Great for keeping kitty off the counters4
The Ssscat does what it says - it senses your cat, and then lets loose a spray and an alarm squeal. We have a very bad cat, but after a few encounters with this thing, he has stayed off the countertops. We recently got a second, so that we can have one for the dining room table and one for the baby's bassinet, and they're working fine as well. (You can call me a control freak, but there's something very satisfying about hearing the spray & alarm at 2 in the morning, followed by the sounds of a running cat.)

A couple pieces of advice: (1) You will need 4 AAA batteries per unit. (2) The spray is good for a few months to a year, depending on how many times you forget the unit is there and spray yourself. At that point, you can either buy the refill can or just rely on the sound alarm. (3) The alarm usually goes off once after you arm the unit, while it's "warming up." To avoid wasting a spray, I set it to "sound only" until the warm up alarm is over, then turn it to the "sound + spray" setting.

Scat the Cat Works!5
Cats and kitties get into bad habits. SSSCat - Automated Cat Repellent does the job of breaking those habits. Once the cat gets sprayed the first time by that puff of air, it will warily avoid the area of the device. You can turn off the device and at least my cat stayed clear of the area if it can see the Scat Cat from its approach.

The device is harmless but it has startled me countless times when I have forgotten about it. If it does that to me, imagine how it affects the cat! Little boys though, gleefully love setting it off.

This is my second order of two SSSCat's. For my first two units, the sensor wore out in about a year to 18 months. Either the tone quits and it just puffs air or the tone works and will not shoot out the air puff even though the can feels heavy with compressed air.

It is a highly effective product but in my experience it will wear out too soon.

SSSCat uses four AAA batteries that can run down quickly. I use rechargeable Energizer batteries as in most of my other gadgets. The initial expense of rechargeables is high but they last for years of heavy use with proper recharging.

Humane way to deal with territorial cats5
One of our cats likes to piddle on the futon in our porch. I have two ssscats set up in there. Now she stays away even though they are not turned on. She just has to see them and she runs. It is a safe, effective, and humane way to deal with any kitties who might have a favorite spot to pee, other than the litter box.
