Tigerino Crystals Cat Litter – Classic Sensitive (Unscented)

I have been using this product for years, both XXL and the standard one and always been very happy. However, in the past year I have noticed a dramatic change in quality: it does not absorb the pee and the odour is really bad. Unfortunately I am now going to have to change product. Shame.

My little boy kitty has had a few instance with this litter where the crystals get stuck onto the end of his penis and have to be pulled off, which hurts him. We have to check him every time he uses it. It's also really annoying to have to keep cleaning up the crystals as they get kicked out of the tray, and don't get caught in the tray mat when kitty gets out. The absorption is decent, but we always end up with urine pooling at the bottom of the tray, and it stinks.

Love this cat litter and so does my cat it's cheap and affordable and lasts ages. Will keep 're ordering. Keep providing the product please.

This litter was my first try with silicate litters for my two longhaired cats and it was not a success. The crystals got stuck in their fur, ending up around the flat. One of my cats started to get sneezing fits from this, had never had them before. It's very dusty. This is the main reason I stopped using the product, I was concerned it would end up in her lungs. Also, found that it didn't keep the smell away after a while, and didn't last as long as my usual Cat's Best Smart Pellets.

I used to use the stuff religiously and found it was exceptional at odour control and absorption however when I bought it a few months ago the smell and rate it absorbed urine was horrendous. I put it down to a bad batch and switched to the tigerino clumping clay which was amazing. The problem with the clay is that it tracks around the house and creates other issues and so recently tried the silica gel again but I found the same problems. It seems that tigerino have changed it for the worse

I've nearly always used Nature's Gold clumping litter for my 2 longhaired cats but thought I'd try this litter on special deal. I left one litter tray with Nature's Gold, and put this silica litter in the other one. I have the Modkat litter boxes so needed couple or three bags to fill up enough in the tray. At first only one of the cats would try it, after a day or two. Now she only uses this new litter and the other cat has also started preferring this. Keeps smells down, but is quite dusty.

I wanted to try an alternative to clumping as I was having issues with it sticking to the tray. The trial went well taking two weeks to cut over from clumping. However one of the cats has started urinating outside the box. 3 days after changing the crystals he starts urinating outside. We clean solids out every day and stir the crystals but the smell of urine is extremely strong and there is excessive pooling at the bottom of the tray. Does not last the 2 weeks stated for 2 cats.

The litter itself is a good standard silicate litter. I bought 2 trial bags (3.6l) to test out first. The only issue with the trial bag is it is meant for a small litter tray. It covered mine by 1cm so as soon as they use it, they've kicked the litter out the way and peed on the tray floor. You need at least the 5l bag to cover a standard sized tray and it last more than a couple of days. I've had to use both 3.6l bags in one go (costing more than if I bought one 5l bag!) so not cost effective.

very good litter, absorbs nicely and is easy to clean. lasts for long, doesn't create a lot of dust around. odour control might be improved. sometimes gets moved around on cat's paws...

Very good litter indeed!

I have 2 indoor Ragdoll cats and have been using this litter for over 4 years. It really is the best, so absorbent, no smells and so much cleaner to use than other litters - it also saves you money as you are not having to change it as often as other litters - I can not recommend enough!

Does track- as badly as clay, and still unpleasant to stand on in bare feet! Less dust than clay litter, and much preferred by our cats to the old stuff!

Not dust-free as claimed - actually quite a bit of silicate dust. Some crystals break down into teeny tiny pieces which get everywhere and ingested by cat cleaning paws. Even large crystals stick to cat's paws and track. Not very absorbent - a slick of broken down urine-wet crystals on the bottom of the tray. Makes my cat sneeze. After possible allergy to this causing skin itchiness, scabbing, overgrooming and subsequent vomiting of hair and stomach irritation; switched to Bio-Catolet.

I have 3 litter boxes, 3 cats and a 4 month kitten. I put a bag in each box fortnightly. I would be surprised if one bag would last any cat a month. I use 6 bags a month for 4 cats. That said, I love it. It's not dusty if you don't pour it in from a height. It tracks a little, but better than clay litter. None of my cats bury their poo in this, which doesn't help the smell after a poo but it soon goes. Definitely needs cleaning daily - scoop poo and mix WELL otherwise pee can pool at the bottom.

Having used Bob Martin silica litter and a supermarket one that I suspect was the same in own packaging I discovered Tigerino. It is just as good although I take the bag outdoors and sieve the dust out before putting it in the tray. I also tried Nullodour which was awful, very fine and only lasted a few days whereas Tigerino can last a fair while depending on how many cats and trays you have.

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.

I have been on the eternal search for a cat litter for my 2 Maine Coon boys who seem to be able to spread cat litter around the house with abandon. After reading reviews, I thought I'd give this a try and they absolutely hated it. The problem was that when they stood on it and tried to squat down to wee, it would continually move and in the end they would give up and use the Cats's best Nature Gold I had in the other trays. In the space of a week they used it twice and therefore it was a complete fail in my household. May be better suited to light cats and not large heffalumps!

