AI generated summary based on reviews added by customers
Customers appreciate this cat litter for its effective clumping and odour control, making it a long-time favorite for many. However, recent changes in formula have led to dissatisfaction, with complaints about reduced clumping, increased dust, and tracking issues. Despite these negatives, some users still find it economical and environmentally friendly, praising its lightweight nature and absorbency. Overall, while it has its drawbacks, the litter remains a popular choice for its original benefits.

What's going on here?
What happened to the good litter??? For the past few weeks, it hasn’t clumped like it used to and has started to smell. Thought I’d check the comments. And thank you, I’m actually not the only one. How much do you have to change the formula to make it this bad? I’ll give it one more try, and then that’s it. Absolutely unacceptable. Really a shame.

Quality has deteriorated significantly
No longer what it used to be. A lot of money for little to no quality.

Economical
Been using this for eight years.
First year one 40l pack lasted the whole year. Removing deposits daily.
Now I have 2 cats and 4 litter trays. 40l’s lasts approximately 8 months.
Scooping daily.
It does track but my maincoon does have very hairy paws😻

Really good
We only used it for a short time but so far my experience is it clumps really well. The kittens started on some cheap clay litter coming from their breeder and that one didnt clump pee at all almost, kept falling apart which was frustrating and disgusting. This seem to clump the pee really well and hides their poo too so I am happy. Plus it is better for nature than clay litter.
Only negative it carries out of the litter box more but that I am ok with. I will look at littermats.

Ruby's favourite
Our cat loves this litter. A good price, and easy to keep clean.

The texture of the crumble has unfortunately deteriorated.
After years of being super satisfied with Cats Best cat litter and not letting anything else into my home, I’ve recently been extremely disappointed. The litter is slightly darker than before and no longer absorbs urine properly. It doesn’t form solid clumps like it used to; instead, everything crumbles on the scoop, and you have to clean the litter box far more often because of it. If this texture continues to be produced in this form, I won’t be buying this cat litter again.

Quality has deteriorated significantly
The composition and quality have deteriorated drastically over the past few months. While it used to form good clumps and was fairly fine, it’s now extremely coarse. The litter breaks apart into small pieces during cleaning, making it difficult to clean properly. As a result, the smell constantly lingers in the litter box, and the litter has to be completely replaced very frequently.
If it continues to be this bad, I’ll have to switch to something else.

Super litter that clumps very well…
You just need to let it clump for a few minutes, and then it can be scooped out quite easily!
Besides, it hardly creates any dust and smells wonderfully of wood, like in the timber section of a DIY store… :-)
Odour control is excellent.
We’re sticking with it!!!

A lot of money...
...for significantly declining quality. The fact that the litter has changed colour is no problem, but the fact that its quality has dropped so much is unacceptable for the price. The clumps just fall apart, and there's an immense amount of dust and powder in the toilet...?! This litter won't be the one anymore!!!

Very economical
This litter not only smells natural but is also super economical. I don’t need extra bags for disposal anymore; I just flush it straight down the toilet.

Quality isn't what it used to be.
The quality has deteriorated enormously.
The litter hardly clumps anymore; it just crumbles. This becomes noticeable when scooping it out of the litter boxes. Additionally, it now gets spread all over the flat. I fear that after many years, I’ll have to start looking for an alternative, as the litter can no longer be used.

Pleasant bedding
Since my cats are pretty easy-going when it comes to litter or food, they quickly and easily accepted this one. It clumps well enough, although the clumps sometimes break apart, so you might need to spend an extra minute cleaning. We find the litter pleasant to use, and it doesn’t cause any coughing fits. Its odour control is sufficient, keeping the flat smelling neutral and not like cat urine.
We’re absolutely satisfied with this litter 👍 With proper cleaning, it lasts longer in the litter box.

it doesn't clump anylonger and it smells. It's changed
I dont know what happened to this but in the last year or so this does not clump anylonger. This was its main unique selling proposition and now its gone. Its just basic litter that starts to smell and you need to throw a lot when cleaning. it's not economical anylonger. They changed somth... its not worth the high price tag anylo her

Super product
I’ve been a customer for so many years now, and I have to say I’ve never been disappointed. Yes, it’s true, the second-to-last pack of cat litter was quite dusty and the granules were very small. But the last delivery was back to the usual standard!! I wouldn’t want any other, and neither would my little darling!! The litter clumps very well and controls odour excellently. The "daily business" can be disposed of in the toilet, and it’s environmentally friendly!!

Stinky New Kitten Nightmare Averted
We adopted two new beautiful kittens. My experience with cats was my parents and I remember the stinky litter box (and this scared me).
Following a bit of research, I tried this cat litter. Now, I won’t say it’s a pleasure to use (that would be weird) but this cat litter is amazing. Two months (daily scooping and three full changes in) no stink! Buy it!

Good cat litter but poor packaging
After trying different litters because of a fussy cat and I was fed up of all the dust from their previous cat litter. Cats best have been the winners for us for a few reasons: no dust at all, smells of pine wood, clumps a little but we are used to non clumping so we actually prefer the clumping. We also tried the comfort one and compared with the original which the original cats best holds the smell really well. The only downside is the packaging. Unfortunately our 40l bag had a hole in it.

Cats seem to like it
We usually use clay non clumping litter, but our cats were finding it too dusty and harsh in their paws. I wanted a litter that is gentle on paws, very little or no dust because of allergies and holds in the smell. Out of all the different kinds of litter Cats best came out… best! No matter what litter we get there’s always going to be tracking especially when you have 2 of 3 cats who like to wipe their paws after toileting. With litter mats under the box it reduces it. Definitely buying again.
