Has stopped clumping well
This is my usual litter and the last 20l bag clumps really poorly. I’m having to do full changes and so it’s less cost effective. It’s tracking even more than usual, I’m going to have to move onto something else.

Great stuff!
Absolutely love this product after moving over from clay! Clumps really nicely for effective disposal and keeps nasty smells at bay!

Horrible not for me, price point good though.
This is the worse litter I have used. It was pleasant for the first day and was easy to hoover up any spilliage - but all down hill from there.
I love the idea of flushing and it was great, but even though I took all the clumps immediately I could literally smell this cat litter in my home, it would drift into every room and I could smell an undertone of urine.
When I could no longer take anymore I cleaned out the boxes entirely and after washing, the litter left a slug like residue.

Good enough that I plan to continue using
Overall I think this is a good product, it clumps really well and quickly, downsides are that it tracks everywhere (but that is to be expected) the only other issue is that due to being unscented the it is not the best at odour control, but if your cat is not fond of scented litters then this is a good choice.

Terrible
There is not a single good thing about this litter, we bought it because the tofu pellets were out of stock. Clumping is the worst I’ve seen, it’s all over my floor and sticks to our feet, it smells awful & it’s extremely dusty. Both my cats are black and after they use the litter their face is covered in dust.

Bad clumping ability
As said in title, the litter doesn’t form one big clump, but numerous tiny clumps which defies the point of getting clumping litter. Will never buy again
Great
My cat loves this

This litter is dusty
My cat starded to sneeze from this letter because it's very dusty. I would never recommend someone. I bought the big bag and I am so disappointed that I can't use it.
Best by far
I've used this litter for a few years now, after trying almost every other brand available. I find it excellent value because it's cleaner, easy to scoop and no odour. Anything else is just wasting money. Zooplus is also the best price I've found for this size of bag.

Great litter
I've been using this litter for years and find it to be very good for odour control as well as the fact that it lasts ages. This large pack is convenient but the only thing I'd say lets it down is the packaging, which is paper, and although it has always arrived intact, could get damaged. Also, 17kg is quite difficult to carry on your own so it would be handy if there was a little handle at the top. Just a suggestion but otherwise very handy and good quality litter.

Changed Formula
I have been buying this litter for a long time and it was very good quality but sadly the last two bags seem to have a completely different texture and don't clump the urine as before. Also i have noticed my two long haired cats seem to be constantly cleaning and biting their paws as if they are being irritated. I will be choosing another brand from now on.

Product has changed
We loved this product for a long time, it clumped brilliantly and contained the smell. They've changed it recently, it's lighter in colour, doesn't clump and doesn't keep in the smell. When you go to pick up a clump, it falls apart and spreads across the clean litter. Such a shame as it was a great product before they messed with it.
Changed formula no longer clumps
Used to be good why change it?

Very good clumping and no dust but batch variations
We have used cats best clumping litter for over 1 year now and it is brilliant at clumping and has a natural neutral fresh forest scent. It is brilliant are odor control (literally can't smell pee or poo). The only thing is that there are batch to batch variations sometimes, some batches are super clumping, but we had one batch which was very light in colour and the clumping is not as great (breaks apart), but zooplus gave us a refund on it. We are happy with it and recommend it to everyone

Changes ?
I’ve been using this cat litter for a few years, but lately, something is off. It starts smelling really quickly, much faster than before. At first, I thought the problem might be the litter box and even considered replacing it, but that didn’t help either. For now, I’ve ordered litter from five different brands to test them out because something just isn’t right.

Should have got this earlier!
This cat litter is the best, really. I wish I had discovered it years ago. It is light weight, totally absorbing, so quick and easy to deal with . No bad smells, just a light woody one. To top it all, the price of the 40L is great. Add some cat food or other cat related items to your order and you can have a free delivery. Amazing!!😻

No longer clumps
The most recent bag (bought around November 2024) doesn't clump properly. The area remains wet and when you go to scoop, it disintegrates all over the clean litter.

Brilliant
Best litter on the market and with Zooplus best price

Product has changed!! Awful!!
I have used this litter for years but the formula has now changed and it is absolutely awful in every way! It doesn’t clump now so the urine soaks in every where and it doesn’t mask the smell of urine in anyway either! My sister had the same results too when she purchased it.
I wouldn’t buy it again even if it was half the price! Such a shame as it used to be a great product. Avoid!

Not recommended. It is not what it used to be
really disappointed with this product. I foster rescue cats & initially found this excellent, clumped really well, no mess & no smells. It's not cheap however it would last around 6 weeks (3-4 cats) so cost effective. Purchased a bag three weeks ago which has run out! It no longer clumps; leaves a wet sticky patty! sticks to scoop, tray, paws & gets all over the place. loads of lose dirty litter that is hard to get out. I don't know what's changed but it is poor quality! I do NOT recommend

Great for indoors
I've tried loads of different types of cat litter before, but I was already using this one with my previous cat. There's no smell of urine, the dirty little clumps go straight into the toilet with one move, so there's no 'tired' litter left. No need to clean the litter tray, it's always fresh.

Loss of quality
I've been using this litter for years, and the last one I bought this month is different. As soon as I poured it, I noticed the colour was darker, but what really surprised me is that it CLUMPS TERRIBLY, nothing like it used to. And on top of that, I've got a 40-litre bag 😓 I don't understand why they do these things, they've lost a customer with me.

The worst cat litter
Tragic! The worst cat litter I've ever tried. Cleaning it up is a disaster, it doesn't clump. The smell when it comes into contact with waste is unbearable. We couldn't get rid of it from the flat, even after switching to a different litter.
A waste of money. I do not recommend it!

Strong smell
Wow, such a strong smell that the whole flat reeked of it. If you’re even a bit sensitive to scents or have asthma, you really shouldn’t buy this. I couldn’t use it.

Decline in quality
For some time now, the litter has stopped clumping like it used to, so dirty bits of litter end up in the tray, which just makes the tray smell. Instead of a nicely clumped ball, you just get a mushy mess. I’ve been ordering this litter for years, but now I’m simply disappointed, and I probably won’t order it again.

Not Quite Perfect Litter
I switched from bentonite litter to Cats Best because the bentonite litter was too heavy. My cat lady loves Cats Best. She buries her business really well and there’s no smell of cat toilet at all. I’m only giving 4 stars because it’s quite dusty. I always buy the big 40-litre bag for two litter boxes. When the bag is empty and there’s only a little litter left in the box, I throw out the remaining litter completely and refill with fresh litter.

I've had cats in my flat for 23 years and this litter is by far the best out of all the litters I've bought for my cats.

It's alright
It clumps well, can be flushed down the toilet, lasts a long time, and doesn’t make their fur all dusty.
One problem is that you have to sweep a lot. It’s not too bad if you have a rug in front of the cat toilet, but it would get spread everywhere if you didn’t pay attention.

SUPER BUN!!
I initially bought the 8.6kg pack. It lasted heroically (about 2 months for one kitten). Now I ordered the big 17kg bag. It covers the smell very well, doesn’t scatter litter around the house, doesn’t stick to their paws, and forms clumps that are very easy to collect.

Dissatisfied
The fact that you can flush it down the toilet doesn't make up for how dusty it is (to the point it makes you want to cough), how much it spreads around the flat (even with a short-haired cat, it ends up in the laundry), and how poorly it absorbs smells, especially from faeces. I'm only giving it a second star because at least the urine clumps together nicely.

Top-notch litter, no dust, no unpleasant smells. I've been using it for a month now and haven't even needed to clean the tray. Really economical as well.

Finally, a good litter
We've tried all sorts of litter—silica, bentonite, different brands—but this one is the real winner. It clumps well, flushes down the toilet easily, and finally, the litter doesn't stink. It has a pleasant wood shavings scent, like being in a carpenter's workshop. It's true that Lilike tracks out a few bits, but that's the same with all the other litters, even with a mat in front of the tray.

Odourless absorbent
Very absorbent litter, easy to remove because it clumps together. No smell. Wood shavings, so it's eco-friendly.
