Litter-Robot Does the Kitty Litter Dirty Work

Pet care and cleanup is another dirty job that we humans would like to hand off to robots. One of the biggies would be taking care of the kitty litter. Litter-Robot from Automated Pet Care Products won’t actually walk the used litter to your trash can, but it will free you from the worst part: the chore of litter box scooping. Cleaning the litter now becomes as easy as simply changing a kitchen bag every few days.

Here’s how it works: your cat steps inside the Litter-Robot globe to her business. Seven minutes later, the globe slowly spins and gently sorts and dumps the waste clumps from the litter and into a standard sized kitchen bag in a tray at the bottom of the unit. All you need to do is take that bag to the trash and refill the globe with fresh litter every few days.

What about safety? The globe does not contain any mechanisms or wires that could harm your cat. And the globe won’t rotate if the cat sensor detects the presence of your cat; it will wait for 15 seconds before attempting to resume the clean cycle. The Litter-Robot operates on at a safe 12 Volts DC using an adapter, and there are no electrical components inside the globe. Watch the animation in the video below.

What if your cat won’t venture inside the globe? Cats are naturally inquisitive and should not have any reservations about using Litter-Robot. But, if for any reason, they don’t like it, the company offers a 60-day return.

Here’s a great user video of the the Litter-Robot in action:
