If you have a "bully" cat and a "victim" cat, the victim cat may not be willing to enter an enclosure where she can get cornered by the bully. This might also apply to a cat who is nervous with a dog in the house. If your cat is actually sleeping in his own filthy litter box, you have a terribly frightened cat. Otherwise the advantage of a covered litter box is that it stops litter from flying all over the place and can somewhat reduce the smell.

Covered litter boxes prevent stains on walls from cats that usually stand up to ***** and scattering of litter by cats that scratch excessively inside the litter box.

When rake cleans makes loud noise

Open the left side of the box and you'll see a white plastic part covering the hole. Get scissors and cut it out. The metal piece moving the rake was dragging on the plastic and so I cut it out of mine and now it's back to normal !

Why is clumping cat litter better than clay litter?

Neither one is better than the other, they are based on preference. More people prefer to use clumping cat litter. Although clay litter is cheaper and absorbs well, clumping cat litter offers more advantages in my opinion. Clumping cat litter is much friendlier to the environment, seeing as you do not need to throw away the whole litter box every time your cat releases waste. It is easy to dispose of your cats waste products and helps to diminish the amount of odors.

Is it better to get a covered or uncovered litter box for my cat?

I prefer uncovered litter boxes. Some cats may become claustrophobic in a covered litter box, giving them a sense of being trapped. Although covered litter boxes may seem like an appealing method of reducing odors throughout your home, consider how your cat will feel. A cats sense of smell is much stronger and more sensitive than ours. Lastly, covered litter boxes can trap a lot of dust. This may seem advantageous; however it is quite the opposite. The dust can be very difficult on your cats lungs and become very unhealthy.

How much litter should I put in the litter box?

You should have enough litter to allow your cat to easily cover any waste it leaves behind. Make sure that there is enough so that they don't feel the bottom of the litter box. You should give your cat a minimum of a 2 inch base of litter in the box.
