Purina Tidy Cats Litter Box System, BREEZE System Starter Kit Litter Box, Litter Pellets & Pads

I have 4 indoor only male cats and this system is a life-changer! It removes the dust everywhere problem of using even "dust free" litter. I do now have some stray pellets because of an over zealous cat flinging them while burying his deposit! But they're so easy to sweep up and put back into the box. The urine pads are fantastic and swell up due to a gel in them that absorbs lots of liquid. The boxes are beautiful; although my boys are too big to use them with the white tops on...talking about just the regular size unit. By removing the tops the cats fit better into the boxes and go where they're supposed to "go". With the solids remaining on top of the pellets it's simple to remove them. I am SO happy I saw this in someone's house and asked them about how they liked it before I got it. Btw, they also RAVED about how fabulous the system is. Honestly, imho this system is really a life-changer and worth every penny, not that it's expensive because it's not. Also the smell is gone too. They must have a deodorizer in the pads because I smell nothing anymore. SO much easier to change the pellets and the pads than scooping heavy, hard, smelly used cat litter. Less trash too. So far the pellets are the original ones and it's been well over 4 weeks; although not all 4 cats have adapted to the changeover yet. Try it! Buy it because it's about time someone invented a new system that actually works. And is affordable too! I bought 4 boxes and may have to get 2 more after I live with it awhile and see how the boys "share" them.

I love my cats, but I may just love this litter box more. I switched from clay litter several years ago, after discovering that the clay dust was irritating both to my newly adopted-cat and to my visiting mom. We tried several different types of litter before settling on the popular brand of pine pellet litter. It's a pretty decent product in terms of odor control and practicality, but OH! The tracking!! Sawdust all over my floors; it was like living in a barn. When company came around, it was mortifying. If they stayed long enough, the inevitable little sawdust footprints would begin to appear all over my dark wood floors. Company: "what's that??" Me: "um, it's...cat litter...I don't know what got into them...they have never done this before...wait, don't leave..." I found the Breeze system during one of my exhaustive searches for the perfect litter; I'm sure my fellow cat-lovers can feel my pain. I liked the idea of the grates at the bottom for the urine to pass through and be absorbed by an odor-controlling pad. Even better was the promise that the pellets wouldn't break down and track all over my house. I thought the price was a little steep, what with having to buy the wee-wee pads on a regular basis, but I was intrigued. And desperate. When I received my brand spanking new catbox, I proceeded to empty and wash out the old box and just pop the new box in its place without much fanfare. In my experience, felines are less likely to reject something new if you just act as if nothing is different. Just put it down and walk away. The instructions recommend leaving the old litter box out and just not maintaining it, so that the cats will prefer to use the clean Breeze box, but my bathroom is way too small. If I put two catboxes in the bathroom, I won't be able to fit myself in there, so no. Instead, I mixed some of the pine pellets in with the Breeze pellets and I put a little bit of the old used litter in the bottom drawer, on top of the wee-wee pad, so it would smell familiar to them. Then I crossed my fingers. As the days passed, I couldn't believe how clean my floors remained. As promised, the pellets remain in one piece, so there's nothing to stick to their paws and track everywhere. Oh sure, I'll find the occasional pellet or two on the floor by the catbox, but that's nothing. It only takes a second to sweep it into the dustpan and toss it back in the box. It's absolutely nothing compared to what I have been through. The pine pellets that I added to the Breeze pellets broke down as usual, but instead of sticking to their paws and ending up on my floors, the sawdust simply fell through the grates at the bottom and onto the wee-wee pad beneath. Genius! Another reviewer here said he uses this box with the pine pellets instead of the Breeze pellets, and I may give that a shot as well, since I have leftover pine stuff anyway. I'm just afraid that too many of the pine pellets will cause the dreaded tracking problem again. The way I have it now is about a 60/40 mix (give or take) of Breeze pellets to pine pellets. I only put half of the bag of Breeze pellets in the box to mix in with the pine. My cats DID have an adjustment period of about a week, complete with both of them giving me the stink eye for several days and one leaving a massive poop at the front door as a sign of her displeasure. I gave her my sternest "Nono, bad kitty" and "the look" of disapproval as I scooped the poop and placed it in the new litterbox for her to see where it belongs. I threw in a few additional stern mommy looks for good measure as I scrubbed and disinfected the scene of the crime. The guilt trip must have worked, because she deposited her next poop in the Breeze box like I told her to. So far so good. I'll be brutally honest here - this stuff does