Automatic Cleaning Cycle

The S6 litter box automatically detects when your cat uses it. After a set delay (adjustable via the app or long press of the right button), the cleaning rake will sweep waste into the enclosed collection bucket. The rake uses a panning motion to minimize staining of the interior.

The device operates quietly and effectively manages odors, contributing to a fresh home environment.
