quality is gone
It was the best cat litter until, just recently, the quality of it dropped dramatically and Cat's Best became Cat's Worst litter. I am so disappointed - formula is completely different, the new one has bigger chunks, doesn't clump as it used to, it's tracking and the main thing it stinks horribly! I have to give up buying it and that's a shame Cat's Best loosing customers out of their greed and stupid decisions.

Awful
Awful. Leaves mess everywhere. Wee bits of litter get stuck in cat paws and scattered everywhere.
Cat litter
This cat litter is far to small and bitty not suitable for a semi longhaired cat,all the litters stuck to his fluff.should have been advertised as small bits of litter.
Used it for years - time for a review
Cat's Best + Zooplus top entry litter box combination has been the best solution for my 3 cats. Very little tracks and mostly falls off as they jump up and out. One quick hoover around the box once a day, that's it. Clumps well, little to no dust and those of you that flush it down the toilet: DON'T.
No litter is designed to do that as it expands - of course it will block especially if you have an ancient pipe system & cat poop could it potentially contain harmful parasites. Use beco bags
Good but kept blocking the toilet
I really liked this litter as it’s very absorbent. My only issue is it kept blocking the toilet. This may be more of an issue with my toilet though.

Doesn’t clump like it used to
Really dissapointed. I’ve just forked out almost £60 for two bags of litter. Go to scoop out the first few clumps after being promised it clumps really well for the wee clumps to all fall apart. Totally dissapointed.

A nightmare
This litter certainly has values (no dust, a good odour control) but in my experience as a owner of 3 cats turned out a nightmare because I had it all around the house. Maybe it is too light but surely not the best litter I tried. I consider a benefit of the litter if it does not drive me crazy with clean it up all around.

Cat's best litter
This is one of the best litters I've tried, (well, not me personally, bt you get my drift).
Anyway, yes it clumps, but my little treasure sometimes likes to keep pawing at it, so it can break up bt it's not that bad really, an extra few scoops through & the rest of the litter is fine. Hardly no smell & yes, it can track bt I use a handheld roller brush to pick up the few bits, instead of getting the hoover out...works for me! So IMHO, it is a good litter.
Too dusty
Great value for money but very dusty, I struggle myself with the dust when i am scooping.

Totally marks smell
One of the best I’ve tried

Best holder in of smells
Ok, it does track BUT I've tried loads of litters and this is the non-whiffiest so far IMHO. Also I have a VERY picky mog, who is very specific about what she will put her feet on. Forget pellets, she just pees next to the litter tray. Some others she will use, then arbitrarily decide they hurt her feet. Never a problem with this. Would give 5 stars if tracked less. Have put down mats around trays, that make that far less of a problem.

Excellent
Have been using it for years. Seems some people say it doesn't mask smell, if your cat doesn't bury its poo, then that is the only way you are going to smell anything, absolutely masks any smell of wee, and if your cat buries its poo, that too. Tracking is not good, it gets everywhere, but seems in this world you can't have everything. I still rate it at five *****
Very economical as there is no waste, you only have to remove the poo and the wee balls, the rest of the litter is untainted.
Worst cat litter
My usual wood cat litter hasn't been available lately, so I thought I'd give this a try. I think it is the worst cat litter I have ever had. The wee clumps it up, but then it stays wet instead of absorbing it like other products do! The litter tray ends up with these wet, very sticky clumps, and if you try to pick them up with the litter shovel, they stick to it and it's difficult to clean it off... awful! Thank god I only ordered the trial size! I should ask for my money back, really.

Very good cat litter
I don’t understand some reviews saying it doesn’t mask the smell because it does! Since using it I can’t smell the cat pee which used to smell strong before you entered the room, it’s flushable another bonus only issue with it is it tracks a lot but for me it’s not a deal breaker just need to sweep more often than before

Another fail try at an overhyped litter
I finally tried the Cat's Best as I am desperately trying to find an appropriate litter, that can do 3 basic things: clump well, mask smell, not trace. Well, Cat's Best is doing none of those. Even more, the tracing is the worst I've ever seen! I had to hoover 4x in one day and after not even 24h I've had enough of this litter and completely swapped it with another one.

Overall good litter but spreads a lot
I have one long haired kitten and I must admit that the odour control and clumping are far better than any clay or silica litter that I've tried out before. It is low dust and has a mild, pleasant smell. However I can't give it 5* as it spreads absolutely EVERYWHERE, meaning that I end up hoovering 4 times a day.

