Acclimating Your Cat to the ScoopFree® Clumping Self-Cleaning Litter Box

The acclimation process will vary from cat to cat. The most important part of the process is giving your cat enough time to acclimate. This article outlines some techniques you can try to help your cat accept your new ScoopFree® self-cleaning litter box.

Place Next to the Old Box

Place the ScoopFree® litter box next to your old litter box and leave unplugged for a day or two. This will allow your cat to explore her curiosities about the new litter box without being spooked by the automatic raking.

Allow your cat access to the old and new litter boxes for at least a week. Time may vary depending on each individual cat and its habits.


Old Litter to the ScoopFree

Scoop some litter (about ½ cup) from the old litter box and sprinkle across the ScoopFree® litter tray. This will help your cat feel more comfortable with the new litter box by introducing a familiar smell.


Make ScoopFree® the Preferred Place.

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® more appealing.

Once your cat has transitioned to the ScoopFree® Litter Box, remove the old litter box from the area.
