This innovation was launched in celebration of International Cat Day. The PoPoLitter features a hard-clumping, no-stick formula designed to reduce residue buildup in the waste tray during automated cleaning cycles, which helps maintain the mechanical efficiency of the [self-cleaning system](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/feniska-base) and makes waste removal easier for owners. The product also incorporates probiotic ingredients to [neutralize odor compounds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/honiture-pl01) at their source rather than merely masking them. Its low-dust, dust-screened blend aims to minimize airborne particles around the litter box and its sensors.
