HOW THE TRIXIE BERTO SIFTING TRAY WORKS

The Trixie Berto litter tray consists of:

  • Top frame that connects to the tray with easy click clasps
  • 2 trays (black and blue)
  • One sifting pan

The Official Method

Tray 1 (black) and Tray 2 (blue) are stack-able and both are part of the bottom. The sifting tray goes in the middle of the tray 1 (black) and the tray 2 (blue). The top frame connects the 2 stack-able trays and sifting tray together as a whole. To start using the litter box simply pour litter into the tray 1 (black).

To clean the Trixie Berto you need to unclick the crasps and lift the top frame. Then you lift the tray 1 (black) and pour the litter into the sifting pan. Once the sifting pan has all the clumps on the surface, you dispose them. Then you put the sifting pan on top of the tray 2 (blue) and place the tray 1 (black) at the bottom. The Trixie Berto is ready for another use. Note: The colors on the below sequence of pictures belong to a Berto litter box that has already been cleaned. The above description is when you need to clean the unit for the first time, the blue tray is located at the bottom.

An Alternative Method

There is an alternative method that you may find simpler. The sifting tray goes on top of tray 1 (black) and the tray 2 (blue) goes stacked at the bottom. When start using the Trixie Berto you need to pour litter into the tray 1 (black) covering the sifting pan completely.

To clean the litter box you need un-click the clasps and lift the top frame. Lift tray 1 (black) and put it aside, separating from the bottom tray 2 (blue). Grab the sifting tray and start sifting the litter, separating the clumps from the litter. When the sifting tray has only clumps on the surface you can dispose the waste. All the sifted litter is sitting in tray 1 (black). Place the sifting pan on top of tray 2 (blue) and pour the sifted litter into it. Then place tray 1 (black) at the bottom, put the top frame on top, connecting the clips and the Trixie Berto is ready for another use.

ALTERNATIVE METHOD HOW TO CLEAN THE TRIXIE BERTO

PROS

  • Solid construction, good quality of plastic
  • An economic solution to quicken the scooping task
  • It facilitates the litter box’s cleaning without the need of electricity
  • Frame around the top keeps litter inside and prevents urine leakage
  • It saves on litter
  • It saves time when scooping the litter box, sifting all the clumps at once
  • High walls to keep litter inside

CONS

  • You need more space to separate trays and do the sifting process.
  • Could be hard for some people to lift the tray to start sifting
  • If you have a diabetic cat that urinates a lot, some urine could leak into the bottom tray if not using the right litter or amount of litter.

TIPS

  • Use a fine, slick litter, like Arm & Hammer slide. This will ensure that when you are sifting the litter, it won’t get stuck in the sifting pan. It also allow to form hard clumps that won’t break down.
  • Before dumping the clumps make sure to corner them to avoid spills.
  • Easier to place a wide bag next the the Trixie Berto to dispose the clumps right away (as shown in the video).
  • If you use the litter box for two cats, make sure to pour a fair amount of litter to avoid leakage in the bottom tray.

CONCLUSION

Trixie Berto sifting cat litter tray is a well constructed, solid litter box with a quick and effective system to clean your cat’s litter in less time. If you don’t have time for cleaning your cat’s litter box and don’t want to spend money on an automatic litter box, the Trixie Berto is a good alternative. Also, if you have body aches that make it difficult for you to clean the litter box daily, this is a good option because, even though it doesn’t avoid you to lean over or squat, it reduces the time when doing it.

√ I recommend Trixie Berto sifting litter tray:

  • For kittens and cats under 15 lbs
  • 2 cats under 13 lbs
  • For cat owners that want the scooping to be a quicker process

x Maybe this sifting litter box is not suitable:

  • For large cats
  • Cats that spray high
  • Diabetic cats
  • For people with arthritis or backaches.
