Europe's best selling litter brand goes plant, and the result is a clean, even tofu from an unexpected source. Tigerino, the house label of the giant German retailer zooplus and the most popular cat litter brand it sells, makes a plant based litter from soya fibre and starch, and it arrives at No. 31 with seventy six on a card of consistent fours.
Dust, clumping, odour and tracking each score a solid four. The tofu pellets pour cleanly, clump fast and firm, control smell adequately, and largely hold to the tray, a balanced everyday performance with no single weakness. It is biodegradable and water soluble, light to handle, and sold at the keen price a retailer brand can command.
Sustainability sits at three, a touch below where a pure plant litter might reach, the markdown reflecting the added scents, the green tea and milky fragrances Tigerino offers, and the packaging rather than the renewable soybean base itself.
What you are buying is a dependable, affordable plant litter from Europe's dominant pet retailer, the litter a vast continental audience reaches for precisely because it is everywhere and it works. It does not chase a headline number on any axis, but it stumbles nowhere either, and it brings the plant litter shift to the European mainstream at a sensible price. For the zooplus shopper who wants a renewable, low fuss tofu without a premium, it is an easy and genuine recommendation. A quiet success from an unlikely litter brand.
