Meowant
Meowant's 2026 open-top model pairs a 72-litre open structure with an 11.9-litre drawer, much larger than its enclosed drums get. Six infrared sensors and motor-stall protection guard the rotation, and the open design means there is no opening to close. Its page leaves out a maximum cat weight and a litter list.

Best for: Cats that avoid enclosed boxes, in a home that wants a big drawer
Meowant says the sensor detects cats from 3.3 lb. 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: infrared / radar. The maker states anti-pinch protection on the moving part, by sensor or by design.
How minimum weights work, and what to do below them11.9 L ÷ (cats × 0.7 L a day). The maker claims up to 15 days for one cat, within reach of the arithmetic. Where 0.7 L comes from.
The two lists above are drawn from the maker’s own pages, manuals and prices, not from owner reports. Where owner discussion has been read it appears in its own section below, so the two are never mistaken for each other.
