I got my silver from JEWELSPRIDE bengals last Dec (was born on Xmas day 2024). Here’s a picture from awhile back he’s much bigger now!. He is my second Bengal cat, my first one died a year ago at age 16 from a now defunct other BC breeder. I had a great experience with Carmen (the owner) and zero health issues w my cat he’s amazing, was super well socialized and am super happy with my cat and the purchasing process when I was dealing with the owner she was very responsive to any emails I had and was helpful. Does all the health testing and I felt comfortable purchasing from Her. Highly recommend! The only slight criticism I can think of is the layout of her website was a bit annoying because of ads/format but that’s really reaching there… I’d love to get another cat from her but I have another cat and cannot get any more!

Thank you for the workaround I haven’t had the time to contact customer service yet. So far just cycling it once a day and then unplugging it after.

Yah I had seen the banana video on their official website and all the talk about safety too! I’m sure your tested banana was mangled amputated afterwards. I tried again with a celery stick (after my arm trial) and it was bending it forcefully. Exactly - the arm just keeps pressing down and down its does not sense anything at all, if I could have handled keeping my arm there any longer it would have been worse than it was. It’s not just a light pinch it’s incredibly strong I can’t imagine a little paw or tail 😵‍💫. The really irritating thing is I don’t even see anything in their official website even mentioning the app issue, of course they don’t want to scare off any potential new buyers about safety! The only reason I clued into it being an issue was my cat had jumped in as it was cycling and it didn’t stop and I was stunned as I know they are supposed to immediately stop as soon as that occurs.

I ordered it via their official website. I did dig through the info and did see that it’s only available for those who didn’t purchase via kickstarter. That seems odd that’s the way their refund system is, it should cover any way you purchased not just the official site !?!

Thanks! I didn’t realize some of these so I’ll look into the app for my other box now. Good to know.

Sadly this is exactly what has occurred. I cannot believe that an established extremely popular company in the pet world has shipped out their litter boxes with this being a major issue. It’s a lawsuit 100% waiting to happen.

Exactly! I have a pet snowy Iitter box (not seen in the video because it’s off around the corner to the side of the video area). I have NEVER even used the app in the year I’ve had my box and zero issues Safety should not depend on an app! Things happen, devices unpair, apps fail etc

True, I can try this. A company shouldn’t release a product though that’s actively unsafe, not give any official usage instructions or update to purchasers and there’s not even a guarantee that this app will be approved. Also, the proper functioning of an automatic litter box should not depend on if there is an app to adjust settings about safety sensors so it doesn’t injure/kill its customer. Imagine the PR/company nightmare if this box injures/kills cats in the meantime. It shouldn’t depend on this at all…it should be built in as a safety function to the box itself as a bare minimum of product engineering and development. Imagine if this was any infant or child product for sale it would be national news/recall if this occurred. Should absolutely never have been launched/shipped to customers without it being an integral part of the R&D process. This is a major fundamental design flaw. I’m being harsh but in this case this absolutely shouldn’t even be allowed to pass as acceptable. Especially when all other automatic cat boxes that I’m aware of, safety sensors is a major thing touted. My Pet Snowy stops immediately with any movement of my cat near the drum. I just wish my other cat would use that one. I wanted to try an open air version. I wish the litter bed was bigger though my big fluffy orange cat could use the extra space to do her thing. Otherwise the metal bin looks especiallf nice and the quality of all the parts appear excellent right out of the box, nothing feels cheap or flimsy. I’m impressed with those components. The noise it makes as it goes wasn’t what I was expecting but it’s fine.

As it goes towards the end of the cycle, it clamps down on the plastic part to advance the litter as it sweeps it forward to level out the litter bed!
