I'm looking to buy an automatic cat litter. I found a really cool one on Drs. Foster and Smith for about $150. Does anyone here have an automatic cat litter? If so, I would appreciate suggestions.

Thanks!

The Litter Robot is expensive, but from the reviews I've read it's the best. When my cats lose the weight they need to I plan on getting one! DO NOT get a Littermaid. I would honestly invest in the Litter Robot if you're going to get one. The Littermaid and most other "raking" litter boxes will cause a big mess.

I don't recommend the Littermaid, I had one and I spent more time cleaning the rake than I would have just scooping the box.

boy, i just don't get that. i have not had much difficulty at all with mine. i have to unstick the rake maybe once a day - some days not at all. the newer ones come with a scoop that has tines on the end that fit perfectly into the rake to make it easy.

i'm probably going to have to get a 4th, since i can't seem to rehome this kitten.

I had mine quite a few years ago, maybe they've improved them since then, or maybe mine was just junk. If it works for other people then that's great because I love the idea of them... it just didn't work out for me unfortunately.

I have scoop free and I loved it until my kitty decided she didn't like crystal litter
. If you get that one try your cat out on crystals first. I might try putting clay litter in there, but I heard it isn't recommended, but shoot if it's a $150 ugly purple thing sitting there might as well try

Well i did some research on the catgenie and from my understanding you have to hook it up to some type of water ? If that's the case i cant buy that one. As for the Litter robot, my fat kitties will not fit in that lol.
