The Streamlined Litter-Robot EVO

For pet parents with smaller cats or cozier homes, the EVO is Whisker’s most compact model yet. It has the same automated cleaning and odor-control systems, but with a lighter frame and smaller footprint (20.6” x 24.3”). It’s perfect for 1–2 cats up to 19 lbs, offering all the essentials without the extra bulk — or price tag.

Meet Whisker+: Smarter Cat Insights Than Ever

Launching alongside the new models is Whisker+, an optional subscription that supercharges your Litter-Robot experience. For $7.99/month (or $79.90/year), Whisker+ adds premium features such as:

✅ Multi-cat identification
✅ Detailed behavior and bathroom habit reports
✅ Long-term trends and deep insights
✅ Cross-device tracking across all Whisker products
✅ AI-driven data analysis and alerts

In short, it’s the difference between knowing your cat uses the litter box — and understanding how their habits reflect their overall health.

The Future of Whisker

The new models mark Whisker’s 25th year and over 2 million Litter-Robots sold worldwide — a milestone that solidifies its place as the #1 self-cleaning litter box brand.

Each unit is designed, manufactured, and assembled in the USA, and every Litter-Robot includes a 1-year warranty (extendable to 3 years) plus a 90-day in-home trial.

As part of the rebrand, Whisker is also launching Whisker.com, the new home for Litter-Robot, Feeder-Robot, and other innovations shaping the future of connected pet care.

Final Thoughts

The Litter-Robot 5 family isn’t just about less scooping — it’s about smarter, more intuitive cat care. Whether you want streamlined simplicity (EVO), smarter automation (5), or AI-powered insights (5 Pro), Whisker has designed a model to fit your lifestyle.
