On overfilling

Bestpets are specific that this litter expands when wet, so filling the tray as deep as you would a clay litter risks it swelling over the sides. Starting shallow, at around 1cm, and topping up as needed is the safer approach with a wood-based litter like this one.

Why we chose it

Made in the UK from recovered sawdust rather than imported clay is a genuine point in its favour if origin matters to you, and it's biodegradable without extra cost. The 1cm fill depth is a small detail that saves a wasted first tray if you're used to a deeper clay litter.

— Matt, founder

Full description

Wood-based litter tends to expand once it's wet, which is a detail worth knowing before you fill a tray to the same depth you would with clay — overfill it and the litter swells past the tray's edges rather than simply absorbing and staying put.

Bestpets produce this litter in the United Kingdom from 100% recovered sawdust, described as ultra absorbent and biodegradable, with a pine fragrance rather than an added chemical scent. Their own directions call for filling the tray to a depth of about 1cm rather than the deeper fill some clay litters recommend, precisely because the pellets expand as they take on moisture.

Who it's for: owners who want a biodegradable, UK-produced litter with a natural pine scent, and who are prepared to fill the tray shallower than they might be used to with clay.
