Cat Lovers Rejoice! – Two New Innovative Products to Eliminate the Hassle of Frequently Changing Your Cat’s Litter Box

If you have a cat, or know someone who does, you are probably familiar with the unpleasant odor a cat's litter box can leave behind. Cat owners, especially those who own more than one cat, find themselves constantly bending down to clean out the litter box in order to keep it fresh. This chore is time-consuming, nauseating, and in many cases, tough on your back.

Two new products have recently been invented to make the lives of cat lovers much easier. Unique in their functionality and design, the CatGenie Self-Flushing, Self-Washing Cat Box and the Scoop Free Automatic Self Cleaning Litter Box use different methods and technology for the same goal: to help with the unpleasant task of keeping your cat's litter box clean and fresh.

Scoop Free Self Cleaning Litter Box

The Scoop Free Self Cleaning Litter Box is simple to use, requires no installation, and is very cost effective. Rather than having to deal with the mess associated with pouring cat litter from bags, this device uses its own cartridges that come filled with Fresh Step Crystals kitty litter. Simply lift the unit, remove the old cartridge, and replace it with a new one.

Because of the integrated system and design of the Scoop Free, cat owners can go up to a month without having to change the cartridge if they have one cat. When a cat uses the box, a motion sensor is activated and a twenty minute countdown begins. At the end of the countdown, the integrated rake moves across the litter pushing solid waste into the covered trap at the end. The rake then moves back across the litter to smooth it out and freshen it. There is no scooping (hence the name "Scoop Free"), bagging, or changing of any cartridges for up to a month. The Scoop Free includes an AC adaptor so it can be plugged into the wall and is roughly the same size as a normal cat litter box.

In addition to packs of additional cartridges, two other accessories are available for the Scoop Free Self Cleaning Litter Box. The optional litter box hood provides comfort and privacy for cats that are shy while the optional anti-tracking carpet sits in front of the box to keep your cat from tracking litter or waste through your home. The Scoop Free and its accessories make great holiday gifts for any cat lover and are a "must have" for anyone with physical limitations that make frequent litter box cleaning difficult.

CatGenie Self-Flushing, Self-Washing Cat Box

The CatGenie Self-Flushing, Self-Washing Cat Box is a very unique device that functions as a litter box, acts like a toilet, and cleans like a modern washing appliance. While it is more expensive than the Scoop Free and requires some installation, the CatGenie does not require any manual disposal of waste, scooping, or changing of cartridges.
Using litter-like, washable granules that never need changing, the CatGenie uses the water line and waste disposal abilities of your toilet. Once the cat uses the box, water and a special SaniSolution wash are flushed through it to clean the granules and push the solid waste into a special compartment where it is turned into liquid waste. The waste is then disposed of through your toilet or laundry waste line and the built-in hot air blower dries the granules. The entire process is completely automatic.

Washable granules and the SaniSolution are available for purchase separately along with higher side walls and the GenieDome for your cat's privacy. While it does require some one-time installation, the CatGenie is perfect for elderly people and those with physical disabilities as it eliminates the need to scoop waste and change liners or cartridges.

"How Will My Cat Adjust To These Devices?"

Different cats adjust to change in different ways. Typically cats take to these devices immediately, especially if you put them in the same location as where your old litter box was. In the beginning, you may wish to add a half scoop of your existing cat litter to the granules included with these two devices in order to help your cat adjust to the new box.

Cat lovers are sure to enjoy either one of these devices - your house will not be filled with the unpleasant cat litter odor, the back-straining chore of cleaning the box is eliminated, and most importantly, your cat will be happy.
