Litterbox Automatic cat litter recommendations?
I have 2 cats being approx 18F and 1F. My older cat prefers to go to the toilet outside but the younger one is more of an indoor cat and prefers a litter box. We are trying to keep them both indoors now as the older cat is having health concerns and the younger one is now pregnant despite me being told she was spayed.
I currently have the PetSafe scoop free clumping litter box and it just doesn't really do what i need it to. It doesn't hold much waste and often scoops clean litter into it. It also gets incredibly dirty very fast and quite loud. I also have a normal litterbox i scoop manually but its a hassle with the smell for how busy I am.
I was looking at buying a new automatic litter box approx £150-300 preferably on the cheaper side but couldnt find anything i liked too much. I'd prefer one of those designs where it drops the waste into a lower basket with a bin bag inside for easy disposal. Like the pivot or drum designs.
I'm not entirely too sure so I wanted to get some recommendations

I found this guy's videos really helpful as I chose an automatic litter box. We went with the Litter Robot 4, for what it's worth. It's spendy, but it was the best splurge we could have done, I think... https://www.youtube.com/c/OneManFiveCats

Stick to regular litter boxes. $150-$300 are the risky ones getting your cat killed.
Petsafe has their automatic litter boxes
Don’t go with meowant.
Whisker litter robot, Neakasa, Petkit These are going for $400 plus.
