FAQs

1. How do I know if my cat feels uncomfortable with a new litter box type?

Cats show discomfort by avoiding the box, perching on the edge, scratching excessively, or eliminating outside the litter area. If this happens, switch to a more open layout or a box with easier entry until your cat adjusts.

2. How often should I replace a plastic litter box?

Plastic wears down over time and can trap odors. Most cats benefit from replacing plastic boxes every 12–18 months, while stainless steel models last far longer with no odor absorption.

3. Why does my cat scratch the sides or floor instead of covering the litter?

This usually means the cat dislikes the texture, depth, or smell of the litter. Try switching to a finer grain, increasing the litter depth, or choosing a box with more room to turn and dig comfortably.

4. Why does my cat prefer an open litter box even when I buy an enclosed one?

Some cats feel trapped or vulnerable in enclosed designs. Start with the lid removed, and gradually reintroduce the top once your cat gets familiar with the base.
