Why We Need a Smart Cat Litter Box

Apr 09, 2022

1. Why buy a cat litter box?
A family with cats, wake up in the morning and go out to work to shovel shit, come back from get off work after a hard day and come back to shovel shit, one is not awake, and the other is tired and doesn't want to move. To shovel shit in this situation is just too much of a headache.

After a day at work, there is a pile of excrement in the cat litter box, and cats come in and out. Do you think you will accidentally step on it? In addition, it was too late to shovel shit because I stayed in bed. In the end, the cat litter box didn't even have a place to put my feet. It was really a cat that was desperate, and I was also desperate.

The most tragic scene I encountered before was the cat's soft stool + stepping on the cake. Finally, when I got home, I found a bunch of strange-colored cat footprints on the floor, which was crazy.

Every day, shoveling shit for as little as 15 minutes and as much as 40 minutes. Wouldn’t it be more fun to use this time to exercise (swipe Tiktok).

Do I really need to buy a cat litter box?

If you are still thinking about whether the smart cat litter box is suitable for you, you can ask yourself and tick the following 3 questions silently.

Do you think shoveling shit is a pleasure?
Is it a hassle to clean the cat litter box every day?
When shoveling shit, did you hold your breath and finish shoveling the shit because of the smell of the excrement?
None of the hooks means that the litter box is not a necessity for you and can save a lot of money

Tick 1 or 2, indicating that the cat litter box is a product that can be added to you, and the shovel is still within the acceptable range

If you tick 3, it is very painful for you to shovel shit every day. The cat litter box is indeed a product you need to buy now, and it is urgent.
2. How to choose a cat litter box (through safety, convenience and intelligence, let you know about the smart cat litter box)
1. How many cats are there in the house?

A single-cat family is definitely different from a multi-cat family. Make sure that there are several cats in the family and the size of the cat, so as to better determine the style and capacity of the cat litter box.

For a cat's family, a 7L (Xiao Pei takes a rough example) urinal is cleaned about once every 10 days

For a family of two cats, the 7L litter box needs to be cleaned about once a week.

Cats with large displacements, such as Maine Coon cats, Ragdoll cats, and large oranges, have a slightly higher cleaning frequency.

2. What is the difference between an automatic cat litter box and a traditional cat litter box

The cat litter box sold on the market starts at 500+, and the expensive one is 4000+. How much does it cost to buy a suitable one for you? Here, the differences between the two products are analyzed horizontally from the three most important aspects: security, convenience, and intelligence.
convenience

90% of people who buy smart cat litter boxes are for convenience. The more convenient the cat litter box, the better, automatic shoveling, automatic deodorization, etc.
1. Automatic shovel

The automatic cat litter box detects the entry of cats by weighing + infrared + somatosensory. After the cat exits the litter box, and there are no cats or other items within the detection range, the clumped cat litter is cleaned into the litter box by rotating the drum.
2. Regular deodorization

The smell of cat excrement, cat urine contains uric acid and enzyme protein, especially the ammonia content in unligated male cat urine is higher.

There are two ways to deodorize. One is a deodorant that relies on scent to cover up odor, which is highly efficient and has a strong ability to cover the smell. One is to use plant extraction or activated carbon odor absorption method to eliminate the odor, which is slightly less effective and easy to diffuse into the room.

3. Types of cat litter available

At present, there are three types of cat litter that are widely used by cat families, tofu cat litter, bentonite litter, and mixed litter. Smart cat litter boxes have different compatibility with cat litter, some only support bentonite, and some can use all three. There are no good or bad types available, and the most important thing is to combine them with your own needs.

4. Dismantling/cleaning convenience

The smart cat litter box eliminates the daily steps of shoveling shit, but periodic cleaning is still required. Generally speaking, it is to clean up the litter box and periodically replace the overall cat litter and clean it. The smart cat litter box with "one-key emptying" mode will be more convenient to use, and it is better to pull out the litter box in the front than in the back (because most cat litter boxes are placed against the wall) . In short, a litter box with fewer steps is better when it comes to dismantling or cleaning.

Safety

The smart cat litter box must be inseparable from the use and environment of the cat litter box in terms of safety. For example, whether the quality has passed the test, whether the structure of the litter box is reasonable, whether there are hidden dangers in the cleaning method, and the prevention of accidental cat jamming, etc., must be considered carefully.
1. Intelligent detection

Detecting whether the cat is in the litter box is the most important function of the entire cat litter box. The more detection methods, the stronger the security (as long as there is one test that shows the cat is in the litter box, it will not work). Generally, there are three kinds of safety inspections for cat litter boxes, and there are at most six safety inspection methods and countermeasures.

2. To deal with emergencies

Products involving intelligence naturally cannot avoid the question of "safety". It is not that abnormal situations are not allowed, but that corresponding measures can be taken in emergency situations. Functions such as anti-pinch device, infrared sensor device, gravity sensor device, remote alarm, etc., the machine will stop working immediately in case of emergency. Some cat litter boxes can be connected to the app, and if an abnormality occurs, the shovel officer will be notified through a notification or text message to increase security.

3. Child lock

Like the common smart appliances in the home, any operation key will lose its control function after the child lock is turned on, which effectively prevents the child from accidentally touching the litter box and causes danger, and also prevents the mature cat from pressing the key by himself.

smart

If the smart cat litter box can't simply accomplish our idea, it can be called "mentally retarded cat litter box". However, the understanding of intelligence is that there is a bottom line but no upper limit. The most basic bottom line is that it is more convenient than a manual cat litter box, getting rid of the trouble of shoveling shit every day, and completing tedious functions with one key. The upper limit includes app connection, data monitoring, fully automatic/semi-automatic operation, etc. Below I will combine these three aspects for analysis.
1.App control

In the era of smart phones, is it possible to monitor the current situation of various devices in the home through the network of mobile phones, does it have a feeling of controlling the whole family? When you get home and lie on the sofa, you can see the current situation of the cat litter box, and you can set up regular cleaning, which is very convenient.

2. Remaining material detection, toilet box detection (app prompt)

Common residual material detection includes residual cat litter detection, toilet box detection, deodorant detection, weight detection and so on.

Like cat litter detection, the amount of cat litter left in the cat litter box can be displayed on the mobile app and the screen that comes with the cat litter box after each cat litter cleaning.

The urinal box detection can be processed through the mobile phone app prompt to check the specific situation after the capacity of the urinal box reaches a certain value.

These kinds of functions are not introduced one by one. In short, this kind of function basically belongs to the situation where too little is too much.
3. Fully automatic/semi-automatic function

The fully automatic operation mode generally starts automatic cleaning at a specified time after the pet leaves the range after going to the toilet, without follow-up operations, while the semi-automatic operation requires manual operation by yourself (you can use the operation keys of the app and the litter box). The more automated the cat litter box is, the more convenient it is to use. Of course, it also tests the quality of the product. If you buy a high-end cat litter box, you can save a lot of trouble. If you buy a cat litter box with a low price, the brand It is good to blow the fully automatic system, but you must also check the reliability of the machine yourself.

4. Weight detection, toilet data recording (one-click clearing, etc.)

One-click dumping can be done through the app or the button selection on the fuselage. The remaining cat litter in the cat litter box is directly dumped into the litter box, and the bag can be thrown away by pulling out the bag, saving a lot of work. It saves you the trouble of picking up the five-pound cat litter box and pouring it into the litter box, or shoveling with a small shovel for five minutes.

With a smart cat litter box will help you gain lot of happy time.Please visit our web to get your favourite items.
