I have 4 cats that use this box. However, like I said in my review, it does need to be a bit taller. You'll have to leave the lid up about 4".

Don't worry about the tiny specks unless they are moving> The ground up veggies in the BFG are normal. We have used this food for several years and are very happy with it. Be sure to note that the BFG (before grain)is very different from the new Purrrrfect Bistro that is sold at Petco. PB has ground cellulose(cardboard) as a filler.We are very keen on what goes into our kitties and think highly of Merrick's Before Grain #1. but more importantly our cats thrive on it.

Hi Sara, I was just wondering if you two cats were getting along with the addition of the two diffusers. I really hope so. No need to answer if you have no wish to. I was just thinking of you and your little ones. Best wishes, Tracey

I started our kitten out with Littermaid and had no problem. You might want to let it run a couple times to let the kitten get used to the noise and movement. Kittens tend to play around quite a bit in the box and if it turns on before they are done it might scare them into not wanting to go back in. If it is a really small kitten I would recommend using another box for a short time just till they get used to litter.

My cats had no problem, Mix the two litters together at first(a little used litter too, so it smells like "bathroom"). Then try using all crystals. If you make the switch gradual they should adapt.

I do, as one has the Omega Fatty Acids for cardiovascular health, and co sequin is for joint health. Both occur naturally in the body. My cats are 11 years old and my vet recommended both twice a day. Sometimes, the Welactin can cause a little nausea, so may need to understand fm the literature best way to give. I gave both with food, and cats are doing very well

That is exactly what I have done, started out with all Cat Attract and now just using about 33% of the box with it. Using regular NON_SCENTED litter to mix in. Seems the scented ones confuse the issue. This has been wonderful for us training a feral cat. She has 100% accuracy now :)

My kittens didn't have this problem. I would contact your vet. FYI, I have since moved to the Wellness CORE Kitten food since it is actually more economical per oz, seems more wholesome, and my kittens prefer it to this.

I have 3 cats. I have hat the LR for almost 2 years now with no problems. It is AWESOME! I clean out the base 2 x a week.

buy the small if your kitten is small. Don't ever leave your cat unattended with this. She might hang herself. Be sure to get your cat chipped -- actually some vet clinics can get you hooked up with low income chipping if you are low on cash..... My actual cat uses the medium but as her head is small she can sort of try to wriggle out of it. So I end up not really using it at all.....

I originally got the chicken and tuna flavored ones through our vet, but the price was twice as expensive as through Amazon. Then I ordered the unflavored ones through Amazon. My cat is also a picky eater, but when I mix the powder with his tuna, he just eats it up. No problems.

Hi Melissa, I did use it on my two pits when they where pups, just less of the amount! The vet said it was perfectly fine to do so!! I still use it to this day and they are older, I Love it! **This is on there web page!

My dogs are smaller than some cats. Kittens may be too small there was a review I saw that said really light animals might not trigger. It is very sensitive though. A pounce would probably trigger

I know this was posted a long time ago, but I'm adding a reply in case anyone is still reading. My kitties love things that are typically no cost....When I eat a Nutrigrain bar, I fold the wrapper into quarters (lengthwise), and then tie a knot in the center. It crinkles AND flies around when they bat at it. It's one of the best things I ever did; you just have to watch for fraying and then toss it. It usually takes a few days, unless one of my kittens is going nuts. The Colorful Springs are a huge hit, and inexpensive, and they make noise when they roll across a hard floor.

Our big male "Precious" cat is the biggest and most spoiled cat (or one of them) in the world. This is the ONLY dry food he will eat!!! Of course, this is after he is playing his tricks to try and get "people" food (salman, tuna, etc.) He does know when "enough is enough" when we refuse to give in to him too much, and finally will go right to this one dry food--one big bowl will last him about 2-3 days, depending on how much we "fall for his tricks" and give in to him in small quantities--canned tune, salmon, etc. (people food). He is one smart, funny "fat cat". Good Luck! The bag does indicate it is from Pacoima, CA USA. Dick Van Patten donates to local animals charities. 100% satisfaction guaranteed. 1-800-829-4493 or www.naturalbalanceinc.com. This is not to say this food may not someday harm our cat (our previous cat died due to poison ingredients from a (reputation animal food chain--and a horrible death is all I care to say). We feed "Sammy" the best (or what we thought was the best recommended by our Trusted VET) but Sammy is gone. I ONLY CAN SAY THAT it is horrifying to see a beloved loved pet die slowly and you have no idea why--the vet's didn't know--until the news came out on the media. So, use your best judgment and research what your animal is eating. But, in all truth, we never know. It is heart-breaking. That is all I know; and probably only the ones who do the damage will ever know. GOOD LUCK AND GOD BLESS YOUR PET AND YOURSELVES AS WELL. We can only do the best we can do!

By 7 mo. a kitten of an average sized breed will definitely be heavy enough for the Litter Robot. I started my cats out with it as kittens at about 3 mo. old. They weren't quite heavy enough at that point, but I just pushed the "cycle" button for them regularly for a couple weeks until they were heavy enough to activate the sensor. It was still easier than scooping and it helped the cats get comfortable with the LR at a young age.

Had no problem with my fussy girl when I put it in wet food first thing in the AM but who knows with cats. It was vet recommendation and I swear it has prolonged her life. I can't imagine that human quality omega wouldn't be okay for a cat but don't know about the dosage. I would ask the vet. Occasionally I have had pharmacists be helpful with info about the quality of a product/med veterinary vs human although they can't tell proper dose for animals.
