How does a self-cleaning litter box work?
Are you tired of using a traditional scoop litter box but unsure if a self-cleaning litter box will work for your household? Have no worries, we’ll explore all the benefits and show you exactly why an automatic cat litter box is a fantastic choice.
So, how exactly does a self-cleaning litter box work? The simplest answer is that an automatic litter box, like the Kingsen Smart Litter Box, detects when your cat has used the bathroom and cycles the waste into a waste receptacle. It requires zero scooping!
The Kingsen Smart Litter BoxConnect works in five simple steps:
- First, following your cat using the automatic cat litter box, the globe starts to slowly rotate after a 3-, 7-, or 15-minute preset delay.
- The sifting process separates the clean litter from the clumps.
- All clumps are then deposited into a drawer below that is carbon-filtered to help control odors.
- After deposits are made to the waste drawer, the globe returns to its normal position, ready to be utilized again.
- Finally, when the waste drawer is full, you simply remove it and dispose of the waste.
Automatic self cleaning litter boxes rely on a power source to rake through your cat’s waste and dispose it into a waste bin based on a set time program.
You can set the timer to scoop between 5-20 minutes after your cat has left the box (depending on the model), which is quite convenient. Semi-automatic boxes scoop on their own terms, meaning setting the timer is not possible.
As for non-automatic or manual self-cleaning litter boxes, although they scoop on their own, you do need to roll or sift them in order to remove the waste from the bin.
Generally, automatic self cleaning cat litter boxes have a receptacle beneath or at one end of the box itself. A mechanical rake moves through the litter and sifts out your kitty’s waste products, depositing it into the receptacle. Odors are contained in the receptacle until you empty the receptacle by some sort of enclosure or top.

With a self-cleaning litter box, a waste compartment sifts, rakes, flushes or otherwise collects feline waste, allowing you minimal contact with cat urine and feces and eliminating the need to scoop the litter tray daily. Most of the automatic litter boxes detect when your cat has used it and will clean up so that the next time they go, they have fresh, clean cat litter.
That being said, many cat owners have had a lot of success with automatic litter boxes. Now that you understand why self-cleaning litter boxes are so popular among the cat community, there’s only one last question to ask: What will you be doing with all the time you save from not having to scoop cat litter every day?
