for one cat-how bad does the bag smell if you use it to clean its litter a couple days at a time before throwing it out? (seperate from kitch trash)

I think it might last 1 day, maybe 2 ( less poop for 1 cat vs 4 dogs) with multiple dogs using 1 bag I find the lavender doesn't last that long, plus I store the partially filled bags outside while waiting to add more to it. Even with this I still find them as good or better than the big box store's bags. Hope this helps with you question

Oh I wouldn't know! We have 2 cats and throw away the litter every day at the apartment's big dumpster. But, we have a kitty litter trash can by the door and sometimes leave it there all day cause we're too lazy to go to the dumpster, and it does not smell unpleasant while it's sitting there. The bags do have fragrance to help hide any smells.

I use it also for diaper as well as garbage. When I remove bag the garbage can smell I have to spray it a few time to remove the smell.

Actually other than cleaning out the box daily I haven't dumped the litter but once in a year. There has been no odor problems if you have good litter and my cat has no problem with it so I haven't used any bags.

I stopped using the scoop and started using dog poop bags (BioBags) - this way I can pull out the poo with a large handful of the litter if necessary. The litter stays MUCH cleaner that way. I do feel a prey model diet so my cat poops at most 1x every other day and for the most part they are well formed so that makes it much easier too.

I've never used the litter genie,only because I came across this one first. I can say I am very satisfied with this one. I have 4 cats and a filler bag lasts me about 6weeks. I empty the bag/tie it off and remove litter once a week and I have never had any odor issues. Hope this helps.

I have one kitty, too, and even though I could probably go an entire 7 days without worrying about the litter box, my kitty is very people friendly so I have someone come in every day. However, for litter box purposes, I would have someone check the box every 2-3 days just in case the cleaning rake gets stuck or there is some other temporary malfunction which CAN happen. Hope this answers your question.

We have 3 cats, and it's enough, but we must empty the dirty litter 2 or 3 times a week. One Litter Robot might be enough for you, but be prepared to empty it every day, which simply involves opening the drawer, taking out the bag with the used litter, replacing a fresh bag, and adding some clean litter to the LR. Still, you'll enjoy the advantage of not smelling the litter box, and not scooping. Also, you don't need to use their bags - shop around.

Is the smell from the pad or the pellets? I don't notice anything...but only 1 cat, change the pad 1x a week, and change the pellets 1x month. With more cats, need to change everything more often, or have more than one box (w/ 2 cats, I had two boxes, but maintained the 1x week/1x month schedule).

I don't like looking for the cat bombs, so I use a system a friend showed me of going to local $ store and buying a bunch of aluminum roasting pans that fit the litter boxes, putting litter in the disposable pans, and placing that in the litter tray. About once a week or thereabouts I just place the whole disposable pan in a trash bag, rinse and repeat. Very fast and easy with no odor problem.

Yes!!!!Just be diligent about scooping but I work from home and have two litter boxes in my office. Before, I would be overwhelmed and have to scoop 2-3 times a day to handle the odor. Now, if I forget a day or two, its not the end of the world. And one of the cats has really smelly stuff.

i clean it out once a day but i have 2 cats, so you could have it cleaned every other day. hope this helps you.

I usually use a trash bag...just put the round litter pan inside the trash bag and then to change it pull the bag of inside out...no mess, no fuss.

We usually try to clean it every three months. If you use a premium clumping litter, it should work well. We only use for one cat in our household. No, the cover doesn't interfere with the waste collection. Our only issue was the turn table motor on the first unit died after a year and a half and we replaced the entire unit. This really has reduced the box odor. We dump the collection bag every three/four days.

Use one bag per litter box and change it once a month. We thought it would not be enough, but it is fine. We have two breeze litter boxes, one per cat, and have not had any issues with the recommended amount. We do recommend scooping every day, and it is not as difficult as it sounds. Hope this helps.

Throw it away in the trash. I know your next question, "isn't that as bad as using disposable diapers?" to which I'd answer, "yes." However, the amount of urine that each pad soaks up is quite impressive, and even with two cats I throw out the used pad maybe every three days, so that's not too bad. When I scoop the poops daily, I turn the pad tray from front to back and only throw it out when it's really ready. There's no odor. Hope this helps!

I've tried only the red package. We have five cats and, every time someone comes over, I ask if they can smell cats. The answer is always "no."I sift out four litter boxes twice a day, getting about two and a half pounds of poop/pee every 24 hours.
