Litter box cleaning is a nasty, but necessary chore if you have a feline at home. For lazy people like me, it is one of the most annoying things to do. I know that it only takes about 3 minutes out of the day, but it is something most cat owners would rather not do.

If you think about it, cleaning the litter box is one chore that just has to be done if you want to keep your house clean and smelling nice. The pots and pans can accumulate in the sink until they reach the ceiling, but if the waste in the cat's box is allowed to pile up, the cat will take its business elsewhere. Elsewhere, being your soft bath mat or your shoes.

So, what's a lazy cat owner to do? Well, one day I came across a product that is a heavenly gift for every cat owner the world over. This product is named the Litter Robot. It looks like a little rocket ship and it is practically hands-off cat litter cleaning. With this product, you could actually throw your litter scoop away. Your cat goes inside and uses the litter as it normally would. When the cat finishes and leaves, the machine starts a cycle which sifts the litter and drops the clumps below into a waste compartment. The Litter Robot does not even use those rakes that other automatic boxes use.

One bit of good news is that this waste drawer only has to be emptied about twice a week!
