Can anyone say me how I use this item? I mean, do I add it to my cats' litter or it's just a cleaning product? Thanks in advance.

I use it in the litter box and on my carpets before I vacuum. Just sprinkle it out, a little goes a long way so watch out. If using it on the carpet I usually let it sit a while before vacuuming it up. You can also sprinkle it on furniture for a nice fresh scent.

You add it to your litter and it does do the job! I have multiple cats and it does help with the odor!

After I clean my box out of all poop and pee, then I sprinkle some of this on top of the littler itself. Makes litter smell so much better. The cats will eventually scratch it down into the litter and then I just add it again the next day. You only need a little at a time. I have a giant box for my 2 cats and it works wonders. Love it.

I just sprinkle it over the litter - just a dusting - after I remove the droppings. Even with litter that promises to control the odor, there is always that lingering smell, and this deodorizer kills that smell. I also sprinkle it in my kitchen trash. Its not for cleaning...just neutralizing odors.

I have not washed it yet. My cat is indoors only and I just wipe and or vaccum the excess cat hairs. It looks clean and there is no odor. When I do need to wash it I will post my experience. Word of advice, wash it in a front loader or a top loader washer that does not have a agitator.

I don't know if this will help but I bought a jar of the Cat Attract herbs and have used it in the past on the regular Precious Cat litter. I was using it to train two feral kittens to use a litter box and it was highly successful. I just took a goodly pinch of the Cat Attract herbs and sprinkled it over the top of the regular litter. Doing this might save you some dough--instead of buying the Cat Attract litter.

Yes, I use it and it works great. I can also use less of the yesterday's news litter so I am saving money there too. The YN litter with the Breeze Tidy cat system is the perfect combination. Don't use the pellets that came with the Breeze litter system, the cats don't like them and they don't work good. The YN works great and cats love it with the Breeze system. I used both and it's wonderful.

This is a common problem --even more so the older the cat gets. The fresh news will also be a issue with this. What I do recommend is called Great Choice Litter mat. I have used this with 6 cats and 99% of litter stays on the mat which is easily picked up and shake back into box. Easy on their feet and easy to wash also. Don't see on amazon--got mine at petsmart. I also use fresh step multi cat CLUMPING litter which my vet recommended so the combination of fresh step and Great Choice mat really helped us....... Hope that helps ya........

I would never put it near my cats food or litter. Their noses are so sensitive to all smells and odors. To keep their litter always smelling fresh and clean, I use Arm and Hammer Litter Deodorizer - sprinkle that in and it is awesome. This fresh wave product is great for keeping the house smelling fresh and clean from cooking, smoke, etc.I put it on tables and shelves around my house and by the two entrances into my house. Hope this helps.

I honestly do not clean my cat's box everyday. It's more like once a week. But in regard to you question it will not affect the product. The one thing you need to do with this product is use a clumping litter. As long as you do that you're golden. I've really enjoyed this box, I would highly recommend it.

I haven't used it for that -- but I do have 3 cats and 3 litter boxes. I spray the room where the boxes are. According to the promoter of this product, it does NOT mask the odor -- it completely removes it. So try it. Hopefully it will work. It's an enzyme product, which is supposed to "eat and digest" the odor.

Dr. Elsey's Precious Cat litter works amazingly well and is HIGHLY recommended by fellow Litter Robot owners. Clumps like cement with no gumminess or waste. One 40lb bag lasts me 3 months with two large male cats. Get it here for around $16, and if ur a prime member, with free 2-day shipping. Otherwise PetSmart carries it for around $18 per 40lb bag. Be careful with Amazon, tho. I've seen it as high as $26 with $15+ shipping. I live in a second story apartment, and LOVE that I can get UPS to deliver it to me free without my having to lug it up 18 stairs. Buy some... you won't be disappointed and ur LR will thank you...ur kitties, too ;-)

You can use either clumping or non- clumping. I was very disappointed in the box; it's made cheap. The fasteners came loose and spilled the litter. I stopped using it after a couple of days. As a new cat owner, I have been disappointed in the choice of available litter boxes. None of them do anything. What I hate most is having to get down on my knees to service them. Cats are jumpers so there is no reason a litter box has to be so low. I use clumping litter and have to take a putty knife to scrape it off the sides. I have been so disappointed in the available boxes that I have spent the last three months inventing a Litter Console that takes care of most of the problems we all hate. Mine is 90% finished; you push a few levers, and it does the cleaning. Anyone who hates servicing a dirty litter box will love it. I expect to have to mine finished in the next few weeks. It is not made of plastic and looks like a piece of furniture. If you want to check back with me, I will let you know when it is ready. My name is Frank, and my email address is frankrunnels@outlook.com Hope I have been helpful, Frank

I should have mentioned that it was my vet that recommended that I use it post declawing as it would be more hygienic for my cat. The small particles and dust from the other litter options could get trapped it the newly healing wound and irritate their paws. As my kitty became used to it from the declawing and u liked it so much.....I am using it as my daily litter for the past 4 years!

I use it for the Crystal type. Haven't tried other types of litter. Works well with what I use. Sorry couldn't be of more h help

I try to wipe it down daily. Usually it's just the small inner ledge that gets dirty, not the part that the cat stands on. I've never seen any urine spray from outside the toilet, but occasionally a little piece of poo here and there (I have no idea why, though). No matter what, it's way better than cleaning a cat box once the cat completes the training.

You have to roll the litter box until it is up side down. I hit the sides to remove the stuck on urine. Don't do this real hard. Then you roll it back, basically follow the directions right on it. Remove the litter tray and throw away. You can add more litter if needed. The cleaning action starts when you roll it over.

Mine did not take to it immediately. I tried the mixing of the granules with the regular litter and still they were not keen on using the Genie. I finally made them go "cold turkey" and took away their regular boxes. They did use the Genie but one of my cats is large and doesn't squat completely so urine was going into the mechanical areas that were not washed. The smell soon became apparent and with the effort it took to completely take it apart to clean it, I sent it back and went back to a traditional box. It is a nice concept but it just isn't worth the money and the difficulty with using it. Mine did not take to it immediately.

I don't mix it. I use it by itself and it 100% worked for my cat. She has never had an "accident" since I switched to this. It doesn't smell either. And ALMOST dust free. I live in a small NYC apartment so those are major factors for me. Soooo, even though I'd like to use an all natural litter, that is what caused our problems in the first place and this is all my kitty willuse now.

Hi Bethany, unfortunately for my case, this thing never worked. No vacuum at all. Even if it did, I think it will be too tiny to work for a cat litter.
