Question 1: I was planning on having a window perch with a bed on it, and underneath, very tidily, the litterbox and the food and water dishes. That way it wouldnt take up much room and the cat would have everything nearby.
But upon researching, I found that cats will refuse to eat if their food is near their litter box. Is this true?
Question 2: If it is true, how far away is considered "far enough"?
Question 3: Also, I wanted a lidless litterbox. I plan to clean out the poo and clumps daily, and change the entire box ever 2-4 weeks (I haven't decided yet) How bad would a litterboxes smell if I used this system?
Question 4: Since I didnt want a lidded litterbox, I was planning to hang a curtain down from the window perch in order to give the cat some privacy, but not take up that much space. Would this work?
NOTE: I have never had a cat in my life.
