AI-generated summary based on reviews added by customers
This cat litter has its fans, with some praising its clumping ability and odor control. However, many users found it tracks all over the house, sticking to paws and requiring constant cleaning. Some cats even refused to use it, and others noted a change in formula making it messy and hard to clean. Despite this, a few still appreciate its eco-friendly nature and long-lasting qualities.

Amazing 🤩
I can’t get over how good this cat litter is there is literally no smell of urine even when scooping. No smell of poop “only when scooping” it’s so hygienic and nice and soft and the clumps are perfectly formed. Just brilliant and the best thing is it’s biodegradable and Compostable thank you Cats best.

Best Cat Litter Available
I've looked after cats for over 40 years and this is the best cat litter I've used. It's economical and seems to mask smells well. If the litter tray is cleared of lumps fairly promptly it won't need completely changing and cleaning for easily the 7 weeks claimed. There are a few grains that get stuck to paws and get out of the litter tray, but a litter tray mat tames them well. Don't be afraid of the price, this cat litter lasts very well.

Too much batch variation
My cats like this because it's light and easy to dig in, and it doesn't hurt their paws, or get stuck really.
I like it much better than sticky clay litter, but the 3 stars are because I agree with other reviewers who say it has disimproved - more dust, smaller particles and less coverage, therefore more odour throughout the house after use.

Favourite product for my cats but package is always coming damaged
Great product , cats are happy with this cat litter and are using with any problems. But the package is not useful. I am always getting broken package where cat litter is spread all over the cardboard and any different items which are inside the box.

low dust but easy spread
Good product, it absorbs pee well but easy spreads at home.
kitten is okay with it
i got it for free and has been using it for a month for my 1 month kitten. it clumps well and mask the urine smell. but not for the feces smell. the small particles stuck to my kitten feet and got all over the house.

Worth the money
I have 2 cats and have tried all types and brands of litter cats best is the absolute best it seems to mask the strong odour that I got from other brands.the huge 30kg bag has lasted 8 weeks with 2 cats using it. I highly recommend this product

Truly the worst ever
Bought this because I couldn't get 'universal '. When wet it cakes itself to the bottom of the tray (universal just tips out) and requires scraping off. Like all cat litter it gets between their toes and spread on the floor, but this gets everywhere and travels from the utility room to just about every corner of the house. Definitely more hassle than it's worth.

Cat litter
The best of bests. Using for many years. Tried pellets they not worth it.

Not as good as the reviews stated
Wanted to try something new, so I read some external reviews. Product disapointed, not sticking enough together and a nasty smell in no time. Nope...
Not suitable for long hair cats
The product itself works well: it absorbs the liquid and keeps the smell. But it is not for long-haired cats. It catches the long hair of my cat and sticks to it. As result, the particles (including the one with poo) is all over the house.

Not as good as the old version
This used to be great. I'm not sure if they've changed the formulation (grains look smaller than before) but the recent batch gives really bad tracking. You find pieces of litter everywhere just after one use - floor, sofa, table, you name it! It also turns into dust very quickly. I hope these slightly negative reviews can bring back the old version.
Used to be good
I have used this litter for years and loved it. Somehow since last year, it has not been the same. Bad tracking and dusty. Clumping not as good as it used to be either. Not quite sure what happened.

Overall good
I am happy with the overall result of this litter.
It is eco friendly and and the clumping and odor control was good. (Although not as good as bentonite litters).
It was not dusty and I would say the only downside is the tracking - but hey, I have a cat so that's part of the deal :-)
Best of the best
Kills smell perfectly, can easy clean everything
Will have to find another litter
I have been ordering this for a long time because I was totally convinced. The odours were locked in and the clumping mechanism worked great. But this has changed in recent times. It doesn't clump up properly and there are always some bits of unfinished business left. You have to use more and more litter to keep everything eat and tidy. At this price point I am really not convinced anymore. It's very expensive for my four cats.

