    A Fancy Folding Litter Box.... DIY Style

    Hi! So, there has been A LOT of snow and planes are getting delayed by hours. Of course, Astrid and I are off for reading break so I had to come up with some type of litter box for the airport, just in case. I thought about buying a disposable one, but with my luck, security would take it away...

    New kitty, first full day in my place!

    Baldwin is finally home. He's acclimating really well, eating, playing and exploring . He is however not using his litter box. I am using the same wood pellets the breeder was. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks also how do I go about kitten proofing.

    Using the house as his bathroom

    hey everyone! Hope all is well. Unfortunately, grimley has been giving everyone a hard time because he has been peeing and pooping everywhere. His litter box is always clean and he's not as picky with his litter as my Ghouleh, I know this because she meows after she uses it which is basically...

    My cat will not poo in litter box

    Koko is three and we rescued her from someone who couldn't care for her. I was in touch with her original breeder and we used the wood pellet litter. She was fine at first then started pooing on the bare floor. The breeder said it was because she didn't like the smell of her pee and to change...

    Litter box issues/solutions

    Earlier today I learned of a sphynx in need of a home largely due to some litter box issues. I've said that I may be willing to try to work with him (he is going to be evaluated by a vet before I can make any decisions about moving forward!) Here's what I know ... He is estimated to be 7 years...

    Litter box, is there a better place?

    This is more of a general cat question, but was curious... Where is a good place to put a litter box in a small home? Our Sphynx, when they go, reak!! We have a very nice automated litter box to help control it, but I struggle with a place to put the box. I don't want it in the main room, and...

    more poop problems

    I think I mentioned this in my previous posts, but I'm going to bring it up again and see if you guys have any experience, insight, or advice for me on this. Ophelia has a tendency to step in her poop - a lot. Not all the time, but about once a week (at least) she poops and steps in it in the...

    What is the "cleanest" cat litter to use with a Spynx?

    I feel like my kitty is always dirty from the dust of the litter. I have tried many different kinds and am now thinking of switching boxes completely to with Breeze or the Smart Cat Box, they both use pellets. Anyone have any suggestions for the "cleanest" litter out there? Thanks!!

    breeze litter box?

    I've had many friends recommend the breeze litter system to me since it is a lot less smelly, and there is no litter that will be tracked around the house. My kitten was using scoop away before I bought her, so I bought that for her to use and placed it next to the breeze. I'm trying to...

    How often do you clean the litter box?

    I don't mean scoop it, but actually empty out and change the full contents and clean and disinfect the whole box?

    Automatic litter box

    Has anyone had any experience dealing with these kinds of litter boxes? Has your sphynx had any problems using it (side not-or crystal type cat litter in general )?

    Kitty Prozac

    Have you ever needed to put a pet on prozac? Nym is currently taking it, and it seems to really be helping with her litterbox problems. I resisted prozac for the longest time because she isn't depressed, and I didn't like the effects it had on me when I had to take an SSRI (one year; first...
