- Do you rank litter boxes with star scores?
- No. When a guide is published, it will talk through tradeoffs in plain language. We do not invent ratings to look finished.
- Will this cover automatic boxes and regular litter?
- Yes. The litter desk covers everyday litter and boxes, and there’s a dedicated guide for automatic litter boxes when you want the deeper tradeoffs.
