I could be way off, but my main concern would be this. Cats kinda like their territory to smell like them. Cedar has a strong odor that might mask the cats’ scent and annoy them, causing them not to want to use the box. Just a thought.I have a beautiful cedar trunk. Will my cats use it as a litter box if I cut holes and make it into a proper box for them? It is cedar.
Wait, you want your cats to destroy your beautiful cedar trunk?! Why?I have a beautiful cedar trunk. Will my cats use it as a litter box if I cut holes and make it into a proper box for them? It is cedar.
Would fashioning it into a cat-house work, with beds, toys, etc? It sounds like they already like it.Thank you all. The trunk is pretty but there is already a hole in the bottom of it large enough to set a litter tray inside. Oh my no, I would not fill it with liter! I could trim out where the inward cuts are already to assist in lifting the top to allow some light in and a little air flow.
Currently my boys sit on it and I have left the lid open. They will sit inside. I have kept their two liter boxes out, I'm not removing them. Trunks are gorgeous and I have had special ones, but since there is a large hole in the floor of it, I thought I'd give it a try.
