Best litter boxes for large cats, ranked by published specs
Ranking methodology
Ranked by manufacturer-published data only — maximum cat weight, waste drawer capacity, entry height — with models missing those figures ranked last. RobotMatchup has not physically tested these units and no position here reflects hands-on use.
For a big cat the deciding published figures are the rated maximum cat weight, the interior dimensions where the maker states them, and entry height, since a tall step deters heavy or older cats.
