5 Luna  · Best litter found – Absolutely no tracking, no odour, fantastic clumping ability, economical as no wastage. Bag lasts forever. Happy cats. Happy owner
5 dave.  · Best – Simply amazing. Mutiple cat owners, look no further. Low tracking, amazing odour control and clumps like no litter you have ever seen.
5 Figgy  · Wonderful – Our kitty cat has used many brands. Wee Kitty is just the job. Keeps my paws clean and dry. Never smells. Breaks down easily in the garden.
5 Miaow  · Love it! – I just love how the product can be flushed away, so convenient, quick and easy to freshen up the tray, scoop it straight down the loo.

Great for smell...but dust is a serious issue – We use to use crystals (great for odour control) but wanting to be more environmentally & cat friendly we were trying different litters. We tried a walnut based one but the dark granules looked awful tracking across the pale floor. This corn based litter, although dusty (when pouring and litter tray cleaning) has been great for odour control and… Read more

we’ve been using it for a while. Although it does track a little, it’s not as much as the walnut one and doesn’t hurt like the crystals. Yesterday we adopted a 2nd cat and while sitting in the room with her she used the litter tray, hopped out and started a coughing fit. All of a sudden (lightbulb moment), we realised this has been the issue for our first cat. She has been having coughing fits (assumed by us and the vet to be allergies) that has only cropped up in the past 9months. I’m now on the hunt for yet another type of genuinely dust free litter.

Terrible litter – The only good thing about this litter is it stays in the tray. It doesn't stay together when soiled to scoop it out, it falls apart and does nothing to contain smell. Honestly home-brand clumping litter from the supermarket is better than this! Show details

Disappointed – Purchased this product as I was looking for a good quality natural clumping litter. This product is marketed as natural and no where on the packaging does it say the litter is scented. When I opened the bag it had a very strong fragrance smell. Not only that but I can even smell the fragrance whilst walking around my house. I did not want to… Read more

purchase a scented litter as I don’t want the strong smell to effect my cats. I’ve looked on their website at the ingredients, and indeed the litter contains fragrance. Disappointed as I wouldn’t have purchased it if I had known it was scented.

Best Litter Ever – I have used pine pellet litter for years as I am a breeder so have lots of cats. I always thought they were the best for odour control and cost effectiveness. I changed to this litter when someone brought it into my boarding cattery. Its fantastic. I sue a 9kg bag in a month for 3 litter trays and 3 large breed cats. Highly recommended. Will never use anything else Show details

Not as good as I thought – Lasts longer than the old crystal litter I was using, less dusty than the crystals and less overall tracking than the crystals, but: The clumps breakup very easily leaving lots of little urine bits behind. My biggest disappointment is the odour. As painful as the crystals were, the odour control was much better than the corn litter. The smell is… Read more

quite putrid with the corn litter. My laundry stinks constantly (and I clean the tray daily). Looking for a different product now.

Not what I hoped for :( – The litter is great for urine and clumps well, but when it comes to poop, the litter does not mask the smell at all. I've had no issues with other litter in regards to odour but this was terrible. Dust and tracking was bad also. I returned the unused portion back to Pet Stock and they happily refunded my money with a genuine apology. Show details

Used to be great – I used to love this litter. Was the greatest litter I ever had. Over the last 4 ish months, I've noticed that the litter no longer clumps like it used to and continues to get worse. I'm very good at cleaning the litter box because I like to keep it clean and virtually smell free however it's become a huge task now. Rufus & Coco Wee Kitty Clumping… Read more

Corn Litter used to clump really well and hold in odors but now I've seen clumps easily disintegrate and break down when you try to scoop it. This then leaves small urine clumps and dust all in the litter box. I feel as if I'm wasting my money because half or the majority of the litter poured into the litter box turns to dust after a week or so! I tried the Eco-friendly version a long time ago and at the time its clumping was slightly better but the odor control was not the same. So, I went back to my original Rufus & Coco Wee Kitty Clumping Corn Litter... I used to love this litter. The dust makes the litter harder to keep clean and therefore, increasing smells. This means I need to dispose of the litter way sooner than I used to have to and purchase more bags. I'm now considering changing to a completely different brand because of the stink and tracking that comes with the dust and the frustrating breakdown of clumps.

