You read the safety warnings before you bought. The headlines about cheap auto boxes still sit in your head — and that is exactly why you have not pulled the trigger yet. The BeCat Guard carries two independent safety systems — weight sensors at the entry and infrared inside the drum. Either one stops the rotatio...

MORE DETAIL

What the spec sheet does not say.

Built to last, not for the showroom

The bearings are sealed. The motor is a 24 V brushless. The housing is high-impact ABS that will not yellow under sunlight. The pieces inside the unit are the ones that fail in a household over years of use — and they are the ones we picked first.

You will not find proprietary cartridges, locked accessories, or feature-gated firmware. The unit works the same on day 4,800 as it does on day one.

What is in the box
  • The unit, fully assembled
  • Power adapter, 100–240 V auto-switching
  • Carbon filter, pre-installed
  • One 13-gallon drawstring bag liner
  • Quick-start card (one side, no jargon)
  • A real US phone number on a real card
Litter, bags, and what to avoid

Use any clumping litter — clay, tofu, pine, walnut, crystal. Avoid non-clumping or silica beads that do not bind into clumps. Any 13-gallon drawstring trash bag will fit the drawer. No proprietary parts, no subscription, ever.

Shipping and delivery

Ships free in the US. Tracked. Your delivery estimate appears at checkout before payment. Customs and duties for international orders are not yet supported; we ship US only.

QUESTIONS WE GET ASKED

The answers, in plain English.

How big is this unit and where does it fit?

23 in wide, 26 in deep, 30 in tall. About the size of a small side cabinet. The drawer pulls forward, not up — so you do not need clearance above the unit.

Does it really work with any clumping litter?

Yes. Clay, tofu, pine, walnut, crystal — anything that clumps. We do not sell a proprietary one and we never will.

How loud is it?

24 dB at one meter. About the volume of a refrigerator humming in the next room. You will not hear it from the bedroom.

How long is the warranty really?

1 year included on every BeCat — parts and labor. Extend to 4 years for $100 at checkout. The phone number is on the homepage.

What if my cat will not use it?

Keep the old box running alongside for two to three weeks during transition. The refusal rate drops below 2%. If the cat still will not use it after 90 days, prepaid return label, full refund.

Is there a subscription or proprietary litter?

No. No subscription, ever, and it works with any standard clumping litter. Nothing proprietary.

What about kittens or very small cats?

The safety sensors register reliably from 7.5 lbs. Below that, we recommend a standard box until the kitten reaches weight.

How is this different from the other BeCat models?

The 01 is the flagship: largest drawer, app monitoring, multi-cat. The other eight boxes are real choices for households with different sizes, budgets, and accessibility needs. Every box ships with the same warranty.

WHAT THE MULTI-CAT DUAL SAFETY DOES

Twelve safety sensors. Two redundant layers.

pdp: close-up of cat face near box entrance

Two independent presence checks

Weight and radar, each can stop the cycle alone. If one fails, the other still holds the rotation.

pdp: close-up of paws on the clean entry platform

Anti-pinch + re-entry detect

If a cat enters mid-cycle the drum reverses immediately. No exceptions.

Cycle re-arms on each cat

Multi-cat households get a clean drum between every visit.

AND ALSO

Four small things that add up over the years.

pdp: hand pouring fresh litter into the drum

Runs quieter than your fridge

Twenty-four decibels at one meter. The motor is a sealed brushless. You will not hear it from the next room.

pdp: drawer pulled out showing clean sealed compartment

Tucks into a hallway corner

Compact footprint. The drawer pulls forward, not up. No clearance needed above the unit.

Set it up in fifteen minutes

Plug it in. Fill the drum. The unit calibrates itself on the first cycle. The app pairs in under a minute.

Saves you forty hours a year

Six minutes a day, every day, gone. Use the time for something else. Or do not. Either is fine.

IN THE APP

The app does what it should. Nothing more.

Six screens. No login required for the unit to work. No subscription, ever.

Weight, per cat

Tracks each cat by mass on the platform. Tracks each cat's weight over time so you can spot changes early.

Visits, by the hour

How often, how long, by which cat. Patterns visible before they are problems.

Notifications you choose

Drawer is at 80%. A cat has not used the box in 24 hours. You set the rules.

Drawer level, live

Live capacity reading. Skip the open-and-check. The app already knows.

Per-cat profiles

Each cat gets a profile. Visits, weight, behavior — separated by animal.

History, kept locally

Six months of history on the unit itself. No cloud lock-in. You can export it.

HOW THE MECHANISM WORKS

Six minutes. One quiet rotation. The clump drops into a sealed drawer.

Close-up of the drum, the slot, the drawer. The whole cycle, with nothing edited out. Twelve safety sensors check the cat is clear before any motion starts.

WATCH IT WORK

She walks up. Steps in. The home stays quiet.

A real cat, in a real home, using a real BeCat. No staged demo, no studio set. Just the box and the cat.
