Yup GR that one

It did come back in ..... very briefly tho':(

Obviously everyone who used the other one panicking and buying it before it disappears too!

I quite like the look of the GG (not opened yet) BUT 14kg is quite a lot less than 14L in the Biokats so it's still unfortunately more expensive (even if having to fork out for the £20 BK rather than the one that was around £15)

I may try to get some of the fresh stuff if it comes in again (it let me do a "product back in stock" email notification thing so fingers crossed)

The GG can go into the emergency winter store - more than happy to give the horrid BK to the rescue!

RFTA - remember that although the bag seems small, I never noticed any difference in "usage" between the 2 brands.

As I said before, with 4 cats I was going through 2 bags of GG or 2 bags of Biocat, same.

See hoe you go

13th October. Opened new bag of GG, spread whole bag between 2 massive trays (my cats are good like that, sharing trays).

Have not used GG for ages, a bag of Biocat was lasting me 10 days with current 6 cats so will see. Same bag of Biocat was lasting me 2 weeks 914 days) with my 4 boys alone but with the girls 10 days.

If GG lasts 10 days - will be great.

How is everyone else doing with GG?

I started using GG today.......my eldest kitten thinks it's something to play in. He spends ages swatting all the litter out on to the floor

:mad: I'm sure using the closed litter tray again will solve this though.

I like the scent and the clumping but I'm not sure I like that it gets walked out onto the floor with the kitties.

I'm still on the Biokats (complete change last week)

Not sure whether to let it run down or top up with GG when I need to

TBH might try the top up as I've not really anything to lose (if I try just a little bit) as I'd end up having to bin all the BC if I can't which seems a huge waste

I'm loving it. Even though the bags are smaller it seems to be lasting around the same length of time. Both cats are happy using it and it's a lot easier to clean out as the wee's stay in one large clump where as the biokat used to break up sometimes.

Does seem to track a little more but that's partly down to Gitmo standing in the litter tray the wrong way so he kicks some of it out. I've put a runner down that I got from the market for £10 which seems to catch most of it.

Lisajane which one did you get

The Master one same as GR?

Having a HUGE debate now - see that horrid weather's forecast for November :eek: so wanting to get an extra supply in now (would usually wait another month or so before ordering but ....) & they've got the Biokats Micro Fresh back in (the white one) so now don't know which to get:o

Ohhh - I got refunded for the horrid BC male stuff (that I've agreed with Zoo+ that I can donate to my local cat rescue :T - sure they won't mind!)

OK - have used it before but not for a longgg time.

came home today after all day at work and.. no smell - wohoooooooooooo

Lots of ermmm deposits but no stink.

So I guess GG beats Biocat here.

Also, yes it froms harder lumps and does not break (just do not try to take the "deposits" out too soon. So again - beats Biocat.

We are staying with GG

I did order the master as recommended by GR. That's brilliant that you can donate it, I bet they'll be over the moon.