My positive comment at the moment is that it's super easy to flush.

I'm hoping one day Rufus & Coco will go back to their original formula (from around 6-12 months ago) but for now, I'm going to have to experiment with other litters.

Normally non-fussy cat hates it - very bad smell – I have tried clay and silica litters, and decided to try this one as it is marketed to be a more sustainable organic option. I've had many issues since switching - I often find pellets tracked outside of the box, and my cat has been reluctant to use it (I've gradually switched over by mixing it in with her old litter). Worst of all is the smell -… Read more

we scoop twice a day, and the ammonia smell persists throughout the entire house.

For a product that costs up to 5x as much as clay litter, this does not last as long as I had hoped as it requires so much scooping to keep the smell at bay.

Smelliest litter we have tried! (And we’ve tried a lot!) – Have tried various cat litter types and brands (our cat isn’t fussy thankfully) and this sadly was one of the worst. I had to give it a go from the numerous positive reviews but felt let down :( The clumping was okay, tracking was average (larger but very lightweight), a bit dusty, but worst of all… the pellets (although the odour is relatively… Read more

pleasant when brand new) somehow reacted with my cats wee and created the strongest, most horrible odour I have experienced with any litter! Even after cleaning wee immediately, the smell is extremely pungent - the clumping is less effective than others and leaves small but strong-smelling traces of litter… Although there are other average/bad litters out there for various reasons, this was by far the smelliest we’ve tried. Back to lavender scented clay for us. Providing a review for potential future improvements - would try again if this was mitigated. Sorry team!

Formula has changed - no longer clumps like it used to – I have been using this litter exclusively for almost 5 years and it seems that the formula has changed recently. When I first started using the litter, the clumping ability and lifespan of the litter was second to none. My cat's wees would clump well and were able to be flushed, meaning that the litter box didn't smell for weeks! Guests would come… Read more

over and comment that our house didn't smell like we had cats. Now the clumping is awful as it breaks apart, leaving small balls of urine soaked litter that fall through the scoop. This means that the litter box that stinks the house out and needs to be changed after less than a week. The litter is also very dusty like others have said, and always has been in my opinion. I was able to look past this due to the clumping ability and lifespan that the litter used to have, but I can see why some may be concerned over this. The litter is also very bad for tracking. I would often find the little pellets upstairs, at the opposite end of the house! Again, I was able to look past this due to the positives that the litter used to offer, but this is definitely worth mentioning. I have just purchased another brand of eco-friendly clumping litter online, so hopefully this will be much better than what the Wee Kitty Clumping Corn Litter has become.

Used to be the best but now it’s super dusty – I have been using this litter for a while because it clumps well, is natural, and is so good for odour control. I’ve found it to be more economical than the cheaper litters because it lasts so long between changes. Although recent bags have been getting more and more dusty to the point where I’m considering changing brands. What’s the go, Rufus& Coco? Without the dust it’s 5 stars. Show details

Unhealthily dusty – I have used this litter for two years now because I liked the claim of "natural product", the clumping and the pleasant smell. However, the dust has increased with recent bags and my cat now has a cough and hiccups related to the dust. I have switched to a recycled paper product and am very angry at the manufacturers of Rufus & Coco. Show details

I've owned cats for 30 years, this is the best litter I've ever used! – I love this litter so much, clumps fast and perfectly. It masks smells, its organic, flushable, and lasts longer than any other litter I've used because I simply scoop up the clumped Cat wee and poo and the rest of the litter is still clean in the box!. I have been just topping it up as it gets low. I only wish I could buy this litter cheaper as it is quite expensive. Show details

amazing – I used to get clumping clay for my cats but wee kitty clumping corn litter is much better at clumping. Odour control has never been an issue with regular cleaning no matter what litter I've used (I have 2 indoor cats and remove clumps/waste twice a day). Because of pellet size, I find wee kitty clumping corn litter tracks much less than clumping… Read more

clay. I also love that it's biodegradable with less negative impact on the environment (clay is mostly strip mined) Because this litter clumps so well, a bag lasts relatively long, though perhaps not as long as is claimed by rufus and coco. My cats have been using clumping corn litter for almost a year now and are not changing anytime soon.

