How a Self-Cleaning Litter Box Preemptively Rescued My Relationship

My boyfriend is the most cat-tastic cat dad I have ever met! He loves his two baby girls, Bubja and Rudy, more than anything in the entire world and would do anything for them. That being said… He is still just a dude, living with another dude roommate, and let's be honest, the cleanliness of any bachelor pad is negligible. So, his litter box cleaning edict is not as tidy as me, his girlfriend, would like.

Bubja and Rudy are both skittish little six-year- olds; Bubja is the petite, fluffy one, and Rudy the sleek, large-and-in-charge one. I can't sit down without one of them hopping on my lap, purring for pets. But, as much as I love them, the litter box is something we do not align on…

Ladies, we are women of the 21st century. We are strong, independent, and leaving behind the antiquated mentality that we have to pick up after our men. We are not their mothers, after all. So, I am constantly fighting the urge to clean that dang litter box when I come to visit my man.

He is trying, though, he really is; he's a good man, Savannah! But I am very clean and thorough, so even when he does keep up with cleaning the litter, it's truly never clean enough for me.

Until meow! Enter the Ease S1 Self-Cleaning Litter Box.

As a cat lover and member of the legendary ICanHasCheezburger family, I have seen my share of feline fiascos, especially when it comes to litter boxes, whether they’re self-cleaning or not. We just want to lift up our fellow cat people and make the cat community a better place, and apparently, so does OneIsAll. They came to my boyfriend’s rescue and, perhaps even preemptively, the rescue of our relationship, by so graciously sending us the Ease S1 Self-Cleaning Litter Box to try.

Pros? Cons? Questions?
This was the first time either of us had any experience with an automatic litter box, first-timers here! So we had a lot of questions. Like, how does it work? Is it worth it? What are the pros and cons? Is this the best route to take with a multiple-cat household? Well, we were more than enthusiCATstic about the results.

Setting up and introducing the automatic litter box:
The setup was easy peasy. Did I do it? No, but I watched my boyfriend set it up, and it was built without any problems or mumbles of frustration. That’s a win in my book!

Now, these cats get freaked out by everything at first. So, we took things slowly, and made sure to set it up next to the old one, and ease them into it. But it appeared that we didn’t even need to be so cautious, because they were more than curious about it the second the Ease S1 Self-Cleaning Litter Box was ready to go! Plus, it has a smart motion detector, so it stops itself from making any possibly-scary noises when it detects a curious cat lurking nearby, or multiple cats, in our case. Then, one day, we realized the electric litter box was being used full-time over the old stinky one.

Praise the cat gods!

The devil is in the de-tails:
Now, we not only have an automatic litter box that cleans itself more often than my boyfriend would clean it, but it is also aesthetically way more pleasing. The old classic plastic box that my boyfriend had was such an eyesore, and, honestly, gross. The sleek-looking Ease S1 Self-Cleaning Litter Box feels like it was designed to fit with any decor. In fact, I thought it would take up way more space than the old litter box, but it actually blends into the corner of the room much better, even with the addition of the extra step for senior cats/ cats with mobility issues. It’s not even noisy either! I didn’t know a quiet self-cleaning litter box was even possible, but now I sometimes forget it’s even there.

The purr-ice tag!
Basically, this auto cleaning litter box threw out whatever attachment my boyfriend and I had to the old litter box-ways like yesterday’s litter in the trash. After experiencing how awesome the Oneisall Ease S1 Self-Cleaning Litter Box is, I started to research other self-cleaning litter boxes out of curiosity. Holy cat poo, Catman! Why are they so expensive?! Those other prices put into perspective just how good of a deal the S1 Self-Cleaning Litter Box really is; the most affordable automatic litter box on the market, in my opinion.

Our final cat-clusions:
Also, with two cats and a tiny NYC apartment, I can’t believe how the odor is just nonexistent now. Plus, my boyfriend can go back to only cleaning the litter once a week, and I can enjoy a clean apartment when I visit and not struggle to keep my strong, independent, I-don’t-clean-up-after-any-man reputation. He told me that cleaning is super easy too: “You just pull the pan out from the bottom, take out the bag, throw it out, and put a new bag in.” It doesn’t really get any simpler than that.

This multiple-cat household is filled with nothing but love now, not gross kitty litter, thanks to the Ease S1 Self-Cleaning Litter Box. If you have a couple of fur friends yourself, then this ICanHasCheezburger member highly recommends it! It’s been perfect for these two scaredy cats and my sensitive nostrils. I’ve moved on from worrying about when the litter will be cleaned to worrying about which cat meme to send to my boyfriend.

10/10, the Oneisall Ease S1 Self-Cleaning Litter Box will save your relationship, but also might make your girlfriend spend more time with the cats than with you…
