ANSWERS

LITTER-LIKE WASHABLE GRANULES
Can I use cat litter in the CatGenie?
NEVER use cat litter in the CatGenie. We supply the litter-like Washable Granules that provide cats the material they need to dig and cover. The Washable Granules are made especially for the CatGenie.
Warning: Only use Washable Granules. Anything else will damage the unit, clog your pipes, and void your Warranty.

How much of the Washable Granules will I need?
Frequency of replenishment depends on the number of cats in your home. On average, a box of Washable Granules will last up to 6 months.

How often do the Washable Granules need changing or replacement?
Actually, the Washable Granules never need changing or replacement as they are washed, scrubbed, and sanitized at least once a day. However, you will need to add Granules because some will be lost as they may stick to solids or get kicked out of the Basin. Just keep the Basin filled to the safe-level line for optimum performance and for your cat’s comfort.

Will the Granules clog my pipes or damage my septic system?
No. The Washable Granules are safe for your pipes and will biodegrade in the septic or sewer system in 9 months or less (2 years or less in a landfill). Only the few Granules that stick to solids will end up down the drain or in the septic system.

"I was so scared that I almost
didn't buy the CatGenie.

It was fear of plumbing.
It took less than 10 minutes to
turn an 'I' into a 'T'. Easier
than setting up my computer."
