It only took me 30 years to figure out that there is a better and easier way to do cat box duty!
I use scooping cat litter. The problem is that with scooping litter if you always keep the box full enough and scoop daily or more, you don't really have to wash the box every single week; just when the box itself looks dirty. This creates a problem. Where do you put the still clean litter from the box while you wash the box? I was dumping the still clean cat litter into a bag to reserve it while I washed the box, then dumping it back into the box. Usually I got litter all over the floor which meant vacuuming and mopping.
Two days ago it hit me!!! Invest in 2 extra cat boxes that I can keep in the utility closet until I need to wash the cat boxes. Then all I need to do is pour the litter from one box into the spare box, wash the dirty box and let it dry and put it into the utility closet for the next time I need to wash the boxes again.
2 litter boxes in use + 2 spare clean boxes = A happier Meowy!
I know I can be slow to catch onto things, but 30 years? Really?
