UPDATED! Which Catlink Litter Box Is Right for Your Cat?

Which Catlink litter box is right for you?

What Catlink Young, Luxury Pro and Pro Ultra Litter Boxes Share

Kia ora, cat whānau!

If you’re considering the Catlink Series of automatic litter boxes for your furry mate, you might find they all look pretty similar at first glance. Picking the right one can feel a bit overwhelming when you just want the best for your purring pal.

That’s why we’ve broken down the differences between the Scooper Young, Luxury Pro and Pro Ultra to help you find the perfect match for your cat’s needs.

Before we dive into the differences, here’s what you get across the board:

Weight Range: Suitable for cats from 1.5kg to 10kg (3.3lb–22lb).
Hot tip: If your kitten is still a wee one, use manual mode until they’re big enough for the smart features.

Roomy Design: A 65L globe gives most cats ample space to do their business and cover it up comfortably.

Large Waste Bin: The 13L waste compartment can store up to two weeks’ worth of litter waste for one cat, with an activated carbon filter to keep smells at bay.

Extra Odour Protection: For even fresher air, add the Odour Eliminator for All Catlink Cat Litter Boxes.

Install the Odour Eliminator on the Scooper’s Waste Bin for best results.

Now, let’s explore the differences to help you choose the ideal model for your feline friend.

1. Simple & Dependable – Scooper Young

Best for: Cat owners who want hassle-free scooping without the techy bells and whistles.

This is the only non-connected model in the Series. No health tracking or app notifications here, but if you’re after an automatic self-cleaning litter box that takes care of the mucky stuff, the Young is a reliable pick. Just empty the waste bin when it’s full, and you’re sorted.

2. Smart Monitoring and Top Comfort – Scooper Luxury Pro

Best for: Multi-cat homes and owners keen on keeping tabs on their cat’s health.

This model steps things up with smart features. The Luxury Pro connects to the Catlink app, letting you:

  • Identify which cat is using the box (thanks to built-in weight sensors).
  • Keep an eye on litter box habits and get alerts if anything seems off.
  • Manage multiple cats using one box, no guesswork needed.
  • A gentle nightlight helps older or visually impaired cats find their way in the dark. (We all need a bit of help sometimes, right?)
  • Keeps the litter box environment comfy for even the fussiest felines.

If your cat loves the finer things or you’re a fan of cutting-edge pet tech, this one’s a champ. 

3. The Ultimate Choice – Scooper Pro Ultra

Best for: Senior cats, cats with health issues, or super-attentive cat owners.

This is Catlink's top-of-the-line model, inspired by real user feedback! One customer had cats with nearly identical weights, making it tricky to tell them apart. Their solution? Adding a camera to the litter box. We took that idea and ran with it. The Pro Ultra includes:

  • All the Luxury Pro features (app tracking, nightlight, temp/humidity sensors).
  • A built-in camera for live viewing or playback of your cat’s bathroom habits.

Perfect for: Cats with urinary issues, older cats, or homes where weight sensors alone aren’t enough to tell cats apart.

No matter which you choose, your cat (and your nose) will be stoked.
