Reading through all these automatic cat litter box reviews... and now I’m more confused than before 😅

So I thought getting an automatic litter box would make my life easier. Then I started reading automatic cat litter box reviews and fell down a rabbit hole of opinions — some people call it life-changing, others say it’s just “expensive drama.”

My cat, Bean, is the kind who watches the box work like it’s an alien invasion. He literally waits beside it like a security guard. Does anyone else’s cat do that??

Anyway, I just want less scooping, not an engineering degree.

What actually matters most — odor control, size, or noise level?
