Why The Smart Cat Box Really Makes Sense BONUS GIVEAWAY!
Filed under Litter & Hygiene by moderncat at 1:05 am on Nov 13 2008
I made another great find at the SuperZoo Pet Expo back in September and I’ve been looking forward to sharing this one with you. The Smart Cat Box is in my opinion one of the very best natural litter systems on the market. I met the inventor, Sarah Maguire, President of Providence House Manufacturing and immediately understood that she is completely dedicated to creating an alternative cat litter box that is healthier for you and your cat and better for the environment.
The Smart Cat Box is the original patented two-part litter box. You may have seen another two-part box from a large manufacturer recently. This other two part-box uses plastic pellets and replaceable pads, both items that require repeat purchases (see my Litter Locker review to read about how happy refill purchases make me.) This other box has been getting good reviews, but I want you to know about the Smart Cat Box and why I think it is a much better choice.
The Smart Cat Box uses all-natural, non-absorbent litter pellets and a patented two-part box design to separate solid and liquid waste. The top portion of the box holds natural safflower seed litter that allows urine to pass through the slotted floor into a covered urine collection reservoir below. Solids can be easily scooped from the litter pellets and liquids are disposed of by emptying the reservoir. By separating solid and liquid waste and containing urine in a covered reservoir, the Smart Cat Box dramatically reduces unwanted odors.
Healthy for Cats & People
Recent concern about the dangers of using clay and clumping cat litters that contain silica and sodium bentonite has caused consumers to seek out natural litter alternatives. The safflower seed litter used in the Smart Cat Box is completely natural and safe for both cats and humans.
Collecting liquid waste separately also allows cat owners to easily test blood sugar levels in urine for diabetic and special needs cats. This feature of the Smart Cat Box makes it an excellent tool for both cat owners and veterinarians who need to regularly monitor a cat’s health.
Healthy for the Environment
Traditional clay litters have a negative impact on the environment on both ends of the lifecycle since clay litter is a non-renewable resource that is gathered by strip mining and it never biodegrades when placed in a landfill. The safflower seed litter used in the Smart Cat Box is made from a renewable resource that is fully biodegradable and is grown in the U.S.
I am currently testing the Smart Cat Box and so far, so good. The reservoir is very easy to empty and the cats seem to like the safflower seed pellets. I added on the extender walls (shown below) to give the sides of the box a little more height to prevent litter from being kicked out. The pellets are completely dust free and I imagine if there is an issue with odor that sprinkling a little Odorzout over the seeds would take care of it.
SMART CAT BOX GIVEAWAY!
One lucky winner is going to receive a free Smart Cat Box starter kit which includes the box, a 5 lb bag of safflower seed litter and a scoop. To enter, please leave a comment on this post and be sure to include your email address in the email field. All entries must be received by midnight on Friday, November 14. The winner will be selected in a random drawing on Saturday.

