Introducing Your Cat to the Litter Box
Most cats easily adapt to the ScoopFree® Self-Cleaning Litter Box. Some cats may need an adjustment period to help
acclimate to their new litter box. Here are a few tips to help with the transition:
1. Place the new ScoopFree Self-Cleaning Litter Box next to your cat’s current litter box. Allow your cat to have access
to the old and new litter boxes for at least a week. This time may vary depending on the temperament of your cat.
2. Add a few handfuls of your cat’s old litter to the crystal litter tray. You can also add a few handfuls of the crystal
litter to your cat’s old litter box.
3. Stop cleaning your cat’s old litter box, allowing it to remain dirty. Cats prefer a clean litter box so as the litter in
the old litter box gets shallow and its odor increases, this should make the ScoopFree Self-Cleaning Litter Box
more appealing.
4. Once your cat has transitioned to the ScoopFree Self-Cleaning Litter Box, remove the old litter box from the area.
For Kittens Under 6 Months Old:
If your kitten is under 6 months of age, leave the unit UNPLUGGED and scoop waste until kitten is 6
months old.
Place the tray with the crystal litter under the litter box frame and remove the waste trap cover on the front of the
litter box to make it easier for the kitten to enter and exit. Once your kitten is 6 months old, plug in the ScoopFree
Self-Cleaning Litter Box and replace the waste trap cover for a box that is hassle-free and consistently clean.
Litter Box Tips for Kittens:
• Kittens have a natural reflex to use the bathroom after eating, playing, or napping. It is a good idea to place your
kitten in the litter box after these activities to help them associate the litter tray with the reflex.
• Place the litter box away from kitten’s food and water bowl. In the wild, cats use the bathroom away from where
they eat and drink as a defense from predators. Placing the litter box near kitten’s food or water could lead to “going
outside the litter box” issues.
• For a kitten, the litter box needs to be in a location that is really easy to find since they do not have great bladder
control. Getting all the way across the house or down a flight of stairs to find the litter box could result in accidents.
• The litter box should be placed in an open area where your kitten can easily see it. The location should also be safe
and quiet so your kitten is not distracted or worried about being startled, such as by loud noises or the family dog.
• Just like you, your kitten likes it clean. Scoop out waste often and change the litter tray every few weeks.
• A kitten’s litter box usage is more frequent than that of an adult cat. Stir litter crystals once a week to distribute
saturated crystals to better accommodate high urine output.
NOTE Although the ScoopFree Self-Cleaning Litter Box is quiet when running and only runs after use, you
may want to leave it unplugged for a few days so your cat can get used to it without any distractions. If you
leave it unplugged, you need to manually scoop solid waste from the ScoopFree Self-Cleaning Litter Box until
your cat is fully transitioned. Also if you are using a hood on the ScoopFree and have not used one in the past,
you may want to remove it until your cat is using the ScoopFree for its litter box.
