Problem solved!
Great cat littler as although I prefer to use WBCL for my kitten, he did'nt like it and sneezed a lot after covering his little mess (he takes a little too long to be honest) so I tried Cat's Best Nature Gold as I wanted to avoid corn based litter and also wanted no tracking. It has worked just fine and Louie is happy and comfortable using his many trays around the house. I will carry on using this litter and I am also really impressed with customer services and fast turn around of orders on Zooplus.

Pipi lounge for cats
This is the BEST thing I’ve ever bought for the cat litter box.
With my six cats (Siamese and Oriental Shorthair), a cat litter box is essential.
This is ideal:
1) No little pellets scattered outside.
2) Almost no odour.
3) Very good clumping.
However, it’s a bit pricey.
And flushing the clumps down the toilet is no problem.
All in all, a great product!

Loss of quality
We've been using this litter for 2 years now. Both of our tomcats had no issues getting used to it. My Persian cat rarely gets litter stuck in his fur. And the litter lasts incredibly long.
BUT for about 6 months now, the litter has been getting increasingly finer – it gets tracked across the entire flat via their paws and sticks to their fur more often.
I really hope it improves again.

awful
Poorest litter I have used for my Persian. I think to call this a clumping litter is wrong. It just looks like a sloppy mess and as you try and remove it from the litter tray it falls apart falling back into the tray in tiny pieces. Will not be buying this again.

Super Gold
The best litter, absolutely! And I’ve tested sooo many. With two long-haired cats and one with medium-length hair who frequently uses the litter box, the flat still stays clean. Occasionally, there are 4 or 5 clumps lying around, but they’re easy to pick up. Plus, this litter is ultimately cheaper than the others because it really lasts a looong time. One filling (well-filled) lasts up to 4 weeks. I’m finally completely satisfied, and the testing is over!

Not exactly cheap, but good
We've been using this litter for our two tomcats for almost a year now. It binds odours well, and the absorbency is good.
Lately, though, there's been quite a lot of "small bits" in it, which makes the whole thing a bit dusty in the end.
We'll still stick with this cat litter, as none of the others have been viable alternatives for us so far.

Quality has been pretty poor lately
On my last order, I received two bags full of poor quality. The pellet size was nowhere near what it usually is. One of the bags was more like "Eco Plus" in terms of pellet size. Because of the lower quality, the litter now sticks more to the paws.
If I get something like this again, I’ll probably have to make a complaint.

Inconsistent quality
We've been using this litter for many years and were always satisfied, but the last few bags have been a disaster. The litter sticks to the paws and fur – something it never used to do. As a result, it's scattered all over the flat – and with six cats, that's a lot of mess.
Such a shame. I hope the next bags will be of higher quality again; otherwise, I'll have to start looking for a good litter that doesn't stick so much to their paws.

Excellent
I've been using this litter for years and I'm still satisfied. I haven't found anything better so far. No smell, hardly any crumbs, super efficient.

Not acceptable at all
Based on the numerous positive reviews, I decided to give this litter a try as well. Verdict: Absolutely not. My Maine Coons refuse to use the cat litter box when this litter is inside. Another issue: I use a litter scoop with narrow openings for smaller clumps. Because these pellets are so large, you end up scooping out more litter during cleaning. I'm switching back to Golden Grey.

I would try something else...
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.

Great product
Good clumping, smell control is ok (average). Main plus is that this does not track round the house! Even for short haired cats, this is great. The light colour makes it easy to find the bits to remove and the clumping is good. Overall very good, would give 5 stars if smell control was perfect.

Unfortunately, the quality is now noticeably worse.
After the last order, we are unfortunately disappointed with the quality. When I ordered the small bags some time ago, they were really great pellets with hardly any dust. This time, I ordered a large bag as well as two smaller ones to see if there was any difference. We first filled the litter tray with the large bag, and the pellets in it were mostly small fragments with very few whole pellets – plus, it was noticeably dustier, and the smaller fragments naturally get carried out more easily. Today, we opened the small bags to refill the tray, and to my dismay, I found that they were just as bad as the ones in the large bag, with a lot of dust as well. If the small bags had at least been as good as before, I would have been willing to pay more for them.
We used to use the regular Cat’s Best Öko Plus for years, but eventually stopped because the quality kept declining. After trying many other options, we decided to give Cat’s Best Nature Gold another go and were genuinely impressed again. That makes the disappointment now even greater, and I can’t quite understand why customers can’t expect consistent quality for a product in this price range.
I hope this was just an exception. Otherwise, we’ll unfortunately have to look for something else again. I’ll give it another try.
It’s actually a really great litter that doesn’t get carried out much – provided you have proper pellets (this now resembles more of a regular litter). It clumps well and smells pleasant. Previously, I would have rated it as excellent.
It would be nice if others could confirm that the quality has declined, as that might be the only way to bring about lasting change.

Great!
I think it's really good: my BLH might drag out 3 pellets per toilet visit at most... brilliant! Nothing gets stuck in the fur. The litter itself smells pleasantly of wood (similar to small animal bedding) and does a great job of binding odours. Plus, it doesn't create any dust. I'm only deducting one star because I previously used Öko Plus for my Siamese, which clumps slightly better than this one. Without the comparison, it would have received full marks – the difference between the two is truly minimal.

BEST LITTER EVER
Although this product's advertised for long-haired cats I use it for my two short-hairs. Their litter trays are in a carpeted hallway and tracking has always been a nightmare for me - but not with this stuff! Absolutely no dust so nothing sticks to fur or carpet - and because it's in pellet form anything they do kick out can simply be picked up by hand and chucked back into the tray. I no longer need to vacuum on a daily basis! Absolutely no odour, clumps really well, and it's flushable which is what I'd been looking for because I stay in a 2nd-floor flat. Just be careful with the flushing though, only put a small amount into the loo and leave for a bit before you flush as it swells considerably in water. And don't be discouraged by the price - it may look expensive but lasts for ages - I only need to fully clean and wash their trays every 4 weeks - just top up if I need after removing clumps. Really can't recommend this product highly enough!

There's nothing better.
As a newcomer to cat ownership again, I started searching for a suitable litter. Some packages I tore open and they went straight into the bin. They smelled so awful, while others caused a tickly cough due to the dust. With this one, I was unsure whether it would really neutralise odours. I'm pleasantly surprised – it binds odours and clumps very well.
My Persian mix doesn't track anything around the flat either. Simply recommendable.

opinion
After switching to this litter, I tried out several clumping litters. It felt like a beach in the flat, so I’ve now gone back to this litter—no more beach vibes, just pure relaxation. The clumping isn’t great, but I can live with that since there’s no smell and finally no litter scattered around the flat driving us mad. Plus, it doesn’t create dust. We change the boxes every 14 days (we have two jumbo ones) and manage with 20 litres, so one bag lasts us two weeks. It could probably last longer, but we believe it should be done every two weeks. We have two British Shorthairs—humans are happy, and the cats are too. The best option currently on the market, and we’ve tried plenty!

Superb stuff
Having always used budget litters in the past, they came with odour, dust and tracking that became so hard to tidy properly even with frequent vacuuming. This product was recommended and it is a breath of fresh air literally, keeping smell at bay and virtually no mess- the fact it goes straight in the toilet is an added bonus. Overall a brilliant product!!

SUPER!!!
I am very satisfied with the product. The flat no longer smells. I have two Persians and two litter boxes. Cleaning the litter boxes is relatively quick. No litter around the flat, just a few bits next to the litter boxes.