nothing to control poop odor. You pretty much have to scoop out the poops as soon as you can. This may not be an issue if you're lucky enough to have a remote spot for your catbox, like a basement or spare bathroom. In my case, my one and only bathroom is the only place in my apartment for the catbox, so I have to be on poop alert at all times. Let's be honest, though. Poop is poop and it's gonna stink. That's why the air-freshener business is booming. The real odor culprit is urine. Raise your hand if you have ever tried a new brand of cat litter, only to walk into your house a few days later to find it smelling like a truck stop urinal. Few things are worse than that, but the good news is that the Breeze system eliminates urine odors REALLY well. They tell you to change the pad once a week for one cat, but in my house, it holds up for 8 - 10 days with two cats and NO urine odor. My cats love to drink plenty of fresh water, so they do pee quite a bit. I don't know if the pine pellets that are mixed in are helping with the odor control; that's certainly a possibility. I guess I'll find out when I run out of pine pellets to mix in with the Breeze pellets. The best news of all is that for the first time in years, I am living without cat litter tracked all over my house. This is the first time in years that my floors have not needed sweeping/vacuuming on a daily basis, sometimes twice a day. I debated whether to give the Breeze system 4 or 5 stars, because of the poop odor thing, but ultimately it has changed my life for the better, so 5 stars it is. ~ A word about flushability. Some here have said that they just flush the poop with a few of the pellets stuck to it down the toilet. I called the Breeze hotline on the box and was told that they absolutely do not advise flushing the pellets down the toilet. They will also send you coupons if you ask. :) ~

I purchased this litter box after several people recommended to me. It fits perfectly inside a cabinet that I purchased that conceals the box so it's not sitting out in plain site. Approx, Height =10.5" Nice smooth texture appearance and putting it together was so easy. 3 steps and it's ready. I am new to the pellet system as I have always used kitty litter for my cats. My little 5 week old kitten is already checking it out and doesn't seem to be having any trouble using it. Delivery was delayed in transit, so instead of next day delivery, it took 3 days. Very sturdy and the pellets have a pleasant smell. If you're on the fence because of price or just not sure how the pellets work, Give it a try! I am very happy with my purchase!

I read several reviews and I kept looking for one that specified on a multi-cat (3 or more) home. I have 2 adult cats 13 & 15yrs and 2 young cats 1yr & 3mon. So I bit the bullet and ordered this product so I could review it for others in my cat situation. THE PROS: A. YES, YES, YES! Kills the urine order problem. Couldn't be happier. I'm a real paranoid cat owner who always worries about odor. We changed our box 2-3 times a week. The cats took to it right away. Make sure you put it the same place as your old box. We were keeping the old box in case they hated it, but actually they loved the Breeze because it was cleaner with no odor. B. So much easier to clean! The hardest part for us was to make a habbit of scooping. We never had scooping litter, so we weren't scoopers hence the several litter changes per week. I think that was the hardest part honestly. SCOOP TIP: Scoop when the poop is dry if possible. It's easier to scoop and the pellets fall back into the box when you shake the scooper rather than stick to the poop and get thrown away. (remember the pellets aren't cheap & you need them for the whole month!) C. It's the size of a standard size litter box. The adult cats are 13lbs each repectively. I was worried about my fat cats sqeezing in there or not using it because they were crammed. It is a tighter fit for them, but worse come to worse you can keep the top part (the walls) off the Breeze and it "opens up" the box more. But it wasn't necessary for us. The fat cats use it fine with the walls. THE CONS: A. It does track. If you have diggers, it tracks. Either they dig it out of the box or they take it with them in a final dig in their paws.It doesn't track a lot, maybe right outside of the box (we don't have a mat by the box. We are considering) and only a few pieces track. But we have a 3mon kitten who flings those pellets all over the floor and I'll tell you what...when you step on those pellets in the middle of the night you know it! It's like stepping on rocks! B. The pad isn't made for 4 urinating cats. The first time I waited the week like instructed just to see. No odor at all still but when I opened that tray HOLY CRAP! It was like a SEA of urine! If I had waited one more day it would've spilled over the edge of the tray! The pad was so saturated it could've been wrung out like a wash cloth easy 3 times! So with a steady hand I made it to the sink and took care of it. We now change the pad every 4 days and it's perfect. When the 3mon old gets older we may have to do it every 3 days. The pad does absorb well; it's very much like bed wetting pads with the layer of plastic on the bottom. In the end, it's SO much easier for a multi-cat home. Anyone will tell you that the box is the worst part about cats (indoor). It's the chore no one wants and if you're like me (a paranoid) it's perfect! The only human maintenance is hose down the Breeze inside & out once a month when you change the pellets and to wash the tray every time you change the pad. That's what we do; it just makes sense. I will admit that the cost can be a bit more. That's why I rated it a 4 star. (The pellets run 11-14.00 a bag and the pads run 8-10.00 a pack of four). We pay a bit more than usual because we have to change the pad more. So multi-cat owners just know that ahead of time. I hope this has helped those in my situation. I apologize that it's so long, but I wanted to be as honest as possible. We are a cat box hating home, so this was like our much needed relief.

