Purina Tidy Cats Litter Box System, BREEZE System Starter Kit Litter Box, Litter Pellets & Pads

I purchased this litter box after several people recommended to me. It fits perfectly inside a cabinet that I purchased that conceals the box so it's not sitting out in plain site. Approx, Height =10.5" Nice smooth texture appearance and putting it together was so easy. 3 steps and it's ready. I am new to the pellet system as I have always used kitty litter for my cats. My little 5 week old kitten is already checking it out and doesn't seem to be having any trouble using it. Delivery was delayed in transit, so instead of next day delivery, it took 3 days. Very sturdy and the pellets have a pleasant smell. If you're on the fence because of price or just not sure how the pellets work, Give it a try! I am very happy with my purchase!

I have 4 indoor only male cats and this system is a life-changer! It removes the dust everywhere problem of using even "dust free" litter. I do now have some stray pellets because of an over zealous cat flinging them while burying his deposit! But they're so easy to sweep up and put back into the box. The urine pads are fantastic and swell up due to a gel in them that absorbs lots of liquid. The boxes are beautiful; although my boys are too big to use them with the white tops on...talking about just the regular size unit. By removing the tops the cats fit better into the boxes and go where they're supposed to "go". With the solids remaining on top of the pellets it's simple to remove them. I am SO happy I saw this in someone's house and asked them about how they liked it before I got it. Btw, they also RAVED about how fabulous the system is. Honestly, imho this system is really a life-changer and worth every penny, not that it's expensive because it's not. Also the smell is gone too. They must have a deodorizer in the pads because I smell nothing anymore. SO much easier to change the pellets and the pads than scooping heavy, hard, smelly used cat litter. Less trash too. So far the pellets are the original ones and it's been well over 4 weeks; although not all 4 cats have adapted to the changeover yet. Try it! Buy it because it's about time someone invented a new system that actually works. And is affordable too! I bought 4 boxes and may have to get 2 more after I live with it awhile and see how the boys "share" them.

21/7/18 - FINAL ADDITION! I have been using these boxes for over 18 months now and I can honestly say, that I cannot see myself every using another option. Until recently, I have had three boxes on the go. But I lost one cat in January and my oldest boy mid-July, so now I am left with one cat and just two boxes. With his brother gone, Maggi happily uses both boxes freely (one was sole domain of the older cat) and spreads his efforts between the two. These boxes are simply the BEST THING AROUND: YES, you can wash the pellets (although they DO start to retain some of the urine smell after a number of months). I still have some original pellets remaining, but I would say that, with cleaning, you're looking at a 4-6 month replacement process. You will also need some spare pellets to replace those that are wasted in cleaning them out each day. YES, you can use other pads in the base - I have tried two different types - generic copies and those designed for humans (to put in the bed - and cut to size). I keep some of the human pads around for emergencies (if my quarterly delivery has not arrived), but the generic ones are not much cheaper than the originals, and they smell more. As others have said - on a monthly basis, drop pellets in (bleach, diluted floor cleaner, Fairy Liquid solution) and hose/shower down the four pieces of the box (a 10 minute process at best). Because I have spare pellets, I refill the boxes with these and leave the dirty pellets to soak for about 24 hours. I then sieve them out the next day, rinse them down, spread them on a tray (now I use the spare green tray from the third set) and let them air-dry. They are then bagged up and ready for the next month's clean. --- APR 2017 EDIT - I gave up trying to migrate the cats (see below) and just gave them just the BREEZE option. They took to it immediately and I've never looked back. I have 3 cats and 2 trays. They tend to pee more in one and poo more in the other, so the pad is replaced more frequently on one of them. That said, 2 pads last approximately 1 week each. Three months into using them and this is what I have observed: • THERE IS NO SMELL - I literally have to be sticking my nose in the saturated pad before I smell the pee. I actually have added a calendar reminder, because once or twice I've forgotten to replace them. The cat's noticed, but I didn't • YOU CAN REWASH THE PELLETS - I have done this twice now (fabric conditioner, warm water, a nice long soak and agitation with gloved hands) and seen no detrimental effect. I cannot guarantee that you will use one bag of pellets forever, but I am in my 3rd month and the only addition to the trays is a sprinkling to augment the few pellets that don't shake off the poo. It's a bit of a chore, but saves the pennies. PADS - I have tried human pads (larger , and designed for beds). They work, but