Litter Kwitter

Has anybody used one of these?

http://www.litterkwitter.com/en/index.php

We have two cats, both litter tray users, and I'm considering getting one of these. I scoop their litter tray regularly, so we don't go through tons of litter, but the litter tray does take up quite a space. They are also kickers, so I have to hoover than area more often than normal, and would much prefer them to use the loo!

The main things I'm worried about is it not working so well because we have 2 cats.

Ive also read about cats starting to poo on the floor by the toilet etc. and other problems people have encountered.

Any advice, tips or general info from people who have used one would be much appreciated! :j

    I teach my cats ''tricks'' and thought very hard about this, not least as we all used to travel a lot and it would have been handy in hotels over a litter tray BUT cats have a psychological need to scratch and cover. Given the choice they will choose a litter tray.

    This told me all I felt I needed to know and we decided litter trays remain the best option for our cats. Our pet cats are very clean and never have problems with litter tray use, so we decided to not ''mess'' with this and continue using litter.

    My answer would be, yes, its very possible you train them to use the loo, many people do! but it might not be in the cats' best interests for their happiness/well being.

    Would they form an orderly queue??
  • Looks good as long as they learn to flush too! :rotfl:
    I wish I would take my own advice!
