Stopped our counter surfing kitties! Aug 23, 2011
By S. Kirby
Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R2O5I5Q8RICGTL We put up a camera to catch our new kitty getting on the counters but we found we had more than one counter surfer!
Edit:
I'm going to add some more info now that we've had the Ssscat for awhile. I took it down from 5 stars to 4 mostly because it doesn't always work. As you can see in the video with the second cat. I thought it was because of the batteries but after testing with fresh/more powerful batteries I found that it simply works when it wants too.
The reason I still give it 4 stars is because it's put fear into my cats and simply placing in an area I don't want them to be seems to be enough to keep them away.
So all in all, it's done what we need it to do even if it doesn't always work the way it's supposed to, however it is a bit overpriced for something that doesn't always work.

Great for keeping kitty off the counters Aug 11, 2005
By Joseph
"jck09"
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.

 Humane way to deal with territorial cats Sep 30, 2005
By Susan J. Budge
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.

 Works...sometimes. Nov 30, 2007
By Davido
I had an older model of the Sscat that had an alarm which would sound before it sprayed. You could set it to "alarm only" - no spray - after your cat was trained. This would save on canisters of air, which are outrageously expensive and are smaller now (by almost half) than they use to be. The original canister was wider also, which made the unit more stable. These new tiny canisters are too small and make it top-heavy and difficult to balance the unit on uneven surfaces.
The new model has "spray only" - no alarm. I suspect the manufacturer figured out they could make more $ on the canisters without the alarm.
The original model lasted about 2 years. This new model works only intermittently, so occasionally I find my cat sitting right next to it.
Bottom line: Too expensive, not reliable. Find something else.

 Keeps my wife and I off the counters. Feb 08, 2011
By GIJEFF
"GIJEFF"
I assembled and set this item up on my kitchen counter. I wanted to train my cat to believe that the universe would punish him for intruding upon the place where food comes from. My wife and I hid around the corner, and got ready for some laughs. The cat jumped on the counter, and went about his business knocking down food items for the other cat, who I suspect is the actual brains of the operation. The SSSCAT sat silently, implicitly advocating the intrusion through inaction; like the Vatican during the Holocaust.
Finally, I grabbed my coffee can full of pennies, and did what had to be done. The SSSCAT responded by spraying me with air, from about 10 feet away.
And that's the SSSCAT for you. It has deterred the cat approximately zero times for every dozen times it sprays a human. We don't go near the counters anymore. Conversely, our cat has doubled his countergoing efforts; possibly to mock our attempts to curtail the incursions, for he knows good and well that the SSSCAT is on his side.
I predict at this point that the SSSCAT will eventually deplete itself and end up in the trash. I certainly don't plan to buy any refills.
And maybe someday down the road, my wife and I will re-learn how to approach the kitchen counter without fear.
