The Zen Litter Box

Some Things To Keep In Mind:
~ Cats have a better sense
of smell than we do.
~ Cats are finicky about cleanliness.
A clean litter box is one that will be used.
Multiple Cats:
~ Need multiple litter boxes. Have one more box than you have cats. (2 cats = 3 boxes, etc.)
~ Keep the litter boxes in different areas of the house.
~ Scoop more than twice a day for multiple cat boxes. Use gallon baggies, seal, and then throw out at the end of the day.
The Box:
~ Ever use a “Porta Potty”? That’s what a
traditional litter box smells like. Yuk! Lids off!!
~ Try plastic storage boxes with flat bottoms and high sides. They are sized better for a cat.
~ Empty the box totally at least once a month and clean with a gentle non ammonia cleaner.
Litter:
Whatever your cat likes is the best of course. Try something other than clay though. Better for your cat’s lungs and better for the environment.
