Good, but a lot of dust!

This litter works well with my two BSH kittens. They seem to like the feel. Very convenient to use. Clumps very well. Traps smell? Yes, up to a point, but there's no magic in this world! I found that, my cats like me to put a lot of litter down before they would use it. Needs changing completely once every 7-10 days. Downside is that, there is a lot of dust with this litter, and I seem to be allergic to it. It tracks a fair bit as well, so I need to hover everyday.

didn't smell to help odor at all

one small kitten and daily scooping and the litter box had to be changed after 3 days...not convinced

Definitely the best!

Was a bit hesitant to try this due to cost but going by reviews I gave it a go and WOW! SO economical - a little goes a long way! Smell is non-existant (recommend a Gimpet Deluxe litter tray!) and now dealing with the litter tray has almost become a pleasure! Does track but a quick hoover/brush soon sorts it. My cats love it. TRY IT!

My first clumping litter and it's brilliant

I've never tried clumping litter before due to my own dust allergies, but have tried wood pellets, recycled paper, silica pearls etc. I'm well impressed with this litter! Even after weeks there's virtually no smells, I scoop once or twice a day, clumps go straight into the toilet bowl, can't be more practical. It does track a bit even with a mat, specially because my cat is long haired, but it just needs a 1 minute daily sweep around the box and it's done!

Planning ahead is worth it!

I have two housecats & have used lots of different types previously. As long as you plan your litter purchases then it's well worth it: far exceeds anything sold in supermarkets = less cleaning necessary & total value for money.

Nothing better!

This cat litter is unbeatable. Keeps the litter tray clean - if you use enough. My current cat loves it, and my last cat loved it as well. One slight downside - it does track a little, but that is a very small price to pay.

Nothing compares

I've been using this litter for about a month now and wish i had come across this product sooner. It's highly efficient due to the clumping action and the smell of cat business is masked brilliantly. All i can say regarding 'tracking' is that i've not had any problems as i brush my cats regularly and vacuum the carpet around the litter area once a week.

The Best Cat Litter

We have two kittens and decided to try Best Oko Plus - fantastic, odour free and clumps like no other litter we have tried (after it ran out we tried about two other types but they didn't even come close so we have quickly ordered a big bag)! You do get slight tracking but we have ordered a mat to put in front of the litter tray to see if that helps. We wouldn't use any other cat litter now we have been spoilt with this one.

My flat smells better

Now, I can't comment on the odor-fighting properties of this litter. However, the fact that it's flushable means that it get changed more often. So much less hassle!

Great cat litter

We have 6 indoor cats and have used everything from basic value fullers earth clumping litter to catsan non clumping. Having tried this we won't use anything else again. Clumps really well, does seem to last for absolutely ages, the cats love it, it smells fresh all the time - and although it does track a bit, it's not half as annoying as the big white lumps of catsan. Love it love it. Buy this!

Never Buy Any Other

We have 5 cats in our house and this litter is by far the best we have ever tried (and we've tried a few) Once you've tried it you will Never Buy Any Other,I promise you. You end up simply changing the litter just bacause you feel it's time too,not because of the odour.Trust me.

Norwegian Forest Cat Breeder

I have 8 NFOs at home (a flat) and smelling+dust issues are of primary importance. I can't tell that I have NO smell with Oko, but it is really acceptable and dust is very reduced. It's true that little pieces run through the house, but they are easy to clean, not difficult as the dust. The product clumps much better than usual clumping litter.

Best Litter there is

I love this litter. It is so easy to use, clean and clumps brilliantly. I have found other litters do not clump the pee effectively that enables you to remove it in one clump but this does. I can ensure the cat litter is free from Pee and Poo everyday and it only takes me a couple of minutes. It does track a bit but its a down side that is greatly over shadowed by the good sides. I dont use anything else but this.

Utterly brilliant

Can't give enough praise for this litter. I swapped to it after I read about possible health concerns over clumping litters. This one is natural, flushable, compostable and it clumps. Plus, it has the lovely small grain texture that my fussy boys prefer. Yes, it does end up on the floor (because it's so light - an advantage when lugging the bag around!), but that just means a bit of extra hoovering. Excellent value and excellent results - I'll never go back!

Cattery owner/Vet nurse

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!the best cat litter ever. This is a great product. Very little tracking, clumps really well so you have very minimal wastage. No nasty niffs or pongs,great price as well. Have never had a cat that refuses to use it. very reasonably priced would not use anything else

My Favourite cat litter

As a vet nurse, I have tried most litters on the market over the years and this is my favourite. There is some tracking but this is true of most products and it doesn't mark your floors like some! I would never have used a clumping litter before this. It is hygenic,biodegradable and lasts for ages.Also no litter tray odours. fab.

Just Perfect

I have been using OKO-PLUS for some time now(more than a year) and I think it is great! so do my cats! I have four cats who are all quite fussy,and sometimes six,(when my daughter comes with hers)and even she uses it now.It's perfect in every way, I would never use any other litter,there's no smell,no waste and it's good on the environment, yes there is a bit of tracking I just keep a small dustpan and brush near the trays.

great for indoor paws!

used silicate litter, but my two queens disaproved it hurt their paws.I tried everything Tried this litter,they love it!so long as it is deep there’s no nasty smell - EVER!!My cats are good at treading the litter out so I use an electric sweeper each morning, but now use a cat mat in front of the tray.i noticed it on the carpet but its easy to clean up, with my last litter which was fine, I didnt think there was a problem with treading, but actually it got ground into the carpet fibres.

Great value litter, my cats love it.

We've been using this litter for a month now. We have 4 indoor Maine Coons, who are fairly fussy. This litter really does work as well as it claims. The clumps don't break up when you scoop them out, so you really don't waste any litter at all. Most importantly for me, the odour control is fantastic. There is no ammonia smell, just a very vague hint of pine. It's biodegradable too, so good for the environment!

Wonderful stuff, but tracks through house very badly.

This is the best litter I've used in 20 years - no smell, economical and FLUSHABLE, but it does track badly, and you need to hoover every day. On the plus side, you never throw any unsoiled litter away, just top it up. It seems expensive, I know, but 40l lasts my 3 indoor cats 8 weeks. £2.50 a week for 3 cats who never go out - wonderful value! I'm going to give Cat's Best a try as a friend tells me it's just as good as Okoplus, but, being in pellet form, hardly tracks at all.

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.