Great kitty litter! – This kitty litter is really good! I love that it’s biodegradable and I can also flush the clumps of litter down the toilet easily. I find that it controls the odour well and lasts a lot longer than the recycled paper kitty litter. I just wish the pellets were a bit bigger as my cats tend to scatter them around the litter tray once they have finished. Show details

This used to be the best – I have been using this litter for more than 6 years but it seems to have changed. The 'clumpiness' is not like it used to be and no longer holds urine as well as it did before. The litter seems to disintegrate and small bits of urine-soaked litter falls to the bottom of the tray, despite very regular clearing of wee and poo. I noticed a change… Read more

about 2-3 years ago when the smell of the litter changed as well. I wonder if it's now being made in China? I've found a replacement litter and it is 100 times better than this brand.

Can't Recommend - Dusty! – I got this litter, like many, because of the good reviews. However, it's just so dusty. My cats have been sneezing because of it, and the room my litter box is in is just covered in dust! I have trouble scooping it because of breathing in the dust. I would say it clumps well, and it seems to be doing fine with smells, but I just can't recommend it due to the dust. Show details

It was ok but – I loved this product for my 2 cats but the dust is getting worse with every bag I get, definitely not "dust free" as you say on bag. My bathroom has dust over everything. Even my mother rang the other day & said the amount of dust on bottom of tray before she washed it was quite a lot. My black cat comes out like a white faced cat after digging to China for number 2's. Will be looking into another product soon Show details

Loved it in the first week, second week not so much – In the first week, it's great, excellent, low tracking through the house, low odour, easy to sift... By the 2nd week, the pellets start to break down into dust and it generally starts to smell. After about day 10 I've been forced to do a full litter refresh. The "Lasts up to 8 weeks" claim is ludicrous. It lasts around 10 days with sifting… Read more

morning and night using the Rufus & Coco tool to keep it as fresh as possible.

Rufus & Coco should drop the unreasonable claims from the packaging. Technically it's a good product, but it's priced to last 8 weeks and lasts just over one week. It's not cost effective.

Not 'Dust Free' – Tried this litter as it gets great reviews. At first I thought this litter was great, clumps well, easy to clean and reduces smells. However, after a few days, dust starts to build up on the bottom and creates a dust cloud each time my cats use it. They have actually started sneezing more often since using it. I now scoop out the dust to avoid them breathing it in. I will be changing to another brand. Show details

Great for the first few days, terrible after that – I, like most others, tried this due to all the reviews. The first few days were great, I got used to the weird corn smell, although wasn't thrilled with it, if it was going to do what it claimed I was happy to put up with it. - First issue was the amount of dust. My black cat was starting to come out COVERED in beige dust and upon inspecting… Read more

the litter the entire bottom of the tray has around 1cm deep of dust.

- Odour: It is supposed to neutralise odours within 5 minutes. For the first 2 days it was ok. By the third day and more on the 4th & 5th day, I actually checked my unit for some 'accidents' as I thought perhaps with the transition, one of my cats may have had an accident as the smell was that bad. My litter box is hooded, not even open, and I went searching for both accidental wee's and poop's as the smell was so strong. I have had to clean the litter up to 3 times a day to stop my unit smelling like an animal shelter.

- Tracking: It is all over my unit. the cats aren't kickers, it sticks on their feet, to their fur, it isn't just outside of the litter entrance, I have pellets everywhere and when stood on accidentally, they crumble and disintegrate to a powder. It is much worse than my previous crystal litter, I now take back all the times I thought that 'tracked' with a few crystals here and there.

- Longevity: It is supposed to last for ages, however after 5 days it is looking like i will have to replace the entire contents of the litter box and start again. The entire litter smells and seems to be getting worse. The unit no longer smells like corn, it smells like stale musty urine. I can't see how removing clumps and topping up will fix this.

I understand that the entire litter will need to be refreshed at some point, but I thought that wouldn't be after 5 days. Completely defeats the purpose and the claims for the price.

