Choose the Best Litter Box for Your Cat

You're perception that covered litter boxes should not used is just that; your perception, perhaps based on your personal experience. Covered works for some and doesn't for others. I think your cat will let you know if he/she doesnt like the covered litterbox, but its worth a try in the beginning. If the cat hates it, dont use it. However, if the cat is using it, good. The dust from the litter shouldnt be harmful or else the dust and debris that gets caught up in a cats paw would be considered harmful as well. Yesterday's news is an excellent type of non-clumping and recycled litter. Even though she admitted to forgetting to clean her own cats litter box out, she did advise people earlier in the video to clean their litter box out "on a daily basis".

Wow. There are quite a few problems with the advice given in this video. First of all, covered litter boxes should not be used. Some cats don't have the room to turn around in it, some feel claustrophobic and feel trapped if other cats are outside waiting, the odor is trapped and is heightened in the box which is not pleasant for the cat. Also, they breath in more dust from the litter because it is trapped in there and not well ventilated. Second of all, Clorox should NOT be used to clean cat boxes because it creates noxious fumes and it also smells similar to cat urine to a cat. Vinegar should be used instead. "I forgot to clean it's litter box for a few weeks" is quite a disturbing statement. Cat boxes should be cleaned daily.
