At first, we recommend placing your Litter-Robot near your cat’s old litter box. As soon as your cat starts using the Litter-Robot regularly, remove the old litter box. At this point, the placement is up to you. Because the Litter-Robot reduces almost all odor, prevents litter tracking, and has an 8-hour sleep setting (when it will not cycle), you can place it in virtually any room in the house without disturbance. If you decide to place it out of sight, set a reminder, so it’s not out of mind! You’ll need to change the waste drawer liner about once every 7-10 days (with one cat) and add litter as needed.
