All About Litter Boxes


Do you ever wonder when the litter box was invented? This nifty box is useful in keeping the cat’s poop and urine in one container.

The first litter box came out in 1974. Before litter boxes, the cat would go outdoor for her toilet needs. The sand or dirt is the usual destination to relieve them.

The litter box design takes into consideration the needs of humans. It is targeted towards humans. You can get the most of a litter box as long as you know how to use it properly. You will need one litter box per cat. But it is always helpful to have an extra litter box at all times. In short, if you have three cats at home, you should have four litter boxes for good measure.

You should remove the waste at least once a day. You can then replace the box with additional litter. On the other hand, you should replace the content of a non-clumping litter weekly. Finally, you should wash the litter box with soap and hot water. Don't use strong chemicals because the cat will still smell them. Clean the box every month.

Persistent litter box issues should warrant an appointment with your pet clinic Virginia Beach, VA to make sure that your pet’s behavior is not caused by an underlying health issue.
