Our guides and reviews to help you choose your automatic litter box
What should you consider when choosing an automatic litter box?
The interior must allow your cat to turn around and scratch comfortably. Distinguish the external dimensions from those of the usable compartment, then check the entry height and weight limits stated in the manual. For a kitten, age and weight restrictions related to detection deserve particular attention.
The sifting mechanism determines which types of litter are compatible and the cleaning requirements. Examine what triggers the cycle, how it stops when the cat is present and the delay after the cat leaves. The waste compartment capacity, its ability to contain odours, removable parts and features available without a connection also affect everyday use.
