HOW DO I DOWN LOAD THE MANULA FOR THE LITTER MAID SELF CLEANING LITTER BOX? I NEED A NEW SWITCH FOR IT BUT DON'T KNOW HOW TO TAKE IT OUT.

SOURCE: They have stopped making the brand of litter I have always bought for my cats litter box so I will need to find a new one. I have been told that cats do not adapt well to new litter. What can I do t

I would recommend adding a small amount of the new litter in with the older product. Slowly you can start adding more and more newer product to the litter box until your cat receives the change without any problems.

SOURCE: Where can I buy a self-cleaning litter box for my cat?

SOURCE: I would really like my cat to have a clean litter box throughout the day. Do self-cleaning litter boxes really work? If so, this could be a worthwhile investment.

I would recommend you check out the LitterMaid litter box. It has two sensors on either side of the box that detect when a cat uses it. After 10 minutes, a rake automatically comes and scoops clumps of solid and liquid waste into a disposable container at the end of the litter box. Keep in mind that this does not eliminate you cleaning the box.

SOURCE: If I buy a self-cleaning litter box does that mean that I am off the hook for cleaning?

Sorry to break the news to you but just because you bought a self-cleaning litter box does not mean that you do not need to clean it. While they keep themselves cleaner than other litter boxes, self-cleaning litter boxes still require an amount of sanitary maintenance. They necessitate regular washing and litter replacement. You should also keep an eye out for any waste that the self-cleaning system may have missed.

SOURCE: When should I refill the litter in my cat's litter box?

It is recommended to completely empty and clean the litter box once a week, and then refills it with new litter.
