Did you know that a cat that is allowed to go outdoors has an average life expectancy of less than 3 years, while a cat that is kept strictly indoors can expect to live to the ripe old age of 15-18 years? It shouldn’t come as a surprise, since outdoor cats are at risk for getting hit by a car; being attacked by a dog, coyote, or the neighborhood bully tom cat, contracting an infectious disease like feline leukemia, or simply getting lost or taken. These hazards all take their toll.
It would seem that these reasons would make a compelling argument to keep all cats indoors, but many people still choose to let their cats go outside. One of the reasons often cited by those who let their cats go outside is avoiding all the hassles of dealing with a litter box. Let’s face it: litter boxes can be smelly, messy, and dirty, and require daily attention. Most people don’t want their house to smell like a giant litter box but they don’t have the time or the inclination to scoop the litter on a daily basis. Even if they make time for this household chore, scooping a litter box is no one’s idea of a good time. Fortunately, there is an easy solution.
The LitterMaid™ team has developed a self-cleaning litter box that takes the chore out of litter cleaning and provides you and your cat with a constantly clean, odorless environment. The LitterMaid™ Self-Cleaning Litter Box automatically scoops the litter and empties the waste into a sealed, disposable receptacle. How it works is easy. Once the cat leaves the unit, sensors are triggered, turning on the timer for the cleaning cycle. The unit will not start a cleaning cycle while the cat is in the box. After 10 minutes the cleaning cycle starts. If the cat re-enters and leaves the litter box before the initial 10 minutes have elapsed, the timer will automatically reset and delay the beginning of the cleaning cycle for an additional 10 minutes. Not only will your cat love the LitterMaid™ Self-Cleaning Litter Box, but you also will love how easy it is to keep your house smelling fresh and clean.
