CatGenie Self-Washing Cat Box WTF?!
I have cats, and of course one of the pain in the arse things about them is cleaning the litter box and I’ve seen some interesting products to alleviate the chore of cleaning the litter box but this thing is about the oddest one yet…
It requires electricity, running water and a drain to use it… I think it’s much easier the old way eh?
On the website you can even find videos and such showing it in use, it’s interesting, it washes and dries the cat litter after your cat does its thing in the CatGenie… it seems like a lot of work and extra expense because you have to buy special ‘washable’ cat litter and these filter cartridges as well to be used with it, yeah I think I’ll stick to buying a $5 25lb bag of cat litter every month…
Here’s some info from the site:
Cat Genie
Self-Flushing, Self-Washing Cat Box
The only automatic cat box that flushes away waste
and, like a cat, washes itself clean.
-CatGenie uses permanent Washable Granules that never need changing
-For your cats, it’s like using a clean box of cat-comfy, normal-size cat box filler
-For you, CatGenie works like a modern washing-drying, cat toilet appliance
-After a one-time, simple DIY hook up to water, you’re set
-Push a button or preset CatGenie Cat Box to start automatically
-Used and recommended by veterinarians, nationwide

Somehow I don’t think the setup is ’simple’ as they say, anytime you’re mixing water and electricity it isn’t a ’simple’ setup….

Looks pretty cool. I dont think its much of a hazard unless your cat tears into things. If it works like they say & show it in the movies, thats awesome.

Save $30 on Cat Genie. (The promo code can even be used with their free shipping offer). Just enter F14227 in the PROMO box during checkout. The code is case sensitive so use a capital F (not f).

We have the cat genie with 3 cats. One has somewhat rejected it but we’re going back to trying to acclimate her. We love love love it! Would recommend to anyone! Here’s another $30 coupon code F15004. It’s easy to use and to set up. No problems with 3 cats either.

None of the discount codes work. Both are expired. Was going to get one today but want some kind of discount. Help.

I have 2 cat genies and 6 cats. Love it! Works great! None of my animals have chewed through the cords. Customer service is great! They have walked me through a few issues which they helped me solve quickly - even the cat genie which wasn’t purchased through their website.
Does anyone know of any promo codes for the sani solution cartridges?

Try 4CF8, it saves you 17% off of your purchase. I think it has to be over $50. I just saved $73 because I got the genie and some accessories. Good luck!

TYVM, for promo code! I basically got free shipping on my supplies (saved $10.20). I’m a paramedic and work weird shifts…gone for days at a time…last thing I wanna do when I get home is clean a litter box for 3 cats. I have had the cat genie for 15months, no problems…just be sure to take it apart and clean it as recommended.

Saved $62.73!! Promo code (4CF8) still worked today. Thanks very much!

Here’s my code: F14952. It’s one of the personal promotional codes they give buyers to encourage them to spread the word, so it shouldn’t expire. When someone buys a package using my code, it adds up to discounts on supplies for me later. It should give you $30 off the “Tabby” package. I’ve had my CatGenie for almost a year, and I love it. It wasn’t hard to set up - I use my laundry room. The actual operation cost (supplies) works out to just over $10 a month for my two cats when I order the 3 cleaner cartridge/1 granule box set. I recommend adding the side rails (raises the sides a few inches), but not the dome - it’s very small. Aside from giving it one good cleaning (at the recommended six months), I haven’t actually scooped a cat box in almost a year! BTW - if you’re only looking for supply discounts, I just used the 4CF8 code today and got the 17% discount = free shipping. Enjoy!

Miki,
I was going to order the dome because it will be in my laundry room and I don’t want anything being tossed into it by accident. Is it really that small?
15. Elvis replies at 13th September 2008, 7:55 pm :
Saved $50.49 off tabby package with above code (4CF8). Thanks!!
16. Leslie replies at 28th September 2008, 3:01 pm :
I used promo code 4CF8 today and saved $50.49 off the Tabby Package, which is regularly $297. You’ll pay only $246.51 with this code. Thanks!!