Short answer: This is the BEST litter system you can have in your home for ALL of the issues you face with litter boxes: Cost/Urine Smell/Tracking. I will start out by saying that we have 7 cats in the apartment. I personally have 5 and my roommate has 2. I first bought this system on August 13, 2015 and I'm just reviewing now as I like to wait and see how products work for me after a while before I review. I started with one system to see how it would be and kept my traditional litter box for about 4 days. My 3 kittens got big enough where it was clear that I needed another litter box but I was so, so, so, SO over the litter being tracked everywhere with the 2 adult cats and the kittens constantly in and out of it. It felt like all I was doing is sweeping up tracked litter. So, I decided to try this system to see if it helped with that issue. The reviews were excellent, so I went for it. I figured that it may be a little gross but I would return it if it didn't work for me and my cat family-luckily returning it was NEVER an issue because I love this system. The cats were very interested and at first would only poop in the Breeze, I think because they didn't understand how to cover their pee. But the thing is that they don't have to cover their pee with the Breeze, it just goes down the grate into the pad. I was so impressed with the fact that there was NO smell and tracking is just the pellets-easy to pick up and toss back in because no matter what, cats will kick some out. I bought a tiny little dust pan at the 99 cent store to quickly pick up several at a time (and not touch them and have to wash my hands frequently) and pellets on the floor vs little granules is a HUGE improvement. Much more easy to contain and your home doesn't feel like one big litter box with litter all over the place. After about 4 days I removed the old box and ordered by second Breeze. When my new roommate moved in we got a 3rd Breeze and it's a good amount of boxes for the 7 cats. If we did the recommended amount of Breeze boxes for 7 cats we would have about 15+ boxes and that's just NOT necessary. Of course, I work from home and can scoop out the poop consistently (I'l get to the poop situation a little later in my review). If you have lots of cats and are away from home for long periods then you should get extra boxes-I think that the amount that they suggest is overkill but it IS a good idea to add more pellets than what they system comes with. I suggest you buy the system, see what I mean and order extra pellets sooner than later, I should have done that prior to when I really needed more, because the cats seemed happier with extra pellets and they were able to cover poop better. I've tried many brands of litter and my old litter box was the kind with the hood and the swinging door but that didn't stop the tracking issue. The bottom line is that the same things happen with any litter: you get tracking, and one of your hobbies is trying to contain it, because stepping in it SUCKS, having it all over your house SUCKS. Another problem: you may have a few days of a stink free litter box, but no matter how tight clumping litter can be, or how good it is at odor control-you'll get bits that fall off and after a few days you have a pee smell that will only go away when you clean the whole box out, and a few days later you'll have the same problem. But you know this. With The Breeze System you don't have these problems. First off, the pad that goes underneath holds A LOT of urine and it contains the urine smell almost TOO WELL. If you want a litter box that makes you forget what it's like to have a smelly pee box-this is the only solution. It will ONLY smell once it is beyond full, so try to remember to check the pad every couple of days. It's not the end of the world if it gets over full. Just put on gloves and drain into your toilet or a bathtub. It's not the funnest thing in the world but it's not THAT bad either. I think I push it by forgetting until I start to smell it, but I can't seem to get to it before it's beyond full! And I'm a bit ashamed to say that with all of these cats I'll change the pads probably every 2 weeks! But I have never had an over flow problem...I haven't pushed it THAT far. However, I do have an out-of-sight/out-of-mind issue with changing the pad, and that's just because it doesn't smell. So, having extra pee to deal with draining if you forget to change it and not smelling pee is FAR better than CONSTANTLY smelling pee (like you do now). =/ As far as the pellets go, they are like rocks. They will not disintegrate and probably last forever. The only reason you'll need more is because the pellets stick to the poop. What I do is scoop up the poop and shake it in the