Expectations not met
The cats do use the toilet, but I also have the problem of it sticking to their paws. It’s really everywhere, and I often see our tomcat licking the little crumbs off his paws. I think the odour control is okay, and it clumps well enough for us, but our two cats are good about covering up their messes. I don’t dare flush the litter down the toilet either—I just don’t want to deal with clogged pipes. I’ll probably try something else. It’s definitely not the Holy Grail I was hoping for.

Great product!
We've been using this litter for years. We've tried almost all the different types (silica litter, classic clumping litter, etc.) and I have to say: it works great for us. However, I would recommend using a covered litter box, as the odour control isn't necessarily outstanding. If you're using an open litter box and have high expectations for odour neutrality, you might want to look at a different product... But for us, no other litter is an option anymore ;)

Good for the kitty, the wallet, and the back
Even after weeks, there’s no unpleasant odour, the clumps are easy to remove, and the packs are lightweight compared to other clumping litters. Thanks to the low replacement frequency, it’s also quite affordable. The only downside: after 8 weeks, the litter starts to get a bit dusty.

Stop searching ..this is the best litter on the market.
As the title says this is the best cat litter i have found i have tried many many litters but this is true the best when it comes to fighting odours....don't be put off by the price as the bag will last you for ages.
40L bag lasts us 3-4 months with 1 indoor cat.
Litter is also flushable in the toilet..and totally natural and non clumping

Actually great
As the title already says: ACTUALLY, this litter is great! It's simply brilliant that you can dispose of it via the toilet. That’s also the main reason why I’ve bought it for the third time.
BUT: my entire flat is covered with these wooden bits. And I’m not exaggerating!
The stuff sticks to the cats’ paws and gets wonderfully spread everywhere.
It’s driving me absolutely crazy. I’d actually need to vacuum twice a day.
I even put a rug around the litter box, but that doesn’t help either.
Another downside is the smell. When the cats do their business, the whole flat stinks within seconds. And I’m not exaggerating here either :-(
It’s not as bad with other types of litter.
As I said, the disposal via the toilet is fantastic, it’s genius, and I love it.
Still, I’ll switch back to a different litter because the mess in the flat is driving me up the wall.

Super
We have two kittens. Initially, we used Premiere Excellent, but then switched based on a recommendation.
We’re absolutely thrilled with it, and so are the little rascals.
And the best part: disposal via the toilet!

I'm really sorry... but no...
I find it really annoying that I seem to be one of the few people who has issues with this litter.
For me, it’s not pleasant-smelling at all – it reeks horribly. Okay, apparently most people feel differently, probably because the litter box isn’t directly in their own rooms, but my flatmate won’t let me put it anywhere else. This means every night I’m woken up by the stench, and it doesn’t go away unless I immediately fling the window open (which is just great in winter, of course). So much for odour control.
Unfortunately, I’ve also found that it doesn’t clump properly. Everything falls apart as soon as I touch it with the scoop (and sometimes it even sticks to the scoop!). And even after I’ve sifted everything out, the litter doesn’t feel clean anymore.
The only good thing is that the litter doesn’t create any dust at all, but it ends up scattered all over the flat.
Conclusion: It’s okay as a last resort, but clearly my cat and this litter just don’t seem to be a good match. Guess I’ll have to keep looking.

Nature for the cat
I have two tomcats who are very happy with it. The natural litter is just as odour-binding. As a cat mum with 40 years of experience, it’s the BEST on the market.

Super Bedding
I really don’t understand why so many people are complaining here that the litter doesn’t clump. Personally, I’ve rarely had a crumbled clump when cleaning the litter box. If you remove the pee pile right after the cat has done its business, it might not be fully stable yet and could crumble a bit, which is logical because the plant fibres need a bit of time to swell and form the bond. But if you wait five minutes, everything works perfectly and nothing falls apart. We’ve also got the litter scattered around the flat, and we just vacuum it up every one or two days – job done. And of course it smells when the cat does a number two – that’s just normal. It’s the same for humans, isn’t it? Anyone who gets worked up about things like this should either teach their cat to use the human toilet, including flushing, or simply not have a cat. I really like this litter and I’m super happy with it.

