Let’s be honest, no one enjoys that lingering litter box smell. That’s one of the biggest reasons cat parents fall in love with automatic litter boxes. When our team designed the CATLINK Scooper Open-X, we knew odor control would be essential. So we built in a smart three-step deodorizing system that keeps your home feeling light, clean, and fresh, no sprays, no cover-ups! We’ve also made a quick video to show you exactly how to maintain your Scooper Open-X step by step, it’s at the end!
1. Ozone Deodorization: Fresh Air, Naturally
The real culprits behind litter box odor are ammonia and thiols (those sulfur-based smells). Instead of masking the odor, ozone molecules break them down from the source, it’s perfectly safe for both humans and cats.
In the Scooper Open-X, we tucked a ozone device right inside the waste compartment. Whenever your cat finishes their business, the system automatically releases ozone to neutralize smells before they ever have a chance to escape.
2. A Sealed Waste Bin that Actually Works
Here’s something you’ll appreciate: the waste compartment can hold up to 15 days of waste for one cat, without letting odors creep into your living space. A raised edge design that locks everything in tight.
3. Smarter, Cleaner Litter Mat

A waste drawer designed so you never have to get your hands dirty.
If you’ve used other automatic litter boxes before, you know the real cleaning struggle isn’t the globe, it’s the litter mat. Many litter box attach it with screws, meaning you have to remove the entire globe just to wash it. Not fun.
The Open-X fixes that with two key upgrades:
Non-stick waterproof surface:
Made with fabric similar to high-performance outdoor gear, the mat feels smooth like a lotus leaf. It’s easy to clean, resists cat scratches, and repels sticky clumps. Just pull the little corner tab and remove it for a quick rinse.
Seamless umbrella-edge design:
Whether your cat pees right in the middle or along the edge, the umbrella-shaped border ensures that everything flows into the litter area, no leaks, no mess.

Daily cleaning is super easy and convenient.
Why Deep Cleaning Still Matters
Even with smart automation, a deep clean every now and then makes a big difference. Cats are just like us, no one enjoys using a dirty bathroom. If their litter box isn’t clean enough, they may start holding it in, which can lead to urinary issues.
We’ve created a step-by-step cleaning guide video for the Scooper Open-X to help you easily keep everything spotless. Just remember: never rinse the base with water. Always unplug it first, then wipe it down gently with a damp cloth.
