WHAT’S NEW: LITTERBOXES AND ACCESSORIES

Radio Systems Corp. has introduced the PetSafe ScoopFree Ultra Self-Cleaning Litterbox in taupe and ScoopFree Anti-Tracking Litter Mat in taupe. The litterbox has a built-in health counter that tracks how many times a cat has used the box to help pet owners quickly identify any possible health problems, according to the company. The mat, made of spongy material that is soft and comfortable on a cat’s paws, helps reduce litter tracking.

Neater Pet Brands’ Neater Scooper XL Scoop-to-Bag Cat Litter Scoop is new, improved and recently patented. The design combines scooping and bagging into one system with an attached waste bin and trapdoor design. With a simple tilt of the wrist, the trapdoor opens to deposit waste directly into the waste bin. Users then tilt it down and the trapdoor closes, leaving them free to scoop again.

Petmate’s Retracting Litter Pan has a visor that retracts for quick scooping and features a removable hood for easy cleaning. The litterbox reduces litter scatter and deters dogs while providing privacy for cats.

There’s a lot more to the cat litter category than litter itself. Retailers can build a comprehensive cat litter accessories section with the latest introductions in litterboxes, scoops, mats, cleaning agents and more.

Preferred Merchandizing’s
Litter-Lifter Pellet-Scoop
is specifically designed
for use with pellet litters.

Its slots require minimal shaking to realign and release all pellets. It allows for faster, more efficient scooping, and the scoop works well with thick granular litters, too.

Rolf C. Hagen (USA) Corp.’s Catit Magic Blue air purifier absorbs and retains up to 80 percent of hazardous ammonia gasses and reduces cat pan odors. It soaks up foul odors like a sponge and is unscented, easy to use and nontoxic. Replacement cartridges are available.

The OurPet’s Co.’s OurPets SmartScoop Intelligent Litterbox offers cats a fresh litter area without traditional manual cleaning. It uses infrared technology to detect when a cat enters the box and engages the scoop mechanism 15 minutes after a cat exits. Its Bluetooth monitoring capabilities track a pet’s behavior and habits through the company’s SmartPetLink App.

Fetch...for Pets’ new Fresh Step line includes a variety of SKUs in the litterbox accessories category.

Products include Drawstring Litterbox Liners, a Disposable Litterbox, a Litter Trapper Keeper mat, a four-in-one Deluxe Cleanup Kit with a litter scooper, dust pan, broom and caddy, Litterbox Deodorizing Pods, Odor Eliminating Powder, Litterbox Attractant, Scented Litterbox Cleaning Spray and Litterbox Odor Eliminating Spray.
