I use this cat litter for many years as it really was the best especially for clumping but very disappointed in the last few months as this litter has stopped clumping like it should I have emailed Cat itself to see what’s happened if there’s been some change in it and will definitely be considering using something else. I have three indoor cats and usually buy, at least two bags a month but on the last note will say zoo plus is fantastic !

Cat litter
I have brought this product for over a year but this last load I have brought is not clumping as it use to it all breaks up. Which is a shame the quality seems to have dropped

drop of quality
used to like this litter a lot - natural, relatively affordable, not dusty. However, I noticed the quality has significantly dropped in my recent orders. It doesn't clump as nicely as before and sometimes clump so loosely that its un-scoop-able. Very disappointed.

Not bad, not great
Thought I would try something different, I usually get Greenwood’s plant fibre green clumping litter, and I much prefer Greenwood’s. This didn’t seem to clump quite as well as the Greenwood’s option, and I found it didn’t disguise the smell as well. Overall, it’s not bad & and it works but is a bit messy. Incase anyone is wondering if to try either!

Okay
Used this litter for ages and liked it, however the price has gone up so much!
It clumps well but does track a fair amount. I changed to the corn litter and am so much happier with it!
Good product but not worth the amount it costs.

Not as good as it used to be
I buy from zoo plus as it used to save me money. This has just jumped up £3 a bag, not worth the money as it tracks a lot more than it used to and sticks to my main coons fur

Mixed review
So I switched from the cats best original as the tracking was becoming awful. This does track less however it doesn't last as long. I have to buy a fresh pack every month whereas the original would be every 2-3 months for the same size bag. It is more expensive too so it has its good and bad points but it does track less than the original which is what I wanted.

Best cat litter, wish they would change back to old formula
Best cat litter we have used. i just wish they would change back to old formula where the pellets were bigger. The litter now causes tracking even with an enclosed litter box and theres a lot of dust in the bag now. Not sure why they changed the formula as a lot of customers feel the same.

Not as good as they used to be
I have used this product for several years now and always found it exceptional - no tracking. The last two bags that I have received the product is not as good - there seems to be a lot of dust and the pellets are smaller, this causes the product to track around the house. Can the manufacturers please explain why they have changed the formula please.

Was brilliant, now average
When I first got this product, it changed everything! The big pellets didn't track, and created big non-dusty clumps.
However the last few months the pellets have got smaller and now I'm finding the clumps are breaking up.
One more chance or I think I'll have to try something else :(

Could be better....
My primary criteria is non tracking and easy disposal. I have been using this product for a year now. I’m mostly happy with it, but the clumping is noticeablely not performing as well as it could. There is too much spreading and wastage. As soon as any pellet comes into contact with any moisture the pellet sticks to it , even if it’s dry . Rather then sticking as a clump, it just spreads wide across the bottom of the tray. Throwing so much away. Which for expensive litter is just not economical

Poor
Not sure why Zooplus are still selling this product. It is clearly inferior quality and the buying team should address otherwise overall custom will be lost

Why have you changed the product !
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.

Not as good as it used to be...... Why?
I have used this litter for a very long time. After having tried many, many different litters, this one was without doubt the best of them all. Pricier than some, much better than the tiny granules of other clumping litters. I have recommended it to so many people. It is with great disappointment that it seems something has changed . Although still good at odour control and tracking , it does not clump anywhere near as well as it used to. Where I used to easily be able to take the clumps out, now it crumbles and you spend ages trying to remove the left over bits. Please whatever you have changed, change it back to how it used to be.... I am almost getting to the point of looking at other litters 😞

Changed
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.

Seems to have changed and is less "clumpy"
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 :(

Ok but not that good.
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.

Not as good as the oeko plus
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.

wouldn't buy again
Like most cat owners, I am on the eternal hunt for the perfect cat litter, this isn't it. I have 4 maine coons with beautiful long coats, fluffy tails, and extremely furry toes, which is obviously why it does stick to their fur, most breeds don't have such furry feet, so not really suitable for this breed in particular, it does track quite badly because of this, but not anywhere near as bad as the plus (my house looked like an explosion in a porridge oat factory!), and it doesn't clump extremely well either, when you try to scoop it out it falls apart and leaves small urine soaked bits still in the box which in turn start to smell, which defeats the purpose of using a clumping litter in the first place. It doesn't last as long as the plus,it doesn't clump as well as the plus and it's more expensive.

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.
