Looks kinda cool! I watched a video of the cleaning cycle on youtube, at DOUBLE SPEED! 10 minutes!!! Gosh, would be easier just scooping...

Can pets get any more spoiled? Cats have their own high tech toilets now? IT'S A CAT!

can humans use it?

I just don't know what to think anymore...I feel so confused by all the technology...

I love this product. I was a Beta Tester and now am a production unit owner and haven't had any problem with the CatGenie yet. It does exactly what they say it will do and more. I never touch the litter! About as close to perfect as you can get with none of the problems of the "Raking" automatic litter boxes. Highly recommended.

Just received our Genie... love it - fits right next to the toilet, easy to setup, looks nice... no problems there. BUT, we didn't follow the directions about letting the cats get used to it (because with the other auto catbox our cats immediately jumped in and used it)... you must follow the directions - leave your current box available, let it fill up (uch!) and then they will look for clean litter. Hopefully our cats will go through this process easily and we'll be all set. If not, we'll have one for sale! Will be sad though!

It'll really help my cousin hoo has 2 use plastic bags 2 clean it.

This devise should never, NEVER be used. Cats have a disease that is deadly to sea life (We are amune to it). By flushing their waste down the toilet, the disease is carried to the sea and it has been determined to be the cause of many sea otter deaths. Please, please to not flush your cat's waste down the toilet.

Sea Otter deaths? I think the problem is dumping into the ocean in general rather then a few cat turds amoung a pipe full of human waste.

" By flushing their waste down the toilet, the disease is carried to the sea and it has been determined to be the cause of many sea otter deaths. Please, please to not flush your cat's waste down the toilet." Complety WRONG!!!!!! What you are concerned about is Toxoplasmosis and it comes from feral and outdoor cats. The stupid law in NOT FLUSHING! Additioannly, most cats have had toxo exposure, VERY COMMON, and once they are exposed they can only shed oocycts 1X in there life and do it for 14 days. lso, if oyu have an indoor cat and feed it regular food (not raw) you will not have any issues. In fact, landfills may be worse becasue of the rodents, ferals and dogs that hang out in them. Do not run around with partial info and attack things you know nothing about! You want ot help otters, the biggest problem is storm drains with the toxo, and oiland chemicals that are getting into the ocean. Ask the experts at UC Davis.

I spend $200 on a "automatic litter box" I still had to deal with the litter and the incoveniences this machine brought. Like getting stuck in the middle of cleaning... I can go on forever. I saw this product and it is worth every penny, no more litter or litter dust all over the house, by the way is litter dust safe to inhale????
In the long run this will pay for it self 4 year warranty can't beat that. The "automatic litter box" one year waranty. not worth it¡
I give this product "Two Thumbs Up" like I said worth every penny.

Hello your human waste is probably even worst than the cats...
If you are so concern about the otters and the sea you should dig a hole in the ground to get rid of your own waste....
I am sure that the users of this wonderful product have indoor cats so....

Clay litters (the kind most commonly used) are NOT good for either you or your kitty. The dust isn't just dust, it's clay particulate dust. It gets into your kitty's and your lungs where it can and does get moist, as well as getting into the kitty's digestive system when they clean themselves, which in turn can cause some serious gastro-blockage. The scoopable is even worse, since it's SUPPOSED to clump up. A product like this (with it's washable granuales) or even using natural litter (newpaper, cedar, pine, etc) is much healthier.

As for those people talking about the spoiling of cats...come ON! It's NOT the cats that are getting spoiled, it's the people. We wouldn't have to scoop bodily wastes anymore...or wash the litter box (if you don't already use plastic bags...which is another environmental concern). And as for the length of time it takes, so freakin' what?! It means that I don't have to possibly come into contact with bodily waste, don't have to even THINK about the kitty litter box, and my kitties would always have a clean clean clean place to do their eliminating business.

In regards to the toxoplasmosis. This product (as well as any other self-cleaning litter boxes...though those still put you in a position of possibily coming into contact with bodily waste) would be perfect for any family with cats...or anyone trying to start one. See, pregnant women and people with impaired immune systems are STILL at risk of catching toxoplasmosis from their kitty's bodily waste. It is recommended that pregnant women and people with impaired immune systems do NOT change the kitty litter. This doesn't mean don't touch the kitty pee/poop, it means not to change it at all because there is the hightened risk of them getting ill.

I don't have one of these, I have a self-cleaner and one that I have to clean (which is the one I'm currently useing...the self-cleaner is away in storage), but I would LOVE to have one. The price tag is a little steep, but when you factor in NOT having to buy new kitty litter (some of which is a potential health risk) and NOT having to manually scoop, dump, and potentially come into contact with bodily waste I think that it's a win-win. Throw in the extra long warrantee and it's just about golden. It really DOES sound like a good investment for you and your kitty's health.

Just got one for my cats, works like a charm and they took to it right away. It's worth every penny to not have to scoop the box anymore.
