I'm sure this is one problem everyone who owns a cat has encountered, but I'd just like to hear other's advice on the subject--how have you remedied/prevented the situation of litter scattered all over the floor? I'd appreciate hearing any ideas!

actually, you can make one of those out of the rubbermaid totes!Originally Posted by tuxedokitties
If your cat isn't very large, you might consider a Clevercat litter box - it's a bin with a hole in the lid for cats to jump through.
If it's sturdy enough, that would be a much more economical option if you want a covered box - great idea!Originally Posted by laureen227

What great ideas, tuxedokitties and laureen227 - I thought about "thinking outside of the box" (pun intendedOriginally Posted by tuxedokitties
Our solution is to use high-sided plastic tubs for litterboxes - the Sterilite brand, in the 18-gallon size. They're very inexpensive, and they're a good size for most average to large sized cats.

we brought an enclosed litter box as shinobi had the endearing (not) habit of positioning his little bottom over the side of the tray.Originally Posted by Eliot'sMom
I think an enclosed litter box or a high-sided one is a good first step, especially if your cat is a "litter kicker", like mine.
You don't know until you try. They are meant to be caught under the litter box, and are quite heavy actually. Not dragging material for the average cat. Ours stay put without a problem. Not that it matters to me whether anyone buys the product, but just wanted to answer that concern for the OP in case she's interested.Originally Posted by 709Juggalette
rapunzel47: As for the mats,I have seen them around,but didn't think they do much good.And knowing my cats,they would drag them away from the litter boxes anyway.
