BuzzFeed Shopping editor and devoted cat owner, Jenae Sitzes, has invested in a cutting-edge litter box, and she shares her experience. “The first time my mom mentioned a $500 automatic litter box she’d discovered, I was shocked at the thought of spending so much on something my cats use as a bathroom. However, after giving it some thought, I realized it was a sensible investment considering my lifelong commitment to my cats and my aversion to cleaning their litter boxes as frequently as necessary.”
Jenae has been using the Litter Robot for over two years and believes it has made life better for both her and her cats. “Once a cat finishes using it, the Litter Robot waits a bit to ensure the cat has left before it starts rotating. It separates the waste into a bag below while keeping the clean litter. I hardly ever notice any odor, though when the bag is nearly full, it’s a gentle nudge to empty it. I find myself needing to do this about once a week, and a helpful flashing light tells me when it’s time.”
“At first, my cats were unsure about the noise the Litter Robot made during its cleaning cycle. They would sit and watch it cautiously, as if expecting it to chase after them. Now, they’ve fully adapted to it, simplifying my life significantly and ensuring they always have a clean place to go. It’s an expensive item, but if the daily or alternate day cleaning of a litter box is a chore you dread, the Litter Robot is definitely worth considering. Just remember, it’s quite large, so it requires its own space.”
You can purchase it from Litter Robot for $549, available in either white or gray.