Just terrible
It won't clump!! I don't understand these reviews. Thank God I was able to find another litter on this site. This one was really awful. The litter box started stinking after just a few days and had to be urgently cleaned. My poor cat didn't like it. The Tigerino one (with fine litter) is great!

Transition unsuccessful
We wanted to make the switch for environmental reasons but it was a disaster. Our cat started peeing next to the litter box. The litter is very sharp and our cat didn't like it at all. We were lured in by the offer. Now we have a huge bag of it and had to get our old litter back.

Not economical!
Same opinion for Cat's Best Original and Greenwoods plant fibre since they're basically the same litter.
- Not economical at all! The bin fills up in 1.5 days instead of 3 with Biokat Organic Fibre Wood
- Lots of dust/powder after... 2 days! (Not recommended for asthmatic cats)
- Stays "dirty". The broken pellets are so big it's impossible to remove everything that's soiled...
- Not much litter outside the tray, that's true, but it's replaced by dust... which is even worse.

I do not recommend
We had been using it for years, but recently the quality has dropped and we had to look for something else. It spreads a lot, doesn't clump well, and starts to smell bad quickly. Unfortunately.

After more than 10 years of loyal loyalty: Thanks for the good times, but that's it.
For over ten years, Cat’s Best Original and I were a well-oiled team. For years, I would have sworn by this litter – but what’s been coming out of the bags lately sadly has little in common with the original from back in the day.
Instead of the usual top performance, the clumps now fall apart just by looking at them. The absorbency...

Light throughout the whole house
After years of using Benek Corn, I thought I'd give this another try. Well, I sure found out. We were away on holiday for a week. My regular cat sitter immediately told me that the clumps with urine fall apart straight away and are really hard to scoop.
On top of that, I'm really glad I had robot vacuum cleaners running daily both upstairs and downstairs. Both are completely full of granules. Even in the attic, the stuff is everywhere. And our litter boxes are downstairs... Awful stuff. Back to Benek!

I've tried 5 different types of natural "bedding" for my bunny's whole cage, since he doesn't care what he uses for his toilet. This one suits us best 🙂

It got worse
I don’t know what happened to this cat litter. I’ve been ordering it for 8 years, but the last few orders just aren’t the same as before. It doesn’t clump as well as it used to, the clumps fall apart. I thought maybe it was just one bad batch, but unfortunately it’s happened several times now and it’s still the same problem. I think I’ll go back to Corn Car. That one clumps much better, even though it’s dustier.

Cat litter
Overall, it's a decent cat litter, but I wanted one that doesn't create dust, and this one is advertised as being almost dust-free. I actually find it quite dusty and not so good for cats.

Super litter + compostable!
We've been using Cat's Best as litter for our cats and kittens for 14 years now. We're also using it in our automatic litter boxes these days, and it all works brilliantly. The litter is perfectly safe for the kittens too, since it's completely natural. It clumps well and is easy to dispose of. Some packs are a bit finer and can be a bit dusty, but that's only the odd bag. We're happy with it overall.

Very economical, doesn't trap odours and cats don't like it on their paws
Much more economical than bentonite litter. With diarrhoea, it could have been hidden under less than 20 litres and it still would have stunk. Generally an unpleasant smell, and if you have to change all the litter so often, it's not really economical or cheaper than others. Biggest negative: the cats don't like it at all. Even my expert digger tends to run away. With my long-haired cat, the litter always got stuck in her fur, very uncomfortable. I could flush the poo down the toilet, which was practical. The litter spreads around the flat...

Loved it for years, but sadly that's changed now
I've been using this for years. Yes, it does scatter, but that's the case with any other litter too. Still, it seems like something has changed in the formula lately. It doesn't clump nearly as well, so the whole tray gets 'contaminated', turns dark, and starts to smell quickly. I scoop several times a day, and I used to have to completely change the tray much less often. I could just keep topping it up because it clumped so nicely. It's a real shame because I haven't found an alternative yet!