I need to change them daily. A cost-per-day comparison showed them to be pennies cheaper, but the smell increased and they were often soaked so much that pee was flowing the following morning. Use the Breeze pads. They work out (for me) at 28-30 cents a day for three cats. • NOT LEGO - When you tread on them barefoot you notice, but it's hardly the Lego experience that some complain of. They are small and rounded. Sure, I'd prefer NOT to stand on one, but it's fine... • CONSTRUCTION - The four parts (tray, base, filter and surround) are thick plastic, not flimsy at all. 2 of my cats love to dig and no more than a handful of pellets come outside. • COST - OK, these pellets are not cheap, but they outlast regular fullers earth, or clumping litter by a massive factor, making them 'slightly more expensive' that regular options. Factor in the washing option (if you go that way) and they are totally comparable. Even without the washing option, the saving savings made with air fresheners etc, PLUS the fact that the smell is non-existent also has a value. I can see how some cats may not like the transition, but mine are happy with them and, as someone who has used a range of options, this is by far, the best I have ever used. --- ORIGINAL REVIEW It's not the fault of the product makers but, after two weeks, my three cats are only now considering these as legitimate areas to do their business. It seems that under the bed, in the middle of my freshly dry-cleaned duvet or in the shower were more obvious replacements for their old and tired regular trays. That said - the product is well made, well considered, offers sound advice and is a self-contained unit ready to work in two minutes. It's great - My cats are not...

I read several reviews and I kept looking for one that specified on a multi-cat (3 or more) home. I have 2 adult cats 13 & 15yrs and 2 young cats 1yr & 3mon. So I bit the bullet and ordered this product so I could review it for others in my cat situation. THE PROS: A. YES, YES, YES! Kills the urine order problem. Couldn't be happier. I'm a real paranoid cat owner who always worries about odor. We changed our box 2-3 times a week. The cats took to it right away. Make sure you put it the same place as your old box. We were keeping the old box in case they hated it, but actually they loved the Breeze because it was cleaner with no odor. B. So much easier to clean! The hardest part for us was to make a habbit of scooping. We never had scooping litter, so we weren't scoopers hence the several litter changes per week. I think that was the hardest part honestly. SCOOP TIP: Scoop when the poop is dry if possible. It's easier to scoop and the pellets fall back into the box when you shake the scooper rather than stick to the poop and get thrown away. (remember the pellets aren't cheap & you need them for the whole month!) C. It's the size of a standard size litter box. The adult cats are 13lbs each repectively. I was worried about my fat cats sqeezing in there or not using it because they were crammed. It is a tighter fit for them, but worse come to worse you can keep the top part (the walls) off the Breeze and it "opens up" the box more. But it wasn't necessary for us. The fat cats use it fine with the walls. THE CONS: A. It does track. If you have diggers, it tracks. Either they dig it out of the box or they take it with them in a final dig in their paws.It doesn't track a lot, maybe right outside of the box (we don't have a mat by the box. We are considering) and only a few pieces track. But we have a 3mon kitten who flings those pellets all over the floor and I'll tell you what...when you step on those pellets in the middle of the night you know it! It's like stepping on rocks! B. The pad isn't made for 4 urinating cats. The first time I waited the week like instructed just to see. No odor at all still but when I opened that tray HOLY CRAP! It was like a SEA of urine! If I had waited one more day it would've spilled over the edge of the tray! The pad was so saturated it could've been wrung out like a wash cloth easy 3 times! So with a steady hand I made it to the sink and took care of it. We now change the pad every 4 days and it's perfect. When the 3mon old gets older we may have to do it every 3 days. The pad does absorb well; it's very much like bed wetting pads with the layer of plastic on the bottom. In the end, it's SO much easier for a multi-cat home. Anyone will tell you that the box is the worst part about cats (indoor). It's the chore no one wants and if you're like me (a paranoid) it's perfect! The only human maintenance is hose down the Breeze inside & out once a month when you change the pellets and to wash the tray every time you change the pad. That's what we do; it just makes sense. I will admit that the cost can be a bit more. That's why I rated it a 4 star. (The pellets run 11-14.00 a bag and the pads run 8-10.00 a pack of four). We pay a bit more than usual because we have to change the pad more. So multi-cat owners just know that ahead of time. I hope this has helped those in my situation. I apologize that it's so long, but I wanted to be as honest as possible. We are a cat box hating home, so this was like our much needed relief.

