Are you thinking of switching to an automatic litter box? Daily scooping becomes a thing of the past as your cat’s wastes and associated odors are neatly stashed away after each use. 

Learn five reasons why pet parents are switching to automatic litter boxes - and wishing they’d done it sooner.
 

5 Benefits of Switching To A Self-Cleaning Litter Box

1. Your cat gets a clean bed of litter every time. With regular litterboxes, your cat may use the box multiple times between scoops, so they likely need to dig through the soiled litter to find a clean spot. An automatic litterbox disposes of clumps and poop after every use, keeping your cat’s paws cleaner.
2. Automatic litter boxes use less litter. With an automatic litter box, you will still need to dump and refresh the litter from time to time. But since the soiled litter is quickly removed after each use, unused litter stays cleaner, and you may be able to go longer between cleanings, leading to less litter use overall.
3. Your cat’s litter box is always clean, even when you’re not home. With a regular litterbox, you have to scoop once, twice, or even three times a day, especially if you have multiple cats. With an automatic litterbox, your cat always has a fresh bed of litter, even if you’re away from home for hours each day. If you leave your cat at home while you’re out of town, your pet sitter will only need to stop in to feed your cat and give them company, and you’ll always come home to a clean litterbox.
4. You’ll reduce your exposure to dust and odors. Scooping can be messy, especially if you’re sensitive to dust or odors. It can also be an obstacle if you’re concerned about pathogens, particularly for family members who may be pregnant or have a compromised immune system. With an automatic litter box, you only need to dispose of soiled litter once a week or as infrequently as once a month with PetSafe ScoopFree. 
5. You can track your cat’s litter box use. Automatic litter boxes come with a built-in counter or connect to a smartphone app that you can use to keep track of how often your cat uses it. Changes in your cat’s litter box use can be a symptom of a health or behavioral issue. Increased litter box use can point to kidney disease, urinary tract infection, or diabetes, while decreased use can indicate that your cat may be relieving themselves elsewhere in your home.
