You can't buy better than this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Since changing to Cat's Best my Dylan has never been happier to use his litter tray, unfortunately since taking him on as a rescue siamese someone kindly dumped a cat with feline aids near to us and Dylan now has Feline Aids but we keep him in, he also has a very large pen so he has his litter trays every where, we never get a smell even when we have forgotten to clean one for a few days! (sorry Dylan) It is so easy to clean out and great that I can put it in my compost bin. I would recommend it to anyone with a cat they have to have indoors.

Brilliant - I will recommend it to everyone!

When I first got Bagel I was using cheap cat litters which didn't clump very well at all, I even accidently bought a non-clumping one once and that was beyond horrific! This cat litter is fantastic! I was dubious of the price at first but due to the little round balls of clumped wee barely any litter is used and it lasts for ages! Holds smell well, and doesn't seem to track anymore than some of the other litters I have used (:

YOU HAVE TO TRY THIS!!

Whilst being a slightly pricey option, it is worth every penny and lasts more than twice as long as other biodegradable products such as wood pellets. The product is fantastic for odour control and my kitties seem to prefer this to anything I have used before. One of my cats has a tendency to urinate outside of his litter trays if they are not completely clean but, since using this product for 6 months, he has not done this once! The only down side is that, as it is so lightweight, it does track on the cats paws out of the tray very easily but it is alleviated if you use a mat.

Cat Oko plus cat litter

This stuff is amazing and trust me when I say this, it will last a long time. It clumps into like a gel substance and holds adore amazingly well too. I love the stuff. This is my time of using it and will continue to use it.

Not as great as reviews

After reading how great the reviews for this product were, we bought a large bag for our 2 cats that share 1 box. It does not cover the smell as well as some other brands we have used. It goes everywhere too! I think it is because the litter is too light. Maybe my cats "kick" it too hard thus it went all around outside of their box and it stuck on their paws too. Will not try this again. Sorry!

It really is the best.

This litter clumps amazingly well - better than any other clumping litter I've ever used. It lasts much longer because you only remove what's actually been soiled, and bonus points for being able to flush it down the toilet. The odor control is very good too. Yes, it tracks a bit more than Catsan, but the long-term economics, ease of use and the odor control more than make up for the extra hoovering.

Wow this is saving us a fortune and saving our noses!

We bought a 40l bag for our two cats 2 months ago and we are still using it now - with Catsan we would have been through an enormous quantity by now. As this clumps so well and smells nice we are only throwing away what has really been used rather than throwing lots away in an attempt to make sure you get rid of all the smell. Being able to flush it is also a great as it means the smell is gone straight away without taking a trip outside. Only thing to watch is to make sure you dont flush too much at a time - but that is pretty obvious really! My partner was very sceptical about getting clumping litter, and flushing it down the loo but he commented this morning how much money we must have save compared to Catsan + Litter Locker bags.

Fantastic!

After trying a few different clumping litters, I decided to give this one a shot. I have not been disappointed, clumps really well, no unpleasant odours and lasts for ages. Fantastic!

Use up other litter.

So good you'll never want to go back to ordinary litter ever again, so use up any old stuff before you start using this. If you do have some old stuff left over, it can be used in the snow when mixed with salt, to prevent slipping!, better than sand etc. Great not to have to carry those heavy bags home too.

A great odor preventing cat litter

I bought this cat litter as I have a litter tray in a small warm bathroom and the smell with clay litter was very unpleasant. This litter has stopped odors completely, and being able to flush the cat waste down the toilet is a great advantage too. I think the clumping is perfectly adequate and while the litter does get tracked about just outside of the box, it is easily swept up. If you are fed up with cat smells from your litter tray, then buy this cat litter!

Not bad though odour problem

It is good in the clumps though not completely. When you scoop it out it breaks apart. Also the odour has a VERY bad problem so the downside to this littler for my lovely kitty. Overall its not that best. I will be trying something else for now.

Absorbent and flushable but oh! that tracking

I have tried most types of litter since my elderly cat became enforcably housebound; this one is good on absorbency, not bad at odour control, clumps well and - best of all - is flushable but.....due to its light weight it is the worst for tracking (even with the use of a special mat in front of the tray) that I have come across and can be found all over the house, necessitating vacuuming several times per day.

Best litter I've ever used (not personally, of course!)

I wish I'd found Cat's Best years ago. I've bought a variety of litters over the past 20 years, but this is the best of all. Initially I was put off buying it because thought it would be more expensive than the litter I was buying for my two kittens previously. I was wrong. It is working out cheaper because its superb clumping ability means it lasts much longer. I ordered a 20 litre bag on 5th January and there's still a bit in the bag. It is also pretty well dust-free, and buying from Zooplus I don't have to lug it home! Yes, it tracks a bit, but so has every other litter I've bought, and it's very easy to sweep up. I certainly wouldn't want to buy anything else now.

Very good stuff

I wish I knew about this cat litter earlier! It's great. No smell and my kitten likes it very much. I'll never buy that other smelly stuff again.

Very good

When I bought my 2 Birmans they were using this litter so I carried on with it. It is great as it hides smells, clumps well, is flushable and lasts ages! It would have 5 stars if the dust was reduced, my cats sneezed every time they came out of the litter box and I noticed it when I remove clumps daily. I swapped to the nature gold version of this litter as that has zero dust!

THE BEST CAT LITTER EVER

I USE THIS LITTER FOR MY THREE INDOOR CATS AND IT IS THEIR FAVORITE AS WELL AS MINE. SIMPLY THE BEST!

Wish I believed the hype sooner..

I have tried three other types and brands of litter before caving into the reviews and trying Cats Best. I used to choose price over quality, but now I understand that when it comes to cat litter, its best to pay a bit more for a quality litter. Its really absorbant which makes tidying up the tray so easy after my cat has showered on it. Plus, a little goes along way. My only problem now is what to do with the 3 big, half used bags of other branded cat litter I have left. After using Cats best I cant bear to go back to those inferior litters now.

GREAT

I love it, cats love it, no bad smells, just flushing into the toilet.. just great!! I will never change again..

Quite good

We have two male cats and have been fairly pleased with this litter. It clumps well and is absorbent. It does track a little, but what litter doesn't. We love that it is easily flushable and seems to last very well. I'm moving on to try some different litters to see if I can find something with slightly better odour control, and possible something slightly finer. May well be back though.

Amazing litter, terrible tracking!!

I tried this litter after reading the great reviews. It really is amazing! It clumps instantly after being urinated on and forms perfect 'balls' which are easily scooped out and flushed down the loo. It has no smell and is of soft consistancy, nice for paws. It is very economical and you hardly need to clean out the tray. The only bad thing about this litter is that is tracks VERY VERY BADLY and i keep finding bits all over my couch etc. I'm now going to try the 'Gold' version of this litter.

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.
