Self Aleaning Cat Litter Box

If you're like many cat owners, the self cleaning cat litter box is very intriguing to you. After all, who likes scooping smelly cat waste out of the litter box? These litter boxes are more expensive than the old fashioned kind but are worth it for those who truly dislike cleaning up after their cat or kitten. After the very first self cleaning box came out, other manufacturers followed suit and created their own versions. Currently there are numerous litter boxes in stores and online with self cleaning mechanisms.


There are certain features to look for when shopping for one of these innovative litter boxes. First of all, the box you choose should have a sensor that indicates when your cat steps in and out. You don't want a sensor that is triggered when your cat is still in the box or it may scare them away from using it. This may cause them to urinate and defecate on the carpet or other areas of your home. The sensor should trigger the cleaning mechanism after your kitty is completely out of the box. The cleaning mechanism is usually a rake type apparatus that pushes the waste to the disposal area while leaving the clean litter intact.

The disposal area is another factor to consider when shopping for one of these litter boxes. While the lower quality boxes move the waste to one end of the box, the better ones actually move the waste into a separate covered removable container. This is a feature you definitely want to have. That way when you go to dump the waste there is no scooping required, just dump out the waste container into your preferred trash receptacle.

You can find all kinds of self cleaning cat litter box models and manufacturers at popular pet stores like PetSmart and Petco. You can also shop at discount superstores like Wal-Mart and Target as well. Self cleaning boxes can even be ordered online. These litter boxes are made by top brands like Petmate, Littermaid and Cat Genie. There are other brands as well you may come across on store shelves. Make sure to compare features of each box you're considering to make sure your investment into a more convenient litter box is worth the money you're paying. The price for self cleaning boxes starts around $60 and goes up from there depending upon the manufacturer, features and where you shop.
