Kitty Litter Box Furniture

Kitty litter box furniture is the perfect way to conceal the smell of your cat’s litter box and prevent it from becoming an eyesore in your home. Luckily, keeping the inside of the litter box furniture clean is a simple task that requires a small time commitment each week.

The benefit of litter box furniture is that your cat isn’t directly defecating or urinating on that piece, but rather inside a plastic litter box stored within the furniture. This means that while you still need to clean your cat’s litter box daily by scooping out the debris, you can do a general maintenance clean on the furniture piece itself less frequently.

When you’re ready to clean the unit, open it up and remove the plastic litter tray from inside. Using a dustpan and a bristled brush, sweep out any stray litter pieces or clumps that escaped the plastic tray. Then use a lint-free cloth that is dampened with warm water. Wipe the bottom of the furniture pieces where the litter tray was sitting to ensure it’s spotless. Wipe it dry with a towel or dry cloth.

If you want your kitty litter box furniture to fit seamlessly with the rest of your home decor, you can’t go wrong with a piece that resembles an end table or cabinet. This way, you won’t have to deal with an ugly-looking plastic tray filled with litter in plain sight.

The litter box furniture should be easy to access, not only for your cat but also for you, when you need to clean the interior. In this case, a top opening enclosure or a large front door can come in handy.

A ventilation system, such as holes, dual carbon filters, or wooden slats, is also a must-have to keep unpleasant smells from building up.

Keep in mind that the furniture should be spacious enough for your cat and the litter tray to fit in, so your cat can easily adjust to it.

Other features that may prove to be useful are reversible side walls, a surface that doubles as a scratching post, and a foldable design for easy storage.