Looks great!
2 lisabeeon 13 Nov 2008 at 4:26 am
i’ve been curious about this: how do you stand the smell of a container full of cat pee? i mean, it is some of the foulest-smelling stuff on the planet, imo, and now i have to carry a container full of it to my toilet? ew. talk me down? cuz i have two cats and am on the lookout for a better way than my doesn’t-turn-off littermaid (so i have to wait for just the right moment–after the clumps have formed but before the next time either has to use the box again–to run it myself) or my two regular scoopies.
3 Bridgeton 13 Nov 2008 at 5:31 am
This looks like it might really work and would be great for my older cats!
4 Chrison 13 Nov 2008 at 5:57 am
Oh, that sounds VERY promising!
5 Hollyon 13 Nov 2008 at 6:22 am
This kind of litter box is an interesting concept, and I like the greenness of the idea. Thanks!
6 Daveon 13 Nov 2008 at 6:31 am
I’ve considered natural litter products in the past but ended up going with a standard box and clumping litter. It’d be neat to try this out.
7 kristieon 13 Nov 2008 at 6:36 am
This sounds great!
8 Chrison 13 Nov 2008 at 7:29 am
This looks interesting, I’d be interested to see how our cat adapted to the safflower seed litter.
9 Sherion 13 Nov 2008 at 7:44 am
It does sound interesting. And I could definitely do without clay dust!
10 Michaelon 13 Nov 2008 at 7:51 am
Renewable source litter is thankfully the future, no more clay!!
11 Anthonyon 13 Nov 2008 at 7:51 am
Thank you moderncat for making us aware of such great products
12 Sharonon 13 Nov 2008 at 7:56 am
Excellent concept. One would have to establish a routine since the urine tray can’t be seen to gauge when it is getting full. Also I can see myself spilling the tray of urine on myself or the carpet before getting it to the toilet. Nevertheless, it would certainly be worth a try and if it is good I would want three of them.
13 Rupeon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:00 am
Another fantastic entry from Moderncat blog - thanks for the heads-up!
14 Brian Enigmaon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:03 am
It looks great in concept, but I wonder how well the separation and cleaning actually work in practice. We occasionally try different natural litters here, but find the price/performance ratio to be pretty bad. Someday, I’d like to find a litter/system that works well.
15 Aprilon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:08 am
I don’t know if I like the thought of urine sloshing around in a little tray, but I’m curious to try the safflower seed litter.
16 Jeanneon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:12 am
This sounds like an excellent product!
17 megon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:16 am
being the former owner of a diabetic cat, i can certainly see the benefits to having such a device.
18 Carrieon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:17 am
Interesting at the very least. I’d test that sucker out!
19 Allisonon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:18 am
looks awesome
20 carolon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:19 am
great idea!! would love to get it!
21 ERNIE MERKon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:21 am
ANYTHING TO MAKE LITTER BOX CLEAN UP EASIER!!
22 Melanie Leeon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:22 am
Count me in. With 7 cats (at the moment, it could go up at any time,lol) I am always looking for new and improved litter box set ups. Since the litter boxes are in the laundry room which is right next to the powder room, this would be quite convenient for me.
23 Annaon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:22 am
That would be great for my stinky kitten!
24 Christineon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:22 am
I love everything about this product! Great giveaway!
25 Ian St. Germainon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:22 am
Looks like an interesting concept. The urine tray does make me nervous for spilling, but i’d love to try it!
26 Kristyon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:24 am
I have two cats and use the Hidy-Tidy cabinet. I wonder if this would work in my current system?.? I like the idea that its biodegradable.
27 brieanneon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:24 am
i love the idea of the natural litter and odor-reducing litter box (we live in a small apartment). i also love supporting the smaller business.
28 Sylvieon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:27 am
This seems to work like the Tidy Cat BREEZE system (http://www.breezeforcats.com/), except that I think the BREEZE looks a bit better. I think it sounds promising and will probably try it in the near future.
29 jennyon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:29 am
how do you stand the smell of a container full of cat pee?
Yes, my question exactly. How does this not reek? You’ve got a plastic slot that the cats basically pee through, and then a plastic container full of cat pee that you have to empty (which in my case would require carrying it through the house to the bathroom)? I am highly skeptical.
30 stephanieon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:29 am
nice! i would love to eliminate the sawdust tracked all over my apartment by my kitty.
31 Stephanie S.on 13 Nov 2008 at 8:29 am
I’m also wondering about walking around with a container of urine… It doesn’t leak out the sides and drip? And the connection to the actual box is water tight? No leaks?
Also, how are safflower seeds for tracking? are they small like regular litter? or larger pellets like paper based litters?
Additionally, can safflower seed oil agitate cats with allergies? Has this been explored? My cats are pretty sensitive to new substances, and I’ve heard that pine isn’t particularly good for cats, and that’s why I’ve avoided feline pine…
I would love this box, but I really want some answers to these questions before I make a purchase!
32 triciaon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:30 am
It would be interesting to see how the prince would adjust to changes on his “throne”.
33 cindyon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:30 am
