Meowant MW-SC02

Automate from ~3.3 lb / ~4 monthsAnti-pinch protectionRated to 22 lb — short of the heaviest large breeds

At 19.3 inches square, the SC02 takes up less floor than almost anything else here while still offering a 75-litre drum. It is rated for cats from 3.3 to 22 lb and over 4 months, and it accepts tofu and mixed litters as long as the pieces are under about 15 mm. The waste bin is 3.6 litres, the smallest published in the catalog, and Meowant prints two entry heights on one page: 6.8 inches in the description and 6.1 in the spec table. It is sold on two of Meowant's own listings, $229.99 on the White page linked here and $399.99 on the other.

Kittens and small cats

Meowant says the sensor detects cats from 3.3 lb and sets a minimum age of 4 months. At the usual rate of about a pound a month, that means leaving automatic cleaning off until roughly 4 months. Below the threshold, a kitten may not register at all, and the box could start a cycle with it inside.

Detection: weight. The maker states anti-pinch protection on the moving part, by sensor or by design.
