Why Trust Us

Trust is earned by showing our work. We publish the exact methods, instruments, and weights behind every score so you can see how a product performed and decide if it fits your cats and your space. Our behavior‑first approach ensures cat comfort and safety always come before convenience.

Expertise you can verify: Our team blends feline behavior expertise, hands‑on engineering, veterinary tech review, and real‑home testing. We measure odor with sensors, track litter scatter by weight, time every cleaning routine, and log decibels and vibrations for automatic units. Then we translate the data into clear, real‑world kit builds—like Low‑Tracking Small‑Space or Senior‑Friendly Access—so you can implement improvements step by step.

No hype, just outcomes: We prioritize solutions that deliver a neutral‑smelling home, minimal tracking, quiet operation, and consistent box use by every cat. When automation helps, we say so—and when a simple, well‑sized manual box beats a flashy device, we say that too. Our picks are transparent, repeatable, and validated in lived spaces.

Transparent incentives: Some links are affiliate links, which may earn us a commission at no extra cost to you. That support funds more testing. It does not change scores or recommendations, and we disclose our relationships and product procurement in each guide.

Your results matter: We encourage before/after measurements (odor trend lines, minutes‑to‑clean, tracking photos) and invite feedback. When reader reports uncover reliability issues or behavior conflicts, we re‑test and update. Our aim is simple: fewer messes, happier cats, and quieter homes—with proof you can see.
