Litter choices

So I have a litter question. I am sure this has been asked before but litter is too popular a word so thought I would ask. So...
I was using the wood based cat litter for a long time but switched. I then made my first order of megazorb. I was very much impressed with the size of the bag and how long it lasts and also the price. I then tried back 2 Nature as it looked a bit better but I got the 20L bag and it went so quickly I was rather disappointed. I am now thinking of trying the bed o linum but that looks so expensive compared to megazorb and was wondering if they were very similar anyway.
I want a good litter that aborbs well and also absorbs the smell. Lucy absolutely stinks!!!!
What are people's opinions on the matter please?
The megazorb is £7.70 for 85L bag! :shock:
I paid £9.99 for 20L bag of Back 2 Nature
Bed o linum is £14.99 for 35L bag.

Megazorb looks like the best choice but does it absorb smell the best???

I use Aubiose, which I can pick up locally £7.99 for a huge sack.

I started with Carefresh - ing expensive!!!!!

Megazord is goo, but I had to order it online and the delivery was expensive, but I think I like the Aubiose better now as it smells nicer

Thanks for that. I haven't even heard of that one. Might go and have a look in an equine shop we have here. Never really thought to look. Would be good to be able to nip to a shop and get it. I have to make an order with the Hay experts anyway though as ran out of fenugreek crunchies, whoopsies! :wave:

I use this and its fantastic at keeping the smell away

Thanks. I have been trying to stay away from the wood based litter though as it can be dangerous if they eat it although I had no problems with it when I used it. I am just very paranoid!

When I had my buns outside I would use Hemcore, it smelt lovely And my buns were never smelly so it absorbed the smells well.

I used to get it from my local pet/farm shop for £9.99 for a huge block and it would last me for months.
You can buy it online too from horse suppliers and from equine canine feline (I think!)

I thought wood base was ok?
What happens if they eat it?
I thought it was just cat litter that was clumping was dangerous:?

We're big fans of Megazorb TBH. Economical when you have as many bunnies & piggies as we do!

Well I was using the wood based litter that expanded when came in to contact with fluids so it can be dangerous if they ingest it then it expands in their tummies.

:wave: I can see how megazorb is economical for rescues. I might just stick with it then. I will go and have a look in the equine shop and see if there is anything for a good price but if not I will go for megazorb. Seems to last a long time!

I meant personally, rather than at the rescue. Discovering Megazorb was one of the best things we did! x

This is what im using at the moment as i bought it off a good friend so perhaps ill just stick to that then rather than going to buy more cat litter

I used to use that wood pellets but I (a) got suspicious that Mischa was eating it and (b) found it heavy. I've never tried back to nature or bed'o'linoum (sp?) cos I find megazorb works so well for us.

I use megazorb too. I think its great.
