What pan size should I choose?

This largely depends on how big a pet you have. However, some cat owners prefer longer pans and those with higher walls not only to give the cat a fair amount of space but also to decrease tracking and litter scattering.

How do I know if this is the right litter box for my cat?

Normally, cats do not mind having to use this or that box or even different boxes at the same time. Should your cat get picky and refuse to use a certain box, check the following: 1) if it is installed properly (e.g., not near the feeding area), 2) if it is cleaned on a regular basis, 3) try to change the litter for a different one.

Does it matter how much a litter box weights?

It does, especially for big pets. Weighty boxes will remain in place even when your cat steps on one wall. You might like to have a holder for light/disposable trays or use a heavier litter with them.

What is the difference between a cheap litter box and an expensive one?

They may differ in material and functionality. Plastic of cheaper quality tend to develop stains and become smelly; stainless steel is superior to it in every respect – but it costs considerably higher. Furthermore, expensive boxes often offer self-cleaning and no-scoop operation, making for a perfect buy for people who cannot stand the look of feline messes.

Will I always need to use a scoop? What about the best cat litter boxes?

Premium boxes comb the litter on their own, so emptying the bin will be the only job left for you.

What is the most suitable wash to clean the box?

Many cat owners use a weak solution of bleach. Other cleaners/disinfectants will do as well, just remember to rinse the tray with clean water.

How does the type of litter matter?

Certain litter types, for instance, crystals, do not produce dust. They also stick less to your cat’s paws. Also, you might like to look for a litter that absorbs smells and excessive moisture.
