We are #LitterGeniuses! The Kitties- and us- are Lovin' our Litter Genie!

I was REALLY lucky to be selected to try out the new Litter Genie cat litter disposal system, and I have to say that it's so good that we are buying a second one so the cats don't fight over it! The great thing about Litter Genie, to put it simply, is that it STOPS THE SMELL. The only things I really don't like about having house cats is the smell of cat poo from the litter boxes, and constantly having to deal with and dump cat poo! With the Litter Genie, you just scoop the poo up with the Litter Genie straining spoon, lift the lid and dump the poo in the Litter Genie, pull out the trap door so the poo goes down into the plastic bag, and then snap the trap door shut. END OF SMELL! Emptying it is easy: you lift up the top half, cut the full bag with the attached cutter, and then pull down the refill and tie it off to start a new bag. The refill canister fits snugly in the top, and it's easy to load, and the unit is nice looking, with a tray to hold the scoop on the side. The scoop actually works well, and strains poo from litter, which saves on litter and makes the system easy to use. Litter Genie can hold up to two weeks worth of poo per cat, so you don't have to be running to empty it all the time, which is REALLY great, especially if you have a pet-sitter and you don't want them to have to deal with that nasty chore! I found Litter Genie really easy to set up, and each refill lasts for about two months per cat, making it economical, too. It honestly is a really great product, and, as I said, we're buying a second one, because we have litter boxes in two places to keep Caramel and Butterscotch (aka Li'l Psychopath) from fighting!
