YOUR CAT AND YOUR CATGENIE
Every cat is different. From our experience with over 15,000 cats, most, once
shown the Bowl and Granules, know it's where to go and use it immediately.
If CatGenie is in the same place as the litter box, adjustment is usually easier.
A percentage of cats need time to adjust to something new. During this time,
1)
If your cats do
NOT use CatGenie
immediately, put their
old litter box nearby.
DO NOT clean out
old box. The dirtier it
gets, the more cats
prefer CatGenie.
Once your cats use
CatGenie, remove
the old box and litter.
2)
When running CatGenie
in the first week, shut the door
or make sure your cats are not
nearby. The new sound of the
cleaning process might startle
them. Over time your cats will
associate the sound with their
new, always clean cat box.
NOTE:
Unless you know

Bathroom / Toilet Setup
BEFORE SETTING UP YOUR CATGENIE, TAKE CARE OF YOUR CATS!
If the CatGenie goes in a location different than
the old litter box, DO NOT set up CatGenie yet.
First move the old litter box to the new area.
CAUTION:
If the litter box or boxes need to
be moved a great distance, our cat behaviorists
recommend moving the old box or boxes little by
little, slowly over time to the new location so that
your cats can adjust to the change. When cats
are comfortable, proceed with CatGenie set up.
