Better than CBÖP
We’ve always used Cats Best Öko Plus clumping litter until now. We were very satisfied with it, but it was really annoying how it got spread all over the flat, and we had to vacuum several times a day. With this litter, only 3-4 crumbs end up right in front of the toilet. We don’t have to vacuum afterwards anymore, and it clumps perfectly, even after 6 weeks (!) and doesn’t smell at all. We don’t understand the reviews saying it smells or doesn’t clump.

Price high - performance low
I always use clumping litter (1 cat). At first, it clumps quite well, but after a while, it becomes powdery, and there’s always a layer of fine crumbs at the bottom, which of course don’t clump. After two weeks, I had to throw it out completely, and at that price, I find it too expensive. On top of that, the fine crumbs caused some dust, and the smell lingered in the flat. I’ll stick to regular clumping litter instead.

Absolute drop in quality!!!
I've been using this litter for a good five months now, and unfortunately, as with many other litters before, I've come to realise that the quality has significantly declined. At the beginning, the litter was almost dust-free and, compared to the "normal" Cats Best, neither my two long-haired cats nor the two short-haired ones tracked it through the flat. There were always a few crumbs around the litter box, but overall, the rest of the flat remained litter-free.
Nowadays, the litter produces so much dust that there's a fine layer of it on the laminate floor about a metre around the litter box (despite using a covered box with a door!), and it's spread throughout the entire flat. I've had this experience with other litters before – when they first hit the market, they were excellent, but as demand increased, the quality dropped drastically. It seems manufacturers think that once sales figures are good, quality doesn't matter as much anymore, and they start producing inferior products. How else can such differences be explained?
It's really a shame because I'd love to stick with eco-friendly litter, but not under these circumstances – and certainly not at this price for such a small pack! Perhaps manufacturers should consider that they might retain their customers better by maintaining consistent quality!

Unfortunately, not recommended.
I have nine cats, but unfortunately, they are very reluctant to use this cat litter. What’s really unfortunate is that it’s so dusty that my cats end up sneezing, and then they spread it all over the house. From me—or rather, from the cats—not recommended.

Totally thrilled
I am extremely impressed with the product. My little Martini (15 weeks old) is the first tomcat I’ve ever had, so I don’t have any comparisons to other products. But I’m completely satisfied with this one. Cleaning is super easy – just scoop it into the toilet and it’s gone. This saves me the daily trip to the bin. ;-) It’s just a shame that it’s always sold out so quickly, and you have to order large quantities in advance; otherwise, there’s a bit of a wait until the product is available again. But when you do order it, delivery is super fast. Big thumbs up for that!

OK but not great
I was over the moon when I found this litter - one that clumped and could be composted, supposedly didn't track out of the litter box and controlled odours. However, my only real gripe with it is that it does track out of the box, to the point that I have woken up in the morning to find my bed full of litter where one of my cats has climbed under the duvet to keep warm and I am always having to vacuum up litter from around the tray.

Simply brilliant!!!
After a long time of trying different options, our owner has finally found a cat litter that we (Jerry & Lucy) and, most importantly, our owner absolutely love. Many thanks to ZOOPLUS.

Super!
I used to have the regular Cat's Best and it was scattered all over the flat. It was awful. But thanks to the new litter, it stays in the tray. There's nothing lying around the flat anymore.

Cat litter like pellets
Hello, I bought this cat litter for the first time and I'm appalled. It looks like heating pellets. Our cats have no idea what to do with it, hence my poor rating. Now I can just throw this litter in the bin.

ultimate litter
I was searching for the "ultimate" litter for a long time. I spent months letting my five cats test various products and have now settled on this one. No dust, doesn’t get tracked all over the flat, doesn’t smell, clumps brilliantly, easy to dispose of in the toilet, and all my indoor tigers love it. What more could you want? Well, maybe larger packages...

Not really convincing
It scatters less than Cat's Best, but I’m not really a fan of the "clumping behaviour" – it’s also hard to sift. My cats aren’t impressed either and prefer the other litter box. On top of that, the price is very high – hence only 3 stars.

Good idea
I had hoped to finally find the perfect litter. The idea behind it is really great. For our Siberian cat, the litter would have been ideal because he doesn’t dig much. Unfortunately, our second house cat is an extreme digger and spreads everything around before it can properly clump. Moreover, the pellets crumble into dust in no time. At the bottom of the litter box, there’s just a thick layer of dust left, which scatters terribly when cleaning. Since we have a jumbo litter box, a whole bag fits in, which lasts just about a week. Then everything has to be replaced. So, it’s less suitable for cats that dig a lot. It also starts to smell quite quickly. However, when it’s fresh, it does get spread around the house less, which is a big plus, and of course, the eco-friendly aspect is great too. Perhaps it works better in smaller litter boxes.

Super
After almost developing a paranoia about cat litter because CBÖP seemed to be everywhere in my flat, I tried Cat's Best Nature Gold and I'm very satisfied. No litter gets stuck in the fur of my American Curl anymore, it clumps really well, and the kittens like it too. Finally, a litter that delivers!

Very good, but too expensive!
The pellets are much better for my two long-haired cats than the regular Cat's Best. They much prefer digging in it, and it doesn’t spread around the house as easily, which makes me very happy. I think it’s the best cat litter out there, but the price is too high, and it would be more practical to sell it in larger bags!

A blessing for the home..
We have 6 furry friends and have always used CBÖP 40 litres until now, which unfortunately always made the whole flat dirty (we only have parquet and laminate flooring) and have been waiting a long time for something new from Cat's Best. Finally, it's here, and we're thrilled—there are far fewer "crumbs" in the flat. BUT the price is far too expensive, and the packaging is way too small for 6 cats!!!! It clumps very well and is environmentally friendly and safe for our pets, just like all Cat's Best products. But please, please lower the price and make the packaging size 40 litres like the other CB products.
The cats also had no problem adjusting to the slightly larger pellets; on the contrary, they love digging in it even more now :o).

Cat's Best Nature Gold Cat Litter
This litter is the best I’ve ever used for my cat.
I recommend it to all cat owners.
What’s especially great is how easy it is to dispose of via the toilet.

Overall good
The litter is overall good, but there needs to be a lot of it in the cat litter box, otherwise our tomcat doesn’t like it as much.

Super, but...
Unfortunately, it's a bit pricey and only available in a 10-litre pack.
I used to use CBÖP, which my two Maine Coon cats loved to scatter all over the flat. With this litter, I had absolutely no issues. It's a shame it's not available in a more affordable 40-litre pack, as you really get used to having to clean less.
My two little rascals also had absolutely no problems with this litter.
So, best regards to the manufacturer:
Please offer it in a larger pack!

Highly recommended, but ...
I tried this litter because I was looking for one that clumps well, doesn’t stick to the bottom, and doesn’t scatter everywhere. I have to say, the product totally convinced ME—this is the ultimate type of litter for me. But unfortunately, my cats don’t particularly like it, and they all seem to agree on that. With young cats, there are currently nine of them, and ALL of them prefer the conventional litter (in this case, Natusan) when they have the choice. If not, they’ll use the pellets too, but only because they have no other option. They’d rather all use one litter box. My 10-year-old tomcat even pees elsewhere if this is the only litter available—just not in the litter box anymore. Such a shame, as I really think this litter is great. The high price is offset by its economical usage.

Good bedding, but...
I decided to try this litter because I have two Connies, and the CBÖP always gets stuck in their fur. It's really good. It clumps well, doesn't get tangled in the fur, and doesn't create dust. However, I only gave it 4 stars because it's very expensive and only available in small bags. A 40-litre bag would definitely be more suitable for my two little rascals.
