I like this litter box for my senior cat but I wish the sides were a lot shorter like the opening as well.
Low enough for geriatric cats.
Holds poop & pee... thats about it. Too expensive
Perfect liter box for an aging cat. Provides ample room for cat maneuvering in litter box. Solved my problem with cat being uncomfortable in hooded box. Solved my problem and cat is happy.
My elderly cat steps in easily and has ample room to move around. A must have for senior kitties!
My 13 year old cat has been pooping out of the box for quite some time now and I finally took the plunge and purchased her a new box. Wow! I filled it with litter upon arrival and she came to investigate and within seconds, walked herself into the new box, dug a little, and pooped! My partner and I were in shock and so proud and grateful. 5+ stars!
This did not work well for me but I’m 75 so age may be a factor. I could not handle the mess that came with the easier entry for my senior cats.It’s a great litter box though, nice & big with a short lip. Well constructed & big!
Roomy litter box for a geriatric cat with arthritic hind legs. The entrance is low and saves a cat the discomfort of having to climb up to enter a tall entrance .
We have an older cat who was struggling to hop in and out of the old litter box. Eventually, she started going outside of it.Switching to this helped immensely and our cat uses this instead of my carpet.
Purchasing the Senior Cat Litter Box has greatly improved our older cat’s quality of life—he now gets in and out with ease. Interestingly, although he was mostly an outdoor cat before, he now chooses to use the litter box more often than going outside. This results in us spending more on cat litter, but we’re happy to do so as it keeps him comfortable.
Near the end of my cats life, she was having trouble with her normal, open litter boxes. She kept having accidents along the outside of them. We decided to purchase a lower profile litter box to see if this would help. It didn’t fix the problem entirely, however, we did have some success. This litter box is lower profile, has a lower entry point, and is much larger than the standard boxes that we had. I would purchase again if there was a need.
This is a MUST for senior cats and probably good for kittens too. We had a senior cat (19 & 3/4 yrs old) & she struggled to go in the box. Unfortunately we didn’t realize why during her senior years. Afterwards we realized why - animals get the same aches, pains, arthritis struggles that humans do. So we bought 2 of these litter pans because we will NOT be making that mistake again. Anyway you can -- make the lives of tiny, senior, or handicapped creatures easier. And it is NOT easy to find litter boxes that accommodate this by having a very low entry point!
I have purchased at least 4 of the litter boxes with low height entry for my kitties. This is my go-to product especially as my little ones age and experience challenges.The extremely low entry allows for larger and smaller kitties to maintain their dignity and use a box, even as arthritis makes it harder for them to move around. Normal size boxes have entries that are just too high for the aging to get a step over, resulting in messes the kitties don’t want to be causing. Both my aged main coon, Ozzy and a little lynx point tabby Sugar, experienced these challenges but used this product where no others were a good fit.The wide width and length of the boxes allow for the larger kitties to move freely and have room to scrape and turn. The low height can be a challenge when they can’t squat or angle appropriately, like my tuxedo kitties Romeo and Buttercup. But a little wee wee pad on the wall beside the box solves that problem, while allowing the kitties with mobility issues to be excellent at Catting and scratch up a storm after doing their business.The boxes clean easily, and retain their coating through multiple washes. I only replace them after a rainbow bridge passing, or when a kitty starts showing signs of litter box challenges and it’s time to get them their very own Kitty Go Here.As the rest of my kitty group continues to age, I feel better knowing I have the right product to fit their changing needs. My kitties can age gracefully having your product to help them at this point in their journey
It is wide and has low sides and a lower entrance so it is easier on my arthritic cat. Wider means more space for her to maneuver around and find a good spot to use each time. She seems to kick out less litter. She still gets wee outside the box, but that was a problem with taller sides also.Could not find a litter box liner to fit, but a full size drawstring trash bag is just about the right size when you put it on sideways, just putting the whole box inside it.Edit= It is now maybe 6 months later, and the litter box has worked really well. I do use the drawstring trash bags as liners and it works fine. I would buy this item again.
I had to write a review on my experience with this litter box or should I say my kitties experience. He has developed a problem walking so we decided to get him a shorter litter box so he didn't have to climb over the tall sides. With the tall sided litter box, Gizmo would pee up against the side and inevitably the pee ball would stick on the bottom and the side and I would have to scrape it out for hours. I don't know what it is with this litter box, maybe the short sides that are not intimidating but every single time he pees in the middle or just off from the middle and the pee ball is perfectly round and easy to scoop out doesn't stick to anything because it doesn't hit a wall or the bottom. The large size is perfect for our 16 lb cat. We love this litter box so much that we bought two and got rid of our others. I just can't recommend this litter box more even for kitties that don't have trouble climbing into the high sides of the other ones. Wish I would have known about this when he was younger.AND CHERRY ON TOP (or should I say pee ball on top) THIS LITTERBOX IS MADE IN AMERICA!!! That alone is reason to purchase!!
