Spherical Litter Boxes

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Pluto Electronics' Circle Zero is a Smart, Self-Cleaning Litter Box

— April 28, 2020 — Lifestyle
Circle Zero by Pluto Electronics is a smart, self-cleaning litter box that operates in a way that's safe, quiet and protects homes from odors. The designer litter box boasts an automatic cleaning process and patented scooping technology that helps to minimize maintenance and cleanup time.

The button-free litter box system is ready to use right after it's been plugged in, and its spherical design is not just aesthetically pleasing but functional too, as it rakes and scoops in a circular motion. Pluto Electronics' patented scoops are tested last up to 14,600 cleaning cycles—or about four years. The modern and low-maintenance litter box accommodates cats up to 15 lbs and offers a sanitary design with an indicator to indicate when the waste bin is full.