Go buy this! Do it NOW! I was hesitant to purchasing because I thought “hmmm will kitty use it?” “Hmmm will it be worth the money?” So my main concerns were would my cat adjust and will it be worth it. As far as kitty adjusting I semi-followed the acclimation instructions provided. I left the old litter box dirty and put the breeze box close by. I also took a turd from her old box and threw it in the new box to encourage her. So she peed in the box within a day. But no poops. The old box (which I stopped cleaning after adding the breeze) kept getting used regularly but not the new. A few random pees but no poops. So after about a week I added in some pinto beans (more on that below) and then took her old box away completely and crossed my fingers she’d use the breeze box for poops and pees. Well she did! Without the old box she went right to the breeze, no accidents or poops in random places like some reviews mentioned during transition. Ok so pinto beans. I read some other reviews saying this was a good alternative to the pellets. I didn’t really try the pellets by themselves so don’t know. But the pellets with the pinto beans mixed in seems good. No problems for me. I will say if you chose to only use pellets it’s kinda skimpy with the one bag they give you. Like your cat might feel they don’t have enough to scratch around with. Which is why I went ahead and added beans in early on. My cat seems to like them fine. So pros of this system I’ve seen so far are 1) really this does not smell. Far less smelly than the old box. And I should note that I didn’t change the pad right away. I waited about a week and a half because the first few days she really wasn’t using it. 2) Waaay less messy. No tiny trails of litter! My old regular litter box I had in a big plastic tote type container that she would jump in and out of to use simply to prevent litter tracking, and a rug outside the box to catch litter. It still made a mess. A spare pellet or bean might escape this box like once every three days and that’s it! 3) space saving! I’ve eliminated the need for the tote to contain litter and I don’t need the rug anymore either. So an overall much smaller footprint. 4) easier! Cleaning is really just a scoop a day now for me. She poops once a day I scoop it out. The pee pad only needs once a week changing. That’s far less work to me. This weirdly actually feels fun to clean now. Not like messy crumbs of litter half clumped falling everywhere like I used to deal with. As far as pee pad goes, I haven’t had to rotate the tray, I haven’t had pee spill over the side. No issues. Change the pad snd it’s maintenance free for a week. Cons... I really can’t think of any other than a cost standpoint. Although truly I don’t know if this will end up being any more expensive in the long run. The pee pads last long, even though they are slightly pricey. I’ve read a lot of reviews stating to buy the amazon brand pads which I plan to after I run out of the starter pack. With pinto beans instead of pellets that’s really super cheap. So besides the cost of the box initially I don’t think this is going to be much more expensive than buying traditional litter. Also FYI I discovered you can get a coupon on tidy cat breeze website for seven bucks off so something to keep in mind... didn’t find this out until after I bought mine but I don’t even care because it’s already made life way easier. So just go buy it. It’s worth it I promise.

