The best

we love this product, last for weeks for our 3 cats, do not stick to their long hair.

fantastic

this is the best litter we have ever used,we have 7 cats and a 10l bag lasts over a month easy,all you have to do is top it up and flush the mess down the pan

brilliant

I mix mine with a 1/3 recycled paper base cat litter. it clumps very well and is so easy to remove. The smells have disappeared, my two cats love it. it can be a bit messy, mainly because one of my cats likes to dig and dig. It works out very cheap, a bag seems to last for a very long time, I won't be changing my cat litter again.

Very little smell

This litter is very good, there is very little smell from it but it does track everywhere. Really easy to use as you can just flush the used stuff down the loo - good value for money

The best of the best without a doubt!

Great stuff no odours at all, i have also switched from woodshavings in my house rabbits cage because it smelt awful to oko plus and there are no odours from his cage and doesnt need cleaning no where near as much!

Best ever.

After having used several other types of litter I have finally found one that can't be beaten. Cats Best Oko Plus is amazing value for money, easy to use, highly economical and does hide a lot of smells. The only downside is that it does track a bit but I wouldn't let that tiny fact interfere with it's ability. If you haven't tried it before now, what are you waiting for...

Comments on Cat's Best Cat Litter.

This is dreadful stuff. It gets caught up in the cats' claws and can be found in every part of the house. Mind you, the cats like it because they have great fun scratching up piles of it and spreading them in all directions. Nor is it particularly economical because it forms enormous damp clumps which have to be removed. Much as the cats will no doubt miss their fun, I am going back to Catsan.

So clean!

I bought this with hesitation despite the glowing reviews, as I've always used litter such as Pettex and thought this would be messy and not clump. However, it is a lot less smelly and so easy to remove the dirty litter in clumps. The remaining litter is clean. I'm using it in the Gimpet Deluxe dirt tray (also excellent) and although it is much lighter than Pettex and tracks a bit, I still think the plus points outweigh this. The best positive is that I can flush dirt down the toilet (with a couple of flushes). This has saved on loads of small plastic nappy bags filled with cat dirt being put into bigger bin liners...which then split under the weight.. as with four cats there is a lot of dirt! I just wish this litter was widely available in the UK, because as much as I love Zooplus, getting the huge 40L bag delivered can be a bit of a pain if you're not in or the bag tears enroute (which did last time but sorted out by zooplus). I may buy the smaller bags next time as it would be easier to store. Excellent product, highly recommend.

Cat's Best OKO Plus

Best cat litter on market. Clean and easy to handle, reduces odour, no allergic reaction. Highly recommend

The mess and the smell

I had been using cheap litter from from a value supermarket and an open litter tray for 1 adolescent cat. It wasn't too bad. Then I purchased a jumbo cat toilet from zooplus and some of this oko plus litter. Oh my god...after one use I was convinced my cat had gone to the loo on the carpet, because the smell was awful, I mean it couldn't have been any worse if he had done a poo on my lap. Granted it clumps and absorbs well, but does absolutely nothing for the smell. Perhaps my cat has more foul smelling poo than the other users, or something? Also it tracks everywhere despite having a grated catch tray at the exit of the toilet. It sticks to the paws, fur and every part of the the cat that touches it. I'm not surprised it got stuck in one user's cat's eye. My house is now a mesy smelly place. Fortunately my cat will always look to go outside to the loo before using the tray, but for a lot of people this isn't an option. My verdict..avoid and try something else.

Best litter I have ever used

Over the years I have tried every type of litter. Before trying Cats Best I tried ultra clumping clay litters. Some were OK but others disintegrated when removing the clumps. Somebody recommended Cats Best and I was skeptical but now use it for all 4 litter trays. It clumps very well and there are no smells (as long as solids are removed) As only the dirty litter is removed, it is very economical. A bag lasts over a month (per tray). It is also very light so easy to dispose of. They say it can be flushed but I don't recommend it as it can block the toilet. It is eco-friendly which is a bonus.

simply brilliant

I have had cats all my life and used a lot of different cat litters but this is the best i have came across certaintly will not be changing from this one it does as it actually says.

Wouldn't use anything else

This stuff is great. I have two indoor cats and the 10l bag lasts me just under two months. It has a gentle pine scent, which although subtle, REALLY covers the smell of any 'number two's! It clumps well and compared to the clay based clumping litter I used to use, really absorbs all liquid without congealing into a gooey mess. Love it!

The BEST on the market!

I've used this litter for over 2 years now, and with 7 cats around the house it has been a life saver. There is never any smell of urine, which is the main issue with cats, and as long as solid waste is well covered by the cat or cleaned out quickly there are no other smells either! It has a slight scent of natural pine wood, which covers other smells naturally. The house used to smell when I had only 1 cat and used clay-based litter, now with 7 and Oko's Best it's odour free! Tracking is an issue but a mat and normal daily sweeping/hoovering is enough to keep that at bay. And the fact that it can be flushed down the toilet is very ecological, and practical to boot! It lasts very long and it can't even be compared to other types of litter on value...besides, an odour-free pet home is priceless!

the cats whiskers

the breeder i got one of my bengals from recommended this and it's working well so far! it's quite good at masking smells, but bits of it do get everywhere everytime one of them pays a visit. it's user friendly for clean up jobs too. will definately buy again

Best Litter By Far

Have had cats since childhood and of recent years have tried many of the 'best' litters on the market. None can match Oko Plus. It clumps very well, is easy to clean and most important there is absolutely no nasty ammonia odour. Also has the added advantage of being compostable. A 10Ltr bag lasts a long time. I have been using Oko Plus for some time now and wouldn't use anything else.

Great litter, great value

This litter may be more expensive than some 'supermarket' grade products, but you need far less and it really does trap all odours. Highly recommended.

Better than "worlds best"!!!!!

We have too Burmese kittens and we have tried a number of litters (clay, corn, wood etc) including the one recommended in all the books ("worlds best cat litter"). The "cats best" litter is by far superior as it eliminates 95% of the smells, where as "worlds best" has a overpowering vomit smell to it after a first use!!! yuk! Cats best works is brilliant as it can be used in the same way, can be flushed, i am definately using less of it as it is ultra clumping and best of all it costs a lot less than worlds best!!!

Superb! best litter by a mile!!!!!!!!!

Cant recommend enough. This is the best litter i've ever used - no smell whatsoever, the clumping is excellent meaning its clean as all wee and solids are removed daily, and works out cheaper than other non clumping brands as it lasts longer AND DOESN'T STINK OUT HOUSE!

excellent

Brilliant, have 3 indoor cats, it's best I have tried, only negative is it tracks.

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.
