Excellent value for money

ok, yes , it does track a bit but I am preared to put up with this as this litter is superb value for money, easy to dispose of and completely eliminates odour. Thoroughly recommend it. I would not use anything else now.

Nice litter, shame about the tracking

My cat likes this litter, and it clumps nicely so is easy to deal with. However the tracking is dreadful! My whole house is covered in tiny bits of litter from my cat's paws. I put a special mat outside the tray but this made no difference at all. If tracking isn't an issue for you, I'd recommend this product. If it is, avoid!

Great

I love this cat litter. It clumps together really well and covers up the toilet smells. It's a great bonus that I am able to flush it too, which makes life a lot easier! One very slight downside (but I wouldn't rate it lower because of it) is that is tracks quite a bit, but I don't mind having to hoover it often, as it is a great litter.

Worst for tracking

Gets stuck in paws and ends up everywhere in the house Even put a tracking mat in front of the litter box to catch majority but no good. Switched back to wooden pellets

great choice

lasts long time and compacts what my cat does in litter tray but this product is out of stock lately so beware.

Good litter but a bit messy

I quite like the fact that you can flush it and it's biodegradable. My cats seem to like it ans it absorbs the smell more than I was expecting for a wooden base litter. The only downside is that it's so light you end up with litter everywhere in the house, it gets spread by the cat's paws and your shoes very easily.

SIMPLY THE BEST

Before this I tried Catsan (stinks), paper litter (gets stuck to paws and treads everywhere) and wood pellet litter, which worked fine, but was costing me at least £3/week. I'm now spending about £3/month and can't imagine I'll every need to change litters again.

good

The products its self are so good, but the trouble is only one of my kitten would use it, the other one would not use it, it crumb well, little track but I cove with. control the smell quite well.

Good but tracks badly

This litter clumps and flushes well and traps odours quite well. I change it every 2 weeks - I scoop the mess out without topping up. This was the good bit. It tracks horribly! Our litter tray is in downstairs toilet by the front door, and the litter inevitably gets tracked all around the front door. It sticks to the front door mat and you cannot just sweep it off; must hoover. The track mat does not help. I switched for silica for a week and it was a bliss, a holiday from constant hoover.

Great Litter, easy and clean

Just love this, I used silica before and am still finding bits ! So easy to use, no wastage, absolutely hits the spot!

litter

ok so be honest i was very excited about this litter at first.Have to be honest and fair play to this product, is natural and you can flush it love it, cover odors very well even my cats have very little stinky poops ( raw feed ), clumps well but by mistake of one of my cats whisch love to mess about so if i am not quick enough clump is not clump anymore so take it out is more difficult.but as i said not fault of litter.so overally great but tracking is just NIGHTMARE.

unhappy

Would never buy this product again. It was. Messy,mushy,and was tracked everywhere. It really wasn't good with odor control.

OK but.....

I am sure they have changed the consistency of Oko Plus since I last bought it. The granules seem quite hard and 'gritty', the clumping isn't as good as I remember and it is certainly not flushing away easily down the toilet. I keep finding a build up of cat litter in the u bend. A bit of a worry. So I've stopped flushing the pee clumps. When this bag is used up I am going back to World's Best. It may be more expensive but you get what you pay for.

Awesome stuff!

We have a geriatric cat (20 yrs old)who was starting to find other cat litters difficult on his poor old paws. The result was either little 'accidents' or a horrendous smell as he was unwilling/unable to bury anything. This litter has been fantastic from day one. It lasts an amazingly long time, we've had this first bag of 30l for well over a month. It's odour control is great and our old puss has started to bury everything again now. Yippee! Great at clumping so easy to scoop out the dirty litter and flush down the loo. This is time, money and sense of smell saving. Can't recommend enough.

Is the search finally over?!

Finally given this one a go as was getting sick of clay clumping litter smells in our house and outdoor bin. The odour control is fenomenal and even after soiling just has a fresh woody smell to it. Clumps do break up when fishing but this is no concern as it doesn't smell and presumably any stragglers will eventually clump again in due course and be removed. So convenient flushing down the loo and no more smelly bin or trips outdoors with bags of poop! It does track, but providing you have an easy convenience vacuum it's really no trouble. Highly recommended!