ok of all the items you’ve shown us this week, THIS is the one I love!!
Gimme
If I don’t win I will probably try to buy one since it looks like it might work well for me. Wonder how easy it would be to incorporate this into one of the ikea type hacks that hide the bin? Since it’s low ordor I’d feel comfy with this in the livingroom.
Thanks for the reviews on this.
How bad do your cats dig around in the saffflower ‘litter?’
34 Jenniferon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:30 am
Sounds great. I would love to be able to give it a try.
35 Ninaon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:33 am
Sounds interesting. I’m tempted to try it out.
36 Pamon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:33 am
Yeah, I’m not very green with my cat litter. I’m a clumping litter user, but I have been thinking about switching since subscribing to this blog. This might just be a good place to start. I’m not to crazy about the pee tray idea, but if it’s better for my kitties, and the environment, I think I can manage. Now to see if it’s available anywhere near me in Canada.
37 Caraon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:34 am
Looks like a great product! I do wonder how the bottom box smells when emptying it…
38 Lauraon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:34 am
I own (and love) the Litter Robot, but some of my cats are scared of it, so this would be a nice alternative to the boxes they use that I scoop. The non-scoop boxes really spoil you and they are wonderful! Hope I win!
39 jeanetteon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:34 am
Love the high walls, but am curious about the pee container. That part sounds a bit iffy… How exactly do you empty it without spilling it everywhere? Spilling it wouldn’t solve my pee smell issue.
40 Lorion 13 Nov 2008 at 8:34 am
I would be willing to try it for free, but also have reservations about the urine tray. Has anyone tried the litterbot? I’m leaning towards that, but don’t really want to shell out such big bucks
thank you, ModernCat for bringing such innovative ideas to our attention. I, too, prefer to support the small business.
41 Taraon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:35 am
This looks so much more efficient than a regular litter box. I think this would work really well for the odor problem!
42 Catherine Chandleron 13 Nov 2008 at 8:35 am
That’s a fantastic invention! Thank you so much for reviewing it. I would love to have it around
43 Maryannon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:37 am
ME ! ME! ME! I sooooo need this ! Sounds like a great product….
44 Kristyon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:37 am
I’m very curious about how this would change my life, and the lives of my kitties. I’d love to find out!
45 Sheilaon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:38 am
This looks like a litter box my red tabby and his mother (me!) would love! I can’t wait to try it!
46 Noelleon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:38 am
Would love to try it. It’s great for cats that have the crystal problem as well. It’s easy to get a urine same then if needed. How easy is it to buy the special litter? I’m in Canada.
47 sarahon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:40 am
Me and the katkids would be willing to give this a try!
48 Sarahon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:41 am
This I need!
49 Laurelon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:41 am
This is one of the more interesting concepts in litter boxes. I, too, would be concerned about the urine tray filling up quickly seeing as I have three wee beasties. Dust free pellets are a huge plus!
I like the extender walls too. My three do not like “hooded” boxes but this is open, yet can still keep the litter in the box instead of spread across my entire house.
Certainly worth looking into!!
50 Sylvia Percyon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:43 am
Interesting, but I wonder how it would work for our 7 cats.
51 Jessicaon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:44 am
Love it!
52 Jessicaon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:46 am
Oh this is so cool… I use clumping cat litter and I hate it when a urine clump falls apart and then you have urine soaked litter everywhere in the litter box of you have to empty the whole thing….whew! This is the perfect solution
53 Avivaon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:48 am
Sounds interesting
54 Katherine D.on 13 Nov 2008 at 8:52 am
This looks awesome - would love to win this. And it would allow me to monitor urine, something I never thought I could do (poor kitty had to have the vet put a catheter in last time to check his urine!).
55 Carly Meyeron 13 Nov 2008 at 8:53 am
What a God send!
My male cats urine odor is quite overwhelming in the litterbox…and, I’ve come to find that I’m allergic to it…so, to simply have it catch in a reserved box to then be eliminated, sounds FANTASTIC!! To help w/ the environment is simply an added bonus all around. 
Thank you for the chance to win this item!! I’d definately write an honest review of it afterwards, as well.
Thanks again!
56 Debraon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:55 am
My question is: what do you do with the solid waste? I assume that you still can’t flush it since there are toxins in their waste that are bad for ocean critters, but I guess it’s easier to just dump it into a bag for the garbage than scooping it out. Interesting concept.
57 Christineon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:57 am
Would really like to try something new. Pine pellets were toxic when saturated and my cat looks up at me with a pitiful expression when she has to take care of business. I hope I win!
58 laurieon 13 Nov 2008 at 8:58 am
OK-I’d give it a try……I try everything—-:)
59 Laurelon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:00 am
I’m wondering what it’s like to move a resevoir of cat urine…what do you do with the urine? How do you empty the reservoir?
Sounds like a fascinating product. I hope the inventor does well by doing good.
P.S. I love SWheat Scoop!
60 MJon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:02 am