I've been using this system for 3 years now. There are some flaws which I'll mention but I've been through so many different setups over the years and haven't found anything I like more. With that said, just looking at the negative reviews it's clear that part of why I love my setup is due to other things I've done as well so I'll outline that in case it helps anyone else. I've placed this inside an IKEA drawer unit on wheels (I think it's the SMÅSTAD unit) for easy cleaning. I cut out a portion of the back for the cats to enter. I use a puppy pad underneath the front side and I have a Litter Genie off to the side. To clean, I simply scoop the poop into the litter pale and rotate the litter pad tray. I set it up on top of the drawer unit so I can pull the tray out on bottom and rotate it or replace it. It's very easy to dump everything into the garbage and start fresh when needed. The drawer helps to contain any smell and the pellets. It's easy to sweep anything that doesn't stay on the puppy pad. The main reason for the puppy pad underneath is because there have been a few times a cat has peed, pooped, or puked over the edge (mainly our two elderly cats that have now passed). It just really simplifies cleanup. You will know you have waited too long to replace the litter pellets if it really starts to smell bad when you pull out the drawer to clean. I exclusively use the multi-cat litter pads because they hold so much more than the regular ones. I tried some different ones on Amazon and they all suck. I found that only the official ones actually contain the smell or absorb as much. I also buy the 7 lb bags of pellets because it's more cost effective and allows me to add a little extra or top off as needed. So far my biggest complaint is that you have to make sure you place the litter pad perfectly centered with the edges on all four sides sticking up against the side walls of the tray. If you don't, you will end up with pee underneath the litter pad. I really wish it had a locking mechanism to clamp onto the sides. But I've gotten pretty good at it and have only had that particular problem probably 4 times. Somehow it's also been possible for pee to end up in the little dips next to the handles a couple of times. Another small issue is that if the cats pee too much in one area of the multi-cat litter pad it will swell up big enough to press against the bottom of the grated area, soaking anything above it which can make things nasty. A tiny bit more height or less absorbent litter pads would avoid that. My final complaint is that over time some powder from the pellets along with specks of feces do build up in the grate on bottom. When I go to dump the pellets into the garbage can and put new ones in, a bunch of it falls to the floor which can be a bit gross. I've tried taking the whole bottom in along with the tray but then the litter pad slides forward, bunches up, and jams the tray. Then it's a mess on a whole other level. Thinking about this again, I might try just holding a small trash liner or a piece of cardboard underneath next time and see if that solves it. In the end, this works better than anything else I've tried to contain mess from litter, contain the smell, and simplify cleaning. Every time I've done the math this ends up cheaper than anything else I've tried so that's just the icing on top.

My original review along with several updates got way too long, so I'm re-doing my review after using this sifting box since February. My Conclusion: I highly recommend this product with the following modifications (you can find detailed instructions on YouTube in two videos by a lady who owns a cattery, which I recommend you watch before buying anything): 1. Ditch the tray. You can re-purpose it as a lap tray to eat off of while watching TV or doing homework, or to put under your pet's food dishes. But don't use it to catch the sawdust, as it's not deep enough and you'll have one heck of a mess in the tracks it slides in and out of to deal with when you go to empty it. Instead, I purchased a large size So Phresh litter box on Amazon which fits perfectly under The Breeze, giving a good 5" to 6" to collect sawdust. Now instead of dealing with a mess