PetPivot: AutoScooper Automatic Litter Boxes for Cats

PetPivot is an online store specializing in automatic litter boxes for cats and complementary products. Its catalog is organized around the AutoScooper line, with the AutoScooper 12 Lite and AutoScooper 11 models, as well as consumables and PoPoLitter litter. The company operates from the United States and sells in US dollars.

Models and Products in the Catalog

PetPivot's catalog includes the AutoScooper 12 Lite and AutoScooper 11 litter boxes, along with consumables and PoPoLitter litter, presented as a non-stick, fast-clumping litter. The store also offers bundles that combine AutoScooper litter boxes with PoPoLitter, with an indicated 20% discount on certain selections. The company states that over one million AutoScooper units have been sold.

Open Design and Safety System

AutoScooper litter boxes stand out for their open, spacious design, intended to facilitate entry and movement for the cat. The automatic cleaning system activates after each use and stops when the animal approaches or enters the unit. To this end, it incorporates a safety system with several sensors, including a touch pedal and infrared motion detection, which pause the cycle and resume it when the cat exits. The company calls this set the Safety System.

Maintenance and Waste Management

The waste drawer has a large capacity and is designed to reduce how often it needs to be emptied. In the AutoScooper 12 Lite model, the company recommends emptying it every five days and no later than seven, and more frequently in households with multiple cats. The interior can be cleaned with a damp cloth, and removable parts should be rinsed every few weeks. The unit disassembles easily for cleaning.

Multi-Cat Use and Adaptation

PetPivot states that AutoScooper is suitable for households with multiple cats thanks to its open design, which allows several animals to use the same litter box. The company recommends keeping the number of litter boxes in line with the cats' access and comfort needs, and checking the waste drawer more often when there are several. To ease the transition, it suggests placing the AutoScooper in the same spot as the traditional litter box and adding a little of the previous litter to the new one so the cat recognizes the scent. It notes that most cats adapt quickly.

Compatible Litter and Offline Operation

For the AutoScooper 12 Lite model, the company recommends using fine-grain clumping mineral litter or bentonite, such as PoPoLitter, and advises against crystal litter, non-clumping litter, and long-strip tofu litter. For other models, the corresponding compatibility guide should be followed. The litter box does not require a mobile app or Wi-Fi connection: it works simply by plugging it in.

Guides, Support, and Policies

The store offers quick setup, cat adaptation, and cleaning and maintenance guides, as well as a blog on feline care and an FAQ section. It has shipping, returns, and warranty policies, and a patent notice. For inquiries, the company provides the email address support@petpivot.com. It also has an affiliate program and a wholesale program, as well as a referral program.
