Let’s talk about about the three major types of litter boxes for your kitty and discuss the pros and cons.
First, we’ve got disposable litter boxes. If you are among the pet lovers who don’t like to mess with ugly smells and feces, definitely get one of these types of toilet. It’s also a great idea if you’ve got kids around and you desire the utmost hygiene. After a while, this type of cat litter box is supposed to be thrown away. That’s because a cat’s urin smells really bad and after all a disposable toilet wasn’t designed with longevity in mind. Most of these products were made from recyclable paper or cardboard. Unfortunately, though you are going to pay a high price for this luxury. I have seen disposable toilets (usually sold in packs of 3-4) going for $10.
This leads me to the more economical and widespread type of cat litter box which is basically a plastic box with rectangular dimensions. To make them more visually appealing, you can pick a nice color. The bottom must be lined with paper (old newspapers usually do the job) or specialized material. Litter will be poured into on top of it. But this is not quite the perfect solution as your cat can make the surrounding area on your floor dirty and the bad smell can not be completely absorbed.
So we arrive at the premium class and these are truly the best cat litter boxes I am familiar with. Consider a covered litter box for your cat. While being similar to the aforementioned open cat litter box in terms of design, a covered box can provide the ultimate absorption of smell. On top of that, your cat cannot spread litter which means less cleaning up. Your cat may also feel safer when he or she has a house of their own. But this convenience comes with the disadvantag of size. It’s really hard to hide a huge litter box.