every time I empty it, and having to do so every 3 days, there is zero mess and I only have to empty it every 2 weeks or so. 2. Ditch the pellets that come with it or donate to a shelter or rescue. Instead, buy the pine pellets they sell for horse bedding, which isn't treated with chemicals and is incredibly cheap. I pay $5.99 for a 40 pound bag that lasts me months for two litter boxes. It works differently than the pellets that come with this system, soaking up urine and turning into sawdust, which falls through the slats into the container below. (Clay litter and clumping litter are unhealthy for both you and your cat, not to mention expensive, heavy to lug around and messy. If you don't want to switch to pine pellets, then ignore these instructions and follow another reviewer's advice on the best way to use the Breeze.) 3. Donate or repurpose the tray-sized pee pads and purchase large puppy pee pads instead. You'll want them to be larger than the So Phresh box. How to Set Up 1. Open and lay a puppy pee pad on the floor. 2. Put the Breeze box on top, centered on all sides of the pad. 3. Lift the pad and box up together and set them down on the So Phresh litterbox you bought for the bottom box. Press slightly on all sides to make sure it's aligned and secure. 4. Add 2" to 3" of the pine pellets. Note: Initially you may have to cover the pellets with your old litter that your cats are used to, and gradually use less and less until they transition completely to pellets. Instructions for Scooping 1. Scoop No. 2 as often as you'd like. It takes literally seconds per box. Some cats poop on top without covering with pellets, while others cover. Either way it's very easy to scoop the poop, as stirring the pellets will cause buried poop to rise to the surface. (Poo smells when they first go but the odor quickly dissipates as it dries.) 2. There is no need to scoop urine anymore with this system. No wet sticky mess or clumps of urine soaked litter stuck to the sides or bottom of the box! Pine pellets almost immediately turn to sawdust when it soaks up urine. All you have to do is to stir the pellets after scooping No. 2 to help the sawdust fall through the slats on the bottom into the pee pad lined box below. 3. You never need to dump the top tray unless it needs cleaned. Mine haven't needed cleaning yet in the 4 months I've been using them. Just add pine pellets as needed after scooping and stirring to maintain a 2" to 3" depth. When you start to see the sawdust through the slats, approximately every two weeks or so depending on how many cats and litterboxes you have, you'll need to empty the bottom box. This is the best part! 4. Open and lay a new pee pad on the floor or flat surface. 5. Pick up the Breeze box, leaving the full puppy pee pad in the bottom box, and lay the Breeze down on the clean pee pad. 6. With a grocery bag open and ready, pick up the full pee pad by the 4 corners, and simply place it in the plastic bag. Tie the bag and throw it away. 7. Pick up the Breeze box with the pad underneath, and place back on top of the bottom box, and you're done. No muss, no fuss. Takes literally seconds per box to empty and you're done for another two+/- weeks. Initially I used the tray before I bought the other litterbox to use for the bottom box, and it was a mess to empty. I could have emptied it every day or two, which might have worked better, but with the method I outlined, I only have to do it every couple of weeks and don't have any mess to deal with. With an actual litterbox underneath to collect sawdust, this system went from great to amazing. Keeping litterboxes clean has never been so easy and fun! I am absolutely in love with the Breeze using this system. I think I'd still use it even I used clay litter, but I'd do it differently, following other reviewers recommendations on how to use with regular or clumping litter. The Breeze is a decent size box, not too big or too small, sturdy and well made. The sides that snap on don't snap on correctly, so you have to use caution when lifting the box to shake it or they'll come off, but that's the only problem I saw with it. Using pine pellets eliminates the need to shake the box, so it's not an issue for me.

