Not sure. I am using it for a cat indoors, who feels a need to mark all cat beds so other cats wont use them. It is working somewhat, but if he gets mad enough, he will still mark. Determined cat!

We have 3 cats with *very* different personalities, and they all switched quite easily. One good way to facilitate the process is to put the old litter box right next to the Genie, and stop cleaning the old litter box. Cats are so opposed to a dirty box they'll be motivated to try the Genie. I also *highly* recommend using the sidewalls - we have 1 "scatterer" and are saving a lot more granules now.

no, if the cat is outside it might get caught on something and the cat would be stuck there.

I really don't think anything will keep cats from scratching on whatever is in the house, but Oliver seems to be using this scratching post more often and my chair and door facings a lot less. He uses this post a lot more than the cat tree covered in carpet. Since he totally destroyed the small patch of sisel on that tree I figured he like the texture so I purchased this post. Don't know about your cats, but he is choosing this post over other things in the house now. Good luck on whaterver you decide to do about your cats' scratching.

Yes if you put the cat out of the bedroom and close the door. In all seriousness, it might help, but I don't have any animals so I really don't know. Maybe if you buy two quilted pillow protectors.

There is a separate product that is a cat repellant that discourages them from scratching on specific surfaces. The Feliway wipes are designed to provide a scent that calms the cat and makes cats feel they're in a familiar, secure place.If you used it to discourage scratching , I think it wouldn't work due to creating scent of familiar place, and cats tend to scratch in a familiar place.The cat scratching repellant works better. I've trained my cat not to scratch places with it.

Depends on both the cat and person using it. For us it helped with our cat's odor, a benefit for us. He did not seem to care about it at all. The only thing our cat cared about was stepping in any of his mess. So the cleaning stayed about the same.

I bought it to repel aley cats from my driveway. There are some signs of diminished presence but I don't swear by the effectiveness of the gadget. It is supposed to cover a specific area, if your cats stay out I hope it works for the dog. Less poop to deal with is always nice.

Sadly no, but the "staircase" is the best deterrent I've found in a litter box w/o making it too much of a challenge for the cats to care to overcome. I agree with folks who've said the answer is in the placement of the box. Paired with a scooper w/ rounded edges, this is the best box imaginable. We call ours the "spa"!

I usually keep one and move it around. I have a small house, but it seems to affect my cat in the room it is in and surrounding rooms

Yes. Because it scoops. Each time it would endure a clean box each time the cat went to u see e it

Unfortunately no, but ive heard that putting dog urine (nasty i know) would help by putting it around the border of your yard. This product helps with when a cat urinates and you need to clean it up and get rid of the smell but it is good to put around if that stray cat was there because itll erase its "territory"

I keep a throw rug underneath the litter box, that seems to help. I have used an extra large towel under the box and that helps too.

I don't think so because cats generally want to cover up their elimination. Plus, their stuff stinks pretty bad, so you definitely want to use cat litter for the benefit of you and the cat.

Yes, it works fine. The crystals work to dry the poop before it is pushed into the "storage area" so it can stunk for a while, but after it gets moved it is the same as if the cat buried it. You can adjust the time that the box waits before "pushing."

That all depends on your cats digging technique. If he or she is a digger then put in more litter. The good thing about this one is it's minimal dust. Regardless whether it's a lot of litter or a little bit, you'll only scoop up what's left there whether it's pee or poop, it will still be the same volume you're scooping out whether it's a lot of litter or not. The more litter there is the less chances it seeping through to the bottom of your litter box which will make it dirty faster. Sometimes too much litter and the cat will go crazy digging - all depends on your cat's bathroom preference.

I would imagine it would take care of the smell. I had a bath rug peed on and after throwing it into the wash with only the fizzion sprayed on the spot, it didn't smell or have any hint it was soiled.