Brilliant

Makes the awful side of cat ownership a lot more pleasant, order free and clumps brilliantly it copes with two house cats and is very economical too

very good but messy

i used to use worlds best with which i was quite happy and tried this as an alternative. it is incredible when it comes to odour - i live in an appartment and always had a problem with odours to some degree - but not with oko plus - it clumps ok, and i flush it down the toilet. the cats seem to like it as well and use the tray even if it hasn't been emptied. the biggest problem is how messy it is - my cats are ragdolls with very furry paws (which doesn't help) so every morning the floor allover the apartment is like someone got hold of the jar with the oatflakes and started spreading spoonfuls of it liberally all over! really oko people > you got a fab product there on some parts: the odour prevention is really really exceptional and i shall keep on using it for this reason but you really got to sort the texture of it somehow - worlds best was so much better on that front

Amazing

Being new to cat ownership I had already tried two other "clumping" litters and been horribly disappointed with how rubbish they were. Only just started using this one and i'm in love already! The clumps are incredible, so easy to remove and don't disintegrate like the other clay based litters i've tried. Leaves the box looking and smelling clean. Yes it does track a little worse than the others but that's a small price to pay for its performance

Truly Cat's Best!

We have particularly awkward house cats, who have 4 litter trays. Previously we'd used a wood pellet litter, but found we were going through a bag every other day. We initially balked at the price of Cat's Best Oko Plus Cat litter, but decided to give it a try. The cats are happy to use it, the clumping properties are excellent, which means unused litter lasts for ages, plus it can be flushed down the loo. It doesn't smell despite repeat uses, and works out much much cheaper in the long run. Would highly recommend!

Fab, Fab, Fab!

This litter is brilliant, it was recommended to me. It clumps well for easy removal, just top up when necessary, my cats like it quite thick and sanitise weekly. Does not stick to cats long fur, bit messy on floor but thats to be expected. I don't flush it down the toilet..

Excellent product

It absorbs pee really well and forms a nice clump. It also does a great job with odours. Excellent product.

No dust at all

I love this litter, and so do my pets. There's hardly any dust, but I've noticed that when I buy the same amount split into two bags, it's sandier and creates more dust.

Everything's fine

After reading the reviews, I went with another brand, but I came back and it turned out the reviews were lying. It clumps nicely, the cats like it, there are no problems with it, it doesn’t create dust, and it doesn’t hurt their paws.

Lower quality

I've been using this litter for 4 years, and it was the best quality-wise. I never even tried to compare the price because it suited my needs perfectly. But the last two bags just aren't the same, it doesn't clump anymore, the litter just spreads everywhere. I'll give it another month, but unfortunately I'll have to give it up. I have 5 cats -> 3 litter boxes, and cleaning has become more tiring and less efficient.

I'm disappointed with the cat litter

Hello, I've been using this cat litter for over 14 years. Since my last order, I'm really disappointed. The clumps are soaked all the way to the bottom. The clumps are way bigger than I've ever seen before. Obviously, a lot more litter is needed now. Has the product been changed or is it a production error with this batch?

Terrible

I've been using it for a long time, but lately it's just getting worse and worse. It creates a lot of dust, and the litter itself falls apart. I won't be buying it again. I'm really disappointed—I'm having the same issue with the food, it crumbles apart. I'm thinking of buying elsewhere. The quality leaves a lot to be desired.

Terrible!

What a terrible cat litter! It's incredibly dusty! My cat comes out of the litter box short of breath and coughing. The whole house is covered in a white haze. Whenever I scoop the box, a cloud of dust hangs in the air. I've tried many types of litter, but this one is by far the worst.

Worsened quality

The granules have changed to being big and sharp, so now my cats don’t like using the litter box filled with this litter anymore. Even when you step on it yourself, it’s really uncomfortable, so imagine how it feels for a cat’s paws. It’s a pity, because it used to be great.

Has gotten very bad

I've been using this litter for almost 10 years, but the last 3 batches have been a disaster. It smells terrible. I even contacted Cats Best to ask why, but they just said they hadn't changed anything. It's a shame they don't take this seriously.

Totally gone downhill

I've been using this cat litter since 2020, basically since I got my cats. It was recommended to me and I was absolutely thrilled with it. But for several weeks or even months now, I've noticed that it doesn't clump well at all, and the worst part for me is that it starts to smell bad really quickly!! I never had this problem with the litter before. It's such a shame because it's really hard to find a new, good litter.

Very practical, my cats like it

It's really practical for cleaning, since you can put the clumped pee straight into the toilet. After a few minutes, the pee dries and forms a ball, making it easy to remove. My two cats use it without any issues.

Change in composition?

I've been using this cat litter for over a year now for my three Maine Coons and I was always super happy with it. The new bag I ordered now is useless. All the clumps from the pee fall apart straight away when I scoop and end up scattered all over the litter box. Really annoying. I'd like to know if the formula has changed or if it's still the same and I just got unlucky with my 40-litre bag.

Disappointment

Years ago, this was good litter, but the problem is it isn’t anymore. The quality has dropped a lot, it doesn’t even clump or anything now. You’ve lost a customer who used to buy this litter for years, but I just can’t put up with it anymore. Not giving it another chance, it’s terrible, honestly don’t buy it. Anything is better than this.
