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.

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

Careful with measurements
40 litres is actually 17,2kgs and so on.
Website should put the description really clear.
Excellent all-round eco-friendly litter but lots of tracking
I purchased this product because I was looking for an eco-friendly litter and this one had excellent reviews. I have tried several other variations of non-clay litters including Sanicat Corn Clumping Cat litter and World's Best (neither of which were great). This one has EXCELLENT oder control, better than any other litter I have used. However, the one downside is that it does track everywhere (although tracking is better than Sanicat). Otherwise, this is an excellent eco-friendly option.
Amazing
Absolutely fantastic! Easy to clean and great quality.

Doesn't clump and tracks everywhere
This litter forms very loose clumps which crumble apart if you're not careful. It's also very dusty and tracks everywhere. My cat which loves to dig comes out of the litter box all dusty, which doesn't happen with the smart pellet litter I use in the other tray. At least it doesn't smell.

Makes it easy to clean the litter box
I located the cat litter in the bathroom, and this product is convenient because it allows me to throw the stool in the toilet (for the weekly change, I throw it in the garbage).
It is very comfortable to remove the poop; because of the pee "wet balls" been formed often so I remove them daily.
The huge benefit of this litter is that I can drain it in the toilet, so as to get rid of odors quickly.
It's is also very light, also! I don't struggle as I did with normal sand.

Used to be brilliant, now useless
This cat litter WAS fantastic. The most recent bag was quite different - much larger pellets which I initially thought would be great as less likely to track out of the litter box. The problem is the product does not clump AT ALL any longer. It just dissolves into sawdust which then contaminates the rest of the litter. It also smells, which it never did before. Won't be buying again, particularly as I emailed the manufacturer to see if I had just got a faulty batch and they didn't even reply.

What does it weigh?
I've used this litter for some time now; I have 2 Maine Coons so long haired and altho it tracks a little mostly when they cover up and some goes outside the tray but it doesn't get caught in their coats I find there is very little wastage; when you lift out the clumps. My problem is - I order 20 litres and get 8.5 kilos I really don't understand this; I checked on line kilos to litres and it tells me 1 litre = 1 kilo

New Recipe is inferior to the original
this was a 5 star product until they changed to a new receipe.
the new receipe tends to go way to dusty and appears smaller which makes cleaning much harder.
their other product the pellet version we tried but is also a new receipe and is thinner and doesn't clump at all.
I don't normally write reviews but I feel so disappointed.
Does not do a job anymore.
Ordered litter as usual, the last order I have noticed some changes to the product structure but it was nothing major. This time, unfortunately it does not clump !! It sticks together like hard paddle. Also pellets or how to name it with this products are bigger so maybe that is one of the reason? I'm not happy at all and still one big bag has left .

The best
Just the best. It smells fresh until the full change and even then its not a horrible smell. It does track, but all cat litters do.One 20l bag lasts my 2indoors about a month if not more. The urine doesn't seep to the bottom like other litters do. I can be safe thinking about my cats' nose/lungs. One of my cat is asthmatic and using this litter has been one of the things that has helped to improve her breathing. Yes, its the best.

No more sneezing!!!
My beautiful Maxy has serious allergy issues. I rescued her from Cyprus as a kitten. She was found in a box with 3 other of her siblings that sadly had passed away from a horrible feline disease but my Maxy was a survivor. She had such advanced disease that she lost her eyes. She now suffers from serious allergies and almost every kind of litter makes her congested but FINALLY I have found a litter that works for her. No more sneezy kitty!!!

I don't recommend it
I’m really disappointed with this product. This litter sticks to my cat’s paws and I end up with bits all over the house, and unfortunately, some of those bits have clumped faeces too! The litter is too fine, so it’s very messy. If you’re looking for a clean and easy-to-clean litter, don’t go for this one.
I bought it because it’s supposed to be flushable, but the clumps are so compact that I doubt it actually works.

