No longer clumps
The most recent bag (bought around November 2024) doesn't clump properly. The area remains wet and when you go to scoop, it disintegrates all over the clean litter.

Product has changed!! Awful!!
I have used this litter for years but the formula has now changed and it is absolutely awful in every way! It doesn’t clump now so the urine soaks in every where and it doesn’t mask the smell of urine in anyway either! My sister had the same results too when she purchased it.
I wouldn’t buy it again even if it was half the price! Such a shame as it used to be a great product. Avoid!

Not recommended. It is not what it used to be
really disappointed with this product. I foster rescue cats & initially found this excellent, clumped really well, no mess & no smells. It's not cheap however it would last around 6 weeks (3-4 cats) so cost effective. Purchased a bag three weeks ago which has run out! It no longer clumps; leaves a wet sticky patty! sticks to scoop, tray, paws & gets all over the place. loads of lose dirty litter that is hard to get out. I don't know what's changed but it is poor quality! I do NOT recommend

Definitely changed for the worse
Typically I bought this when it was brilliant stuff. The very next bag I got was different and now it tracks everywhere and does not clump, it goes all slushy and sticks to the scoop and anything it touches.
I will say it still keeps the smells at bay but this will be my last bag unless they change it back.

Terrible - bring back the old formula!
This litter used to be great, no complaints. However they have recently changed the formula and it is now terrible - does not clump at all so we are wasting it trying to get all the wet bits out, and it tracks all over the house. Will not be buying any more.

Not the same
I have used this cat litter for years and was happy with it. Like other reviewers, I find formula has changed and it is now tracking everywhere. Find it on my sofa! Not buying any more.

Formula has changed!
Bought this product before and it's always been great. However I think they've changed the formula as now the litter tracks everywhere, it's harder to clean out due to how fine the litter is and it doesn't hold smells.

BRING BACK OLD FORMULA
I’ve been using Cat’s best original for 4 years. Recently formula has changed for worst. It’s darker, pieces are hard like shredded wood pellet. Do not clump as good as old one and it is NOT FLUSHABLE anymore. It doesn’t dissolve. I’m very disappointed.

Horrible litter
It tracks really badly and doesn't clump well at all. It just goes slushy. I won't buy it again.

It’s Changed!
I’ve been using this for years and it’s been great. Recently I notice the litter is a finer cut and now it tracks all over the house ! I will definitely stop using it.

Its changed
I've only used this litter for the 4 months but the bag I opened today is completely different! It's lighter in colour, much smaller pieces and spreads right through house. My cats pee turned into a paste! I read other reviews saying similar things but couldn't understand it until now, I'm guessing I got older bags of the old type before it changed and now I've got the new. Definitely won't be buying it again!

A nightmare. Don’t waste your money.
I have two cats - one shorthair and one longhair - and decided to give this a try. I managed to put up with it for less than a day! It clung to the fluffy one’s paws, trousers and tail so she tracked it everywhere. The other one thought it made a comfy bed and also tracked it all over. Life’s too short to hoover three times a day so I’ll go back to my cheap clumping litter from B&M.

Changed formula
Been using this litter for about a year and a half and it’s been great up until now. The last bag I bought you can tell they have changed something in it. It’s lighter in colour and the ‘clumps’ just fall apart into tiny pieces as soon as you touch them with the scoop. May as well be a non-clumping litter. So disappointed won’t be buying anymore

litter stick on paws and bum so spread the pee everywhere. Clumps too soft.
I’m not happy at all. The litter does clump but it is so soft that if my cat goes for a second round with digging it will break and go all the litter box. It stick on my cat bum and on paws so as soon as she finishes and have the brilliant idea to jump on bed or sofa I’ll find the wet pieces of litter completely mashed on my furniture or floor when she seats. It holds the smell very well so at least a positive thing. I purchase it as much cheaper than catsan natural but not worth it.

They have changed the product . - it's not BEST anymore, the cat litter is like powder & does not clump
This BEST cat litter used to be pretty good, but the last two bags are like powder, do not clump, stays wet, & I am forever sweeping up cat litter, it goes everywhere and now sticks to the cats paws. I won't be buying again, it's cheap rubbish. Now looking for an alternative cat litter.

Tracks EVERYWHERE
I had been VERY happy with this litter in the past. Happy to pay extra as was good at everything apart from the tracking. Theyve changed the composition. Tracking, worse, if thats possible. To extent I felt I was living in a litter tray. No more changed the brand. Cheaper. Does everything with less tracking and cheaper. Happy. But not with cat's best. Never again.

It's changed for the worse
I have used this stuff for pretty much all of my cat's life (she's 15 years now) but the last 2 or 3 orders, they must have changed the composition of the product, but it doesn't matter whether it's the normal cheap one or the more expensive pellets, they don't absorb the pee anymore. So whenever I check the cat ltoilet, there are always pee puddles. Before my cat would pee and it would all get absorbed and clump. So I stopped buying this product altogether. Such a shame.

Does not clump

Avoid. Defo not cats best!!
Awful. Spreads through the house too easily on little paws. Does not mask urine smell. It clumps,but falls apart on contact. Waste of money.

Used to be the best but TERRIBLE now.
I’m furious they changed their formula & it’s unusable now. It’s always been bad at tracking but I forgave that because it was so good at everything else. It’s not even useable. Furious. I buy very large bags so a total waste of A LOT of money!! The litter no longer absorbs, clumps or maintains freshness. DO NOT BUY: I’m furious as I was so content for so many years & now out of the blue have had to start testing out cat litters: nightmare! Very Unsettling for my cats!!!