scooper so the loose pellets fall off so they aren't wasted. One reviewer said that she washed the pellets after a few weeks. I have done this three times since I have had this system. What I do is dump the pellets into a the plain litter box that I used for when the kittens got to the "litter box" stage of their lives. Then I soak them in hot water in the tub for about 20 minutes, then I add Natures Miracle and let it soak some more. Then I rinse, dump them back into the Breeze box and leave outside in the sun so it can drain and dry. The pellets are like new, and smell like Natures Miracle. I'm sure you can do this same thing with any other cleaner, or none at all. The point is to get the old poop that is stuck to the pellets is removed and you have good-as-new pellets and saved money. DA POOP! Now, the issue with poop is that the cats will cover it but because it's not like traditional litter, it cannot be completely covered up due to the nature of the pellets, so if your cat dumps an extra nasty, smelly pile-you will smell it, the smell WILL travel. But that can also happen with traditional litter. Like I said before, extra pellets in the box is the way to go, and helps in this regard. A good thing is that you (and your cats) will have a cleaner litter box because you will be getting rid of the poop much more frequently than you are now. If you're interested in any "cons" here they are: -The pellets are loud when the cats are kicking it around. If you're a light sleeper and the box is close to your bedroom (or in it) and you have an energetic cat who likes to really go to town on kicking or covering-it will probably wake you up. BUT I will also say that I am a light sleeper and at first it did startle me when they were in the bathroom, but I pretty much got used to the new noise. -The pellets do come out of the litter box when the cats jump out. I have a couple of cats who act like their pee or poop will jump up and attack them so they jump out so they won't be killed. When my more tempered cats use the boxes; hardly any come out. To help with flying pellets I turned my box around, so the big opening faces the tub and left a couple of inches for them to walk on that side, if they choose to instead of climbing over the high part, but they can step in easily that way too. Turning the litter box will drastically reduce how many pellets fly out of the box. I would also recommend that you put something under the box (I use a throw rug from IKEA) and leave some room between the box and the wall/tub. I have my 2 boxes on one and that plus turning the boxes around really help with the amount of pellets that get on the floor. I do wish they would come up with a hood you could buy, THAT would make this system pretty much perfect. -Kittens just LOVE to play with the rolling pellets-especially if they get in the tub. Keep your tub's drain covered so they don't fall in. Do not encourage them to play with them, and pick them up from your tub/floor quickly. -It's a fact that at first your cats will wonder what the hell is going on with their litter, maybe they'll look at you and think, "Is this that Newspaper crap???" NOPE kitty, not even close. They like to dig, they like to cover (the nice ones do anyway) and the pellets are very different from what they are used to. They won't like it so much at first, they will act weird when stepping in them, but they are round and won't hurt their feet. Trust me, they will get used to it. My adult cats were much less excited about the new litter, but within a few days they were on board. And I'm pretty sure that they are happier with this. How could they not be? Their litter doesn't stink, they aren't standing in old pee (and not walking all over your floors, counters, beds with urine on their feet and dirty kitty paw prints will never be seen again!!!) and their poop gets picked up because it's not buried under litter... And even if the little brats don't like it, I DO. I LOVE IT! I will NEVER EVER, EVER go back to a traditional litter box...And since THEY don't work or PAY or CLEAN up after themselves, I GET THE FINAL VOTE! -Trying to purchase the pellets or pads in a store is impossible, and I have NO idea why...However, I'm sure even if stores did sell them that they would be way more expensive than purchasing on Amazon anyway! So WHO CARES about this little issue??? Buy the 6 pack of pellets, buy the 2 or 4 pack of pads here on Amazon and you're good for many months. The first time I bought more it was the 6 pack of pellets and 4 pack of pads (16 pads) and it was $65 for 3 months for 7 cats and I still have a couple of pads left. Try and beat that with all of the other positives I've listed. You just won't be able to. I'm just now purchasing my 2nd round of 6 pack pellets and this time I'm buying the 2 pack of pad (8 total pads) for $15 instead of 16 as they last a long time, but buying the 6 pack of pellets is the most economical way to go as single packs are about $10 each. Enjoy your new Breeze System...Oh, and one last and final tip...Each system comes with a $7 coupon for another system. If you're planning on getting more than one, wait for the first one and buy your additional ones with your coupon. Amazon is the best company and have gone BEYOND in many ways to make my life easier...I called Amazon to apply the credit because when ordering as there isn't a way to add this type of coupon on your own.

1 YEAR+ UPDATE This is by FAR my favorite litter box i've ever had, ever. We have two cats and have been using this box since they were pretty young kittens. They are also outdoor cats so they do go outside a lot (i think it is their preference, but they DO need to go inside sometimes) Due to the fairly infrequent uset I literally hardly ever have to do anything with it. I scoop poo every now and then, and if it starts to smell (which is rare) I'll change the pad below. It does the best job out of any product I've ever used in keeping the ammonia odor to nearly nothing. The litter lasts pretty much forever. It does stick to the poos so over time you will lose litter volume, I just add a bit more when needed. I've only used maybe 3 refill bags in a year, and replace the pads every couple months. I am pretty sensitive to the ammonia/pee odor and would be very bothered it it got stinky, but it just doesn't happen very quickly. It's really shocking to me how little maintenance is required for this box. Obviously if my cats were fully indoors they would use it more regularly and my upkeep would be a bit more, but honestly I believe it would still be superior to any other typical litter. I especially love that the litter does not track all over the place. you might get a couple nuggets immediately outside of the box but it's SO much better than regular sand-like litter that goes all over The only 1 worry I do have is that with two dogs that occasionally drag out some "kitty roca" likely ingest some pellets in the process. It's been a year now, and it does not happen frequently... but I have worried that it could potentially cause issues, though no problems as of yet. Pretty sure they are not meant to be ingested - but my dogs are stupid (also adorable) and cannot resist an occasional kitty poo snack. Original Review: I have been using this system with our two new kittens for about 2 weeks and so far it has been great. I have had many cats over the years and have tried many styles of litter boxes, this one is my favorite. I was afraid it was a bit gimmicky and that the young kittens would not take to the pellet litter. Luckily they went straight to it and have had not problems (yay) It is a bit odd to clean the poo out, scooping is just a bit different than it is with most litter, but I've had no problems. The urine smell is non-existent. I love that. even when you scoop there is no ammonia smell. To those that complain about the poo odor.. Yeah, there is a poo odor immediately after my cats drop a deuce, but I have not had a problem with the odor lingering for long. we have a second litter box in the basement that is a more traditional style, and the same issue exists there so its not like the poo doesn't smell when they use other litter. dusting a poo with sand does not encapsulate the stink. Great product. very happy with purchase. love that my floor doesn't feel gritty or dirty from the sand style litter making it's way out of the box. Some of the pellets have made it out, but not many, and they are easy enough to sweep up quickly, and don't track around.

This litter system is genuinely life changing, and that’s not even an exaggeration. It’s improved both our lives re: cleaning and Miss Kitty’s re: using it. All the essay-length, updated-multiple-times reviews on here aren’t lying. It’s been about a year since we got it and it’s been worth every penny. So here’s my essay length review. Miss Kitty likes to pee in the same corner every. single. time. Without fail. That meant that when we still used regular litter, that corner was always extra gross. Didn’t matter how well the litter was designed to clump. Also the older Miss Kitty gets, the less she cared about keeping her feet clean, so she was tracking grody footprints everywhere. She also had litter stuck in the fur between her paws which couldn’t have been comfortable. And she was kicking the litter out and then grippin’ it in her paws, so she was tracking litter everywhere, no matter what we did to clean. Since she likes to sleep on our bed all the time, we were getting desperate for a solution. So I went searching and came across this (I think from a Reddit suggestion iirc). I read a bunch of the reviews, the multiple updates, the photos, the hacks. It sounded too good to be true. Good news: it’s true. The major pros: • The lack of smell. Oh man, that right there is one of the biggest pluses. Cat ammonia permeates everything and I hate the idea that I could become nose blind to it and then have family or friends over who could smell it. Scented cat litter was never an option because then Miss Kitty would walk by all perfumed but all that did was make me think of the fact that she just got out of the litter box. Ew. And then later that turned into scented cat ammonia when cleaning it out. Ew. This system is - somehow - 98% scent free, even when it’s time to change a batch of pellets. Truly magical. • The near lack of “ew” factor when cleaning out the poop or pee pad. You know what I mean, re: regular litter. • The pellets are advertised to work for 4 weeks, but we usually get about 6 weeks out of each batch. Each batch uses 3.5lbs of pellets and that looks like it isn’t enough if you’re coming from regular litter, but since it doesn’t need to absorb liquid, it’s definitely sufficient. They also mask the poop smell impressively well. There’s a little odor while it’s fresh, but the zeolite pellets dry it out quickly. • The pee pads are magical. I’ve used “magical” a few times, but I really mean it. Absolutely ZERO cat urine smell, no matter how full or even over-full they get. I don’t know how they do it. Based on plenty of other reviews, I’m pretty sure every new Breeze system owner accidentally lets a pad go too long at least once until it’s swimming in urine (gross) and then has a mixed bag of emotions of “ew!” and “how is there no smell??” We have to change the pad on a schedule because there will be no odor to remind us. With one cat, we change it once a week (the night before trash day). • Both the pads and pellets are available locally in PetSmart and Petco. No generics though. • Clean paws! No more disgusting footprints in the hallway. Her toe beans have never looked so perfectly clean and pink. She’s 20yo, so anything to help her hygiene helps her out. • No more litter everywhere. The pellets are too big for her to grip in her paws, so she can’t track them beyond the immediate vicinity of the litter box. • It’s easier to keep an eye on her health. Looking at her poop and seeing the color of her pee are good insights into her health and if anything changes, especially as she gets older. Also it’s really easy to use a dip strip indicator by just pressing it into the pee pad right after she gets out of the box. • The cover that flips back is great, compared to having to unclip the entire top each time. Makes cleaning out the poops easy, but keeps things covered and out of sight. It’s a small detail but it’s helpful. • Since there’s no regular litter with clay to conceal, the dried poop can just be tossed down the toilet. Makes it easier to clean more often. • Since the pellets dry everything out quickly and the pee is absorbed by a pad in the lower tray, the box just needs to be washed in between each batch of pellets, so about every 6 weeks. • Even with buying brand name pads and pellets, the annual cost of litter stuff is way, way lower than having to buy litter frequently. • Miss Kitty adapted to the new system right away. Fortunately, she’s never been picky when I’ve changed litter brands. I did a couple things for the first week to encourage her transition. I mixed a little regular litter in with the pellets for the familiar smell and feel. That shuffled out to the pee pad below over the week and then she was just left with the pellets. I put a couple old poops from the used litter in the new box, again to bring a familiar scent to the new system. And I left her old box out too for a week, but I left the used litter in there to discourage use of it. She was a little unsure the first evening, but after the first use, she never went back in her old box. • For people who are disabled/limited by lifting weight, picking up a 7lbs bag of pellets is way more feasible than 20-40lbs of litter or a box of used litter. Cons: • The Tidy Cats pellets and pads are pricey. That said, they are worth it for how well and how long they work. Some reviews talk about washing the pellets to extend their lifespan. I tried it just once out of curiosity, using the pet enzyme cleaner and a thorough rinse. It’s just not worth the gross hassle so I never did it again. Tidy Cat must have a stranglehold on the pellets because I can’t find an off brand, and if I somehow do, they’re back ordered or “we don’t know if these will be available again.” I wouldn’t think zeolite (the mineral they’re made of) pellets would be hard to find a generic of, but I’ve yet to. Even the pet stores don’t have their own generic versions. I haven’t tried generic pee pads yet, but the Tidy Cat ones work so well I’m fine with paying a bit more. • The pellets can be noisy. Miss Kitty loves rustlin’ in the box and those hard pellets against hard plastic can be fairly loud. I think she paws at the litter more now because she’s trying to cover the poop but it pretty much sits on top of the pellets no matter what she does. We tried getting the equine pine pellets that are dirt cheap and supposed to break down once they’re wet. But Miss Kitty apparently loved shredding those so much she was spending extra time rustlin’. All we ended up with was a messy pile of pine powder that was too much to fit in the lower tray. We gave up after a week. So we’re back to the louder, more expensive Tidy Cat pellets, but the pros vastly outweigh the cons. We got used to the sound in about a week or two. • Stepping on a pellet with your heel can feel like stepping on a Lego. With all her rustlin’ Miss Kitty still kicks litter out of the box. We have a litter pad outside the box - the kind with sizable holes and two layers so it’s easy to clean up (got it on Amazon too) - and that really helps catch them, but there’s still usually a few in the vicinity. We just have to be on top of cleaning the loose ones up. Also pointing the box opening towards the wall instead of the walkway really helped. The tray can be flipped to open either way - same direction or opposite direction of the box opening. Never thought I’d be evangelizing cat litter, but here I am. TL;DR just get it. You won’t regret it.

This is the best litter box system I’ve ever purchased for my cats. It’s easy to clean, quite sturdy, and provides ample space for them to move around. I’ve placed it inside a cabinet for the litter boxes, and the cats love to come and go from it. It’s a mess-free system. You can turn the drawer to use it on both ends, and you can change the pad and replace it weekly. It’s incredibly easy to use. I’ll never go back to using dusty, dirty litter boxes again. Plus, since there’s no dust being kicked up, I don’t need to use an air purifier.

Interessantes Konzept, diese Cat Breeze, haben wir uns gedacht. Oben feste Pellets, Urin rinnt durch ein Gitter und wird von einer Matte aufgesaugt. Diese muss laut Hersteller nur ein Mal wöchentlich getauscht werden (pro Katze), Stuhl ist selbstverständlich trotzdem mit der Schaufel zu entfernen. Das interessante Konzept ist aber auch das einzige, was an der Toilette toll ist... Nun muss dazu gesagt werden, dass wir zwei Freigänger haben, die aber gerade im Winter gerne viel Zeit drinnen verbringen. Der Toilettengang wird überwiegend draußen erledigt (erfreulicherweise in Nachbars Garten und nicht in unserem). Unsere Kater bleiben jedoch nachts immer im Haus und nutzen die Toiletten dann, um uns großzügigerweise nicht zu wecken. Toilettengänge finden also nicht annähernd so oft statt, wie bei andere Katzen und daher müssen wir die Matten nicht so oft wechseln, wie vielleicht andere Katzenbesitzer. Länger als ein paar Tage habe ich mit dem Wechsel aber trotzdem nie gewartet, da unsere beiden Kater bereits nach einem Toilettengang keine Lust mehr auf die Toilette haben. Da gehen sie lieber aufs andere Klo (herkömmliche Bentonit-Streu), obwohl der Kollege schon ein Ei reingesetzt hat...Trotzdem entsteht viel mehr Müll als zuerst angenommen! Wir haben das Set im August 2023 gekauft, Wartezeit war länger als angegeben, da Import aus den USA. Die Streu gibt es in Europa auch nicht zu kaufen und muss jedes Mal aus den USA importiert werden. Und das ist mein Hauptgegenargument, denn nun stellen Sie sich Mal vor, Sie müssen jedes Mal, wenn Sie die Streu wechseln ein paar Wochen warten... Von den Matten gibt es günstigere Alternativen, aber für die Streu habe ich bisher keine Alternative gefunden. Ich habe es schon mit allen anderen Pellets auf dem Markt (Kanincheneinstreu, Tofu-Pellets, CatsBest etc.) probiert, aber alle verkleben das Gitter, sodass es die Reinigung noch aufwändiger werden lässt, als bei einem herkömmlichen Katzenklo (da hab ich gedacht, ich bin ein Sparfuchs und wurde eines besseren belehrt)... Nur eine Streu habe ich gefunden, die dem Original näher kommt (Zeolith), aber die kommt aus GB und seit die nicht mehr in der EU sind, sind alle Lieferungen mit Vorsicht zu genießen (eventuell Rücksendekosten etc.). Außerdem ist sie nicht wirklich günstiger (ein Paket 45€), der einzige Vorteil ist, dass sie schneller da ist, als die Pakete aus den USA. Dazu muss ich auch sagen, dass man beim Pelletskauf höllisch aufpassen muss und die Preise nur mit Mühe vergleichen kann, da manche Händler Liter angeben, manche Pfund und nur wenige Kilo. Ein weiterer Minuspunkt ist die Größe der Toilette. Unsere Kater sind alt (15+17) aber nicht groß. Sie passen gerade Mal so unter die Haube. Ja die Toilette ist kompakt, aber man muss halt auch eine kompakte Katze haben. Das einzige was ich an der Toilette gut finde ist: Sie hat ein tolles Design. Aber ich bin keine Toilettensammlerin und daher ist das auch kein Pluspunkt. Fazit: Alles in allem kann ich nur sagen, dass die Toilette der absolute Reinfall ist. Es gibt keine Vorteile. Hände weg! Machen Sie nicht den gleichen Fehler wie ich und denken, Sie sind ein schlauer Fuchs... Andere Streu funktioniert hier nämlich ganz einfach nicht. Wir kaufen jetzt eine automatische Toilette und hoffen, dass das besser klappt. PS: Wer will mir ein schickes Sammlerstück abkaufen? ;)

👍 Positive: • Litter system that does not use regular clumping cat litter • Tray for adding urine pad that can be changed weekly 👎 Negative: • Not a regularly sold item in Germany so it is expensive 👤 Good For: • Those who do not like clumping cat litter • Has a dedicated urine tray in which you can remove the sheet and get a sample to be checked by the vet easily. I have 2 Scottish Fold cat which I brought over from Japan when I started working in Germany. In Japan a very similar litter system is found but uses a different completely different type of litter, which I prefer over zeolite litter. However the system is very convenient when needing to take urine sample. It is too bad it is not sold as a regular item here in Europe as it is expensive to import from USA.

Très bien, plus d'odeur de pipi et plus de poussière.

Excelente arenero.

Here goes - this may be a long post but please persevere! This has to be the best litter system ever! I have, over the last 3/4 years spent hundreds on different litter systems for our Bengal, I even tried the automatic litter system at £130 and threw it away after only a couple of months. He refused to use anything other than a puppy training pad in a litter tray because of previous kidney-related health issues, and he was the first one to use this tray. He is now, after just a few weeks, properly litter-trained again. The system is so easy to use - I change the pads daily (I have 2 very large breed cats and 2 smaller breed cats) and the trays are washed out and litter completely changed once every 3-4 weeks. I had to clean out other trays/systems every 2/3 days previously. I will add though that I find the pads and pellets that come with the system very expensive. I use Amazon Basics pads at £9 for 40 (the refills for the system are a very costly £10 for 4) and there is very little difference in them. I also use a wood pellet (around £15 for a 30 litre bag) instead of the pellets that comes with the system (priced around £25 for a very small bag that will fill 1 litter tray once). Initially using the pads and litter provided, I found that after 3/4 days they stopped using the tray because they could smell the dirty litter. It does eventually dissolve but takes ages. The wood litter when wet turns to sawdust and falls through to the tray beneath and so every time they go to the toilet it is clean. Obviously poop is scooped when they do it, or as soon after as we can I would also say that you need an old paintbrush or similar to actually clean the seive tray as bits go tend to get stuck. It may seem an expensive system but honestly after the initial cost, and especially if you convert to the other pads and wood pellets, you will not look back.
