter clumped quite well, and, well, EVERY litter gets tracked around the house to some extent. And we have to vacuum more often because of the pets anyway, don’t we?
Unfortunately, my two current tomcats refuse to use it. They simply poop NEXT to the litter box; apparently, they prefer to rest their paws in the soft Extreme Classic that smells like baby powder. Degenerate creatures! So off it goes to the animal shelter. Such a shame!

Stay away! Doesn't deliver what it promises.
I'll keep this review short and to the point:
The litter is not odour-binding as described, but instead starts to emit a peculiar and disgusting smell after about a week.
It’s not economical at all, as the litter granules are very coarse, causing the clumps to become unnecessarily large.
Additionally, my two tomcats dug unusually much and spread the litter across half the flat. That might not necessarily be due to the litter itself, but the first two points are facts.

Super
Super cat litter, no smell and the clumps go straight into the toilet. The rest just gets thrown onto the compost heap. My two tomcats, Ratz and Mickie, get along with it really well.
The handling with Zooplus, as always, was excellent.

Unfortunately, bought for nothing.
Based on the overwhelmingly positive reviews, I went ahead and ordered a 40-litre bag straight away.
Our cat, who is usually not picky at all, just put one paw in and that was it. I thought she would eventually use it when she really needed to, but that wasn’t the case. Over 24 hours later, she was already running around completely apathetic, and that was enough for me. I poured the rest of the previous litter into the litter box, and as I was pouring it in, she immediately went to use it.
Because of this, I unfortunately cannot give a good review at all. And as for the claim that it doesn’t create dust, I absolutely cannot confirm that—it produced more dust than anything else I’ve used so far :-(
Unfortunately, I absolutely cannot recommend it.
Best regards,
Jeanette

Not odour-absorbing
I've been using this litter for a week now. At first, I was thrilled with the pleasant smell, but that was before my two little stinkers got to it. The litter doesn't bind odours at all. I've tried many different types before, but never has the cat litter box smelled this bad.
The clumping is quite OK, but small bits always break off, and you have to painstakingly fish them out.
I bought this litter because it's really convenient to dispose of everything straight down the toilet.
But that's the only advantage!
