Work late or go on vacation, perfect for pregnant mothers, the elderly, or people with physical handicaps. The size of this box makes it ideal for households with multiple cats or larger cats (over 15 lbs). You will no longer have to constantly follow your cat to its litterbox and scoop up waste left behind because the LitterMaid LM980 Classic Self-Cleaning Litter Box is programmed to clean up for you.How it WorksThe LitterMaid Mega Self-Cleaning Litter Box automatically cleans your pet"s litter box, scooping the waste into a sealed, disposable receptacle while a carbon filter activates to absorb and remove odors. Timed dual-motion sensors activate ten minutes after your cat finishes use to quickly and efficiently clean the cat"s waste with our new, quieter than ever functioning- or, you can choose to set the LitterMaid on manual activation for an immediate clean. This, along with its minimal setup, allows for little clean-up and virtually no effort. With the LitterMaid Mega Self-Cleaning Litter Box, you"ll spend less time worrying about cleaning more time loving your cat.Just add one cup of litter to pan every time the litter is changedSaving Litter, Saving MoneyDue to its efficient raking system, the LM980 actually helps you use less litter. For single cat households, litter will last 5-7 days before emptying receptacles, and for multi-cat households, the receptacle should be changed every 3 days. With this model and with all LitterMaid litter boxes, we recommend that you use LitterMaid LML 100 Premium Clumping Cat Litter (7lbs). This will ensure optimal functioning for your LM980 and allow a 7lb bag of litter to last up to two weeks as opposed to the typical 20lb bag. This could save you over $500 each year! Clean for Your Cat, Clean for Your HomeThe LitterMaid Mega comes with a detachable rake mechanism designed for efficient use and easy cleaning. The Mega model now has higher sidewalls, a feature that maintains and prevents litter scatter. An included Scoop and Rake Cleaner makes maintenance a breeze, letting you go days without empting receptacles and up to a month without cleaning the box. This feature will undoubtedly help you gain hours of your life back that would have been wasted on the clean-up associated with a traditional litter box. The LitterMaid also comes with a dual-power option- either plug into your standard wall outlet or utilize a battery option for anywhere functionality. Odor-FreeBecause the LitterMaid Mega Self-Cleaning Litter Box keeps your cat"s litter clean all day, every day, you"ll never have to worry about odor again. The Mega Litter Box automatically empties the waste into a sealed, disposable receptacle ensuring that the odor is contained. Box mounted carbon air freshener filters attack and destroy any escaping odors that may remain in the air. This feature helps promote a clean, comfortable environment that both you and your cat will love.No Assembly RequiredSafety and ComfortNot only is this product convenient for you, but it is safe for your cat.
