As life long cat lovers and litter box cleaners, dear husband and I can tell you the Cat Genie is WONDERFUL. It works very well to take care of the litter needs of our three [yes 3] cats, two of whom are over 15 pounds.

Previously, we used a giant sized littermaid [self scooping litter box] for multiple cats. It was, quite simply, not up to the task of taking care of the excreta of our three big boys. It required at least as much time as a regular litter box to care for and did not take care of the odor problem at all. By contrast, the cat genie is a an outstanding device. Rather than being a litter box, the Cat Genie is truly a functioning, self flushing toilet for cats.

The cat shown in tHe picture provided is out of proportion, our cats, one Maine Coon and two Savannahs, two of whom are over 37" long fit just fine in the Cat Genie. Once installed and the cats are introduced, the Cat Genie works exceedingly well.

Yes, a little amount of the plastic granules which reach the floor, but no more than the amount of regular litter granules that reach the floor. These are easily swept or vacuumed up once a week or so.

Our cats [aged 5 years and 5 months when we bought it] had no problem adapting to the Cat Genie. It relieves our place of the smell inevitably arising from even the most well attended litter box. As we feel is responsible, we feed our cats a 95% meat diet as befits their evolutionary heritage as obligate carnivores. Even the rather stinky poop that arises from feeding cats a meat diet, the Cat Genie has not only relieved, but eliminated that significant odor problem.

Our Cat Genie is installed in our basement furnace closet which has water input and sewer lines easily available and which has a cat door for ease of cat access. DH installed the machine without needing a plumber's assistance.

The machine macerates even the largest of poops so that everything easily flushes down the sewer line. Located where it is, the Cat Genie's operating sounds are rarely heard. This location makes our bathrooms clear of cat smells and provides our felines the privacy that they enjoy for their bathrooming.

Most of the complaints noted above seem to come from people who have no experience with and whose cats have not yet had the opportunity to try the Cat Genie. In our combined over 100 years of cats living with us, we've never found a better solution to the litter box problem.

The Cat Genie is now on the third generation. It now automatically cleans the litter and flushes as soon as the cat is done using the genie. The cost is quickly covered by the savings of time and money realized from no longer having to go out and buy litter box supplies.

This is a GREAT PRODUCT that works exceedingly well. If you have not trained your cat to use your human toilet and to flush after using, the Cat Genie is just the ticket!!!
