Welcome back to Gadget Week where all week long we are taking a look at some the coolest and most outrageous products that are making their way to pet shelves near you. So far this week we have covered the CatCam (a miniature camera that fits around your cat’s collar) and the iSeePet360 (a remote water/food dish that includes a webcam), today though we have something that just may be more for us pet owners than the pets themselves.

Nobody likes cleaning the litter box. Whether you scoop or just toss the whole thing out once a week, in terms of chores this is one that is at the bottom of everyone’s favorites list.  Well on it’s way to a home near you comes the Litter-Robot and I’m sure if you asked anyone with one or more cats it can’t get here soon enough. Now although there are other self cleaning litter boxes on the market, the Litter-Robot is the first of it’s kind that uses something similar to a cement mixer to get the job done.  The way it works is there’s a round drum with an entrance for the cat, the cat enters in, takes care of business, then once the cat steps out, the drum begins to spin around thus sifting all the waste into a sealed container where it can be emptied once a week.

This life changing device comes with a price tag of $329, but just may be worth every penny. Recommended for cats weighing anywhere from 5 to 15 pounds, a life of litter box ease can be yours all with just a few clicks and credit card at Litter-Robot.com.
