Tired of scooping litter? Here are three of the best self-cleaning litter box deals as of March 1.


Being a pet owner has its ups and downs. Taking care of and disposing of kitty litter, for example, is one of the less glamorous activities many cat owners face daily. But without an owner to take care of the mess, there’d be litter, dust, and who knows what else scattered about. If only there were a way to automate this process… 

Enter the self-cleaning litter box. Automatic cat litter boxes are self-cleaning, come in multiple sizes, and are available at varying price points from $70 to $500. Here are some of our favorites on sale now:

Best deal overall 

Why we like it 

The PetSafe ScoopFree is an affordable, non-covered option for kitties who prefer a more traditional, flat box design. The way this litter box works is simple: The ScoopFree Premium Crystal Litter (which is 99% dust-free) absorbs urine and dehydrates solid waste, then it pushes the waste into a small tray located in the front of the box. Thanks to the plastic-lined disposable trays, cleanup is quick and easy too — just remove the tray and throw it away.

Runner-up 

Why we like it 

The LitterMaid single-cat self-cleaning litter box features an automatic scooping rake that’s engineered to keep the box fresh and clean for up to seven days. Thanks to its high walls and paw-cleaning ramp, you shouldn’t have to worry about litter scatter or dirty paws. Plus, it comes with a vacuum hose attachment to help you keep your kitty’s bathroom area spotless. Note: the LitterMaid single-cat self-cleaning litter box can only be used with the LitterMaid 3rd edition receptacle.

Best budget deal 

Why we like it 

The Omega Paw Roll 'n Clean self-cleaning litter box is easy to use and can hold cats up to 12 pounds. There’s no electricity required for this litter box; once your cat is done doing its business, just tilt the box on its side to enact the sifting process. The dirty litter will then fall into a removable tray. If your furry friend is turned off by the hood, this litter box comes with a detachable roof.
