Auto-Cleaning
Fully automated intelligent burying and cleaning of cat excrement, clean and sterile, freeing hands, and odor-free; cat owners no longer need to manually scoop cat litter to clean cat excrement.

High-definition looping video automatically records the number of times the cat uses the toilet, allowing cat owners to check the cat’s defecation status on the app at any time, understanding the cat’s health.

Sterilization and Deodorization
The product has a built-in fresh air system and UV sterilization function. The fresh air system adsorbs the odor generated by the cat after using the toilet, and UV sterilization kills bacteria in the litter box through ultraviolet light.

The product is equipped with an 8.5L litter storage compartment at the top. When the litter in the compartment is below the set level, it will automatically add an appropriate amount of cat litter to the compartment. (During the automatic litter addition, the product will seal the compartment to prevent dust pollution.)

One-Key Old Litter Disposal
By combining buttons, the product enables a one-key function to dump old cat litter, allowing it to be emptied into the waste compartment.