This litter system is genuinely life changing, and that’s not even an exaggeration. It’s improved both our lives re: cleaning and Miss Kitty’s re: using it. All the essay-length, updated-multiple-times reviews on here aren’t lying. It’s been about a year since we got it and it’s been worth every penny. So here’s my essay length review. Miss Kitty likes to pee in the same corner every. single. time. Without fail. That meant that when we still used regular litter, that corner was always extra gross. Didn’t matter how well the litter was designed to clump. Also the older Miss Kitty gets, the less she cared about keeping her feet clean, so she was tracking grody footprints everywhere. She also had litter stuck in the fur between her paws which couldn’t have been comfortable. And she was kicking the litter out and then grippin’ it in her paws, so she was tracking litter everywhere, no matter what we did to clean. Since she likes to sleep on our bed all the time, we were getting desperate for a solution. So I went searching and came across this (I think from a Reddit suggestion iirc). I read a bunch of the reviews, the multiple updates, the photos, the hacks. It sounded too good to be true. Good news: it’s true. The major pros: • The lack of smell. Oh man, that right there is one of the biggest pluses. Cat ammonia permeates everything and I hate the idea that I could become nose blind to it and then have family or friends over who could smell it. Scented cat litter was never an option because then Miss Kitty would walk by all perfumed but all that did was make me think of the fact that she just got out of the litter box. Ew. And then later that turned into scented cat ammonia when cleaning it out. Ew. This system is - somehow - 98% scent free, even when it’s time to change a batch of pellets. Truly magical. • The near lack of “ew” factor when cleaning out the poop or pee pad. You know what I mean, re: regular litter. • The pellets are advertised to work for 4 weeks, but we usually get about 6 weeks out of each batch. Each batch uses 3.5lbs of pellets and that looks like it isn’t enough if you’re coming from regular litter, but since it doesn’t need to absorb liquid, it’s definitely sufficient. They also mask the poop smell impressively well. There’s a little odor while it’s fresh, but the zeolite pellets dry it out quickly. • The pee pads are magical. I’ve used “magical” a few times, but I really mean it. Absolutely ZERO cat urine smell, no matter how full or even over-full they get. I don’t know how they do it. Based on plenty of other reviews, I’m pretty sure every new Breeze system owner accidentally lets a pad go too long at least once until it’s swimming in urine (gross) and then has a mixed bag of emotions of “ew!” and “how is there no smell??” We have to change the pad on a schedule because there will be no odor to remind us. With one cat, we change it once a week (the night before trash day). • Both the pads and pellets are available locally in PetSmart and Petco. No generics though. • Clean paws! No more disgusting footprints in the hallway. Her toe beans have never looked so perfectly clean and pink. She’s 20yo, so anything to help her hygiene helps her out. • No more litter everywhere. The pellets are too big for her to grip in her paws, so she can’t track them beyond the immediate vicinity of the litter box. • It’s easier to keep an eye on her health. Looking at her poop and seeing the color of her pee are good insights into her health and if anything changes, especially as she gets older. Also it’s really easy to use a dip strip indicator by just pressing it into the pee pad right after she gets out of the box. • The cover that flips back is great, compared to having to unclip the entire top each time. Makes cleaning out the poops easy, but keeps things covered and out of sight. It’s a small detail but it’s helpful. • Since there’s no regular litter with clay to conceal, the dried poop can just be tossed down the toilet. Makes it easier to clean more often. • Since the pellets dry everything out quickly and the pee is absorbed by a pad in the lower tray, the box just needs to be washed in between each batch of pellets, so about every 6 weeks. • Even with buying brand name pads and pellets, the annual cost of litter stuff is way, way lower than having to buy litter frequently. • Miss Kitty adapted to the new system right away. Fortunately, she’s never been picky when I’ve changed litter brands. I did a couple things for the first