Tidy Cats Breeze Hooded Cat Litter Box System

First of all, I think this product needs to be wider and taller. If you have a fairly large cat this is not going to work for you. I mainly bought this to keep my dog out. She doesn't like to stick her head in little openings! So this has been working for us. There is no more mess all over the house from the dog digging in the litter box. We are already Breeze box users! So there was no transition. Even so, my cat has never been picky about boxes. However, if your cat is a picky cat you're going to have a really hard time in my experience with my grandmother's cat. We tried to transition him over to the breeze box, and he is just really picky and just started peeing and pooping on the floor First of all, I think this product needs to be wider and taller.

We tried to transition him over to the breeze box, and he is just really picky and just started peeing and pooping on the floor. Eventually, she gave up and went back to her original litter. I think this is just a product of trial and error. Sometimes you get lucky and the cat likes it and sometimes they don't. But, that is not a reflection on the product. I have no issues with smell. However I do clean my litter box once a day. I change the pads twice a week. Because I prefer that! It doesn't necessarily have to be done. Also, as a sidenote. Someone that is in a wheelchair permanently... that is very limited in their mobility may enjoy this more, because it's easy to clean and there's no excess litter to sweep up. This has saved my back and my time when it comes to cleaning up. … more

I was excited about this product but I am really not impressed...I'll most likely be eating the cost and purchasing a regular litter box. The hooded system is way too small for my cat. I have to leave the hood part up so my 10 lb cat can fit in it. And even then, he looks so awkward trying to do his business in it! The box itself looks and feels cheaply made. It took me almost 5 minutes to get the hood clicked into place because it wasn't fitting easily. Lastly, my cat has only used this twice so far and the pad is already saturated because he tends to go in the same spot. It's been just about 24 hours and the pad is supposed to last 2 weeks? No way.

Needless to say I am super disappointed with this product. It's a great concept, but the design needs to be improved. I also don't see these pellets being that cost effective. One 3 lb bag costs 8 bucks and I needed about 1.5 bags to fill the box sufficiently. … more

So we have 3 cats, two are over weight. But i leave the top up and they do just fine. I have 2 units for the cats and clean it daily or every other day. The pellets do really well in dehydrating the poop and the urine falls on this pad underneath. I can say that the box wasn't cleaned when we went on "vacation" for 6 days (house/pet sitter didn't clean it) and it didnt smell like urine when i walked in the house. The pads were super full, but the smell was contained. I am genuinely impressed. The container...some parts look cheaply made, but i haven't had it break yet, and I've had it for months. If you have a busy life, like we do.... Id highly recommend this litter box, especially if your So we have 3 cats, two are over weight. But i leave the top up and they do just fine.

I only have 1 cat. She is my first cat I have ever had, and she can definitely be messy. I always used regular kitty litter and she ALWAYS made a mess. I tried a hooded lid, I tried anti clumping litter and she still somehow tracked litter through the house. So I bought this thinking it may help. It is amazing!! There is never any liter in my house. There is no odor. It is great! I love it. I only need to change the pads every week or so, and I haven't needed to change the pellets yet. (I have had it about 3 weeks now) I would definitely recommend if you are someone who hates stepping in litter every-time you walk through your house. It has made a HUGE difference.

I have always had a cat and the one thing I hated was the sand on the wood floor. Even the rubber pads didn’t help. Then I saw the Breeze system on tv and just knew this was the solution. We both love it. I’m not walking on sand any more and she is not getting it stuck in her paws. Everyone I know that has a cat now knows about this system. I even told my vet about. What I do understand, why doesn’t the manufacturer advertise it more. I have only seen it that one time on tv. Don’t think about, just get it.

I have 4 cats that were mostly outdoors and never had a litter box. Well all of a sudden they became more indoor cats and decided to use my floor and corners as a litter box. It might be because of their age as they are all now 7-10 years old. I skeptically purchased 3 of these systems and am overjoyed. They got the hang of it within days, and it is so easy to keep them clean and there is no smell. Maybe will not work for everyone but I am thrilled.

I used pellets for 18 years with Heartley with no tidy cat breeze system. If it is to small for your cat you can still stay with the litter pellets. Use your bigger box. Scoop out the hard matter daily and a quick rinse and change every three days and it’s fine. Still saves a ton of money using bedding pellets or clean pressed stove pellets. I dumped the pellets, added a bit of bleach in the box added water dumped in the potty, dried it refill with 2 to 3 inches of pellets and done. It takes 5 min. The money and health of your pet is really worth it.

I have two cats and two litter boxes. I wanted to try this because I am tired of lugging 40 lbs of litter and litter all over the house. They would not use it at first. I let their other litter box get really dirty but they just flung the poop out of the box and would not go near it. Then after a week they finally started using it. Believe them when they say you have to let the traditional litter box get gross. But I love the system now that the cats are using it. Easy to keep clean and there is no litter on my bed!!

This is so low maintenance, easy to put together and take apart for cleaning. I love the pellets, the drainage grate and the pee pads breeze scented. I'm saving a ton of money because of this litter box system. Pellets last long and the pads I change once or twice a week. I don't have to muck it anymore with conventional litter. Plus the pellets don't track all over the place like conventional litter. If they do you can reuse them, not like conventional litter. I have paired with a big huge mate that traps everything but some to manage to escape. I won't ever go back to the old format of litter systems.

I have two large cats. a Ragdoll and a Ragamuffin. Neither will go in the box because their back end (or front) sticks out a good three inches. I am so disappointed. If they made this in a jumbo size for cats 6-8 pounds it would be great. What a great concept but in reality, the inside is far smaller that the outer covering. Quite expensive for a product that does not fit a large adult cat, let alone two. If would be great for kittens or small cats however. Just doesn't work for me or likely anyone with a larger breed of cat.
