stick/cordless/small vac that picks up cat litter?

Thread Starter 
Has anyone found a lightweight stick vacuum (I'd LOVE cordless, but not required) that picks up cat litter? With 3 cats, I do a ton of vacuuming, especially near the cat boxes because of the tracked litter. I hate using my big vac, but every cordless I try doesn't work well getting the cat litter off the floors! Any recommendations?

I'm sure there are some good battery ones out now, but I just wasn't impressed with the dirt devil I had tried, so decided on a handheld AC power instead as they just have far more powerful motors IMO.

I use this for the litter station, always plugged in, just sitting right next to the boxes:

Its small, powerful, and dang loud, heh.

Ducman69 I have the same Eureka hand held vacuum. I bought it for the carpeted stairs and the rug Festus loves sleeping on. It does a good job sucking up litter and cat hair.

I also use the Hoover Flair upright stick vacuum for the cat litter. It does a good job picking up litter off of hard floors. I do not recommend this one if the litter box is in a carpeted room.

I use an Electrolux Harmony Ultra Quiet Canister HEPA Vacuum for my hardwoods and adore it. It's a bit pricey, but very much worth it (and I definitely purchased mine on sale). It strong enough to suck up every scrap of litter and even litter dust.

I don't know if you want a stick, like a small upright, but in the RV space is a real issue. We found a hand held (we've tried most of them LOL) that is amazing. It was expensive (IMO) for a cordless - but two years into it, worth every penny. It's the Black & Decker Flex: http://www.amazon.com/Black-Decker-F.../dp/B002FQJW4W

I think that's the one I got for my mom's house bc it is mostly bare and hardwood floors. It's great. and I fully expect to inherit it when the time comes.
