Mac Mini Powers Automated Cat Litter Box
 

A few days ago I saw this great idea some guy named Chris had for venting litter box fumes out of the house with a bathroom fan (calling it a cat jet). Brilliant considering how no matter how often I clean the box, the smell makes the garage unbearable, especially in summer. So this weekend I stepped that up a notch by using my home automation system and a motion detector to automate the process using timed events.