- Clumping: I have found that although soft, if i was extremely careful I could keep the clumps in one piece. This I found I could deal with as it gave me piece of mind that upon flushing, it would disintegrate quickly and not block up any pipes. It doesn't stick to their poops at all, meaning that it doesn't control any odour even when buried. I have to clean after every poop.... not convenient and not amazing coming back home to it.

All in all, I am really disappointed with the product as a whole especially for the price. I was really looking forward to it working as I love the 'flushability' of it and that it completely breaks down to discard it. I really tried to make it work, but it has gotten to the point that I won't be purchasing again. I will finish off my 9kg bag and that will be that.

Not as good as I thought it would be – My cat spreads it around the laundry in her paws. I find that it doesn't clump very well. Its soft and when I pick it up with the scoop it breaks up and goes through the scoop and its hard to scoop it out of the cleaner litter. As a result I use a lot more and there is no way a 9 kg bag will last nearly 18 weeks. I had great hopes for this litter and very disappointed.

Unfortunately left with a bad odour – Saw this on TV and decided to give it a try. Was a bit dubious of the price nonetheless, wanted an alternative to crystals. Was OK at first but after two days of cleaning the litter was left with an awful litter plus ammonia smell coming from our laundry where the litter is. Not sure if I'd purchase it again.

It’s not as good as expected – I purchased this litter because of the ‘perks’ & rave reviews... Perks: * Eco friendly * Flushable * Kitten friendly * Low dust (apparently) * Absorbent * Odour eating * Is meant to last a long time = cost savings.. Sadly it hasn’t lived up to my expectations. While it is absorbent, flushable, kitten friendly & odour eating I… Read more

have had a couple of issues that will have me changing litters.

1st issue:

When I pour this into the litter tray, I find it hard to breathe & end up coughing because of the very fine powder (granted I am asthmatic - I’m not sure if everyone will have the same issue however I’ve been holding my breath when replenishing now so I don’t cough etc) .. I notice a ton of powder at the bottom of the litter tray when scooping also... it’s not exactly ‘dust free’ as the packaging claims.

I find this issue is much worse with the big 9kg bag I recently purchased & wasn’t anywhere near as bad with the 4kg bag.

Perhaps it’s a batch issue, however i don’t know if I’ll be purchasing another big bag to find out.

2nd issue: (which is why I’ll probably be switching litters)

I clean our kittens litter box twice, sometimes three times daily as I don’t want my kitten digging in soiled litter or having an aversion due to a dirty tray.

When cleaning the spots our kitten has urinated in I am finding it to be really tedious.

I shake the box side to side gently to bring clumps to the surface but then need to sift really carefully (when shaking the scoop to separate the clean from the dirty) as the big clumps are soft and break apart easier then expected - I don’t clean it immediately after my kitten has used the tray and it has time to ‘bind’ and absorb.

I find they’re not bound tightly enough and no matter how carefully I sift small soiled pellets fall off the clump, through the scoop & contaminate the ‘clean litter’.

This is beyond frustrating as it means I either have to replace the litter More frequently due to it having soiled particles all through it (I was using way more litter then initially intended!) and now I’ve tried to keep it fresher/last longer and I am having to go in with gloves to pick out the excess soiled/swollen pellets left behind.

I also find that it doesn’t stick to our kittens poops very well & pellets that are poop coated are falling through the scoop and mixing in with the ‘clean’ litter - again meaning I have to go through very meticulously by hand to get rid of them.

Cleaning the litter box is taking me much longer then desirable... I’d rather not spend 10 minutes doing the above.

I feel if the pellet size was 1/4 size they are currently it may solve most of the above issue?

It took 1/2 of my 9kg bag to replenish my Moderna mega comfy litter box from empty & I can’t see the remaining litter lasting me more then a week or two max... equaling money down the drain (literally).

Certainly not 18 weeks as the pack claims (taking into account it is a larger litter box then average also).

I’ll likely be trying ‘cats best oko plus’ after others raving about it in hopes it solves my issues ... I’d love to continue using an eco friendly option rather then turning to clay based etc.

Such a shame this isn’t all I hoped it’d be as it really is great re: containing odours, absorbing and flushability.

Personally I’d rather pay more for something that will save me time and money long term.

Perhaps I’ll come back to this in future, but not without trialing a few others.

I’ll update on that at another time.
