Check what a litter box claims about safety

We read the manuals, product pages and FCC filings of automatic litter boxes sold in the US and log six safety protections, the minimum cat weight each one states and, where the FCC record names one, the company that filed it. We show what makers claim, not a safety verdict.

The database

Every value links to its source on the model page. Striped cells are still being checked against the manual.

Model pages have a "Check on Amazon" button. It is an affiliate link that can earn us a commission; it never changes a value or a safety layer. How we earn money.
