A peek inside
the series.....
Dearest Earl:
Little did we know that our decision to enter the Litter Robot for a leisurely bathroom break would turn into the wildest ride of our lives! This futuristic contraption appeared to be an ordinary litter box, but once we stepped inside, it was a whole new world. With buttons and dials that seemed straight out of a sci-fi movie, Buddy and I couldn't resist exploring further. Suddenly, the Litter Robot sprang to life, lights flashing and motors whirring, and before we knew it, we were zooming through space and time!
Yours,
Milo
