The litter box no longer has to be standing around in the home as a necessary evil. More and more cat owners are stylishly integrating the litter box into their homes. We have put together some ideas for you and explained what you should definitely pay attention to when setting up.

Every cat owner needs at least one litter box. Depending on the number and size of the cats, the number and size of the litter boxes will also vary. There are also different types of bedding, each with its own pros and cons. Read here what you should pay attention to when setting up the litter box and how you can integrate the litter box inconspicuously into your home.

Number, Size, and Location of the Litter Box

The rule of thumb for the number of litter boxes needed is a number of cats +1. If you follow this rule, even a single cat should have two litter boxes available. A cat should be able to get into the litter box without any problems. Especially with kittens or older cats, the edge must not be too high. In addition, the litter box must be big enough for the cat to turn around easily.

The correct location of the litter box must have the following properties:

• accessible at any time
• רויק
• light and dry
• געזונט ווענאַלייטיד
• away from the feeding station and scratching post

Inspirations for the Litter Box

One or more litter boxes are part of the basic equipment in a cat household. Nevertheless, it is possible to integrate the toilet into the apartment as inconspicuously as possible. We’ve picked out some inspiration on how you could set up litter boxes too. There are hardly any limits to the imagination when it comes to implementation.

It is only important that the cat can enter its toilet unhindered at any time, that the place is quiet, bright, and large enough. You also need easy access to the litter box for cleaning.

Inspiration 1: Bench and Litter Box in One

Benches can be made very well into houses for litter boxes. These can be bought ready-made, but you can also easily make your own by simply sawing an entrance into the piece of furniture.

Inspiration 2: Washbasin cabinet put to good use

Cabinets in the bathroom can also be wonderfully converted into “hiding places” for litter boxes.

You can also build a litter box vanity cabinet yourself by simply making a hole in the side of your cabinet that the cat can use as an entrance and exit:

Inspiration 3: Come to the Plant

“Flowerpots” are also suitable for integrating a litter box nicely into the home.
