Does anyone have any experience with self-cleaning cat litter boxes? I’m curious if any particular model of self-cleaning litter box is any good. We now have 4 cats and it would be nice to not have to clean litter boxes manually 1-2 times every day.

Do they separate pee/poop from litter well? Are cats afraid to use them? Do they stink more than regular litter boxes because pee/poop are in them for longer periods? Are they a hassle to clean? Do you have to buy propietary supplies (custom litter? special trays?)?

Thanks for your input.

      It’s special as in you have to use clumping litter. Dr. Elsey’s works the best in my experience.

      It does, but you don’t have to buy their litter, as long as the one you get does the same thing.

      No, not at all, not sure what EssentialCoffee means. It’s just any clumbing litter with a small grain to go through the sifter. I prefer clay.
