i have an attached garage, I'm considering putting the cat boxes in there and installing a cat door so the cats can get to it in their own. If I decide to do this I will no longer park in the garage so I don't have to worry about hitting them or them running outside.
Before I try this though I'm concerned that the garage will get too hot in the summer and too cold in the winter. I live in NC so the temp is usually in the 90's in the summer and very humid. In the winter the lows are usually down in the twenties or thirties but get down to the teens a few times over the winter.
If it gets too hot or cold wild that make the cats less likely to use the litter box and go somewhere else in the house? I imagine they wouldn't like the fee of cold litter in their paws, and the hungry in the summer might make the litter a little damp, not to mention the smell would be much worse.
Anyone ever put their litter boxes in an attached garage? How did it go?
