Super odour control
My ratties love it, the toilets are being used much better now and there are hardly any smells :)

Good litter for toilets, but a bit hard
In my opinion, this litter is excellent for toilets (like for my rats, for example), as it binds odours exceptionally well (!). However, it is quite hard and angular, so you’d better not spread it everywhere, but only in the necessary spots.

Well
Although Chipsi Ultra pet bedding absorbs well and is odour-neutralising, it creates an incredible amount of dust!
I've been using it for almost three-quarters of a year now because I thought the price-performance ratio was good, but in the past few weeks, I've noticed more and more that I have to dust practically every 2-3 days because it stirs up so quickly and settles on all my furniture. It's just annoying, and I'm now going to switch to the more expensive cotton bedding and hope it's better.

Suitable for everyday use
It’s a little bit dusty, especially when the pack is almost empty and you’re pouring out the last bit, but that hardly bothers me. The odour control is excellent, though, and it’s definitely part of my standard kit alongside Cat’s Best wood litter or Chipsi maize granules. I don’t find it too expensive either, as it lasts me a long time for my rabbit toilet, which is used by three animals.

Super!
I've been using it for my guinea pigs for a few months now. It does what it promises! No smell and it's absorbent. But I still put a layer of straw on top to make it cosier.

Hard, but odour-binding litter
I use this litter for my rats' toilets – it binds odours excellently. However, I wouldn’t recommend using it as a substrate, as it feels quite like gravel (though naturally a bit softer).
For my purpose, having good litter for the toilets, it’s absolutely recommended!

Simply the best...
What I have found for my rabbits over the past 3 years. The large pellets are lovingly scattered all over the enclosure by my two. I don’t have that problem with the finer bedding here. I always use it in combination with plenty of straw.

Not particularly recommendable
I bought this litter for the rats' litter boxes because the regular wood shavings are too dusty for their noses.
Unfortunately, this litter is not dust-free, and it's not soft as stated on the packaging either. I won't be buying this litter again.
It's too hard for the rats' feet.

I think it's brilliant!
I just bought the litter on a whim and have to say, it didn’t disappoint! There’s not a lot in the pack, but I use it as a top layer (over the wood pellets), and it lasts a good three weeks. I’ll keep buying it and hope they’ll offer larger packages soon :-)

Meh, it's alright...
So, I tried out this bedding to see if it could be an alternative to Chipsi Super. This bedding is more like cat litter than fine granules, which of course makes it more absorbent, but my four guinea pigs didn’t find it all that great from the start. The biggest downside for me was cleaning it, as it’s much more effort compared to other types of bedding, and the good absorbency doesn’t make up for that. Won’t be buying it again...

Simply perfect
I only use this bedding because it's much better than wood shavings.

Exactly as described
I have nothing to complain about :-)
* Doesn't smell right away (odour-binding)
* Absorbs moisture immediately
* No pressure marks
* Can be left for longer
but......
With four animals (2 rabbits/2 guinea pigs)
it's an expensive affair.
Such a shame, I only use it for my four balcony animals
in the cat litter tray...

Super bedding
I’ve ordered this bedding for the third time now and I’m still very satisfied. Unfortunately, Zooplus only offers it in smaller packages, so I always have to order twice. But perhaps the smaller packages are more convenient. Top product, I can only recommend it!

Better than shavings
We used this litter for the first time for our rabbits and were thrilled – no shavings lying around the house, no unpleasant smell, and quick to clean. 5***** deluxe

Alternative to compressed bedding
For years, I always used the compressed wood shavings packs that you first had to crumble, which often made a mess, with shavings getting stuck in the carpet and so on. But with this, there are no crumbs coming out of the cage when going in and out. It’s easier to handle – when cleaning, you just tidy up the dirty spots and add some fresh material. A small downside is that it’s a bit dusty, but the shavings are even dustier.

Best bedding for rabbits
From my point of view, this is absolutely the best bedding for rabbits: After testing numerous options, I’ll only be using this from now on. It’s hardly dusty, highly absorbent, doesn’t stick to paws or fur, and therefore doesn’t get spread all over the flat. Another advantage: droppings and damp spots are very easy to spot, which allows for quick spot cleaning and thus economical use. Brilliant!

You won’t want to try a different litter after using this. I absolutely love it!
After trying over 5 different litters, this is by far the best one for smelly mice (even for male mice!). I tried Chipsi Super, hemp bedding and pellets, but nothing really worked. The cages started smelling within 2-3 days, and some types even triggered my asthma. I also didn’t want to use pine shavings because they can be harmful to their lungs. So I gave this one a go. Although it’s pricey, it really eliminates odours and absorbs moisture. It’s not dusty at all, unlike hemp bedding, which ends up all over the floor and sticks to plastic. The mice are happy, and my lungs are happy too.
Tip: Don’t try to cut corners by mixing this litter with another type. I tried that, and the cage wasn’t as odour-free as it was with pure Chipsi Ultra.

I would buy it again...
The only small downside is that it crumbles like sand when damp. But the guinea pigs don’t smell, and it doesn’t get blown all over the room :)
