Tidy Cats Breeze Hooded Cat Litter Box System

I bought this for the pine pellets. I do not use the Tidy stuff, although the liners for the pull-out pan are helpful. The pine pellets turn to sawdust and fall through the slits in the bottom of the pan, onto the liner below. The only caveat is I am still figuring out how often to clear the pan before it overflows, meaning when I slide the pan out, the overflow falls onto the ground under the litterbox. It vacuums up fine, but better to empty it before it overflows. Otherwise, works great for pine pellets.

I really wanted to like this litter box but ugh ! My cat and dog both took interest in the pellets and started to try to snack on them. But once they stopped that, we had to deal with the stink on my cats poop. He didn’t cover it up very much if at all and if it’s watery then it sticks to the pellets and the plastic bin. On the other hand it is nice not to scoop pee and there is zero tracking. But I was just surprised that I didn’t see any other reviews about the problems I had. In a one bedroom apartment, if you don’t scoop the poop IMMEDIATELY the whole place will stink. Too bad but thank god for chewys customer service and return policy !

The new system's lid/side wall does not click in place correctly. After having 2 systems delivered and assembled, it still doesn't work. I notified Chewy to contact the manufacturer for this defect. I like the product for my 2 cats. It eliminates all of the dust and tracking of regular clumping litter. I have used this system for years. I am disappointed that the recent quality and lighter weight of the system is not a good replacement. I will be keeping my old litter boxes as long as possible. I was just hoping to have new to use this year.

Ok so here’s the thing, not dealing with ripe cemented urine, is not missed at all. So being able to slide out a tray and discard it in one fail swoop. Priceless. However, the clay pellets are a fail of epic proportion. I had been using skoon, which is far better in the poop dehydration business, but a small fortune. This stuff doesn’t come even close to drying anything out. My cat lets loose twice a day. The pellets claim to last a MONTH. I’m sorry, no. Not even close, not even a week. I set up the box on a sat, and by tues, a quarter of them had gone into the trash, with the poop they were all glued to.

The scooper looked like a blown up diaper by the end of it. Not to mention the handful of clay pellets that now had smeared poop all over them. The system as intended, is a complete mess. However, after spending nearly $50 on a box, I was determined to make this work. Thanks to many others who felt the same, I’ve discovered that feline pine is literally pennies in comparison, and large enough to not fall through the holes. I actually enjoy the smell (fresh out the bag of course) and at a fraction of the cost, I’m not cringing at all the pellets I’m losing. A 40lb bag at $16! The pine turns to dust in the pad, although most of the urine actually made its way passed the pellets and through the grated tray as intended. Another hack is that if you’re dealing with a less firm poop, I find that using dog poop bags is a much easier solution. Bag over hand, one quick motion. Done. If you insist on not using pine litter, I in no way recommended this. If you’re willing to bend the rules, it’s pretty amazing. Note* please don’t use pine pellets that isn’t safe for cats, it is toxic. … more

First off, I must say to all of the negative reviews about the poop completely clumping up/sticking to the pellets... IT'S BECAUSE YOUR CAT HAS RUNNY POOP/DIARRHEA. If you feed your cat healthy food, and they're getting the nutrients needed, their poop should be regular and the pellets won't stick to their poop. (That statement is not meant for people whose cats actually have serious digestive issues, if that's the case, then this litter box isn't for you). I currently have two cats, so I have two Breeze Litter Boxes. The boxes are super easy to clean, I wipe it down every time I change the pee pad and scoop the poop, and monthly when I change the pellets, I take the box into the tub and wash First off, I must say to all of the negative reviews about the poop completely clumping up/sticking to the pellets...

I currently have two cats, so I have two Breeze Litter Boxes. The boxes are super easy to clean, I wipe it down every time I change the pee pad and scoop the poop, and monthly when I change the pellets, I take the box into the tub and wash it properly. When it comes to the poop/pee smell, I was annoyed with that when I first got these boxes a few years ago. But, then the brand came out with the "fresh" scent pellets and pads. Total game changer. Hardly any smell unless it's inevitably just time to change them out. Really my only negative complaint is that there is some tracking with the pellets outside the litter box. The pellets are the perfect size to get stuck in my cats' paws, and sometimes when they are getting out of the box, they'll wiggle their feet and some pellets will fly out of the box instead of landing back into the box. However, this really is only an issue with my 17 year old, and that's just her getting older and a bit lazier/messier. I just sweep them up and toss them back into the box, simple step and not something that is a dealbreaker for me when it comes to the Breeze Box system. I'd much rather sweep up a few pellets sometimes then deal with dusty clay litter that will get everywhere and ultimately end up in my bed. Gross. Also, one last note for those switching from regular clay litter- Follow the instructions closely on how to transition the cats and it'll be really easy. At the time I purchased my first Breeze system, I had three cats and none of them had any issues, or refused to use the new box. … more

I love this litter box due to the fact that there is no dust and no mess. My cat however is not crazy about the system. Per the instructions, I placed the new kitty litter box next to his old so he is weaned off the old. At first, he used the system, but lately he has been using my house plants to do his business. I added more pellets thinking this would solve the problem but it didn’t matter. I may need to remove my house plants. Wonder if anyone else has this problem?

I hated the clumping litter. It was always making a mess and it wasn't controlling the smell with only one cat. We thought we would give this a try and see what happened. My husband asked why we didn't do this months ago! So easy to change the pad in the bottom. NO SMELL! You don't even know there is a litter box in the house. If the cat knocks the pellets out, it is not like traditional litter all over my bathroom.

I had traditional litter boxes for years. I was cat sitting for a friend and they brought this system over for their cat who had to stay in my bedroom at the time. I immediately ordered one for my own cat because the pellets for this make the scent of urine disappear! I have one cat and she had no problem transitioning from a litter box to this. There is virtually no smell and is so much more sanitary than a traditional litter box with litter. I cannot recommend this product enough!

Its cheaper, cleaner, prettier, easier, more pleasant, and doesn't track all over your house!!! No clumping!!! No STINK!!! You don't have to break your back at the grocery store buying 50 lbs of clay every month! The litter is also better than other non-clay varieties I’ve tried from the store and litter subscriptions. It doesn't mash into dust if you step on it and pee doesn't dissolve it, but the cat is still satisfied. All you have to do is scoop when they poop and change the pee pads. I love it so much. Pee clumps are the worst ever ever ever.

Read a TON of reviews & researched for days. Bought this and was so excited but it is so messy!! Poop gets all over the green tray where there aren't pellets. In addition, the pellets stick to the poop like crazy so every time we clean the litter, we are throwing away a ton of pellets. It's been 2 weeks and all of the "month supply" is gone. Also - don't even get me started on the remaining pellets...poo covered and disgusting. Our kitties are little and if they have any diarrhea it leaks down to the pee pads which can't be cleaned, only replaced. Completely disappointed and wish I could return!
