I enjoy the concept and the design , but I think it's a little big and has a few safety issues..hopefully i didn't miss something and it only cycles manually and not automatically .....if it's auto with the chain at the bottom being exposed. ...with my cats I could see an unintentionally amputated tail with the way they like lying under things. With the way my cat isn't spooked by much he'd just lay there until it was too late. Or my other cat attacks anything that moves and would stick his paw in the moving chain and get a manicure the hard way....Another thing is what about when your cats are older or maybe get sickly? Climbing the tree to get to the box may become difficult or be a bad idea for older less agile cats (maybe borderline cruel) Would you tell your grandmother... "Sure, you can use the bathroom, it's on the 4th floor on the other side of the maze". I'm sure mine would punch me in the face if I said that to her . Also, for what you spent on materials and equipment to build it....you probably could have bought a litter robot or equivalent. ..maybe even 2 of them....sensors, electronics, ball screws and pillow blocks aren't cheap. I get it...it's a stick it to big corporation project or I can do it better project, but there should be a line between that and futility. Just my 2 cents. You accomplished what you set out to build....so congrats on that. Time to refine it.

Well done sir. I appreciate the over-engineering of the mechanics. May I suggest adding some synthetic waterproof sheets around the inside of the business area. I see it's painted, but something as simple as sheet flooring or laminate (formica) would hold up better in the long run. Not being a software guy, I would have used a few logic gates to control the motor, but hey, if you can use a computer, why not? A big thumbs up!

This is the kinda stuff I can't wait to do when I get a house of my own. Haha. I am not knowledgeable though to know how to do calculations and what not in excel, just an inventor and tinkerer kind of mind from being a mech eng minor, but ended up in graphic design and motion graphics. I don't know why, but for me, can't wait to make a pneumatic garage door with allen bradley buttons on a remote control panel by the door, haha. Would be so loud and unnecessary, but would sound so cool. Haha. Can't wait! XD What type of engineer are you by profession?

The best thing about this is actually the carpet ramp. Does it work 100%?
@briandavies48802 жыл бұрын
That was my primary goal in doing this: keeping the litter in the box. It seems to work 100% with two of our cats. However, a 3rd cat has longer tufts of fur just above his paws (inside of his “wrists”) that seem to carry a bit of litter onto the top 2 steps. I can tell when he uses it because there will be maybe 5 grains on the top step and a couple more on the 2nd. But still, this is a 99% improvement over the literal piles of litter that they would shovel out of our prior litter box on a daily basis. Every few months I pull out the shop vac to clean the pile of litter that accumulates at the bottom of the carpeted ramps. So, we know the ramps are doing their job, especially since that is exclusively litter that was stuck to their feet as they are not able to throw litter up into the ramp area.

Prior to this, our cats preferred to poop outside in the field behind our house or in the neighbor’s flower-beds rather than using the commercially available litter box we owned. It’s now common for them to meow to come inside just so they can go downstairs and use this litter box. You clearly don’t understand cats.