Looks great I have to say my my little boy has trouble with certain cat litter products, believe it or not - feline pine, etc and his sister doesn’t. We have used every litter under the sun and had to resort recently back to scoop away because it feels comfortable on his feet and is the only way we could get him to use the litter box. I would be worried about the stench of pee if any! but i suppose it works better than just a box and litter scoop. Who thinks these ideas up - would love one.
61 Anneon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:02 am
I love the fact that its biodegradable! Looks great and would love to win!
Thanks
62 Katieon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:02 am
Looks interesting!
63 mollysusieon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:03 am
I love gadgets sooo much! Especially gadgets that help with cat poo disposal. It could be life changing!
64 Christyon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:09 am
Interesting. I’ll give it a shot if I win it.
65 Lorraineon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:09 am
With 4 cats, I’d love to try this. Thank you.
66 Stevenon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:11 am
ME ! ME! ME! I really need this soooo much more!
I am going to check it out on their site.
67 soniaon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:12 am
my kitty wants one!! he has kidney issues and id love to use natural litter.
68 Barbaraon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:13 am
Safflower seeds? Ingeniious. Better still, those extra high walls. We really need those in our house.
69 Debra Bashfordon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:14 am
This looks interesting, but I too wonder about emptying the pee tray, especially since I am a real clutz.
70 Jesson 13 Nov 2008 at 9:15 am
yes, me please!!
71 Kellyon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:16 am
Thanks for all the great information! I think my cats would love a box like this.
72 lauraon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:18 am
Count me in, pls. Our big guy is about 16 pounds and we’ve had to replace all of our tiny catboxes with monster boxes, just so he stops missing. With 4 happy, healthy cats in the house, we’d really like anything that helps make litter cleanup a little easier.
73 cynthiaon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:20 am
I’ve tryed everthing this sounds great !
74 karenon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:21 am
Definitely want to give it a try, seems like a really great concept. Doesn’t the poop smell though since it says the “litter” doesn’t stick to it? Mabye combo with the Odorzout is the best of both worlds!
75 Yuriqon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:23 am
This looks like it could be the solution to my kitty-litter problems! I especially like the extender wall — no matter what type of litter used, my cats lie kicking litter all over the place (and don’t like fully enclosed boxes).
76 Charleneon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:24 am
I have a diabetic cat and this would be great for me to keep track of his urine levels, also to be able to change it more often than just scooping that leaves the oder in the cat litter. One of the best inventions for cats would be this litter box
77 Tinaon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:26 am
You are right…. Use cat owners are always on the prowl for better ways of dealing with the litter box. This looks like a simple and clean way of taking care of the litter. I really like the extender walls. Since the litter box is in the half bath, I hate for guests to have step on litter granules. It is especially embarrassing when there are accidents in the presents of guests too.
78 Sueon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:26 am
Fred, Diva and Baxter would love to test drive it!
79 Jenniferon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:29 am
This sounds interesting. One of our cats is diabetic, so I definitely would want to give it a try so we can measure his blood sugar level easily.
80 Rachelon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:33 am
I wanted to try that “other” big manufacturer one and was also resistant to having to continually purchase refills for it. This seems much better!
81 Karenon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:33 am
ohhhhhhhhhhh, this could be very nice if it really does reduce odor…..
I’m in!
82 Christineon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:33 am
This is an interesting option. I’m sure at least one of my three cats would take to it.
83 Hannahon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:34 am
looks good
84 Jessicaon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:34 am
Too good to be true!
85 Maggieon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:35 am
I would love to win this Smart Cat Box for my little kittie.
86 Melon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:38 am
We would be very curious to use this. We are slowly switching from bentonite to corn-based litter at the moment, so safflower would probably not be a difficult switch.
87 Cathrynon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:43 am
I am always looking for items that would be better for my cats. I want to check this out.
88 Jinhoon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:44 am
This sounds Great! One of my kitties (Gody) is having some eye problem and the vet suggested changing the litter to something that makes less dust, but I didn’t like the absorbing kinds because it didn’t capture the smell good enough. The Smart Cat Box sounds like an answer!
89 Kelseyon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:52 am
oooh, wonderful!
90 Kathion 13 Nov 2008 at 9:54 am
I have an asthmatic kitty; this sounds like something that could help her poor little lungs work a little less hard after a trip to the potty…
91 Annon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:54 am
This sounds terrific! I am going to pass this on to others.
92 Janeton 13 Nov 2008 at 9:56 am
It looks like one of the best litter box ideas I’ve seen. I have four neutered males and they do dampen the litter boxes real fast. The side attachment is another great idea. Looking forward to hearing good things about this item.
