I last bought this litter in March and it used to be great until it went out of stock for a long spell....BUT when it came back into stock something has changed with this litter which is really disappointing. Whilst it doesn't trail across the floor after my cat exits her litter box, the clumping of this litter is not what it used to be. It now seems to break up when trying to empty it. I seem to be using so much more of this stuff for this reason. Really disappointing, why fix something that isn't broken. This used to be the best litter, I've been using it for 14 years or so but I am beginning to think about putting myself through the trauma of trying alternate makes.

I gave this litter five stars three years ago then it clumped better than any I had used in 50 plus years but something has changed as it is now no better than other cheaper products. The clump no longer sticks together but breaks up on removal into smaller bits.

As previous reviews, this is not as good as OKO plus.... no clumping takes place. It just breaks into a powder which you can only clean by emptying the whole lot out.

I have a creamy Persian cat. Throughout his 3 years with me I tried the following litters: - Applaws Nature's Calling: My favourite and best of all. Has a pleasant smell, traps odours well (but, have to admit, not so good as Cat's Best Oko Plus), clumps reliably and lasts long (I usually pour half of pack at once, so 2 packs of 6kg last for 1,5-2 months). It does track a bit though, but least of all the litters I've tried and sweeping/hoovering once or twice a week is enough. The only minus is that it colours my cat's creamy paws as it is dark brown. - Cat's Best Oko Plus: It traps odours very well, lasts for long (similar to Applaws) and has no issues with clumping. However, this is probably the worst tracking litter I had. I had to hoover/brush twice a day as little bits stick onto cat's paws and fur and is spread everywhere at home. I didn't even use all pack, switched back to Applaws. - Cat's Best Nature Gold: Tried once. The pellets are really large and this makes clumping not so effective. I bought it because it said that it does not stick to fur and is suitable for long haired cats. Well, those pellets did stick to my cat's fur and tracked a lot. Though it is environmentally friendly and eliminates smells for some time. But loose litter eventually becomes smelly and you have to change it. - Porta Pine Wood: Good cat litter, would rank it 2nd after Applaws. It smells fresh and is literally dust free, leaves no visible marks. It lasts long, great odour control, clumps well and my cat loved it. However, it tracks quite badly, but not as bad as Cat's Best Oko Plus. - Catsan Hygiene: Not good at all. Never bought again. Clumps stay wet for a long time making it difficult to remove from the box, and when they dry they glue to the box so that I had to scratch them off. Controls smell bad, tracks a bit and clumps of wet litter stick to the fur. It is dusty and caused runny eyes and sneezing to my Persian friend. - World's Best (Green and Red): Not good. Advised by vet after using Catsan Hygiene. It is dusty and didn't improve my cat's runny eyes much. It clumps very well, tracks a bit. Though it stinks horribly, probably because loose litter eventually starts smelling. Thus, no odour control. As such I do not remember it lasting long. - Tygerino Crystals Silicate: Used in an emergency when my order was late. Disliked bad smell. It also runs out quickly, one pack lasted for 3 days, tracks a bit.

After the ok experience with the crystals i decided to try this for my two siberians in the attempt to go for something a bit more natural. I have tried it for more than a month now and i came to the conclusion that i would not buy this again. Firstly it leaves trail every time, which defeats the main point. Secondly it doesn't clump properly... the main clump is ok, but the grains are quite big, so if partially wet, they drop from the main clump and keep the wee in the litter. Also do not stick to poo at all, hence the smell can spread ... I have no idea how others can have such good experience really. I would not recommend it. I will try some finer litter next.

After reading the reviews on this product I thought I would give it a go. It's awful! It smells of sawdust, doesn't stop the cat odour from the tray and doesn't clump well enough to remove lumps. This will work out really expensive as I will have to change the tray completely after only 3 days! The other clumping litters at the high price end are far better - the tray only needs changing completely once a week. I'll be sticking with Extreme Classic from now on!

I've been using Cat's Best litter for years, but unfortunately the quality has really gone downhill. First with the original (red bag) – it creates a lot of dust, which makes it unusable for a cat with asthma. The pellet version doesn't produce dust, but the clumps fall apart when you try to remove them. This means you end up using a lot more, since you have to fish out all the broken clumps. Plus, the pellets get tracked all the way into the hallway. Once I've finished my last bag, I'll be switching to a different litter.

There's no cat pee smell, but the cats track it all over the flat because it sticks to their fur. The pee falls apart or can be scratched apart really, really easily, so it's not hygienic. Because of this, it's very hard to clean.

I've been buying it for a long time because Sugus has asthma, and while looking for pellets with little dust, I found these. For years they've been great; I might find some dust at the bottom of the bag, but now there's dust from the very first time I pour it into the litter box. You can't lower the quality and keep the same price.

At first, I was really impressed with the cat litter. But for about a year now, the quality has been inconsistent—sometimes it's great, but other times it's poor because I often receive almost only sand instead of pellets.

Darker, bits of debris, dowels crushed, overall not like what I usually order.
