#### Litter box
Set **Appliance** to **Litter box** for a self-cleaning litter box. The card is compact: it says what the box is doing (*Ready*, *Cleaning…*, *Emptying*, *Levelling*, *Sanitizing* or *Sleeping*) with **Clean** and the **Auto** clean switch beside it, and today's visits, the time in the box and your cat's weight in one line below. It fits in one row high, where it all goes on one line; tall cards add a ring on top. On narrow cards only **Clean** stays. The card never hides itself.

It fits in one row high, where it all goes on one line; tall cards add a ring on top. On narrow cards only **Clean** stays.
By default the card only shows when the waste bin is full or something is wrong: it then says *Bin full* or *Check the litter box*, with the alert in amber. For this it needs an alert (a sensor for a full bin or a fault, under **Alerts**) or a status that reports the fault. Untick **Only show when the bin is full or something is wrong** to see the card all the time. In the builder you always see it.
**Tuya** (for example the ZEDAR K1200): choose the box's *Status* sensor and the card fills in the rest of the same device: *Excretion times (day)* as the visits, *Excretion duration* as the time in the box, *Cat weight*, the *Manual clean* button and the *Auto clean* switch. Sensors for a full waste bin or a fault become alerts, shown in amber. Not every box offers every sensor, and names can differ; you can always pick the entities by hand. Other brands work too, as long as there is a status sensor.