week to encourage her transition. I mixed a little regular litter in with the pellets for the familiar smell and feel. That shuffled out to the pee pad below over the week and then she was just left with the pellets. I put a couple old poops from the used litter in the new box, again to bring a familiar scent to the new system. And I left her old box out too for a week, but I left the used litter in there to discourage use of it. She was a little unsure the first evening, but after the first use, she never went back in her old box. • For people who are disabled/limited by lifting weight, picking up a 7lbs bag of pellets is way more feasible than 20-40lbs of litter or a box of used litter. Cons: • The Tidy Cats pellets and pads are pricey. That said, they are worth it for how well and how long they work. Some reviews talk about washing the pellets to extend their lifespan. I tried it just once out of curiosity, using the pet enzyme cleaner and a thorough rinse. It’s just not worth the gross hassle so I never did it again. Tidy Cat must have a stranglehold on the pellets because I can’t find an off brand, and if I somehow do, they’re back ordered or “we don’t know if these will be available again.” I wouldn’t think zeolite (the mineral they’re made of) pellets would be hard to find a generic of, but I’ve yet to. Even the pet stores don’t have their own generic versions. I haven’t tried generic pee pads yet, but the Tidy Cat ones work so well I’m fine with paying a bit more. • The pellets can be noisy. Miss Kitty loves rustlin’ in the box and those hard pellets against hard plastic can be fairly loud. I think she paws at the litter more now because she’s trying to cover the poop but it pretty much sits on top of the pellets no matter what she does. We tried getting the equine pine pellets that are dirt cheap and supposed to break down once they’re wet. But Miss Kitty apparently loved shredding those so much she was spending extra time rustlin’. All we ended up with was a messy pile of pine powder that was too much to fit in the lower tray. We gave up after a week. So we’re back to the louder, more expensive Tidy Cat pellets, but the pros vastly outweigh the cons. We got used to the sound in about a week or two. • Stepping on a pellet with your heel can feel like stepping on a Lego. With all her rustlin’ Miss Kitty still kicks litter out of the box. We have a litter pad outside the box - the kind with sizable holes and two layers so it’s easy to clean up (got it on Amazon too) - and that really helps catch them, but there’s still usually a few in the vicinity. We just have to be on top of cleaning the loose ones up. Also pointing the box opening towards the wall instead of the walkway really helped. The tray can be flipped to open either way - same direction or opposite direction of the box opening. Never thought I’d be evangelizing cat litter, but here I am. TL;DR just get it. You won’t regret it.

Interessantes Konzept, diese Cat Breeze, haben wir uns gedacht. Oben feste Pellets, Urin rinnt durch ein Gitter und wird von einer Matte aufgesaugt. Diese muss laut Hersteller nur ein Mal wöchentlich getauscht werden (pro Katze), Stuhl ist selbstverständlich trotzdem mit der Schaufel zu entfernen. Das interessante Konzept ist aber auch das einzige, was an der Toilette toll ist... Nun muss dazu gesagt werden, dass wir zwei Freigänger haben, die aber gerade im Winter gerne viel Zeit drinnen verbringen. Der Toilettengang wird überwiegend draußen erledigt (erfreulicherweise in Nachbars Garten und nicht in unserem). Unsere Kater bleiben jedoch nachts immer im Haus und nutzen die Toiletten dann, um uns großzügigerweise nicht zu wecken. Toilettengänge finden also nicht annähernd so oft statt, wie bei andere Katzen und daher müssen wir die Matten nicht so oft wechseln, wie vielleicht andere Katzenbesitzer. Länger als ein paar Tage habe ich mit dem Wechsel aber trotzdem nie gewartet, da unsere beiden Kater bereits nach einem Toilettengang keine Lust mehr auf die Toilette haben. Da gehen sie lieber aufs andere Klo (herkömmliche Bentonit-Streu), obwohl der Kollege schon ein Ei reingesetzt hat...Trotzdem entsteht viel mehr Müll als zuerst angenommen! Wir haben das Set im August 2023 gekauft, Wartezeit war länger als angegeben, da Import aus den USA. Die Streu gibt es in Europa auch nicht zu kaufen und muss jedes Mal aus den USA importiert werden. Und das ist mein Hauptgegenargument, denn nun stellen Sie sich Mal vor, Sie müssen jedes Mal, wenn Sie die Streu