PetSafe ScoopFree Clumping Self-Cleaning Litter Box

Automate from 6 months (no weight published)

Rather than a globe, this is a long, low tray with a rake, the ScoopFree crystal design rebuilt for ordinary clumping litter.

Best for: Cats that refuse enclosed boxes, in homes that want to keep their current litter

Days between emptying

The maker publishes no drawer volume, so the days cannot be worked out. Its own claim is up to 7 days for one cat.

Barely 7.8 inches tall, this looks like an ordinary litter pan until the two rakes move.

Best for: Cats that will only use something that looks like a normal pan

PetSafe ScoopFree Clumping Self-Cleaning Litter Box: what it gives up

  • No published cat weight range, bin volume or sensor type
  • No Wi-Fi, so no visit tracking
  • Weekly emptying is PetSafe's own estimate, shorter than the drawer-based models
  • A rake leaves more litter exposed to scatter than a drum does
  • 29 inches long, so it needs a deep spot despite the low height

Meowant MW-SC03: what it gives up

  • Meowant itself says to empty it every 2–3 days, daily in summer
  • Tofu litter is not supported
  • Silent on cat weight range and warranty length
  • Rakes leave the litter surface open to scatter
