The PETKIT PuraMax 2 is a self-cleaning litter box with a rotating drum. After your cat leaves, the drum turns, sifts out clumps from regular clumping litter and drops them into a 7 L bin at the side.
Who it suits
Small and medium adult cats, older cats that need a low step in, and homes that want app tracking without switching litter. Very large cats and carpeted rooms are a weaker match.
Key facts
- Cats 6 months and older, 3.3 to 22 lbs (PETKIT)
- Works with most clumping clay, tofu and corn litters (PETKIT)
- 7 L bin, up to 15 days for one cat (PETKIT)
- Safety sensors stop the drum if a cat steps in, and the drum always leaves an exit (PETKIT)
- 24.4 x 21.2 x 21.7 in, 8.03 in entry height, 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi (PETKIT)
What reviewers say
Cats.com tested it for weeks with seven senior cats. The leak proof liner and odor control held up well and daily sifting was fine, but the reviewer called the magnetic litter remover the weakest deep clean of any automatic box she had tried, and her cats over about 10 lbs avoided it.
Pros and cons
- Pro: Uses common clumping litters
- Pro: Low entry
- Pro: Per cat weight and visit tracking
- Con: Fiddly full litter changes
- Con: Tight for big cats
- Con: Bags and odor add ons are an ongoing cost
Cautions
- Not for kittens under 6 months or cats under 3.3 lbs.
- Keep a regular box out during the switch.
- Call your vet if the app shows a cat straining, visiting much more often or losing weight.
