I got a weird problem involving both of my cats (Siegfrieda, to the left; Kika, to the right).

Kika is rather particular about having her own litterbox(es), and refuses to use a litterbox shared by another cat. Frieda on the other hand is adept to the "if I fits, I sits, I shits" philosophy, and is totally OK sharing litterboxes.

That creates a problem: no matter if properly and regularly cleaned, the only one using litterboxes here is Frieda. We had, like, five of them at once; and Kika would still rather do her business on the patio.

How do I either teach Kika "it's fine to share a litterbox", or teach Siegfrieda "that's Kika's litterbox, leave it alone"?

I mean I could probably do it with around 100 bucks in hardware….

Convincing the CIA or NSA or FBI or half a dozen alphabet soup agencies that you really need their facial recognition code in a FOIA request…. That’s both priceless and probably expensive at the same time.

Probably easier to just do some machine learning stuff. Cat recognition, no chips needed.
