Litter Box Cleaning Kit

I have been having litter box issues.  I have tried the fancy electric cat boxes only to find that they get stuck all of the time, they are hard to clean, and they are noisy.  I wanted to go back to the plain plastic cat box but they were too small. I have 4 cats and they go in and out of the house as they please.

 I was looking around the storage bin section of Wall-Mart when I came across an insert to one of their storage bins. It was as deep as a regular cat box but it was much bigger. It was sold separately from the bin itself.  The price tag was under $5 so I thought I would give it a try.  The kitties sure did like all of their added space. I liked that it was big enough and easier to clean.  Win! Win!

Then I came up with an organizational solution for the litter supplies so that I didn’t have to haul them back and forth to each cat box twice a day.   

I introduced my litter box cleaning kit on my Kitty Corner post (here). This is a system I have been using for a while and it works well for us. I have one stationed by the litter box inside and the one on the porch.

 Litter Box Cleaning Kit Includes:

• A poop scoop with a dish to catch any litter still on the scoop so it doesn’t get in the box.

• A poop holding bin. (An up cycled coffee container). When the holding bin gets full, we take it to the trash. This is a big time saver.

• Plastic bags to change the poop holding bin. (An old tissue box holder works great)  I just recycle the bags I get from Publix.

• A little broom to clean small messes. (Dollar Tree)

• A can of disinfectant spray

 I just can’t tell you how well this works! Everything is right where I need it!
