Cat's Best Smart Pellets Cat litter

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.

The product that I got this last time does not clump as before. It now breaks up a lot and uses far more litter than it did. Please revert to original formula as it is now not nearly as good or economical as it was.

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.

Been using for 5 years, selected favourite after much trial and error. However The formula seems to have changed and it is no longer clumping as before. Please change it back!

I have two large cats, one elderly who pees a lot and this is the best litter I have tried so far, it doesn't smell and the last bag I had lasted 4 1/2 weeks. As with the clumping I found it depends on two things, the style of the cat pee (yes there really is one) and how much litter is left in the tray. Both my cats leave different shaped clumps the elderly a cone shape the younger a pancake. If the litter is nearly used it doesn't clump so well so I know its time to change it, easy.

have 2 ragdoll cats. Have used Cats best nature gold for a long while and am happy with it, There is no tracking and contains odours well but it doesn't seem to clump very well. will continue to use it as its the best for no tracking. Has it changed and why?

This is still great for not too much tracking and keeping the smells down, but the pee clumps don't seem to set as well as they used to so it breaks apart and the whole tray ends up with bits of disintegrating damp litter mixed in. This is a real shame as I didn't see me ever changing and now I think I am going to ahve to start searching again :(

Absolutely no smell however it's not as clumping as the reviews make out. If you pick out pee it just crumbles and goes all over the place. Also the pellets are just too big to use a scooper so lots of wasted litter. Would be top notch if it was more clumping.

This definitely the best clumping litter I have ever used. Expensive but worth it.

We have been using cats best for over 10 years now and usually go for the oeko plus; since our new kitten has long fur we thought we give the nature gold a go, but it is not worth the extra money. You will use up more because it does not clump as well and the thicker granulates do not fit though the holes in the scoop. Cats best is great, but the oeko plus is our preferred option.

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.

Have been using this litter for about 3 years and all of a sudden the clumps are not holding together anymore! Just the last few months something seems to have been changed in the formula. Has anybody else noticed same? It's not the same as before at all. Always used to be so easy to remove the clumps but not now, a bit of a nightmare to catch all the bits that fall off, sometimes the clump disintegrates altogether! I'm at a point of starting to look for another litter now. Still gave this 4 starts as it keeps tracking and smells down to a minimum.

This is the best cat litter I have ever used and now always buy it. It is easy to deal with and to dispose (down the toilet). Highly recommended and Zooplus always has it at a good price.

This litter is great overall; the litter itself has a very pleasant smell, does not track very much, masks odours very well and cats love it. However, it does seem impossible to prevent contamination of clean litter with soiled bits falling off the main clump..this is not surprising given the larger pellet size and to expect this litter to clump as efficiently as clay litter would be unreasonable. For this reason I do have to change the whole tray contents every week. For me, tracking and odour masking is a priority so for this purpose, this litter is great (and the cats must like it, obviously). If you want litter that clumps well and you don't mind sweeping up, look somewhere else. I suffer from asthma and this litter does not produce any dust so is good for all of us.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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!!

Especially for long-haired cats, it's an excellent product. Very little tracking. Absorbs moisture well. No litter box smell. Even with 5 cats (multiple trays). I've been using it for years and I'm happy with it.

After years of using silica litter and months of persuading my cats to switch to a more "eco" version, I finally succeeded. The litter is accepted, absorbs well, and dissolves nicely in water (I leave it for 3-5 minutes before flushing). I recommend it!

It comes out of the box on the cats' paws, but you can put a mat down. It doesn't smell, it's only been three weeks and I have two cats and two litter boxes. I like the product.

They were great! But we noticed there are a lot of small pieces and it's sandy. It's a pity really, because now it's all over the floor, which wasn't the case before. Unfortunately, the quality has gotten worse and the price is high.

Fits.

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.

Doesn't create dust, after a long search I finally found the right litter. My asthmatic cat has no more problems because it doesn't produce dust. Some gets carried out, but only very little. Suitable for long-haired cats.

We have two XXL Acaio litter boxes, placed in the old shower in the bathroom. It doesn't make dust, doesn't smell, absorbs well and most importantly – the cats don't track it around on their paws.

Perfect. Works just as it should.

I've been using this cat litter for many years. During this time, the price has skyrocketed and the quality has dropped significantly. On top of that, the quality is inconsistent—sometimes it's better, sometimes worse. For this price, they should really take care of the product's quality.

I've been using this litter for years. I ordered it again two weeks ago, but something has changed – it now looks like cardboard, and even when the cat does its business, it clumps together so much that it's almost impossible to sift with the scoop. If the next bags are like this too, I'll have to try a different litter. It's a shame they've managed to ruin something that was so good.

After 14 years with my Izzy: for us, this is the best cat litter! We've tried a lot and, shocked by the government-induced inflation, saw how everything—especially in the pet sector—suddenly doubled in price! After using ultra litter and 'normal' clumping litter that spreads all over the flat (just one room) and gets stuck between the little toes, these wood pellets are simply THE BEST. Economical, the few little droppings are quickly swept away, no dust syndrome, no residue on the tiles. We're sticking with it!*

Excellent litter, clumping, no smell, economical, very good value for money. My cat loves it.

One of the best cat litters I've ever tried, maybe even the best. It doesn't smell, doesn't spread dust everywhere, lasts a long time, clumps well, and can be flushed down the toilet without any issues. I used to buy only this one, up until a few years ago. Now I only use it in my little mountain house, where I can't keep the litter box on the balcony. The price has shot up over the years to a ridiculous and unsustainable level. What a shame!

My cats are very happy. No more bad smell.

Keeps odour under control and clumps well.

Very good clumping and very little smell.

Warning: 20L (as listed on the website) is actually 10kg (what I received). And if you choose the recommended option, be careful, you end up with 10L, so 5kg. Not very clear. Anyway, apart from that, good product.

I've been using these pellets for many years, but lately the quality is so inconsistent that I sometimes have to check the bag to see if I actually got the right product! There's more dust than pellets, and it doesn't even clump anymore. It's so fine that I can't get the dirty litter out of the cat tray at all. So I end up having to change all the litter again, even though I only just replaced it!