More and more dust, and it clumps less and less
It's a shame how the quality has gone downhill. After just a week, there's already loads of dust in the litter box. My cat, who's black, comes out brown, and I have to sift the litter as a quick fix so it affects him as little as possible. It clumps much worse than before and you end up with little bits scattered everywhere. I guess if you have a good scoop, that doesn't matter as much.
I'm looking for alternatives now. Like I said, it's a real shame.

Really great litter
We are extremely happy with this litter. It absorbs odours well, clumps sufficiently, and above all, it doesn’t create much dust. One of our two tomcats is very sensitive to dust.
Yes, when cleaning later on, you have to be careful not to shake the pee clumps too much so they don’t fall apart. For us, that’s absolutely manageable. We’ve tried a lot of different litters and this one is a minor issue for us.

Terrible, equipment changed
I completely agree with all the other negative reviews. The formula has been totally changed. Before, the pellets were very fine and soft; now, they're just fragmented wood pellets, which makes them extremely sharp and hard. My poor cat, who usually accepts any kind of litter, was really unsettled and initially refused to use it. Plus, since the pellets are so big, they don't go through the scoop very well. I'm going to ask for a refund.

Clumps well if you use enough
Unfortunately, in my experience, it does get dusty, but I've definitely had much worse litter before. If you make the layer thick enough, it clumps well and I can scoop out small urine balls. The little ones do spread quite a lot of it around after leaving the litter box, but maybe that'll get better as the cats get bigger.

Excellent product
It absorbs pee really well and forms a nice clump.
It also does a great job with odours.
Excellent product.

No dust at all
I love this litter, and so do my pets. There's hardly any dust, but I've noticed that when I buy the same amount split into two bags, it's sandier and creates more dust.

Everything's fine
After reading the reviews, I went with another brand, but I came back and it turned out the reviews were lying. It clumps nicely, the cats like it, there are no problems with it, it doesn’t create dust, and it doesn’t hurt their paws.

Lower quality
I've been using this litter for 4 years, and it was the best quality-wise. I never even tried to compare the price because it suited my needs perfectly.
But the last two bags just aren't the same, it doesn't clump anymore, the litter just spreads everywhere. I'll give it another month, but unfortunately I'll have to give it up.
I have 5 cats -> 3 litter boxes, and cleaning has become more tiring and less efficient.

I'm disappointed with the cat litter
Hello, I've been using this cat litter for over 14 years. Since my last order, I'm really disappointed. The clumps are soaked all the way to the bottom. The clumps are way bigger than I've ever seen before. Obviously, a lot more litter is needed now. Has the product been changed or is it a production error with this batch?

Terrible
I've been using it for a long time, but lately it's gotten worse and worse. It creates a lot of dust, and the litter itself falls apart. I won't buy it again. Very disappointed, the same thing happens with the food—it crumbles. I'm thinking about buying elsewhere. The quality leaves a lot to be desired.

Terrible!
What a terrible cat litter! It's incredibly dusty! My cat comes out of the litter box short of breath and coughing. The whole house is covered in a white haze. Whenever I scoop the box, a cloud of dust hangs in the air. I've tried many types of litter, but this one is by far the worst.

Worsened quality
The granules have changed to being large and sharp, so my cats no longer like using the litter tray filled with this litter. Even when a person steps on it, you feel a lot of discomfort, let alone a cat’s paws. It's a shame, because it used to be great.

Has gotten very bad
I've been using this litter for almost 10 years, but the last 3 batches have been a disaster. It smells terrible. I even contacted Cats Best to ask why, but they just said they hadn't changed anything. It's a shame they don't take this seriously.

Totally gone downhill
I've been using this cat litter since 2020, basically since I got my cats. It was recommended to me and I was absolutely thrilled with it. But for several weeks/months now, I've noticed that it doesn't clump well at all, and the worst part for me is that it starts to smell unpleasant really quickly!! I never had this problem with the litter before. Such a shame, because it's really hard to find a new good litter.

Very practical, my cats like it
It's really practical for cleaning, since you can put the clumped pee straight into the toilet. After a few minutes, the pee dries and forms a ball, making it easy to remove. My two cats use it without any issues.