I had a custom cabinet built in my laundry with a slide out drawer to fit this exact cat litter pan. Hands down love it for those lazy days i forget to scoop, it doesn't require a jackhammer, pick and an axe to scoop out like some other plastic boxes I've had since one of the cats likes to do his #1 only in one corner. I've had so many diff types of litter pans and litter boxes through the years, hands down this is the best for my cats. It's nice and big, too, but not heavy when I dump everything as mostly all just slides right out. Very easy to clean. My senior cat, who i bought this for, eventually hit the rainbow road but it really helped his last year. The new kitten and Mr. Handsome, kitty #2, use it well so it is not just for senior kitties. It does tend to lose litter that piles up outside the box at that lowered part in the center designed for their entry/exit. Maybe a future design could have an extended lip there that juts out more to capture the messy cats that shovel around a lot of litter doing their bidness.

I bought this box (the largest size) for my small dog (7 pounds) a couple weeks ago. The first few days were difficult. I started keeping a close eye on him and, throughout the day, I would randomly lure him in with a treat just to get him used to going in and out of it. I'd praise/treat like crazy everytime he used it, and slowly he started to become more comfortable with it. Now he's a pro! I bought the Tofu flushable litter and cleaning it is so hassle free.We tried a normal litter box before this one and he hated it. The sides were too high, the box was too small, and the texture was very slippery, so he was sliding around awkwardly in it. This litter box has a more textured plastic and lower sides, making it much easier for him to use, and it's plenty big enough for him to spin around in circles before he finally squats. Haha! I also like the colors it comes in. The only con about this box is how pricey it is.Overall, awesome product!Pros:-large-textured plastic-low sides-appealing colorsCons:-expensiveI've seen a person or two mention that they had a hard time getting the clumps unstuck form the bottom of the box. I just turn the pooper scooper over and scrape the clump forward and it releases easily.
Our 13-yrs old cat changed his bathroom behavior suddenly, which means pooping and then peeing outside of litter box nearly one month ago. After trying changing litter more frequently and exploring different litter brands, we bought this litter box designed for senior cat, the large one, since I read that the box should be 1.5 times the cat length.Before receiving this box, my cat already found a second location for dump...which is in my shoe shelf. It really takes time to clean the smell (not be able to clear it) and frustrates everyone. After receiving the new litter box for senior cat, he did not touch the old litter box, and went with this new one in his second dump spot for a whole day now.So I think it must be something wrong with the old litter box that compelled my cat to act unbeholden. It also means that this new litter box for senior cat works well. I do not regret for paying 40 dollars or so and get this new one, the quality worths. And it looks and feels really sturdy for the material.The ONLY problem now that we encountered with this litter box is that the large one is really large, and make it a little bit hard to put litter box liners in. I'm using some lines bought randomly from supermarket and Jonny Cat Heavy Duty Jumbo Liners. You have to stretch the liners hard in order to cover the four corners of the box. Otherwise, your cat will just skip the liner and pee inside the box directly, which means that you have to clean it after throwing out the liners.Overall, this is a product that I recommend to everyone who has senior animals at home.
I have four senior cats, one of which has spondylosis in his last four vertebrae. Several months ago, he started peeing and sometimes pooping just outside the litter boxes, and I could not figure out why. As I think another reviewer stated, I didn't suspect climbing in and out of the litter boxes being an issue since he still jumps on and off of low furniture. But this became a real problem since the boxes are on carpet. I was shampooing the carpet weekly, but the house still smelled of urine. I tried putting a plastic runner down, but the urine would sometimes still roll off onto the carpet and the odor was still so strong. Not to mention constantly sopping up the puddles was unpleasant, so I then added puppy pee pads on top of the plastic runner. That helped a little bit with the odor and made cleanup easier, but I still couldn't understand why this was happening after 14 years of no "accidents". I was looking online simply for some larger litter boxes when I came across this low design. The other customer reviews sold me on giving it a try, and I'm so grateful! It's been about a week now and life is back to normal. The cat immediately and proudly began using this box, and my house no longer stinks! With the low sides, I was worried about tons of litter being shoveled out by one of my other cats who gets a little too enthusiastic digging, but so far it hasn't been much of a problem. (I still keep a plastic runner down now to easily sweep up what's flung out.) **Please note that if you order the green color like I did, it doesn't look at all like the photos. It's a much darker, vibrant green similar to the color of street signs.**
