How many litter boxes do you have?

I currently have 2 for 2 cats but I am moving to a smaller apartment and am not sure if I will have the place for 2. I am going to put one in the bathroom but then I am stuck. It is only one bedroom and the bedroom is small. The washer/dryer are actually in the kitchen and I heard that you are not supposed to put the litter box near the washer as it can scare the cats.

Do you think one box will be suffucient if I clean it twice a day? They both use each others boxes now so I know they will go in the same box.

Thanks for the input!

I have a two bedroom apartment which is two floors and I have 9 litterboxes. One of my crazy little kitties is still spraying though despite all the darn boxes and my Bowie even sprayed on me yesterday. All over my lap (thanks a lot) hehe. But ya, I also have 7 cats plus one who lives in my bedroom.

I think it would be fine, but just be diligent about scooping

Do your two cats both use both litterboxes now?

If so, you can downsize to one, but scoop often! and change the litter more often than formerly (twice as often, I'd say.) Also if you can fit a larger box in the bathroom that might help.

We have two for two kittens. One upstairs and one downstairs.

Abby has two litterboxes. She used to have only one, but we increased it to two when we went on vacation, and she seems to prefer it.

I have 2 cats and 3 litterboxes.

I clean twice a day and wash them and totally change the litter once a week. Is that enough?

I also use Arm & Hammer Litter Deodorizer every day.

I have 2 cats and 1 litter box. They are fine with just one. It's a large, covered box and I scoop twice a day.

4 boxes, 3 cats. Any less and I can expect to wake up to poop on my floor every day (never pee, though, which is strange)

I have one litter box for my two cats, and I live in a small one bedroom apartment. It is quite a large one (a converted rubbermaid container), so I'm sure that makes a difference. I'm sure that as long as your scooping alot (I only do once a day and that seems ok for our cats) then they won't have a problem with it.

2 cats and 2 boxes. But I think they would be fine with one. Scoop daily (maybe morning and evening) and clean the box regularly.

For the seven years that I had two cats, I only had box and they were just fine with it. I now have four cats and three boxes and that's working well too.

we have 3 cats, 3 litterboxes and a 1-bedroom apartment. it works out pretty well. i scoop 2-3 times a day. when we have a petsitter though i have to leave and extra box. last time i didn't and the boxes were too full.

We're bringing Charlie home next week. So he'll have his own small pan while in the adjustment to the house stage. I'm not sure if I'll put it downstairs eventually with the other pan.

Guess I have to wait and see how Ling reacts and if they will share one big litter pan or not.

Thanks guys! I think it will be fine. I just tend to have anxiety about these things! I hate to "rock the boat" as they say!
They both use each box now so I will just get a larger box and scoop twice as much.

As far as a large, deep litterbox, I've had excellent luck with this one: http://www.petsmart.com/global/produ...N=2047564&Ne=2

We do both covered and uncovered here, and this is the only covered box I've had consistent luck with. I wouldn't go smaller than the "jumbo" size, especially if they're sharing

My boys are large cats at 12.5 and 15 pounds, and they'll use these boxes.

We have four cats and three litter boxes.
We use the largest size covered boxes, but we have to take the covers off.
Gracie and Lizzie will not use a box that has a lid on it, they'll sit in front of it and meow their heads off but they will not get in until the cover is off.

I have two for 3 kittens. The problem is Twinkie likes to use her box and the boys like to use their one box and her box. Twinkie is not very happy about it and always guarding her box and even if one of the boys uses it she cleans the box herself. I don't know how stop the boys from using her box but I am happy they us it. Both boys are litter mates so they share everything but Twinkie is a new kitten so she is territorial with her box. Once all the kittens are going to be free in the entire house I will have a box on every floor in the bathrooms, which will be total of 3 litter boxes. I think that should be sufficient unless the boys decide they don't want to share anymore.

I have 3 cats and 3 boxes. Two of the boxes are right by the washer and dryer and the cats aren't bothered by the machines at all, in fact those boxes get used the most. Their food and water are on top of the dryer. Sam loves to eat there and snooze a bit when the dryer is going, he likes the warmth.

I have 2 cats and 2 litterboxes
