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.

Doesn't lump and attaches to the cat's paws making a lot of mess
Unfortunately the litter doesn't form lumps so it is impossible to clean the litter tray and the cat somehow spreads it all over the floor. I am very disappointed and will come back to using Benek which I and my cat love.

More crumbs than clumping litter
This is the worst clumping litter of this type I've ever had. After a week, I had to completely replace the litter because the clumps fell apart like soggy bread when scooping them out.
I'm now going back to the slightly more expensive alternative to this brand.

Leak
The litter came out before I open the delivery box. The litter pack got scratched in the middle, potentially by other the wet food boxes in the package. Because it’s a mega pack litter, it took me 20 minutes to clean up the mess.

Quality has deteriorated significantly
Initially, the best cat litter. Unfortunately, the quality has changed over the past few months. As soon as the cat urinates, the litter disintegrates into powder, smells bad, and no longer forms clumps like it used to. Such a shame. Perhaps an incentive for the company...

Smart Cat Litter
Was a definite plus for me as my boys are very fussy about what litter they likes to use. I have given away so many partly used cat litter bags to my local cat rescue that they sent me a Christmascard! .
I came across this litter and thought I'd give it a try, wow an absolute game changer the boys now use the litterbox and it's a flushable, and totally biodegradable product
plus being able to flush it down the toilet made it a no brainer

Best litter out there though does track
I've tried lots of litters clay/ wood pellets, but this is arguably the best I've ever used, here's why.
Firstly it clumps absolutely fantastic. Each wee turns into one neat solid little lump. Remove put it down the toilet flush job's a good one.
Regarding poop, there is absolutely no waste because a scoop will sift everything
The litter also disguises any unpleasant smells really well. There are only two downsides to this litter. Expense and tracking but just get the hoover out

very poor quality
I’ve been using this litter for over 20 years. The quality has deteriorated so much that it’s really not worth the money anymore – it’s incredibly dusty. It clumps poorly, and the texture is no longer granular but more like flour with lumps in it.
I hope the next order will be better in terms of quality. If not, I’ll be switching to a different litter.

Worsened
I've been buying this litter for years. Recently, there's been a continuous decline in quality, and the last bag this month was unfortunately very, very poor. The litter smells like plaster; it's greyer than it used to be; it creates extreme dust when pouring and even when scooping; the clumps are less stable. I'm considering switching.

Cat’s Best Litter formula change?
This is the only litter we use for out two cats, received a new bag last week and the tracking is unbelievable! Has the formula changed? It is now a constant battle to keep on top of the litter scattered all over the house, I fear I’ll need to look at a different brand altogether as this is getting ridiculous! Very disappointed!

Doesn't clump anymore
Unfortunately, the litter no longer serves its purpose as it doesn't clump.

Very satisfied!
Very satisfactory product, it clumps very well and was accepted by my cats without any issues. It absorbs quite a lot.

Completely unsuitable
I've been buying this litter for 19 years. It was always excellent. Unfortunately, it no longer clumps and falls apart into a mushy mess when you try to clean the loo. I'll be looking for an alternative!

Not as good anymore
Unfortunately, the quality has deteriorated significantly, it produces a lot of dust and no longer absorbs odours as well.

has changed
Until recently, Cat's Best was the best litter ever. All our cats accepted it straight away. It clumped well.
However, with my last order, I immediately noticed the change. The litter is harder and unfortunately doesn’t clump as well anymore. Such a shame.

Cat litter
After many years of using Cats Best, I switched to Cats Best Cat Litter for the well-known reasons.
Now it’s too dusty for me, so I’ve ordered Cats Best Öko Plus again as a trial. At my son’s place (he’s new to having cats), it clumped excellently. I’ll give it another try now and see if the quality holds up.

Great clumping litter but lot of tracking
Very good litter, clumping which doesn't require to empty it too often. Feels clean. Doesn't produce dust like gravel-based litter.
However this version has quite some tracking all over the place as it gets stuck in paws. Minor inconvenient.

Unfortunately, this litter doesn't clump as well anymore; it used to be much better!
At first, I was very satisfied. Then came the "Cats Best Ökostreu" in new packaging, which was supposed to be exactly the same. Recently, however, it hasn’t been clumping properly anymore. I find that really disappointing!

Not good anymore
Unfortunately, it’s no longer what it used to be. Especially the last pack was of shockingly poor quality. It used to be light-coloured and clumped and absorbed brilliantly. Now it’s dark, doesn’t clump, and the worst part is: it no longer neutralises odours like it used to. The toilet starts smelling really quickly now. Honestly, very, very disappointing. It used to be the best!

Outstanding
I cannot recommend it more highly. Odourfree, clumps well, flushes down the loo, only need to replace once a week. Long haired Molly got smelly fur ball pellets stuck to her hind quarters at first, the vet showed me how to zzz them off with a cheap beard trimmer, easy peasy. Lasts for ages, outstanding value for money.

Not as Hoped.
Over the many years I have had cats this latest one rarely goes outside and doesn't use catflap. I have had her over 2 years and is about 7 now. I have used a well known brand of litter for this time however I was recommended "Cats Best litter as being much better. However I find it rarely clumps and all I scoop up is minute lumps that spread all over the tray. The litter seems to get caught up in her paws and find bits over the kitchen floor and the the stair carpet.
