The CATLINK Scooper Young proves you don't need to spend $500+ to get a reliable automatic litter box. At $349, it punches well above its weight class with app connectivity, solid odor control, and dependable daily performance.
Surprising Quality at a Budget Price
The Scooper Young handles cats between 3.5 and 22 pounds with a rotating sifting mechanism that separates waste efficiently. While it lacks the premium touches of the Litter-Robot 4 (UV sterilization, weight tracking), it nails the fundamentals: automatic cleaning, sealed waste management, and app alerts.