93 Lisaon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:57 am
I’d love to give it a try!
94 lisaon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:57 am
i am dying for a good solution to the multi-cat litter stink and environmental situation. this looks worth investigating!
95 Jennaon 13 Nov 2008 at 9:58 am
I’m really interested in trying this… As soon as I read your post on natural litters, I decided it was the kick in the butt I was waiting for to try something new (I’m by no means a treehugger, but I do try to pay attention, I’d say I’m halfway to treehuggerness…. nothing wrong with them, btw). Unfortunately, I’m not having much luck. I have three litter boxes in my tiny apartment and I’ve been leery to switch out more than one box for Feline Pine. For whatever reason my biggest kitty girl’s liquid doesn’t clump like the others, so it’s especially difficult in the feline pine. The smell factor of the feline pine also seems MUCH worse than the normal tidy cats, but I refuse to give up on it entirely. I do often mix the two together (sometimes by accident) and I found that mixing in a little baking soda does make the feline pine a little more useful. I also like that feline pine seems to be somewhat of an independent company (although I haven’t researched that, but about a year ago when I tried them out, I called for a new user kit and actually talked to someone in America!) I’ve been hesitant to try some of the others, based on your reviews, because things like dust and clumping are really important to me with three cats in a small apartment.
Anywho, sorry for the ramble, but please sign me up for a chance to win this… Not that I ever win anything, but I’m keeping my fingers crossed for some litter luck (ha ha ha).
96 Vernelon 13 Nov 2008 at 10:01 am
I really like the idea of the extender sides. My cat sometimes gets in the box and then sprays. I’ve rigged up various ways to contain it, but this looks a whole lot better.
97 Erinon 13 Nov 2008 at 10:04 am
I would love to try this out, it seems like such a better way to do things. I hope I get to see how it works!
98 Feliceon 13 Nov 2008 at 10:07 am
This litter sounds good, but whenever I try to use a “green” alternative to their usual litter, my finicky three tend to find alternative places!
I’m willing to give this new product a try (and hope for the best).
99 Jenon 13 Nov 2008 at 10:20 am
I would love to try this product. Thanks for posting.
100 Krison 13 Nov 2008 at 10:28 am
Would love the chance to give this a try- sounds like there is finally a*new* idea in litter!
101 Sue Con 13 Nov 2008 at 10:29 am
This looks like an excellent system. I’ve had difficulty with the litter boxes with the automatic rakes, etc., and would like to find something that does not require power or have moving parts. Sue
102 Ivyon 13 Nov 2008 at 10:32 am
Great idea, I have several boxes with clay-based litter that I would gladly get rid of, too much dust!
103 Balfouron 13 Nov 2008 at 10:36 am
My cat wants this!
104 Jessicaon 13 Nov 2008 at 10:38 am
I love the concept of an environmentally friendly cat box, that will be healthy for my four fur-kids to use. The clay litters sold in pet stores, while inexpensive, are not the healthiest things for cats. Not to mention the fact that two of my cats really enjoy playing in the litterbox, and will toss out the litter all over the floor, and roll in it!
105 LilyAnnon 13 Nov 2008 at 10:42 am
Sounds like a great product! I would be very interested to try the Smart box!
106 Leandroon 13 Nov 2008 at 10:47 am
Sounds good. The reviews at Amazon seem almost too good to be true…
107 Nickon 13 Nov 2008 at 10:51 am
This is brilliant! Sounds like it would really make a difference, my boys would be quite interested in trying it out =)
108 Joanne Mullenon 13 Nov 2008 at 10:51 am
I like this so much I am going out now to adopt more cats! (only kidding). I am thinking that this would be healthier for my dogs that go in the litter box after the tootsie rolls..I have always thought that digging through the urine is bad for them in their quest.
109 Charlotteon 13 Nov 2008 at 10:53 am
With six kitty-cats ruling my life, I always am willing to try anything new to keep down smell, costs, dust…UGH! This sounds like a step in the right direction!
110 Kateon 13 Nov 2008 at 10:58 am
That is new and different. Would be great for my 15 year old who would love her own litter box away from the new young kitties in the house
111 Julieon 13 Nov 2008 at 11:00 am
I know for a fact that my ‘roommate’ Quiki would absolutely love to do her business in this sweet litter box! And it would just make me smile to see her happy! Great product! I WANT ONE!
112 Lisa Rothon 13 Nov 2008 at 11:02 am
Not often you see something really innovative. Good job! Thanks for bringing it to our attention.
113 Billy Rapeon 13 Nov 2008 at 11:08 am
look like it would work
114 tiandion 13 Nov 2008 at 11:17 am
the concept of this litter box is very interesting. i currently use the omega paw roll & clean with a clay-based litter (the most dust-less, frangrance-free one that i can find). i have thought about trying a more natural, earth-friendly alternative but am a little nervous about switching things up, especially with trying litter made out of different substances. i’ll be keeping an eye on this option…
115 Johnon 13 Nov 2008 at 11:23 am
This is pretty neat. I’m still a little skeptical about the two part system, but I can tell you that my office is covered in cat litter dust. I can only imagine how harmful this stuff must be on the cats’ and my lungs.
116 Hope Kon 13 Nov 2008 at 11:29 am
I’m looking for a better litter solution!
117 Jillon 13 Nov 2008 at 11:34 am
Count me in !! I have 2 VERY large Cats that really need a VERY Large Litter solution. I would love to try it !!
118 fmcon 13 Nov 2008 at 11:42 am
I would love, love, love to try this system and hopefully, so would my 3 feline roomates!
119 Nessaon 13 Nov 2008 at 11:53 am
I have wanted one of these for MONTHS. My friend (who’s a vet!) told me about it. I can’t afford one currently, but as soon as I can, it’s going to be a present for my kitties!

