After the quality of cb litter had significantly declined, I switched to this pellet litter. Until a few months ago, I was very satisfied with it. However, even here, the drop in quality can no longer be ignored. It’s dustier, the pellets are much smaller and crumble quickly. The clumps no longer hold together when removed, and the odour control is also no longer effective. The manufacturer seems to be resting on its reputation.

I received a new delivery of the above-mentioned litter on 27/01/2018 and was delighted to find that the quality has returned to its former standard. The scent of wood is very pronounced, and the clumping works perfectly.

We always used to buy this litter with great pleasure. Surprisingly, the price has gone up massively, while the quality has gone down at the same time. Such a shame.

For ages, we've been using "Nature Gold" for our cats... Now the name has changed, and unfortunately, so has the quality: the bag now only contains small to tiny pellets and lots of dust – which means our Maine Coon cats end up spreading it all over the house, and it even gets stuck in their fur. The disappointment and frustration are huge!

Since the name change, there’s no affordable bulk package anymore, and now it’s called "lightly clumping," which basically means the clumps fall apart straight away. Unfortunately, it seems I’ll have to start looking for a different litter from another manufacturer.

Like other reviewers, I have ben using this product for some time (6 years). It was by far the best litter for long haired cats. The new 'rebranded litter" is so inferior. It doesn't clump properly anymore and turns to powder quickly which ends up tracking everywhere! I am desperately seeking a replacement!

We were convinced by "Nature Gold" and recommended it to others. "Smart Pellets" are not pellets but crumbs. Our Nevas spread it all over the flat. We'll look for an alternative. We definitely won't be buying Cat's Best again!

I’m absolutely thrilled that I can dispose of this litter in the toilet—it saves space in the bin and in the flat. For me, it’s the absolute top-notch litter, though unfortunately, it’s often sold out.

We had only good experiences for years. However, the last two bags contained hardly any pellets, but rather crumbs and small pieces. As a result, the litter ends up being spread around the house again. I hope the next delivery is back to the usual standard.

The new one is no longer comparable to the old one at all. Unfortunately, it has become very bad for long-haired cats.

We have two long-haired cats and mix Best Nature (70%) with Green Power (30%) – this is by far the best solution for us. The smell is very well contained, you only need to completely replace it about every 3-4 weeks, the litter doesn’t spread much, and thanks to Green Power, the litter clumps brilliantly.

This product used to be the best in my opinion but I'm afraid like so many things nowadays it has been changed but not for the better. If you feel the need to offer a pellet litter could you not offer both and let us choose? Sorry but after years of use I won't be using it

The NEW litter unfortunately can’t be compared to the old one anymore. The grains are almost as small as those of the eco version and, because they’re rougher, they naturally stick to the fur. The flat looks like a battlefield, and vacuuming is a daily chore. On top of that, the odour nuisance is much worse – even if the business is completely buried, it stinks until you clean it up. I’m extremely disappointed and definitely won’t be buying it again!

Unfortunately, the "NEW" litter is no longer as good in quality as the conventional one. The litter is no longer as absorbent, and it hardly forms clumps anymore. Additionally, the bags tear easily at the handles but are still difficult to open. I also miss the double pack at a reasonable price – with a household of 4 cats, this really adds up. I hope the manufacturers take note of this and improve the quality and price again.

I have been using this litter for many years with no problems. However recently noticed there has been a change of packaging and also a change in the size of the pellets. I buy this product as I have 4 Longhaired Persians and they didn’t get stuck in the paws resulting in Little tracking. I have now noticed a steady stream of pellets making there way up the stair carpet. This litter is way more expensive than the normal Cats best and I am afraid I will have to look at an alternative.

After repeated orders and now even a name change from Gold to SMART PELLETS, the GRAIN SIZE HAS BECOME EVEN SMALLER. DOUBLE thick MINUS TO THE PRODUCER!!! Now it’s almost just an Eco Plus litter, with both variants being spread all over the flat.

Very good product and also easy to dispose of via the toilet, doesn’t clog. The cat’s happy, and the owner is too.

Since the product change, the litter has unfortunately become much worse. I had been using it for a long time out of conviction, but now I’ll be switching to another one. Poor clumping (everything falls apart, proper "slabs" on the bottom of the tray), bad odour control, dust, and above all, much higher consumption. The more affordable twin pack is no longer available either. Such a shame – a good product has been improved to death.

I was fully convinced by Cat's Best Nature Gold. Unfortunately, with the new version, some features that were important to me have been worsened. Due to the much smaller pellets, the fine dust content has increased significantly! Instead of clumping, it now tends to stick together, and the worst part is that a lot more crumbs are being carried out of the litter box! Previously, it was limited to a small area around the litter box, but now I find them all over the flat!!!! Such a shame, it has really deteriorated.

Since the more affordable twin pack of 2x20 litres is suddenly no longer available, we will no longer be ordering this product here. In a multi-cat household, 20 litres is far too little. The price/performance ratio is no longer acceptable.