This is the best silica cat litter I have found. It lasts much longer than the brands I have bought from supermarkets and pet stores and it is very good at combatting litter tray smells. You do need to rake the litter through each day to stop pooling.

This is the best litter I have used in years. I would definitely recommend it.

have been using this for over a month now with 2 cats after using wood pellets for a long time. our cats are house cats and its very important we dont have smells. I just scoop the poop out with a nappy sack and brush any spillage with a dustpan and brush. Only just opened the second bag of 6 that I ordered!! very cost effective also!!

It does a good job of covering up the smell and cuts down on waste since the pee doesn’t clump. Unfortunately, it’s very dusty and the cats aren’t fans of how it feels. Plus, it makes an awful scraping noise when you scoop it with a metal litter box.

This is a fantastic cat litter. It doesn’t stick to their paws, doesn’t irritate them, absorbs moisture well, and if your cat doesn’t like strong smells, you won’t notice any at all. My cat doesn’t mind different scents, so next time I’ll buy litter from the same brand but with a different fragrance. I recommend it to everyone.

Tigerino litter has changed the size of its crystals and its ability to absorb odours. The sand is now ground into a micro powder, which the cats throw everywhere and it definitely smells much worse. I've been ordering this litter for several years and suddenly it arrived with new packaging and unfortunately, the contents had changed too, without any warning. The quality has really gone down for the price.

I started using it because it was very affordable, and after trying it I found its quality comparable, if not better, than other similar products that cost more.

When I clean the litter box, clouds of dust rise up. The poor kitty sneezes when it digs around—this mix is definitely not dust-free...

3 out of 4 cats are happy. It doesn't produce dust.

This isn't the first time I've bought this product, but the quality has gotten worse.

Both cats like this. It's hygienic and odourless. 1 pack lasts 1 week.

First of all, the litter looks nothing like the videos or photos—the grains are big and really hurt, and for the price I paid, I think it’s just unacceptable! Even my own hand hurt, it’s just too much. I’m going to complain to zooplus because this is a scam.

Thank you very much! The parcel came in boxes, which is a big plus for my cat! He's delighted with the boxes and is now playing in them, and the packing material is great. The box arrived safe and sound.

I find the 40% price increase for this litter in just 9 months outrageous. Especially considering the quality and performance have become worse and more inconsistent. With my order in mid-November 2025 (which was delivered at the end of the month), the set of 6 packs cost €27.99, now 6 bags cost €38.99. Absolutely disgusting.

Besides the fact that my entire order was covered in Crystals. It’s more expensive, but less heavy and spreads less around the house. The scent only works for urine and outside the litter box; inside, it just smells bad. And you notice the smell of faeces much more than with pellets. Removing the yellow crystals is almost impossible, so the smell stays. With pellets, it’s easier to keep the box clean. If they were really much cheaper, I’d consider it, but with my three cats, it doesn’t add any value for me, especially since I have to pay more for it.

I used to be happy with this cat litter, but with a recent order, I noticed the packaging colour was different. Same product name, same packaging elements, but the contents are no longer the same. The granules are huge and look like bits of glass—very disappointing and especially painful if you accidentally step on them. They also seem to end up outside the tray more often now.

A litter that is perfectly satisfying: no dust, no smell, easy to maintain and lasts a month. And on top of that, it's inexpensive. I have two indoor cats and therefore two litter boxes. I'm no longer bothered by the smell of urine or faeces, there's no more dust around the boxes, and by stirring regularly and removing the waste every other day, the litter lasts for 4 weeks.

I really wasn’t expecting the grains to be so big and "sharp". Of course, they don’t cut my cats’ paw pads, but I can see they walk on them very slowly. As for odour absorption, it’s not bad but not amazing either, especially when it comes to their faeces. Why? Because my cats don’t cover them up like they usually do. I imagine it’s because they don’t like handling such large grains. And the urine isn’t completely absorbed—that’s just not true.

Good product. The best cat litter for our household.

When they dig to cover their needs or when I clean up with the scoop, a lot of dust gets kicked up, and many times the smell would linger on their fur for a few hours. For number two, the smell still hangs around the room, just a bit different—not necessarily better. Personally, I didn't like it.

Many comments say there’s no smell, but the opposite is true. After just a few days, it reeks strongly of urine, not to mention the faeces. It sticks to the cats’ paws and even to human skin, it gets all over the flat, and when you step on it, it crumbles. It’s also very noisy when the cats are digging in it.

For our two cats, it's really perfect—we change it every month with two trays and two cats who go outside a lot (in winter they go out much less, so it'll be more like every 3 weeks). It soaks up the urine and dries out the poo if we're not around to scoop it right away!
