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.

Such good cat litter, no dust off of this, hardly any mess. Doesn't get stuck in my kitty's toe beans. Soft it on the paws and odour control very good. Id say much better than any gritty litter. Always gonna buy this now.

My cat really likes the Bio-Catolet Light & Hygienic Recycled Paper litter. It holds up pretty well, is very absorbent, and comes in a nice-sized bag—I usually get three refills out of it for a larger tray. It’s not sticky like some other litters, and my cat seems to enjoy it. Plus, there’s no dust going up his nose, which is a huge bonus! The fact that it’s biodegradable makes it even better. Overall, it’s a great option for anyone looking for an eco-friendly, dust-free litter that works well and offers good value.

The Light & Hygienic Recycled Paper Granules Cat Litter could be the thrift-shop gem of the cat world.💎It's kind on the wallet and the planet, but when it comes to stealthily masking those feline fragrances, it's about as subtle as a cat in a tutu.🌿Great for the eco-warrior cat owner who doesn't mind a bit of 'au naturel' aroma in the air!🤣😂

5.0 out of 5 stars Best I’ve tried

Having tried several types of cat litter this is the one I keep repurchasing. I’ve tried standard clay, and I’ve tried corn. Out of those two it’s the best for smell control, spot cleaning, mess, weight, and value.It’s very lightweight and easy to scoop out the used spots. It doesn’t clump the same as clumping litter, but you can easily see the used spots as the soaked litter is darker in colour.Another thing to bear in mind is that it may take a while for your cat to get used to the consistency, as it is a very different feel to traditional cat litter. Personally my cats transitioned fine.Compared to other types of cat litter it doesn’t track any sort of dust (so nothing for the cat to inhale). It’s also probably the best option for the environment - as it’s made of simply recycled paper.Overall, don’t bother with other types of litter - go for this one!
