Not the best
The litter does clump but badly as the clumps tend to split into pieces. Also, I sometimes have to scrape it of the bottom of the box as it sticks. It’s as if it let the wee go through right to the bottom of the litter box and then it started clumping. Not great. Plus, the pellets are quite large and trace a lot. Our automatic hoover really struggles to collect all the big particles. Won’t be buying it again.
Good for our ragdoll
We tried many different cat litter but this one worked best for our long fur ragdoll. It took her some time to get used to it though as the pallets are quite big but she is ok with it now. It doess not clamp immediately, it takes 5 to 10 min to clamp. Easy to clean and no smell. We can definitely recommend it

Better ones out there
It clumps OKAY, absolutely nothing special about it, cheap litter does it too and this one is expensive.
It smells a lot even though I clean it every single day and it tracks A LOT, it's all over my bathroom.
For this price, better get another type of litter...
Avoid
This is the worse litter I have ever used. The clumps alfalfa apart and the litter is too big to sufficiently clean property so a lot of litter is lost.

Always damaged
Every time we order kitty litter it is broken in the box and only ever get to use half of it

Excellent cat litter for long-haired cats
My cat is Siberian.Long fur,3 layers, dense undercoat,furry paws.It is really important to have as little dust and as less tracking as possible. The best litter I have ever tried was Applaws but I cannot find it anymore. 2nd best is this one. It does clump fully but only after, say, 15 minutes. If you clean the tray as soon as the cat goes, it will partly fall apart.I use 2 scoops, 1 dense for urine, 1 with larger spaces for poop. I clean the tray at least once a day. The more, the better!

Game Changer - Expensive Though...
We have been using Cats Best Original for 2 years now. Though we loved the outdoor control and clumping of the crushed pellets we were driven crazy by the tracking. With the Small Pellet there is virtually no tracking. It is a game changer if you have issues with litter tracking. Two cons: 1. Odour control is not as effective as the original because the pellets cannot cover as well. Simple solution is to add more pellets to your litter box. 2. It is almost 1.5 times cost of the original product
My go to litter
I like this litter a lot, it’s harder for my girls to spray it out of the boxes and they really like it. There’s no dust or smell from it and the chunky pellets last a reasonable length of time. Not fantastic at odour control but definitely not the worst out there by far. It is a more expensive option but it’s a good product
Very good but the bag was broken when received it...
Really absorb the odor but the bag was broken when I received it which could be improved
Perfect!
We change our kitten litter 2 by month and keep clean every day. It controls the smells very well and it is easy to clean. Clamping is good too.

Really happy!
By far the best litter I've ever tried on Zooplus! Good odour control, clumps well and quite fast too in my opinion. It does track a little but it is also very easy to spot and clean up. Will use this litter from now on :D

Terrible at tracking
This litter clumps occasionally but if you have more than 1 cat, I would advise you to choose something else. It tracks like hell. I find little pieces of the litter everywhere in the house. It is mad how much I have to vacuum daily (multiple times per day in fact). I would not recommend this litter.

Problem solved!
This is the best solution I have discovered till now.

EXCELLENT

Won’t buy again.
I brought a 5kg bag of this litter from a local pet shop to try it out. The odor control was excellent, clumping was good enough also, very gental for my kitchen’s paws pad, and won’t stick on his long fur. So I brought This one. But clumping is bad enough- it does clump, only sometimes. When it doesn’t clump, wet small pieces loose litter everywhere. Until the smell as bad as a box has something gone bad and hasn’t opened for 10 years. I clean his litter box every day or every two days.

Best litter available!
Having three house cats has always been messy, I have used Cat’s Best for years and been happy with it apart from the tracking...it gets everywhere! By the time I’ve hoovered the stairs and turned back round there is more there! Decided to try the smart pellets despite the price difference and I am not disappointed. Tracking is virtually non-exsistent especially as my cats have litter trays that they jump out of so it falls off them. I’m so pleased I changed and won’t be going back!

Not for my cats
Cats used the Cat's Best Original Cat litter and were happy with that, so was I, very good clumpling, great odor control and no waiste.
Thought this one would be better but is so much worse. Clumping is somewhat there and then it´s not - it breaks up into pieces with wet soil mixed with dry pellets surrounding it. Odour control is worse then the original was. Going back to Original and throwing this one away.
Not clumping very well
We have two ragdoll and this is the worst litter we have every used.....our cats did have less litter on the floor BUT it is super difficult to clean since all clumps just fall apart.... take ages to clean. We will never ever buy it again..
Very good product
My Ragdoll cat leaves very little of this litter on the carpet. I have floor cushioning where my cat litter box is located but I do have a piece of carpet in front of the litter box so I don't get litter on the hard floor. It clumps together so is easy to remove, there is no smell from the litter box. I recommend this product, it is economical to use.

