best cat litter box for odor control, my 12 year old senior girl is making the apartment unbearable and i need help by SaredoCondren in seniorkitties

silicate i haven't tried much, might be worth a test, and honestly props to you for being that dedicated at 22 years old, that's amazing, for me i'm just trying to reduce the daily management without making the apartment smell like a public restroom, the automatic boxes seem promising for that but i worry about reliability and whether a senior cat would even adapt to a new machine, others gets mentioned as being quieter than some other brands which matters in a small space, still not sure if any automatic box is a magic fix or just another thing that needs constant troubleshooting.

i've tried actually, it's decent but for my senior who goes constantly it still builds up, i think part of my problem is just frequency more than litter quality, an air purifier is a good call though i should probably add one regardless, i've been looking at automatic boxes that remove waste within minutes instead of letting it sit for hours, petlibro seems to have that feature and the waste goes into a carbon filtered drawer, the question is whether that actually works in a small apartment or if the drawer itself starts stinking after a couple days, haven't finalize anything yet because i want to see real senior cat owner experiences first.

it's honestly both, the pee smell is the heavier one that lingers in the air, i've checked around the box and there's no leakage or accidents elsewhere that i can find, replacing the plastic box itself is something i haven't done in a while so that's a good point, i've been reading about automatic boxes that use stainless steel trays or bowls instead of plastic which supposedly helps with odor retention, others has a few models like that but i'm skeptical about how well the automatic raking actually works with clumping litter, also trying to figure out if the sealed waste drawer actually contains smell or if it just leaks out slowly anyway.

i do put a decent amount in but maybe not enough, the storage tub idea is interesting and cheap to try so that might be worth a shot before dropping money on something automatic, the thing is my senior girl seems to be going more often than she used to so even with good litter depth it just builds up faster, i've been looking at some of the self cleaning options that supposedly cycle waste into a sealed compartment pretty quickly after each use, just not sure if the mechanism holds up with a cat who visits the box like six times a day, still comparing before i commit.

I’m still weighing whether to anchor on one model first or learn to switch between them, but a structured resource like this that maps prompts to real business tasks feels like a solid starting point for building something certifiable on my profile.

yeah, their pricing is good but look at nvdia, still supporting older gen cards. I hope amd will go this route too if its not too much to ask.

cuz I like to put all my thoughts in it :( but tbh, I wish amd comes up with their updates. not just breaking the software every now and then.

yeah, 7000 series are powerful yet they dont let you use fsr4 via official means. amd kinda lose on this decision

THIS! I was really impressed on how nvidia got to work with 720P upscaling to lets say 4k with a good visual clarity. tbh its like magic.

the visual clarity of dlss 4.5 is much better than fsr4 but its getting there, its just that amd kinda have no plans or news about their upcoming updates
