AI-generated summary based on reviews added by customers
Cat's Best Original cat litter has received mixed reviews. Many customers appreciate its excellent clumping ability and odour control, making it a favourite for years. However, recent changes in the formula have led to complaints about increased dustiness, poor clumping, and tracking issues. Despite these concerns, some users still find it economical and effective, highlighting its lightweight nature and pleasant woody scent. Overall, it's a product that has its ups and downs depending on individual preferences.
No longer has the quality.
We've been using this litter for many years.
Unfortunately, its quality has deteriorated significantly and varies with every order – the grain size, the colour, and the clumping behaviour.
The last order hardly clumps at all; the mushy mass just falls apart.
Such a shame. We'll have to switch to something else.

Tracks everywhere
I read a lot of the reviews on here so was expecting this to be a good product but whilst it does clump well, it seems to get everywhere, more so than any other litter we've used before. It's no longer confined to the area around the tray, but through the house, so I won't be buying this brand again.
disappointed((((
Hello. I decided to buy cat litter from you, before I always bought it in another online store. Ordered, paid, received. I opened the package and was very disappointed. Firstly, it does not gather into a lump, but forms small lumps that are simply not possible to collect. Very dissatisfied with the quality, bought elsewhere and everything was always super. I bought from you and probably won't buy again.

Still the best
I don’t know how many times I’ve tried other types, because in my opinion the odour control had deteriorated. No matter which litter I tried, this one remains my favourite. It doesn’t produce as much dust, it clumps well, and the odour control is still better than with other types of litter.

Clumps well, but the litter gets spread all over the house.
It clumps really well, but the litter is now everywhere... especially after cleaning it... on the sofa... in every room! Awful! …and our litter box is in the bathtub. It used to be better!

It’s dusty, dusty, and dusty.
Apart from the fact that it gets carried all over the flat, the litter creates an unbearable amount of dust when removing the clumps! You can literally see clouds of dust rising. I definitely won’t be buying it again.

Love it
It does leave a lot of litter around the box etc but I expected that given the reviews I'd read. Compared to the cheap clumping gravel I used to use, this is much better value for money since I find that I don't need to replace it as often and can dispose of it down the toilet. It's so much lighter as well so I actually love it in comparison. I can handle brushing up the mess it leaves, no big deal. This also clumps a lot better and uses a lot less.
Cats don't like it or tolerate it.
I actually found the litter quite good as it smells pleasant, is very lightweight, and doesn’t get spread around the flat too much.
Unfortunately, my cat is reluctant to use the litter box with this litter and has become unclean since then, and the tomcat has developed a very bad cough after being in the litter box!
Such a shame, but it’s not usable for us like this...

Great stuff.
Used this for years. Lasts ages and we have five cats. Clumps/poop easy to remove and can flush down the toilet without blocking. Litter like new once clumps taken out. I use three large litter trays and fill them high (5 inches worth) then only need to top up once a week. Keeps the litter tray clean. Only annoyance is that is does track but the benefits outweigh that one negative.

Extremely dusty
The cat litter is extremely dusty. You can see it in the litter box as well as when cleaning it, when all the dust comes flying towards you. It absorbs urine well, but you can still smell fresh faeces. I’ll go back to buying the one for long-haired cats from Cats Best. It’s less dusty, and I had less of it scattered around the house.

Worst litter so far
The litter does absolutely nothing to combat odour, and since it doesn’t clump, cleaning it is even more difficult. It really reeks of faeces and urine. My tomcat spends even more time digging because he’s trying to cover up the smell.
The only positive point is that the litter is very lightweight and sticks less.

Worst litter I've tried
I only bought this because the cat litter i usually buy had sold out. I've had cats literally all my life and this is the worst cat litter I've tried. It's even worse than the cheap non-branded gravel cat litter you get from supermarkets. It's only semi-absorbant and the stuff gets EVERYWHERE even more so than other cat litters I've tried. I won't be buying again.

It used to be the best...
...unfortunately, the quality has deteriorated significantly. It no longer clumps properly, and when cleaning the litter box, everything falls apart. The consistency now is more like sawdust and gets carried around everywhere. I’ll probably have to look for a new litter, as Cat's Best has become quite unbearable. Such a shame.

Not just Cat's Best
After trying around 30 other types, both the cats and I are very satisfied.
It clumps well, is very economical, and weighs less than conventional litter.
Odour control is also very good.

Satisfactory
I’m happy with the litter; it clumps well, is lightweight, and dust-free. Unfortunately, out of our 11 cats, only 3 use this litter – I couldn’t convince the others.

Quality has declined
The product is nowhere near as good as it used to be. Like other reviewers, I have to report that the clumps fall apart as soon as you remove them from the litter tray. However, it’s still better than the cheap alternatives from the supermarket. I’ve tried a few of those and ended up coming back to Cat’s Best.

Very poor now
We've been buying this product for 12 years, but the quality has become incredibly poor. The litter practically turns to dust straight away. Such a shame. It used to be very good.

Very good
I'm using it for the first time, and it has "really" very little dust compared to other cat litters, where there's dust everywhere, especially in the toilet—just pure, heavy dust that you end up swallowing all the time, and I did too, as the room was filled with pure, massive dust. With this cat litter, we are all very, very satisfied. Pleasant scent, no dust in the toilet, like fresh wood—so pleasant, sweet is the fragrance, making you feel good. Highly recommended.

Best litter out
I started to use this litter when I became a registered Persian cat breeder. It is excellent and economical to use I have 7 Persians now as I no longer breed them and have no smell or dust or mess around the trays. The only problem I found with this litter was that when I had litters of kittens they tended to roll in it and get it in their coats a layer of wood chip over the top of this litter stopped this happening. Have used it for over 10 years now and wouldn't use anything else.

The BEST
We've tried many types of cat litter, but this one is by far the best!