Why do they always change a good thing?!
We've used this litter for over a year as it was the one that reduced odour and reduced tracking best. However, they recently changed the formula and now the pellets are smaller, and it doesn't clump quite as well as it used to. Worst of all though, every day I have to clean up all the tracked littler again. We have a rag doll so are limited in the little types we can use. It's so disappointing that they changed the formula. We are ordering a different brand next time. :(

Batch defect or fibre deterioration
I've been using this litter for over 3 years, and this year, 2026, it's the fourth time I've come across 20L bags that don't clump at all and just turn completely crumbly and dusty. As a result, I have to remove double or even triple the amount of litter. Even though it's basically a great litter that I can only recommend, I'm disappointed by the quality issue I've encountered several times this year, which leads to extra costs that really shouldn't happen!

The best!
I switched from clumping litter to pellets a few years ago and never looked back.
Pros: Creates less waste. Doesn’t form that hard-to-clean "mud" in the corners of the box like litter does. The smell of pee is much less noticeable!
Cons: When they poop, the smell is more noticeable. But it’s just a matter of... cleaning.
Similarities: It also clumps.
Differences: It’s better to use a scoop with slightly larger holes so the pellets can pass through.

Sudden drop in quality
After my last order, the litter has changed in both appearance and behaviour. The pellets are thinner and longer, and look drier, which means they don’t work as well with urine and poo. The litter doesn’t clump as well as it used to. The clumps break apart when scooping, and the smell of urine and poo is stronger. It doesn’t hold in the odours as much. Honestly, I’m wondering if I’ll keep using this brand.

Tragedy
The quality of the litter has dropped a lot. It doesn't clump well. The urine goes straight to the bottom of the tray and sticks to it. The clumps break up into small pieces, which makes it hard to pick up the tiny granules during daily cleaning. After two days, you have to change all of it because it smells terrible. I thought I just got a bad batch, but for the past few months, every one has been worse than the last.

Good cat litter
I switched from the regular Cats Best to this litter and I have to say, I don't understand the negative reviews. It mostly clumps well, doesn't smell, doesn't create dust, and hardly spreads around the area. My cats like using it and it's easy to keep the litter boxes clean with it. I’m taking off one point because after longer use it gets a bit crumbly and the clumps fall apart. Still, all in all, it's a good product and I can recommend it.

I'm thrilled
After trying out some cheaper products that created a lot of dust, I am extremely impressed with this product. No dust, my cat doesn’t drag the pellets all over the flat, and she’s happy. Of course, you use more of this than with the cheaper products, but my cat’s health and my own are more important to me. Before, I always had to wear a face mask when cleaning the litter box.

Complete satisfaction
I spent a long time looking for litter that doesn’t create dust because my tomcat takes his time and covers everything thoroughly, which always left dust everywhere, and he used to spread a lot of it around the flat. That’s finally over now. My cat is happy with Best Cats Smart and so am I. It doesn’t create dust, it clumps well, sometimes small bits break off when cleaning but that’s fine, it doesn’t smell, and what he drags out of the litter box is minimal. We’re completely satisfied—after trying many other litters, this is the best!

Very good litter
My cats love it and so do I. There's no smell, hardly anything gets tracked out, and if necessary, you can even flush it down the toilet.

Quality isn't what it used to be
I've been buying these pellets for a long time because they're nice and big and don't create much dust. But in the last few packs, there were loads of small bits and a lot of dust. I definitely ordered the pellets, but you wouldn't really notice that anymore.

Won't be buying again
I've been buying this litter for almost 20 years, and in the early years it was really great. Hardly any dust (there's no such thing as a completely dust-free litter), nice solid pellets, but then it got worse and worse every year and also kept getting more expensive. That's it for me now. In the meantime, there's a great alternative available here on Zooplus as well.

Interesting
Tried a smaller pack for the move (usually I use Original 40l) – it worked pretty well! 20l was just enough for a big box, and we'll see how quickly it gets used up. It definitely packs well, but as a result, you use more than with Original, though there's clearly less dust and spreading.
I can't say yet if I'll order another one or not. The cat likes it, my cat is happy to go in soil outside or in bentonite. Maybe this is nicer for him since it's harder than Original.

Cat litter
Very good litter, I have two cats and there’s no smell. It stays compact, which means I have less litter scattered around the tray.

Quality has deteriorated significantly
I've been using Cat's Best litter for years, but unfortunately the quality has really gone downhill. First with the original (red bag) – it creates a lot of dust, which makes it unusable for a cat with asthma. The pellet version doesn't produce dust, but the clumps fall apart when you try to remove them. This means you end up using a lot more, since you have to fish out all the broken clumps. Plus, the pellets get tracked all the way into the hallway. Once I've finished my last bag, I'll be switching to a different litter.

Pellet litter
Ordered a 20-litre bag but what's shown on the bag is 10kg, which is strange. Unfortunately, my kittens didn't like this litter because they were used to mineral litter.

Not worth it
There's no cat pee smell, but the cats track it all over the flat because it sticks to their fur. The pee falls apart or can be scratched apart really, really easily, so it's not hygienic. Because of this, it's very hard to clean.

Switched from CatsBest Original to pellets
I switched from CatsBest Original to CatsBest Smart Pellets because my 4 Maine Coons would spread the Original all over the house. Also, I find the Original creates a lot of dust. The pellets are spread less around the house, which I like. But it's very expensive.

Very good
I've used this product for several years. I really appreciate that you can flush it down the toilet and that it smells fresh and woody even though it's not perfumed.