Best yet, but not quite perfect
I have tried several different litters for two elderly cats with failing kidneys and this is the best so far. I keep the litter at least 50mm deep, and it absorbs the copious urine reasonably well without turning into the sloppy, sticky mess I got with expensive clay-based litters. Poos tend to be very obvious, but as I have a dog who tries to beat me to them that is actually rather an advantage! Small bags are easier to handle than the giant sack. The downside is that it spreads everywhere.

Great mixer!
Got the trial pack as we usually use clumping fine granular litter. The litter travels all over the house. Mixed Cat’s best in with old granular litter to see how our 2 elderly cats were with it. Great result. Litter still travels but less granules and Cat’s best is easier to sweep up! It clumps well and is easy to clear out of litter tray with scoop. Will continue to use it in a mix.

I loveee This…
It’s better to use closed litter box because it really like to spread but with closed one it’s super…
I bought 20l now because this one is sold now…❤️🍯

I love it 😻
First we used normal shop silicon litter but it was out of stock for 1.5 month so we needed to buy one from catsan but I hate it so then I saw cats best on zooplus and me and my cat love it 😻
But one thing with that litter is that better is to use it for closed litter boxes I used open and I was dying all over the house but with closed one is super

Great for indoors
I've tried loads of different types of cat litter before, but I was already using this one with my previous cat. There's no smell of urine, the dirty little clumps go straight into the toilet with one move, so there's no 'tired' litter left. No need to clean the litter tray, it's always fresh.

Loss of quality
I've been using this litter for years, and the last one I bought this month is different. As soon as I poured it, I noticed the colour was darker, but what really surprised me is that it CLUMPS TERRIBLY, nothing like it used to. And on top of that, I've got a 40-litre bag 😓 I don't understand why they do these things, they've lost a customer with me.

The worst cat litter
Tragic! The worst cat litter I've ever tried. Cleaning it up is a disaster, it doesn't clump. The smell when it comes into contact with waste is unbearable. We couldn't get rid of it from the flat, even after switching to a different litter.
A waste of money. I do not recommend it!

Strong smell
Wow, such a strong smell that the whole flat reeked of it. If you’re even a bit sensitive to scents or have asthma, you really shouldn’t buy this. I couldn’t use it.

Decline in quality
For some time now, the litter has stopped clumping like it used to, so dirty bits of litter end up in the tray, which just makes the tray smell. Instead of a nicely clumped ball, you just get a mushy mess. I’ve been ordering this litter for years, but now I’m simply disappointed, and I probably won’t order it again.

Not Quite Perfect Litter
I switched from bentonite litter to Cats Best because the bentonite litter was too heavy. My cat lady loves Cats Best. She buries her business really well and there’s no smell of cat toilet at all. I’m only giving 4 stars because it’s quite dusty. I always buy the big 40-litre bag for two litter boxes. When the bag is empty and there’s only a little litter left in the box, I throw out the remaining litter completely and refill with fresh litter.

Very good
I've had cats in my flat for 23 years and this litter is by far the best out of all the litters I've bought for my cats.

It's alright
It clumps well, can be flushed down the toilet, lasts a long time, and doesn’t make their fur all dusty.
One problem is that you have to sweep a lot. It’s not too bad if you have a rug in front of the cat toilet, but it would get spread everywhere if you didn’t pay attention.

SUPER BUN!!
I initially bought the 8.6kg pack. It lasted heroically (about 2 months for one kitten). Now I ordered the big 17kg bag. It covers the smell very well, doesn’t scatter litter around the house, doesn’t stick to their paws, and forms clumps that are very easy to collect.

Dissatisfied
The fact that you can flush it down the toilet doesn't make up for how dusty it is (to the point it makes you want to cough), how much it spreads around the flat (even with a short-haired cat, it ends up in the laundry), and how poorly it absorbs smells, especially from faeces. I'm only giving it a second star because at least the urine clumps together nicely.

Finally, a good litter
We've tried all sorts of litter—silica, bentonite, different brands—but this one is the real winner. It clumps well, flushes down the toilet easily, and finally, the litter doesn't stink. It has a pleasant wood shavings scent, like being in a carpenter's workshop. It's true that Lilike tracks out a few bits, but that's the same with all the other litters, even with a mat in front of the tray.

Significant decline in litter quality
Disaster, what happened to this cat litter... Clumping is now just a myth, smelly urine-soaked wooden bits are scattered all over the litter box, trying to scoop out the urine is a nightmare, and in no time the box smells so bad that my cat started doing its business around the house. Honestly, this is the worst litter I've ever used—even Benek is better than this one...

Wood Clumping Litter
It clumps really well, stays stable and hardly smells. It's also very economical – I only need 2 bags a year for 3 litter boxes.
Unfortunately, it gets quite dusty if you're not careful, and it breaks down easily if the humidity is too high, like on my balcony.
