Bio-Catolet Light & Hygienic Recycled Paper Granules Cat Litter 12 Liter, Packaging May Vary

Over the years we have tried countless cat litters and all of them have had pros and cons. Often the higher priced ones aren't always worth it and this has become even more the case in the recent past 5 years or so. Previously premium brands of clumping cat litters now track like crazy all over the place when they used to be good. There is little explanation as to why the quality of premium (priced but not quality) clumping cat litters have gone so bad. So I did a little research what makes a wood pellet or wood ground sawdust cat litter clump compared to the non clump equivalents. The only main difference is that the clumping cat litters have a plant based additive such as starch to bind the cat litter together when it gets wet. Not sure the expensive clumping wood based cat litters are priced fairly when this is considered.Prices keep increasing like crazy with inflation but cat litters have been increasing in price beyond what would be expected and years before 2020 even. I was always struggling to find a reasonably priced cat litter and any non owner of cats do think cat owners are mad for paying these high prices for cat litters. Every new brand got expensive as soon as they became popular. Less expensive ones were terrible for moisture retention and management and odour elimination.Thought I would give this a try. I filled up the whole cat litter tray with one 12 litre bag. We have a very large cat litter tray for large size Ragdoll and Maine Coone cats. This means we normally only last up to 5 weeks on a good clumping cat litter such as Greenwoods, it does track badly though so we have been looking for an alternative for a long time.The Catolet (12 litre bag) will last our 4 cats up to 2 weeks before it needs changing. The moisture retention is good considering this isn't clumping and has to try out without removing clumps. The odour elimination seems great and all our cats seem happy with it. It is like other pellet cat litters only lighter in weight and slightly fluffy on the edges. I am very surprised at how good it is at odour elimination. Urine doesn't seem to smell at all but there can be a slight newspaper smell, sort of, which isn't bad. We have used newspaper based cat litters before and they were no way near as good as this one is.If you are happy with a non clumping cat litter that needs emptying more regularly then this is great. It will last 1 to 2 weeks easy for up to 4 large house cats. The pop smells are still there as to be expected with most cat litters but we recommend prompt removal of that where possible. The urine smell isn't a concern at all though. Some cat owners use portable stick on ioniser that sticks on the inside of the cat litter to eliminate odours which uses a sensor to turn on after the cat enters or leaves the box. We may try that in the future but our cats refuse to use a cat flap on the box because they were never trained to use one with their breeder or mum cat. 8/10 for quality and odour reduction and 10/10 for price but if we can get it slightly cheaper then that would be great because it doesn't last as long as a clumping cat litter, though it is still cheaper.

I’ve tried loads of cat litters and was getting odourlick one which is good but as it’s fine sand getting everywhere and very heavy in bin bags etc. this is much cheaper and dies the job fantastic. Keeps odour under control and no tracking bits everywhere! Going get 25litre one next only £16 as I have multiple cats this a godsend

Good litter

This has been the best cat litter I have ever bought. Wish I’d tried it before. 2 adult cats and one kitten. The odour control is amazing, don’t have to use as much litter in each box. Less mess as the cats don’t walk it all over the floor like the clay stuff we used to use. I’m really pleased with this stuff.

when i first saw this product on amazon i thought it was going to be good but it’s not , it does clump which makes it easier to clean however when my cats do poo it doesn’t keep down the smell at all i would rather by the cat sand at tesco because it does keep the smell down this one isn’t worth the money yes the packaging is light which i prefer because i can’t carry that much heavy items , the good thing is that it’s very easy to remove the litter without leaving a huge chunk of mess i just wish it would keep the smell down of their poo, i’ll still use this litter until i finish both packs maybe if they update what they are using in the packaging i’ll buy again but for now i’m going to stick with my local store.

Great value for money and very absorbent. My cat is allergic to dust so this is amazing. Plus it's recycled paper so good for the environment. I wouldn't use any other litter

Love this for my cat. It's soft on her little paw pads 😍 and does a great job of soaking things up. I normally buy this from B&M as it's cheaper than Amazon however they must have lowered the price the other day to match it so I ordered them for delivery instead of B&M. If they keep the price as it is and free delivery to post office etc im happy to keep ordering from here.
