We have two Littermaid boxes, mainly for the 3 smaller and more fastidious cats, but the 'big boys' keep tipping them over. We try to encourage them to use a plastic tub that's almost as big as a regular bathtub. I could see the Cat Genie working for someone with one regular sized cat though, especially if they didn't have a lot of room. Hi April,

Sure you have to buy the solution, but with a regular box you have to buy litter, haul it to your car then into your house. One cartridge lasts up to 2 months which only costs you about $12.50.

The built-in operating cost is a deal killer. @Aaron - It is a pretty cool device but, sadly, not very practical or affordable. @Corvidae - I agree. The built-in operating cost is a deal killer.

That right there tells you it's a money pit. It's a neat idea, but the cost is too high and the latent subscription fee of having to buy solution for it makes it DOA as far as my cats are concerned.