wechseln ein paar Wochen warten... Von den Matten gibt es günstigere Alternativen, aber für die Streu habe ich bisher keine Alternative gefunden. Ich habe es schon mit allen anderen Pellets auf dem Markt (Kanincheneinstreu, Tofu-Pellets, CatsBest etc.) probiert, aber alle verkleben das Gitter, sodass es die Reinigung noch aufwändiger werden lässt, als bei einem herkömmlichen Katzenklo (da hab ich gedacht, ich bin ein Sparfuchs und wurde eines besseren belehrt)... Nur eine Streu habe ich gefunden, die dem Original näher kommt (Zeolith), aber die kommt aus GB und seit die nicht mehr in der EU sind, sind alle Lieferungen mit Vorsicht zu genießen (eventuell Rücksendekosten etc.). Außerdem ist sie nicht wirklich günstiger (ein Paket 45€), der einzige Vorteil ist, dass sie schneller da ist, als die Pakete aus den USA. Dazu muss ich auch sagen, dass man beim Pelletskauf höllisch aufpassen muss und die Preise nur mit Mühe vergleichen kann, da manche Händler Liter angeben, manche Pfund und nur wenige Kilo. Ein weiterer Minuspunkt ist die Größe der Toilette. Unsere Kater sind alt (15+17) aber nicht groß. Sie passen gerade Mal so unter die Haube. Ja die Toilette ist kompakt, aber man muss halt auch eine kompakte Katze haben. Das einzige was ich an der Toilette gut finde ist: Sie hat ein tolles Design. Aber ich bin keine Toilettensammlerin und daher ist das auch kein Pluspunkt. Fazit: Alles in allem kann ich nur sagen, dass die Toilette der absolute Reinfall ist. Es gibt keine Vorteile. Hände weg! Machen Sie nicht den gleichen Fehler wie ich und denken, Sie sind ein schlauer Fuchs... Andere Streu funktioniert hier nämlich ganz einfach nicht. Wir kaufen jetzt eine automatische Toilette und hoffen, dass das besser klappt. PS: Wer will mir ein schickes Sammlerstück abkaufen? ;)

👍 Positive: • Litter system that does not use regular clumping cat litter • Tray for adding urine pad that can be changed weekly 👎 Negative: • Not a regularly sold item in Germany so it is expensive 👤 Good For: • Those who do not like clumping cat litter • Has a dedicated urine tray in which you can remove the sheet and get a sample to be checked by the vet easily. I have 2 Scottish Fold cat which I brought over from Japan when I started working in Germany. In Japan a very similar litter system is found but uses a different completely different type of litter, which I prefer over zeolite litter. However the system is very convenient when needing to take urine sample. It is too bad it is not sold as a regular item here in Europe as it is expensive to import from USA.

Très bien, plus d'odeur de pipi et plus de poussière.

Excelente arenero.

Here goes - this may be a long post but please persevere! This has to be the best litter system ever! I have, over the last 3/4 years spent hundreds on different litter systems for our Bengal, I even tried the automatic litter system at £130 and threw it away after only a couple of months. He refused to use anything other than a puppy training pad in a litter tray because of previous kidney-related health issues, and he was the first one to use this tray. He is now, after just a few weeks, properly litter-trained again. The system is so easy to use - I change the pads daily (I have 2 very large breed cats and 2 smaller breed cats) and the trays are washed out and litter completely changed once every 3-4 weeks. I had to clean out other trays/systems every 2/3 days previously. I will add though that I find the pads and pellets that come with the system very expensive. I use Amazon Basics pads at £9 for 40 (the refills for the system are a very costly £10 for 4) and there is very little difference in them. I also use a wood pellet (around £15 for a 30 litre bag) instead of the pellets that comes with the system (priced around £25 for a very small bag that will fill 1 litter tray once). Initially using the pads and litter provided, I found that after 3/4 days they stopped using the tray because they could smell the dirty litter. It does eventually dissolve but takes ages. The wood litter when wet turns to sawdust and falls through to the tray beneath and so every time they go to the toilet it is clean. Obviously poop is scooped when they do it, or as soon after as we can I would also say that you need an old paintbrush or similar to actually clean the seive tray as bits go tend to get stuck. It may seem an expensive system but honestly after the initial cost, and especially if you convert to the other pads and wood pellets, you will not look back.
