Non-clumping litter that doesn't turn to dust

We're currently using Home Bargains wood pellets for new cat as she was using it in her last home and it doesn't smell but it turns to dust. Dcat seems to find that frustrating as she's very clean, and it means we have to clean the whole tray out daily. Any recommendations for a non-clumping litter?

Catsan is ok, I think it tends to be the go to
for a lot of people.

There are some crystal ones too, I think it’s called Sancat. They’re meant to be easier as the crystals absorb the wee, so it’s clean and fresh but I felt a bit grim not cleaning the wee out daily.

Hmm yes, I'd feel weird not cleaning out daily!

I've used the recycled newspaper pellets for years, minimal mess no dust and seems to mask smells quite well.

They sound good. Is it any particular brand that you use?

I use one called celect, think pets at home stock it, I usually order through my work (vets).

Does it have to be non clumping? Cats best does a clumping pellet litter so you can remove pee as well as poo

People keep telling me that clumping isn't good for cats but I'm not sure why?

Catsan, always.

We use the crystals for three cats. Best litter I've ever used - no smell, dehydrate the poo for easier picking and doesn't need cleaning as often.

The eco clumping is ok even if they eat it. Clay maybe not so good if eaten. Only really an issue with kittens probably

I use catsan as well, tried others but they're just not as good and smells seem worse with other brands.
