CitiKitty: Cat Toilet Training Kit

In 1978 I invented the kITTY Whiz Transfer System. to date over a million cats have been automatically taught to use the toilet with this product. The CityKitty is a cheap copy of my product and does not work.

The Kitty Whiz works but since I have invented a better system , unfortunately, I just can't get myself to go down that road again.

It's funny, I got a call once from a reporter who worked for th eNational Enquirer and he just didn't believe me.

Wrong wrong wrong. I'm a cat trainer - believe it or not, you can train almost any cat to do pretty much anything (under certain conditions anyway). I'm the trainer and performer for the Acro-Cats...they play instruments, jump through hoops, roll over, speak, sit pretty, stick-em-up, and a lot more. They're all free cats too...not in cages or tortured. Just regular ol' house cats. And...my cat is potty trained. I didn't use Citikitty, I used the aluminum pan method. Worked GREAT.

I am the father of this industry. I invented the Kitty Whiz Transfer System. I was on a 2,000+ radio shows and a couple of hundred radio shows and stories appeared in every newspaper on earth. The City-Kitty is just another cheap knock off of my Kitty Whiz Transfer System, except they don't have a clue about the science behind the Kitty Whiz. I could easily explain what is wrong with this product and other knock off, but then they would know how to make it the right way and I an not interested in helping these morons. The Kitty Whiz was invented in 1978. My first appeared in the Chicago Reader mid-1979. Newsweek had a television production company that created human interest news clips and distributed them to subscribing television stations. NBC's Real People purchased the clip and aired it a total of 8 times.
The product was sold to Vo Toys because I was not treated well within the pet product industry. The genius of my invention is still being ignored. I also had an automatic flushing system. At first I hired a couple of engineers who charged me a small fortune and they were completely uninspired. So I built two my self. The first one used a tropical plant probe which was placed in the toilet bowl water. when the cat urinated the problem would generate a small electrical current. The current would turn on a fish tank air pump, which blew up a balloon with the water tank. The balloon would rise and pull the flapper and cause the toilet to flush. Then it would automatically reset. The second one is the one that we actually sold. We attached a flat small metal bar about 3 inches long to the top left of the toilet lid. I then replaced the flush handle with a push handle. When the seat was up, the bar met the push flusher. I then took a 4" Styrofoam cylinder and using a band saw, I cut a grove to lengthwise to the middle of the cylinder. When a cats uses a toilet they paw the back of the seat, as if they were pawing at dirt to cover their waste. The pawing created just enough pressure with the cylinder slid over the flapper chain to cause the toilet to flush. Before I invented this product know one had even considered toilet training a cat. So, copy me all you want, but at least give me credit.

It's not a hoax, it can be done, although I never used any kits. Check out "The Toilet Trained Cat" for proof... they have videos of their cats doing it!

lots of cats have been toilet trained. my cat used to be toilet trained. just go on youtube, theres tons of evidence.

I invented the Kitty Whiz Transfer system in 1978. I was on a dozen television shows, in every newspaper on earth and did over two thousand radio interviews that year. My cat, Felix, called Felicia on Real People because the producer, George Schlatter was afraid of being sued by the trademark owners of Felix the Cat. Anywhys, most of these systems if not all of them are copies of the Kitty Whiz. I sold the product to Vo Toys in 1981. They work, but I have since refined the system and soon I will be coming out with a new version of the Kitty Whiz. My product will also automatically teach your cat to flush.

Don't know whether any of your diligent commentators still monitor this post, since it's been inactive for a couple of years, but if you do and you're still doubtful about the ability to toilet train a cat, go to Youtube and type in "litter kwitter" or just visit our website at http://www-litter-kwitter-usa.com and you'll see plenty of real videos of cats using the toilet.

Ok this is real. My uncles cat would go on the toilet. We tried to train our cats awhile back with this training system. It was a plastic toilet cover and you put it over the toilet with litter in it. Each week you would cut out form the middle till eventually the cats will just go on the plain toilet. Did it work? Well sort of. They would pee, but no poop. They would poop in the house. It was also nasty as hell to remove the thing everytime we had to do our business! Needless to say it was back to the litter box, then we finally switched to a cat genie. They are fantastic!

Its a real thing, you can toilet train a cat. But this "product" is a scam, all you do is get a normal catbox (Preferable small enough to fit in a toilet bowl) and just put it in the toilet, fill it with litter, then eventually get rid of the box and turn off the water to the toilet, then fill the toilet with litter, finally you can start putting in water, if I remember the steps correctly. The thing is, the entire thing takes a long, long time and you have to start with a kitten to really get it into their heads.

i personally have had 2 cats in the past that i trained to use the toilet. it was great!! i'm getting ready to train the one i have now...cats are extremely smart!! i'm so sick of the litter box!! you don't have to use a kit. i used a disposable baking pan and slowly cut holes out of it. it works and it's cheap!!

I know for a fact that this is true in some cases, because my boyfriend trained his previous cat using the citikitty system. He says he followed the directions exactly and his cat had no problems or accidents along the way. It would also use other toilets when they went on vacation.

Sounds nice, so I thought I'd try the citikitty with my new four month old cat. It's not going as smoothly as it did for him - my kitty is finally starting to pee in the toilet, but poops on the floor in front of the toilet. If I can catch her in the act, I pick her up so that she finishes in the toilet, but since I'm not always home or awake when it happens, that's not always possible. Not sure yet how this will turn out!
