litter-robot
Litter-Robot is designed as an upgrade to prevent paw prints and mess. This self-cleaning, oval-shaped commode serves as a smoother way for kittens to do their business.
Garnering a steady following of over 114k on Instagram, Litter-Robot seems to be a favorite among pet owners. The nifty invention has also been featured in numerous media outlets, including The Wall Street Journal, BuzzFeed, and CNN.
Being a cat-parent takes a bit of patience and determination. Founder Brad Baxter knew this all too well, as he was responsible for cleaning out his kitten’s litter box. On his hundredth or so scoop, Baxter quickly realized how inconvenient the whole process was. And so, in an effort to revolutionize the traditional waste tray, he created his invention in 1999.
Formally known as AutoPets, the Litter-Robot made its first-ever debut in the animal product industry. Baxter’s lightbulb idea quickly turned into a giant warehouse facility based in Wisconsin. With their headquarters located in Auburn Hills, Michigan, that pet-forward company continues to serve over 600k customers globally.
Your parents were right from the beginning. Owning a pet does require a heightened level of responsibility. With that being said, it doesn’t have to be complicated and labor-inducing!
For those who grimace at the thought of scooping poop, the Litter-Robot 3 features a self-cleaning mode. Built with a self-adjusting weight sensor, a drop-down drawer, and a cycle timer, this nifty gadget saves both litter usage and cleanup time.
By far, the best part about this invention is that it reduces certain odors. This is all thanks to its carbon-filtered drawer on the bottom. Big enough to hold 3 to 4 cats at a time, save yourself the chore of scooping with the Litter-Robot 3 for $449.
Upon ordering the Litter-Robot litter box, pet owners will also find an extra carbon filter, three waste drawer liners, a 15-volt DC power supply, and a user manual alongside their order.
Built with Wi-Fi connectivity, the 3 Connect Litter-Robot allows pet owners to view the machine’s performance throughout the day. Paired with their mobile app, customers can see the waste drawer levels and usage history.
Not only does this take out the guesswork in cleaning out the bottom drawer, but it can act as a great indicator of your cat’s overall health.
Like all models, this Litter-Robot 3 open air automatic self-cleaning litter box comes with a mechanical waste separator. It filters out the turds, but it can also reduce foul odors from spreading.

For those who spent most of their savings on cat toys, kibble, and miniature clothing, the 2 Reconditioned Litter-Robot comes at a solid bargain. Offered at a lower price, this older model provides the same traditional features such as the poop separator and the lip extender. With its bubble shape, it kind of looks like an astronaut helmet—but intended for kitten explorers only.
