Introduction to Automatic Litter Boxes

Automatic litter boxes are a convenient and hygienic way to keep your cat's litter box clean. The Petkit PuraMax 2 and Petkit Purobot Ultra are two examples of such products, offering advanced features such as app monitoring, odor control, and AI technology to track cat health.

The Petkit PuraMax 2 has a 76-liter fill space and a nearly 8-inch front hole opening. It uses a grate system to separate waste from clean litter and has triple odor control, including a sealed waste bin, an odor eliminator attachment, and a smart deodorizing spray. The litter box also comes with an app that allows owners to monitor their cat's usage and receive notifications when the litter needs to be refilled.

Petkit Purobot Ultra Features

The Petkit Purobot Ultra uses a camera and AI technology to monitor litter box usage and track cat health. It has a large horizontal footprint and a front-facing opening that rotates on an X-axis, staying open during cleaning. The camera on the arm in front of the opening swivels and follows the cat when it senses motion, recording short clips of each use. The app logs and monitors usage, including the number of times used and average duration.

While both litter boxes have their advantages, they also have some drawbacks. The Petkit PuraMax 2 lacks sensors to detect low litter levels, and the app can be cluttered with ads. The Petkit Purobot Ultra's camera arm can make it difficult for cats to enter the litter box, and refilling litter can be a challenge.
