  • Fabby - thanks both, will stick to getting more GG then (it better be good!)


    Really glad I can donate what's left - bit p'd off so much got wasted (I hate wasting things) as a whole bag + a bit was used to fill his tray and I emptied at 5 days as couldn't stand it :( BUT there's 2 new bags to take for them:T

    May try the one "odour" one day (not over keen on the "baby powder" scent in the air) , will report.. ;)

    Well been using the GG for a few days and I really don't like it.

    It tracks loads, far more mess everywhere than with the Biokat and it smells awful - I can smell it 2 rooms away. I could never smell the Biokat filled tray when I walked into the room where it is located if the tray was clean, but the GG smell is really strong and I can smell it constantly.

    The baby powder smell when I come down in the morning is overwhelming as the room where the litter tray is has the doors shut overnight.
    I also find it takes longer for the smell of the cat "deposit" to dissipate.
    On the plus side it clumps well and is easy to sweep up.
    I hope they have Biokat back in next time, but I have 4 bags of this to get through first.:(

    No smell again, nice hard clumps inside easy to scoop up.

    I do nto think it tracks but I have a digger at home in the form of Macius the matchstick legs so yes, litter everywhere but I KNOW it is him sigh....

    baby powder smell - not for me. Now I remember why I moved to Biocat (apart from it being cheaper).

    But now I remember why GG is better at clumping so...

    Will order the one without baby powder scent next time as see how we get on ;)
  • mmmmm really undecided now!

    Thanks for the tip GR I think if I do order more GG, I will go for the unscented one!

    However ... they have BC in again *sigh*

    Unfortunately NOT the 2 x 15L ones for £15 ..... but it's the white stuff that I know a lot of people were using

    I've also been recommended Extreme Classic by someone else

    *sigh* when did things like cat litter get so tough!


    Visa cut off date is tomorrow (so can't order anything until Thurs at the earliest and Friday to be absolutely sure) so ... have until then to decide!!!

  • Tracking worries me as I absolutely HATE finding it in bed!

    Don't find BC does it TBH

  • Hmmmm think I'm going to have to try BC because the GG is being tracked everywhere!

    I can't bear it!
    I have a simple philosophy:
    Fill what's empty. Empty what's full. Scratch where it itches.

    re tracking - I still have nightmares after Tigerino :eek:
  • re tracking - I still have nightmares after Tigerino :eek:

    :eek: shhhhhhhh don't mention that word :eek:

    OMG that was absolutely HORRIFIC

    You've made me think now - as there's a bag of that in the emergency bin in the garage (for really dire emergencies such as being snowed in for many weeks!) .....

    Thinking I may actually take that to the rescue and put the male (horrid) BC into the bin for emergencies!

    I really don't think I could ever bring myself to use the T stuff again :rotfl:
