Best cheap cat litter?

Angelicdevil

OK so, I'm due another supply of cat litter.

I like the GG, in terms of how long it lasts, how good it is at clumping and it's scent.

However, I don't like the tracking.....

I recall either gettingready or rising mentioning that BioKat doesn't track as much and seems to be comparable to GG.

I was going to go for BioKat male.........will I be making a mistake? Is there something better for around the same price?

Rising used the "male" one and hated it from what I remember....

This is the one we have been using and loving

Ah OK, thanks! Roughly how long does it last for you?

Who thought cat litter could be such a minefield?!

gettingready

Me?

I get it for the cats... LOL

1 bag BK lasted 2 full weeks with 4 cats.
1 bag GG lasted 2 weeks with 6 cats.

Oh lord - don't get the male one :eek: it was absolutely AWFUL

I have written a negative review - which hasn't been posted :mad: (and I have complained to Zoo+ about that as what's the point in having reviews if they only post the good ones!)


I'm having the same debate TBH as will need to do a new order soon (and have a 5% off code due to end soon) as I tend to try to over-stock this time of year to ensure I've got plenty as often have a few weeks where we can't get deliveries

Both - good clumping, nice sized granules, very economical to use (once my bloomin' enormous trays are filled ) I only need to do a full change at the 6 - 8 week mark & the cats love it!

GG - I love the smell and clumping is probably slighter better :T BUT tracking is def worse It's been in Mia's room since last Sat and I am finding it all over the room

So .... as I absolutely LOATHE finding bits of litter anywhere ..... this lot will def by BK (the one GR linked to - fab value:T)

ETA and I might just have to include a pink and blue scoop!

Haha GR that will teach me to write and run!

Ahhh brilliant! Thank you both!

I have ordered the one GR linked to.

Zoo+ have a discount offer/savings plan at the moment - pay £1.90 and save 3% on every order for a year or pay £3.90 and save 3% on ever order for 3 years......with my average spend on that site I'd be saving around £20 a year.

ETA - found it!

Saved £2.08 with this order (plus another 5% with the coupon I had, plus 5% cashback!) so it will quickly pay for itself!

I paid for the savings plan last year and save 5%. If I get the option to renew it I will as I've saved a small fortune.

I've been using the GG for around a month now. The tracking for us isn't much worse than the bio as gizmo uses the tray backwards so kicks a little out anyway (cats have a high sided and a covered tray but he still kicks it out). Should get the full 2 months from it.

Like the big scoop. Our large one got broke (hubby managed to snap the handle in the door where the cat stuff is kept) so might stick one on our next order.

gettingready

I got the 5% discount on all orders too.....

Uffff

The scoop is MASSIVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE but great hahahah
