Does anyone have one of these? We have two cats. My wife is all over me to get one of these. They range in price from $300 to $700. The price isn't so important as do they work and I would think the automatic activation would scare the cats and they would be hesitant to use it. I laughed when I heard this was a real thing. Given all the hell I'm catching I'm not laughing anymore.
 
I have three cats. Most of the ones we have looked at are rated for one cat, so we have not yet purchased one.

I have a friend who has one and she doesn't recommend it.

If you get one, let us know how it works. I would actually love to have one.

We do have automatic feeders and waterers. They are great. The feeders have camera's and wifi connections, so we can call the cats and feed them from wherever. But the feeder is for dry food. I wish there were an option for wet food.

Oh I don't think there is any doubt I'm getting one. I will let you know the results. How is the pizza oven working?
 
We have this one. My wife bought it or I would have probably tried to go cheap. Does a good job making cleanup much easier and you can preload litter. The cats don't have any problem using it. We have three cats.

I've seen some that actually hook up to your plumbing and wash the litter after every time and this is not it. You still need to empty the litter every few days. This has an app through your phone. I don't know if adding that feature adds any cost but the app doesn't really do anything.

I would recommend, especially if you can get something similar for $200 or $300 with good reviews on Amazon. But if you don't really care about the price, this one will do a pretty good job for you.

Great. We use it at least once a week. It's actually fun, beyond pizza being good to eat.

Hope you are figuring yours out and making good food.
 
My sister bought a $700 one for her cats and liked it so much she bought another one (they have a pretty large house).

Would not be in my budget, but she endorses it.

I had one quite some time ago (like 18 or 19 years) and it did not work well at all. I would hope the technology has improved, but I have kids now so I don't really need one. :)

We have a litter robot as well, I’d recommend it. We have two cats. The robot is in the basement and gets the most use, but we still have a conventional litter box on the upper floor since one of ours is getting older and she likes to spend time up there too.

Edit to add that litter robot has pretty good sales a few times a year. I think we bought ours on Black Friday a few years ago for like 30% off.