I’m willing to try just about anything, especially if I don’t have to buy it, just to find out that the cats reject it. Someone should come up with a cat-stuff exchange club where we could trade with each other all the toys and gadgets that our cats have rejected.

I bet it works wonderfully! Great idea!
122 Justin Phillipson 13 Nov 2008 at 12:13 pm
Want!

Ooooh, hopefully I get it, I’ve been wanting to try the other one..

Wow, I’d love to have one of these. We keep our litter box in the kitchen and I worry about the dust getting into our (and the cat’s) food. Plus, anything that helps cut down on the wonderful cat-emission smells can’t hurt!

it’s worth a try. I always hold my breath when scooping litter - you never know.

Interesting. I’d love to try it out!

We are adding a new kitten next week to a household with two 17 year old cats (new: Maine Coon; old: Himalayans. Should be interesting!). I would be thrilled if this worked for everybody!

I love the idea of dust-free litter!
However, like several others here, I am skeptical about the following two things:
1. Doesn’t a pee reservoir stink?
2. How do you keep the pee from sloshing around when moving it to empty it?
I would love to see a followup post to this post answering those two (frequently asked, I see) questions.
Meanwhile, I’d also love to win one and see for myself!

I’d love to give it a try!

ingenious! i love that you’re taking the time to put all these products through their paces to the benefit of us all! this one sounds really promising with the separation of “1″ and “2″. could be great for my cat going through renal failure.
thanks so much!!

This looks amazing- good for the environment and good for the cat. Is it available in Canada?
132 Julieon 13 Nov 2008 at 12:58 pm
We need more natural options like these!!!

Would be interesting to try. I share the same concerns about emptying a tray full of cat piss.
134 Abigailon 13 Nov 2008 at 1:03 pm
I would love to try this although I don’t know how it would please my boy because he is a deep, deep digger!

I would love to have one of these!

I tried the Breeze system and it’s okay but I don’t know about having to buy giant maxi pads that you have to empty… full of kitty p
