What to buy
Litter Boxes by Brand
Manual, semi-automatic and self-cleaning boxes, by the brand that makes them.
The real division is how waste leaves the box: you scoop it, a rake sweeps it into a tray, or the whole unit sifts and seals it. That one choice decides running cost, noise, and whether you can keep using your own litter.

Every brand
-
Litter-Robot
Whisker’s sifting globe — the box rotates after use, dropping clumps into a sealed drawer below.
-
PetSafe
The ScoopFree range rakes waste into a covered tray. Traditionally a crystal-litter system, though a clumping-compatible model has since joined it.
-
CatGenie
The only mainstream box that washes and dries itself. It plumbs into a cold water line and a drain, and runs on reusable granules rather than litter.
-
LitterMaid
One of the original automatic rake boxes, now a value option in the category.
-
Omega Paw
A manual self-cleaning box: roll the whole unit over and back, and an internal grille sifts clumps into a pull-out tray. No power, no consumables.
-
Catit
Hagen’s cat brand — hooded and top-entry manual pans, including the Jumbo hooded box.
-
Nature’s Miracle
Boxes built around the brand’s odour-control treatment, including the corner hooded pan.
-
Pet Zone
The Smart Scoop is semi-automatic: a sensor starts a timer when the cat leaves, then a rake sweeps waste into a carbon-filtered compartment.
-
So Phresh
Petco’s own-label boxes, including a drawstring-liner sifting pan.
