Regular & Automatic Cat Litter Boxes Table Comparison
With the emergence of many innovations for kitty litter boxes, it is no surprise that various types of litter boxes for cats are available in the market. Litter boxes are indoor “comfort rooms” for your cats. It is very ideal for cat lovers who do not have the luxury of having a lawn or backyard where their pets can do their “thing.” Those living in condominiums, hotels and skyscrapers benefit mostly from litter boxes for cats but those who would like to have less hassle in cleaning is welcome to own one.
1. Automatic Litter Boxes Table Comparison
Most easy to use but expensive. These models are equipped with automatic combing mechanisms which sweeps clumps from the litter box and into a disposable bag container after your kitty is done using it. Some of the models available have sensors or pressure pads which allow the automatic litter box to know if the cat has already left the litter box. The following table is an update from previous automatic litter box comparison post.
