We are looking for something clear to put on the wall behind our kitty literbox in the bathroom. We have an older cat who misses. Would this work?

I think it would work, but, Im not positive about that. For me, it would depend on what is covering the wall..paint or wallpaper.

It would be better to use a waterproof wallpaper, or even tile the wall, or the part behind the litterbox - Contact will not hold well. Hope this helps.

I wouldn't put it on drywall. It will definitely pull the paper off the wallboard if you ever try to remove it.

The urine definitely will stay in the box my only concern with an old cat would be the cat's ability (and comfort level) with stepping in and out of the box. If the entry point is a little too high for kitty maybe you could create a makeshift step into the box. Also make sure to fill the box with plenty of litter so the kitty does have a big jump to exit the box. If anything is too hard for an older cat they make go outside the box.

We have 3 cats with *very* different personalities, and they all switched quite easily. One good way to facilitate the process is to put the old litter box right next to the Genie, and stop cleaning the old litter box. Cats are so opposed to a dirty box they'll be motivated to try the Genie. I also *highly* recommend using the sidewalls - we have 1 "scatterer" and are saving a lot more granules now.

If your 2 cats already use one box there shouldn't be any problems. Joy McCoy makes a valid point about sealing the bottom and sides of this box. It's a great idea as once the box has been soiled with urine its all over. My box lid did stay open while cleaning and any cat closed cat box is dark but for some reason, I don't think my cat cared much about that. As far as getting a deep litter box, happy hunting. I'm sure there's something out there. I found one but there isn't a name on it. Only one will fit inside.

I'm told this litter works with covered or uncovered box. So would definitely try it! My 12 year old cat who has never used a litter box actually uses the box for his feces now! I'm still training him not to use my bathroom rugs for urinination! I would try this litter for your cat. Expensive but worth every penny. Cats are creatures of habit so keep this in mind. Try to catch him using the floor and just gently put him or her over into the litter box. My cat would not use any other litter for years!!!

That's why I bought it (several of mine miss). So far, seems to be working. Granted, it depends on how far away from the litter box your cat goes. But there's a shallow dip a few inches from the edge that may catch a little bit of liquid. Large volumes may be more problematic (it doesn't absorb anything as it's plastic).

I think it would still work. Perhaps you could cut the hole higher so that he would have extra space. Cats are quite flexible!! This has worked great for us! The dogs are sad they don't get cat food anymore!!

I liked it because it fit the corner but the cat didn't and won't use it. She's a long lady and didn't seem to have the room she needs/wants so I'm now using a storage, under the bed box, for her. It's working fine.

When we have had our cat boarded, he is very angry on return and makes messes everywhere. The Feliway plug in now prevents this. He stays calm and behaves well. It seems to subdue him. So I think it would work for spraying too.

Clean the window make sure everything is dry and just follow directions in the box.. Sometimes I have issues with suction cups too, not sure why.. Once you get it to stick don't take it off. And, it might not work as well for heavier cats, our cat is very light.

I believe it will work. Our cats, 10# and 11# both fell in and it went off. Also, my husband forgot it was in and just dangled his feet and it went off. We have been really pleased with it.

I think the design would work but I do not know how it may hold up to the humidity that could build up in a bathroom. I think it would depend on the size of the room and how much moisture/humidity you get in the room after use. My concern would be for the back panel.

we had one cat that refused to use it at first. we set up our genie in the upstairs bathroom where the original litterbox was and put the original in a different location all together. he still used that for a couple weeks eventually we had to take his option away to make him use his new litterbox. he finally got used to it. we love it. he prefers it without the hood though we found.

I attached mine to the wall using the keyhole screw slot at the top and used a marble-sized glob of earthquake putty to keep the bottom stationary. Worked like a charm! I have two others that are just laying on the floor and my cats actually prefer to stand on it and scratch it so try it that way first and you may save yourself the trouble of mounting it.

In our application the mirror is flush with the wall. The mirror box was totally inside the wall. I don't know if this hwlps bot I hope so. We are v ery satisfied with ours.

My cat easily went back to using his litter box. He preferred it. I never successfully trained him to use the toilet. We made it to green and he was to large to sit on the edge of the toilet at that stage. If you have a small, thin cat, it might all work. My cat was more than willing, but the setup didn't work for him. So we are back to litter.

I use Aquarium rocks in a two tier litter box. The top tier I drilled over 100 holes (1/2 in apart ). My cat initially wanted to use the old litter box but now he is using it. And I put Orange Dishwashing Liquid in the bottom to mask any urine odor. It does work.
