- How does the self-cleaning cycle work?
- After a cat leaves, the box waits, then rakes clumps into a lined waste bin. Sensors and a weight check pause the cycle if a cat is inside.
- How many cats can it handle?
- It works best for one or two cats. With more cats the waste bin fills fast and the rake runs more often.
- What litter should I use?
- Use standard clumping clay litter. Fine or lightweight litters can slip past the rake and cause jams.
- Does it need an app or subscription?
- No. It runs on its own controls with no app, Wi-Fi or subscription.
- How often do I need to clean it?
- Empty the waste bin every few days and wipe the hood and interior regularly. A full deep clean every few weeks keeps odor down.
- Is it safe for kittens?
- Only for kittens heavy enough to trigger the weight sensor. Very small kittens may not register, so check the minimum weight.
