This is what my cat Coco does when I forget to put toilet paper away
I think that the asterisk marks your choice in the survey.Hey everyone,
I realize this an old thread but since I just took the survey, I have a question. Why does Living Room have an asterisk next to it? The LR seems to be the second highest vote for location, so therefore I wonder. As a apartment dweller with limited space, I am forced to have it there, otherwise I would place it elsewhere. Is that what the asterisk means? LOL.
I don't use these so I do not know, @mrsgreenjeans, but you may want to visit one of my favorite sites for all things "cat" at hauspanther.com, where there are many links to companies that make these cabinets in many different styles. Here's a more direct link to what you want to look at: Gear Guide • hauspanther. I would not put a litterbox in a closet, but that's my personal preference. I wouldn't put one in the living room, dining room or kitchen, either, but again, that's just my preference. Mine are in bathrooms, bedrooms, and laundry room.Hi everyone! I realize this thread is old, but I ask a question specific to those of you who use a cabinet to house your litter boxes. I see that most cabinets have vent holes so our kitties can still breathe while they are in their stirring up litter dust and I need to know how well these cabinets actually hold down that dust OUTSIDe of the cabinet. I need to move one of our litter boxes into our Master Bedroom Closet, and want to know just what to expect when it comes to our clothes hanging in there . right now that litter box is in our tub, which we would like to be able to use every now and then, but the litter dust accumulates very quickly on the bathroom counters. I know some of thoes pieces of furniture actually have filters you can place over the ventilation holes, which is good for us humans, but does that keep the dust low INSIDE the box so the cats can breath well when doing their business?
Additionally, does anyone have one that has a slide out tray for easy access to scooping it out? Us older folks don't bend down as easily as some, and when scooping at least twice daily, it can be a problem. Hubby already has had four back surgeries, and he insists on cleaning their box
Thank you so much (anyone who responds) BTW, I did find ONE box with a true slide out shelf, but it costs a fortune. That's because it's custom made (and it doesn't have any vent holes . Of course I love my cats dearly, but I'd rather spend my hard earned money on their food rather than a piece of furniture they could care less about.
Netflix and poop!I live in a small 700 square foot condo. I used to have two cats but I had to put my sweet boy to sleep 6 weeks ago. So I only have one cat now but I have 2 litterboxes.
My bathroom is so small, I would not be able to fit a box in there. And I really, REALLY do not like having litterboxes in my bedroom. So I keep the two in my living room & kitchen.

And the kitchen litterbox is inside of an unused, lower kitchen cabinet. I leave one door open so she can get in there:

I use DR.ELSEYS RESPIRATORY RELIEF..CLUMPING CAT LITTER ITS LIKE?$16 for a 20 lb box..it has a tad bit of dust..but NOT much..Cause all the really dusty litters were making me n my cat sniffle...I GET IT ON CCHEWY.COM..CAUSE WHEN I SWEEP UP THE LITTER OG THE BATHROOM FLOOR..ITS NOT ANY DUST...JUST PIECES OF LITTER...WORKS FOR ME N MY BOY SNOWBALLThanks everyone who responded so far. I would love to use a "no dust" litter, but so far haven't found one except for the wood chip ones or yesterday's news, and the cats won't use those, so they won't work . I was so excited when I discovered Obikat Litter, and they said to put just about 1/2 inch on top of your existing litter to get them enticed, but once they use it and dig around, that's it, it's mixed in and then the 99% dust free litter is stirred up and in the air, If I just keep adding a 1/2 in layer then they never seemed to get used to it, AND the litter height just kept getting higher and higher in the box. So, Dr. Elsy's really works? I'm going to pick some up today to test it out.
DH told me last night he's going to hire a cabinet maker to make a cabinet to our specific details. NO MDF bottom, and it will for certain have a pull out drawer-type bottom to easily slide out their rubbermaid box.
For the last 8 years I have been buying SUPER MIX Long Lasting Odor Control Clumping Cat Litter, imported from Canada. Excellent results, absolutely no odor. It doesn't stick to the paws, there is no litter spilled around the litter box.View attachment 226147
