Our cat vs. the Roomba

Just picked up a Roomba... Yep, I'm a gadget freak!

Anyway as you can see Kashmir isn't too sure about it yet!

The run away definitely takes over. She has yet to attack it!

One of my bike riding friends has one. He was late getting home from work one day and his dog couldn't wait. His romba had dog poo smeared through 3 rooms of carpet.

Well, gotta give the Roomba an A for effort Maybe they'll come out with a steam cleaning Roomba with poo sensing technology.

That wouldn't be a fun thing to come home to! They do make a Scuba which cleans tile floors with disinfecting cleaner. Not going to do much for poo on carpet though
