Cat puke? If the Roomba got to it before I did, what would happen?

I was wondering about this too. I'm surprised it hasn't been addressed in the multiple reviews I've read!

So glad it worked for you as well. I, too, had to put a soft towel on the lounger before my cat jumped in. She must not have liked the feel of the bed's cover.

Not too well, specially if your shag carpet is quite thick. The Roomba will eventually avoid it. We have one in our bedroom and when the Roomba gets to it ends up being unable to climb on to it and treats it like a 'wall' and avoids it.However we do have a shag carpet in the living room that is not that high pile, and the Roomba is able to work on it with no problems or snags.I guess it all depends on the height of your shag carpet/rug.

I would not recommend any vacuum without a HEPA filter being used for cat litter. No telling what type of virus/bacteria/germs it would put into the air. I would rather recommend gently sweeping it up then sterilizing your broom to prevent further contamination.

Pee is stinky but invisible. My 3 cats puke food, grass, whatever in chunks. That's visible. Once cleaned up, shouldn't stink. Pee does! Two arm chairs, loveseat to the transfer station, perimeter of family room carpet, new loveseat peed twice in 6 months, bottom edge of living room shears cleaned, carpet cleaned twice. Last straw, laying in bed, cat comes for pets and pees all over Spouse and bed. Banned to garage and yard forever!

Yes it does! I have 6 cats and they have their own room that I use it in. Never run this machine while people or animals are in the room, this can be deadly ! It take all odors out, it may have to run longer on some Odors but does the job . Read up on these machines before running them.

No. My cat also seems 2 vomit in the same spot and the brush doesnt damage the carpet. I used 2 use cleaner and paper towels but this brush works so much better. Plus its more convenient having everything i need all together. Hope this helps

This is an AIR purifier. It purifies the AIR you breath. It's not a carpet cleaner. If a cat has peed on your carpet, clean your carpet. Go buy a bissell....and also pick up a cat litter box while you're at it.

I would suggest keeping your cat out of house for at least a week after using. Iy can harm them if they ingest it or get it on thier paws.The odor is strong. Also if you use it repeat a few times then shampoo carpet with super HOT water. Good luck I know how bad fleas can get. Once out of control.

I would call The company on that. Ill say if you have fleas in your house on the carpet you should dust or with a layer of salt and leave it for like 2 days it will naturally dry them out and it will vaccum up later. I would do this while you treat the cat since that tends to be how they stay in the house. I'm not a fan of over doing chemicals.

I don't have a cat, so I can't answer that. I have machine washed, and machine dried the throw with no ill effects.

My cat got into it. I went outside and my bf was inside the house. All of a sudden as I'm walking back to the door, my bf goes, "OMG honey, HELP!!" I ran inside and he's holding my 6 month old cat in the air with the sticky pad totally stuck against his whole side! I was freaked out while laughing, but I wasn't sure if he'd be OK after I rip this thing off that's stuck to him completely! Eventually with careful prodding and picking, we got it off him but we definitely put the whole thing away after that! He's older now, I'm not sure if he'd get into it again, but if I thought I have fleas again, I'd take it out and give it another try. Not sure about the hot bulb, guess they'd get stuck first. lol.

Yes, I had a cat that had an accident because she was sick. Kept it all free from the mattress.

LoL my two cats are scared of it. But given how heavy the roomba is itself I don't think it would be a problem

Be very careful with this one.....My cat got too close and was sucked up into the vacuum....I can hear him purring but we can't get him out

It's hard for me to tell. I have five cats and they all vomit (hairballs, mostly), but they rarely pick the same spots. So I don't have any good experience with what you're describing. I haven't used this tool in a while, because I eliminated all the carpeting and rugs in the house due to the cats vomiting so much. When I was using it, it didn't seem to harm the carpet at all. Some of it, I imagine, has to do with how much pressure you use when cleaning. I'm sorry I couldn't be more helpful. Good luck!

Hun you need to change your cat's food. Its not normal to throw up alot. My cat used to do it and it was due to a chicken allergy. I stopped feeding her chicken based foods and she doesnt throw up anymore. Fix that problem first, then get the robot :)
