Yes. However, SmartScale™ technology to record cat weight is most accurate on a firm surface, not carpeting. If you plan to use Litter-Robot 4 on carpet that’s 3mm+ thick or on uneven flooring, you can improve the accuracy of SmartScale™ weight readings by purchasing our specially designed Carpet Tray that sits between the unit and the floor. The carpet tray is not required for Litter-Robot 4 to function.
Litter-Robot 4 requires a 2.4 GHz WiFi signal and IPv4 or IPv6 addressing (5 GHz band not supported). To connect to a shared network (apartment complexes, college dorms, etc.) provide your unit’s MAC address shown on the QR code sticker to the shared network administrator.

Yes, you can purchase the Litter-Robot 4 Ramp in black or white. The Litter-Robot 4 footprint measures 22″W x 38″D with the ramp installed. Without the ramp, it is 22″W x 27″D.
Yes, you can use any bag that fits in the waste drawer. However, please note that waste level readings may be inaccurate when using a dark bag, especially when the drawer is empty. As clumps start to collect in the drawer, the readings will become more accurate. For the most precise waste drawer readings and a seamless experience, we highly recommend using Litter-Robot Waste Drawer Liners.
