Those of you who keep a cat in your house or apartment know that the cat litter problem is serious enough to keep your eyes open. Let's work together to choose a toilet that is easy for you to clean and that your pet will like.
It is necessary
- - Cat litter box;
- - Cat litter.
Instructions
Step 1
Choose a location for your litter box. The shape of the purchased item depends on it - toilets for cats are rectangular, oval or angular. In order for the toilet to fit perfectly into the place designated for it, you must also know the parameters of this place.
The simplest litter box is a litter box with a top grate to keep the surface dry. Cats quickly get used to this toilet. The tray should be large enough so that the animal does not feel cramped.
Step 2
Such a toilet, if you do not use litter, will have to be cleaned after each cat visit. The bulk filler tray will be deeper, since cats scatter the contents when burying, so the sides should be quite high. Such a toilet is not suitable for a kitten - it will be difficult for him to climb into the tray and he may find a more comfortable place somewhere in the corner or under the sofa.
For an adult cat, the litter should be enough to "dig in", if you find peeled wallpaper or linoleum around the tray, then this means that the cat does not have enough material to dig.
Step 3
When your kitten grows up, then get him a closed-type cat toilet, in the form of a house. It is difficult for small kittens to cope with a high nut and a house door. This toilet is well suited for cats that love solitude and do not relieve themselves in full view of everyone.
Another plus of such a toilet is that when buried, the filler does not crumble around and, in the future, throughout the apartment. Also excluded is a "slip" past the tray. The house looks much better than the tray, but for some reason it is more difficult to accustom the animal to use it for the toilet.
Step 4
The insidiousness of the toilet-house is that its contents are hidden "out of sight" and therefore they often forget to clean it!
Bio cat litter boxes look the same as cat litter boxes but come with additional features. The charcoal filter prevents the spread of unpleasant odors throughout the apartment, and absorbent napkins also serve this purpose.
Step 5
Additionally, such cat litter boxes can be equipped with bridges with an absorbent layer that cleans the legs of the animal, automatic cleaning of excrement and replacement of litter. If you are ready to part with a tidy sum, then get a model that can function without your participation for several weeks!
