Pet Potty lets dogs and cats do their business in an air conditioner-like window box

For those who don’t live in a palatial house with ample space for beloved pets, here is a space-saving idea that may just solve the question of where to put the kitty liter box. Katio and Dogio allows owners to discretely stow the kitty liter box in the window. At least it’s pretty discrete on the inside. On the outside, not so much. And for those who don’t like to be bothered with walking the dog at odd hours of the night or the wee hours of the morning, there is also a version for the family dog that comes with a ramp – provided Fido can fit in a space slightly smaller than the size of a window. For older cats that don’t jump so well anymore, a ramp can be purchased separately. This campaign seeks to raise $250,000 by November 24, 2014. For $250, backers can get a cat unit, or $300 for a dog unit. This is a $50 savings off of anticipated retail. Expected delivery is April 2015.

The Poo Puck reduces offensive stench when cleaning up after Fido

The Poo PuckWell, the video says it’s “fun to use.” What an interesting notion that picking up dog waste could be an even remotely fun experience. Nevertheless, The Poo Puck is supposed to achieve just such an objective.  How, you want to know? So glad that question was bravely asked. The three-piece system is designed in such a way that the product can be placed on top of the poo and the user can, no, not kick it, but step on it. Poo then adheres to a disposable honeycomb type mechanism so that distance gets placed between one’s shoe and the poo. Backers can get theirs for $15 (comes with 5 refills) and an expected delivery of October 2014. The sooner the better, right?
