Cat litter box
For those of us who choose to own pets, there's some definite responsibility involved. Not only do house pets need fed, groomed and cared for in a medical sense on a routine basis, but they additionally need a place to use the bathroom at any given moment during the day or night. While dogs require an owner to take them outdoors all the time, cats simply require a cat litter box. Okay, so this sounds fairly straight forward and simple, however, a cat litter box can be more of a hassle that originally anticipated. Trust me; I know all about this aspect of caring for a housecat. After all, I have three of them, and none of them are too tidy about using the litter box. This is why a special cat litter box is required for the job.
All litter boxes are definitely not created equally! There's the old-school, manual cat litter box that basically sits somewhere in your house, basement or garage with the litter completely exposed. The cat steps in, uses the bathroom and then proceeds to kick litter all over the place, attempting to cover up his/her mess. While this litter box does still work, it can be a bit messy and quite stinky at times. Then you have the enclosed cat litter boxes. These are a step up in regards to keeping most of the cat litter inside the box, but they can also stink to high heaven, if not emptied on a regular basis, which is almost daily if you have multiple cats. Finally there are automatic litter boxes for felines. These are quite the new-age concept to say the least. The cat steps in the open litter box to do his/her business, and then is warned by a beeping noise to get out. Once the cat steps out of the litter box, the cat litter box cleans up the mess. A raking device sweeps through the litter, forcing any stool into a compartment, which closes to lock in odor. This way your humble abode doesn't smell like it belongs to a cat.
