I was initially sceptical when my friend recommended this litter to me. But I was very satisfied and have been buying it for years now. However, it seems the formula has been changed. The clumps fall apart, leaving lots of small clumps in the litter. And the smell becomes unbearable after just a week (I scoop out clumps and droppings 2 to 3 times a day straight away). I'm now looking for a new litter.

I have to agree with the negative opinions. We also had another bag that was so dusty that I even contacted the manufacturer. Quality management sees no defect. I will be switching to a different litter!

The litter is great. It clumps well (you need to be a bit careful when scooping it out) and reduces odours. It does produce a bit of dust, so it’s not completely dust-free, but the advantages clearly outweigh this. I’m thrilled, and the kitten took to it straight away, even though it was used to a different type of litter.

We’ve been using silica litter so far because we didn’t want to scoop out clumps of urine. However, after 1.5 weeks, it already started to smell a bit strong, and after 4 weeks, it was really unpleasant. Now we’ve switched to this wood litter—although we do have to filter out both types of waste, you can dispose of small amounts of it via the toilet 👏🏻 No smell so far, we’re continuing to test it alongside ☝🏼

We've been using this litter for a long time and were always satisfied, but ever since we bought a new bag, it's been extremely dusty and no longer controls odours like it used to. Please go back to the old formula! This is just not acceptable. Now, unfortunately, we have to look for an alternative...

The best litter I've had so far. It lasts for a really long time. I only use this one now 👍🏻

We've been using CatsBest here for years, and one of my tomcats won't use any other litter. Unfortunately, with the last few deliveries, we've noticed an increase in dust, the clumps are falling apart, and this leaves wet residue in the litter tray, meaning it needs to be replaced more often than before.

We used to be really impressed with this litter. Now, it seems there’s been a second change in quality within a year, so we’ll have to look for a different litter. The "new" version is much coarser, the clumps fall apart immediately when you try to remove them, and whereas a large pack used to last about a month, it suddenly ran out after just a week, which must be a result of the two issues mentioned above. This was not a good improvement.

Advantages: The litter is lightweight and doesn’t create dust. Other than that, this stuff is a complete mess. My three rascals spread it all over the flat. I’ve never had this issue with any other litter. On top of that, it’s an absolute pain to sift the clumps out of the litter boxes. And I’m already using a scoop with large holes (CatIt). Conclusion: Never again!!

It's a shame, my cats don't use it at all. Based on the reviews, I expected something better. Firstly, it doesn't clump properly; the clumps fall apart when you try to remove them, and it doesn't smell particularly good.

Worst litter I have ever used in forty years of having cats. Does not clump effectively and cat scatters it all over the floor. Would not recommend product.

I have been using this litter for years, but since the last order, it has been so extremely dusty that we had to sieve it because our cats were completely covered in dust. The clumping is also no longer as it should be; it falls apart as soon as you try to remove it, making disposal very tedious. I suspect the formula has been changed.

The cat litter is lightweight, smells natural, and is noticeably easier to dispose of than silica litter. It forms clumps that can be easily flushed down the toilet.

Smells pleasantly of wood, very economical, very eco-friendly. Brilliant! Our ultimate solution.

I really wanted to try a natural clumping litter, so I decided to give it a go. Unfortunately, it was a bad purchase. All the urine clumps fall apart, and the smell is unbearable. Such a shame. One positive point is that it doesn’t produce any dust at all. I’ll stick with bentonite.

Great product. I understand cats can have their preferences as well as the owner. After trying many different brands that one is the top one.

We've been using this litter for several years now, but with the last delivery, we noticed that something has changed. It doesn't clump as well anymore, and the clumps unfortunately fall apart, leaving behind small bits, which is really annoying.

For five years, we used Cat's Best with joy, but the last two packs have been absolutely disgusting! - Smells awful despite constantly cleaning the litter box - The fine litter gets everywhere, even when the cat steps out slowly - Sticks to their paws and ends up being spread all over the flat - No clumps to be found after they pee, which is why there's always that horrible pee smell.

Based on the reviews and the price (fortunately, I only ordered one pack), I decided to try this litter! The litter itself already smells far from pleasant and reminds me more of the floor of a hamster cage! But the absolute worst part is that the litter spreads throughout the entire flat in no time, and you need a really good vacuum cleaner to get it off upholstered furniture in particular!

I've been using this litter for ages and was always happy with it. But since last month, the litter has become darker and coarser. It no longer absorbs as well as it used to. I won't be using it anymore. I can only advise against this product now.
