Not as good as it was
It covers the odour well hence the stars. Used for over a year now and the quality not same, still not odour but the clumping is not round and compact as before. Now turns out as a mashy mud rather than the well form pieces. The litter is now more dusty and seam like stones before was softer. They should bring back the old formula.

Shame
I'm a big fan of this cat litter, but the last bag was very poor. Hardly any clumping – I thought it might be a one-off. Unfortunately, I've heard the same from friends. I'm considering switching, as it’s getting too expensive for me as a foster home... with such poor quality.

Smell and Wearability
First of all, it barely binds odours, if at all. Yesterday I refilled it, the cats used it once, and the whole room stank the next day. The second point is that it sticks terribly to long-haired cats and gets spread everywhere. With the other product, it was much less of an issue because it was finer. I'm now using it as a filler rather than the main product.

Quality has deteriorated
The litter in the latest bag is darker than usual. I was already wondering about that.
Now I’ve noticed that the consumption is much, much higher than usual. What’s been changed here? For me, the price-performance ratio no longer adds up.

Good Litter but ... **NO LONGER FLUSHABLE!!**
I've happily used Cat's Best Original for *10 years*, flushing it without problem. All the granules used to be really soft, easily crumbling to dust between your fingers. However, it appears the formulation has changed; it now contains small but very hard granules of wood chip that DO NOT DISSOLVE. I've just forked out *hundreds* to clear a drain blockage caused by this product. It's still a good litter (lightweight, easy-to-remove clumps) but do yourself a favour: PUT IT IN THE BIN!

Unfortunately, very delicate.
Very fine, almost like sawdust in parts.
Not like it used to be anymore!

Not satisfied
I’m not happy at all, it doesn’t clump properly and the cat keeps getting it stuck between its paws and spreading it around the flat.

It's ok
The litter used to be better. Unfortunately, the clumps break apart very easily. A positive point is the lightweight.

Quality has really gone downhill, such a shame
I've been using this litter for a very long time, but for some time now it hasn't been clumping at all! The granules are much larger (which wouldn't be a problem for me), but it's much darker and, in my opinion, not as dry as it should be anymore. Such a shame, I'm currently trying out alternatives. Cats Best at this price and with the deteriorated quality will no longer be purchased.

Litter
I've been using this litter for many years, but unfortunately, I have to say that the quality isn't as good anymore. It doesn't clump as well and smells, which wasn't the case before.

No longer clumps
I have used this product for years, and the last few bags I have had no longer clump to the standard of previous bags. At first I thought it may have got damp, but the next bag was the same. Now looking for a new litter

Bad purchase
Wanted to try something different... but unfortunately, it turned out to be a bad idea.
My cats refused to use the litter box with this litter, even though it has such a lovely wood scent.
I think I'll stick with Tigerino litter instead.

Cat's Best clumping cat litter
I’ve always been satisfied until now. Recently, I ordered a small pack, and the litter doesn’t clump like it used to ??

Significant drop in quality
I have been using this cat litter exclusively since 2020 for two litter boxes. The first time I bought a small pack at the beginning of 2020, I was absolutely thrilled! After that, I purchased 3 x 40L packs, and although I noticed a slight drop in quality, it still met my expectations. (3 x lasts 6-7 months)
I then bought another 3 packs and noticed a more significant decline in quality.
The clumps break apart quickly, and the litter starts smelling strongly of urine quite fast (even with daily cleaning).

Doubled in price
I really liked this litter for my 2 cats, but it has spiked in price so much, it really is upsetting. In 2021 I paid appr.12£ for a 20 litre bag, in 2022 it was approximately 15£ and now its gone up to 23£ per 8.6kg/20litre bag. On top of that the deliver drivers complain about the weight if you order 2 bags and usually these bags get here torn and the contents scattered in the box.

Cat suddenly not clean
I think the litter is great, I like the wood scent. Our tomcat suddenly started being unclean, so I used a different litter and had no more issues. It's a shame we can't use it anymore.

Cat litter
I've been using it since the day my cats moved in!
It's practical that I can dispose of it in the toilet, works great! However, it has actually become a bit finer and dustier over time, and it smells quicker, so my tomcat no longer likes to use it and does his business in front of the litter box! And it's gotten more expensive too! I have two Maine Coons and clean the litter box twice a day, but the quality has deteriorated so much that I'm now looking for an alternative in the near future!!!

What has changed? Change it back please
I have used this cat litter for years, I didn't mind the high price because it was worth it. There was No mess, no smell. now it sticks to my cats paws and goes everywhere. the clumps break up easier when cleaning, meaning you need to do a full litter clean more often. something has changed. I am now on the hunt for new litter. Change it back please as this used to be the best cat litter for multi cat house unfortunately it's not anymore

Something has definitely changed, and it's not for the better.
I have tried several 'good' brands of litter for my 4 cats, but always come back to this one. It used to be excellent, so didn't mind the price of it, but for the past few months I've noticed it's a lower grade of product. They've changed the formula, and now it's just a standard litter as the cheaper ones. I continue to use it because I like how easy it is to sift, but it's definitely reduced in quality. It's very disappointing.