Great if you don't mind constant hoovering!
This cat litter lasts longer than any other litter, clumps well and disguises odour. Thats all great but have found the tracking to be pretty bad. Am rather house proud so like to keep a clean ship but found I was having to hoover the cat room and hall at leaf three times a day. It may not help if you have six cats like I have and long haired. For those with less cats I would recommend ir but the tracking was too much for me.

Cat litter is lightweight, clumps well, and doesn't stick to the scoop.
I switched from regular clumping litter to Cat's Best cat litter because it's much lighter and compostable. It doesn't generate as much organic waste.
I'm very satisfied, although I don't dare to flush the clumps down the toilet.

Simply brilliant
The best litter there is. Absolutely no unpleasant odours, even when the litter is used for a longer period of time. The urine clumps are great for removal – provided there’s enough litter in the tray! If there’s too little, the litter sticks to the bottom and the clumps fall apart! We only ever buy CBÖP litter now!!!

Super bedding, good environmental footprint
I’m simply thrilled. The absorbency and binding ability are fantastic, the litter doesn’t smell, and the environmental impact of the litter is excellent due to the use of German wood waste. I’m a convinced buyer.

The best cat litter I have tried so far
I have tried so many different types of cat litter now - thankfully our cat seems nonplussed and I'm keen to find her something good, then stick to it. Up until this point, I couldn't find something that lasted, controlled odour, felt like the 'right' choice for her and that was, overall, good value for money. The fact this is more eco-friendly than others is a bonus!
This has been ticking all of the boxes. It's incredibly light so convenient to use, there is virtually no bad odour at all, it lasts for ages as long as you scoop daily and occasionally top the litter up, and for this reason, it's good value for money. I averaged £15 per month on moderately good litter. Now I average £10, give or take.
Some people have complained about the tracking but, from my experience, this has not tracked any more than other cat litter types I have bought in the past. Whether it was clumping micro granules or the slightly larger granules, they were still all tracked, the thicker granules being worse. I've just accepted that there will be some around by her litter box so keep a broom there.
All in all, really happy with it!

Super
This cat litter is simply brilliant. I've been using it for almost two years now.
It's economical...
I have five cats and only need one 40-litre bag per month. Before, I had to buy a bag almost every week, but with this cat litter, that's finally a thing of the past.
It's clean...
It doesn't create dust like many other types of cat litter.
Easy to dispose of...
Just open the toilet and flush it away :-) I used to have a cat bin where I collected the dirty litter. The bin would quickly start to smell, and the bags weren't exactly light either. But thankfully, that's all in the past :-)
As soon as a cat uses the litter box, clumps form quickly, whether at the edge or in the middle. This means you only remove the dirty litter.
So, my cats love it, and so do I.

The best cat litter
I've had cats for 20 years, and Cats Best Öko is clearly the best on the market for me. It's eco-friendly, smells good, and my cats love it.

very poor odour retention
Our tomcat tested it for 2 weeks... Normally, his litter box doesn’t smell at all (even without added fragrances). This is the first litter that caused a nasty odour in the flat... The clumps only work well if they’re not near the edge of the tray; otherwise, a soft, brown clump forms that sticks to the edge and clogs the litter scoop because the clump is simply too wet. It gets one star for being flushable and one for its weight, which unfortunately also has a downside, as the area where the litter gets scattered is much larger compared to natural clay litter...
I won’t be buying it again.

Not for diggers
I don’t know if it’s because my two cats love to dig, but after a week the litter falls apart, sticks to their paws, and then ends up EVERYWHERE. It’s awful. After 1.5 weeks at the latest, I had to completely empty the tray because it started to smell quite bad. While it’s very absorbent, meaning the usage is low (if you didn’t have to change it so often), and I do like that it’s a natural product, it’s just not worth all the cleaning effort.
