Thread: Number of litter boxes

My cat's born and bred British- he's far too polite for any of that. He just sits in front of the door and quietly looks at you until you finally get it.

hahaha yes I had one like that too Inelxelsis - we used to say she prayed to the God of the Door. She would sit in a very anxious position as if she was on the bog, too :-D

I am upto 3 at the moment as I have 3 cats and again have had no problems and it honestly doesn't take long to clean and re litter them, I use litter wipes which makes cleaning them a doddle Jckerrison do you possibly have a link to these under bed storage boxes as I may consider them for when I get my 2 MC's as I am not sure what litter trays to get at the mo and would like ones that are big enough when there fully grown. Thanks.

Sorry no good at doing links but googled & yep ours do come up,we just get them from a cheap outlet shop but if you google Crystal plastic storage boxes, the 50ltr one is what we have got four of at the moment,the fith one is same depth but longer as that fitted in the outside pen better but at Wilco's I think the 50litre one is priced at £7 so that gives you an idea of what you can get them for.....x

I have three permanent and large trays and 10 cats, and they also have a pea gravel facility on the patio which can be washed and scooped. The trays are cleaned regularly, scooped at least 2/3 times each day, and we rarely have any problems. I do put out more trays when we have babies, I think the record number this year was 9 in total of varying sizes, but thank goodness it wasn't for long.

Well I've got two large cat boxes now. Cleaning the one out every day was not working out for Oliver, so I got a second one. He's still pooping in my shower, and I don't know why. I put the second box next to the shower, thinking if that's the spot he's picked as "his" it would be good. It can't be that it's dirty, because I'm constantly cleaning them. I'm worried that if I close the shower door he'll go somewhere more difficult to clean. Is he just doing it to spite me? He's not going in my husband's shower, so I'm wondering if it's personal. He seems to be getting along very well with Sterling, so I'm out of ideas. Help!
