Page 8: Setting Up Your Litter-Robot
Get started by following the steps below. Placement If possible, place the Litter-Robot in the same location as the old litter box (at least during transition). Make sure the unit is on a firm, level surface. Avoid soft, uneven, or unstable flooring. - Page 9 When filling the Litter-Robot for the first time, it is best to continue using the brand of litter you were using previously—as long as it is a clumping type of litter. Your cat will need to adjust to the new litter box, and introducing a new litter at the same time may increase its anxiety.
