Don't Buy a Self-Cleaning Litter Box Until You've Read This

By: Dr. Elin Lindell, Veterinarian, specialist in feline medicine

Keeping the litter box clean is one of the most time-consuming and least-liked tasks for cat owners. Poor litter box hygiene can lead to your cat avoiding it, which in turn can cause health problems and unwanted behaviors. Fortunately, there are modern solutions that can make this daily routine easier.

Why is a clean litter box important?

Cats are clean animals that prefer a clean environment for their needs. A dirty litter box can lead to the cat starting to relieve itself outside the box, which can be frustrating for the owner and stressful for the cat. According to a study published in the Journal of Feline Medicine and Surgery , one of the most common reasons cats are abandoned or put in animal shelters is litter box problems.

Benefits of self-cleaning litter boxes

Self-cleaning litter boxes offer several advantages:

Reduced odor: By automatically removing feces and urine, the risk of bad odors in the home is reduced.

Less maintenance: You avoid the daily task of cleaning the litter box manually.

Increased hygiene: A cleaner environment reduces the risk of bacterial growth and the spread of diseases.

Better for the cat: Cats prefer a clean box, which can reduce stress and unwanted behaviors.
