CATLINK automatic litter tray deodoriser: how to choose an effective, long-lasting refill

A CATLINK automatic litter tray makes cleaning much easier, but it does not always eliminate odours between cycles. Choosing a CATLINK automatic litter tray deodoriser therefore deserves some attention: check compatibility with your model, how long it lasts, how it is secured and any usage precautions.

Owners of the Scooper SE, also known as Baymax, and the C70 often find themselves choosing between products with very similar descriptions. Here are the key points to check so you can avoid ordering an incompatible refill or one that is awkward to install and use every day.

Common pitfalls before buying

1. Do not confuse universal compatibility with genuine compatibility

A deodoriser designed for the CATLINK Scooper SE (Baymax) compartment will not necessarily work with a C70. The shape of the housing, the position provided and the activation method may vary from one model to another.

Some C70 refills, on the other hand, are compatible with several CATLINK litter trays. However, installing them may require adhesive to be placed inside the waste compartment. It is therefore better to check the technical specifications carefully rather than relying on the product’s appearance.

2. Do not blindly rely on the stated lifespan

A claimed lifespan of 30, 45 or 60 days depends on several factors: the number of cats, frequency of use, ventilation in your home, room temperature and the capacity of the waste tray. A three-pack of deodorising refills means you can order less frequently, but each unit should be replaced according to its actual effectiveness.

3. Do not assume that an odour neutraliser removes the need for maintenance

An odour absorber for litter trays only works in the area where it is installed. It does not replace regularly emptying the waste drawer, cleaning surfaces or renewing clumping litter. A fragranced product may also temporarily mask an odour without tackling its source. So check what the product is designed to do: absorb odours, neutralise them or simply diffuse fragrance.

Key criteria to check

Compatibility and installation

To choose a CATLINK Baymax deodoriser, look specifically for confirmation that it is compatible with the Scooper SE. The Catlink Deodoriser for Baymax White measures 120 × 100 × 39 mm and fits into the designated compartment. It is not refillable, so the entire housing must be replaced.

With a C70, you may come across two types of product:

  • a refill supplied with its holder, which is secured inside the compartment using an adhesive strip;
  • a refill only, for use when the holder is already in place.

Before removing the protective film or securing the product, make sure the compartment is clean and completely dry.

Technology and materials

Depending on the model, refills may combine gel, activated charcoal, absorbent polymers or non-woven fabric. These materials do not all work in the same way:

  • deodorising gel gradually releases neutralising agents;
  • activated charcoal is generally presented as a material capable of absorbing odours;
  • the adhesive holder makes installation easier, but must remain out of the cat’s direct reach.

These details describe the product’s design and do not constitute any medical or health guarantee. Avoid contact with the animal’s mouth, eyes or skin, and follow the instructions on the packaging.

Replacement frequency and running cost

The Baymax White is stated to last for up to 60 days per unit under normal conditions. C70 refills are generally designed to last 30 to 45 days per cube, depending on usage intensity. When comparing offers, it is better to calculate the monthly cost rather than looking only at the pack price:

monthly cost = pack price ÷ estimated number of months of use

A three-refill pack is convenient for planning replacements. However, a product sold individually may be preferable for a first installation or for checking compatibility with your model.

Installation and maintenance: best practice

  1. Read your CATLINK litter tray manual and locate the designated compartment.
  2. Check the condition of the packaging before opening it.
  3. Install the refill with dry hands, in a clean, dry compartment.
  4. Do not pierce the housing or attempt to open non-refillable gel.
  5. Store unopened refills in a cool, dry place away from sunlight.
  6. Replace the product as soon as its odour-control effectiveness decreases, even if its theoretical lifespan has not been reached.
  7. Dispose of used refills in accordance with local guidelines. If leakage occurs, avoid direct contact and stop using the product.

Frequently asked questions

Which CATLINK deodorising refill should you choose for a C70?

Choose a refill explicitly stated to be compatible with CATLINK litter trays and check whether the holder is supplied. The C70 model with holder is particularly suitable for a first installation. If you already have the holder, the three-pack of refills sold separately will help you avoid unnecessary accessories.

How long does a CATLINK automatic litter tray deodoriser last?

It depends entirely on usage. The model designed for Baymax is stated to last for up to 60 days per unit under normal conditions. C70 refills are generally rated to last around 30 to 45 days per cube. If you have several cats, you may need to replace them more frequently.

Is a deodoriser enough to eliminate odours?

It helps reduce odours, but does not replace routine maintenance. Empty the waste tray regularly, clean soiled areas and check the litter level. A persistent odour may also indicate that the drawer is full, a seal is dirty or the refill is reaching the end of its life.
