Did you know December and January are when gyms sell the most gym memberships? The most popular New Year resolutions are weight loss and to get in shape, and many of us (I know I have tried this) assume that buying the gym membership will be enough motivation. Sometimes it even works, but rarely for very long. Instead, here are some easy ways to get motivated to lose weight (and then stay motivated once you’ve started!): Be nice to yourself. One of the hardest parts is admitting and then deciding to lose weight so congratulate yourself for doing that! The negative records that play in ...

With the holiday season gearing up into full swing, most of us are more concerned about how big of a turkey (and then tree) to get than we are about our flexible spending account through work. Financial experts will tell you that is a big mistake – if you have a medical flexible spending account (FSA) through your employer and you don’t use that money by the end of the year then you’ll lose it. That’s right – use it or lose it. This is also the time of year for open enrollment for employee benefits, so if you haven’t been taking advantage of your ability to save through a FSA...

Have you ever suffered from back pain, whether it’s just occasional or chronic, but do not have the money to drop on a massage or a chiropractor visit? Stretching your back is the easiest way to relieve tense muscles in the entire back area but unless you’ve been directed on how to do it exactly, stretching on your can be more harmful than helpful. There are products out on the market that cater to these needs specifically; these back stretchers are endorsed by personal trainers, physicians and even massage therapists so stop worrying about expensive medical bills with the investment of a ...

People love cats for the companionship they offer and the entertainment their antics provide, but as we get older, taking care of our furry feline friends can become more difficult. Those with arthritis, Parkinsons, ailments due to stroke, lower back pain, back injuries, or knee/hip replacements will find it difficult to bend down and scoop the litter or clean the kitty litter box.

Thankfully two new products have made it possible for people to enjoy having a cat for years to come: the Scoop Free Automatic Self Cleaning Litter Box and the CatGenie Self-Flushing, Self-Washing Cat Box. These two automatic kitty litter boxes take away the need to scoop kitty litter and clean the cat litter boxes, but in different ways.

CatGenie

The Cat Genie requires some installation: it draws water from your toilet or washing machine power supply and deposits waste in your toilet bowl or laundry waste water pipe. Rather than using actual cat litter, the CatGenie uses special washable granules that are rinsed with water and the included SaniSolution when used. While the CatGenie is more expensive and requires some installation, it requires much less frequent long-term maintenance and ideal for homes with multiple cats.

Scoop Free Automatic Litter Box

The Scoop Free Automatic Self Cleaning Litter Box costs much less than the CatGenie and takes a different approach to cleaning. The Scoop Free uses prepacked trays of cat litter that slide under the main unit. Sensors in the automatic litter box detect when your cat has used it, then drag a rake across the granules, pushing waste into a trap at the end, helping to eliminate odors. The Scoop Free refill trays typically last approximately one month for households with one cat, which is much better than standard litter boxes.

Both the Scoop Free Automatic Self Cleaning Litter Box and the CatGenie Self-Flushing, Self-Washing Cat Box are great products. Choosing which one will work best for you depends on your situation. For households with more than one cat, we recommend the CatGenie. If you only have one cat, the Scoop Free is a much more cost-effective approach.

    I love the catgenie and find it well worth the investment. If you can justify it and afford it. They can be temperamental (I guess like a roomba)… but customer service is really strong. You do need to clean it every once and a while and that can be gross. Look on youtube for cool videos of it in operation and folks showing how they have cleaned it…. etc.

    The CatGenie is the best investment I’ve ever made. It gets rid of the hassle of scooping litter everyday. The CatGenie is also Eco-friendly, the washable reusable granules are also biodegradable as are the sani-solution cartridges. I would recommend the cat genie to anyone.
