Catit Jumbo Hooded Cat Pan

I have five of these litter boxes and every single one is great. I can pick them up and move them by just the handle when they are filled with litter. The times the lid has not stayed on, it was MY fault for not latching it appropriately. The boxes work great. Sometimes I make a mistake and don't get the lid all the way on or don't push the latch ALL THE WAY, leaving it not securely latched. Can't blame the box for user error. Also, to the reviewer who said the carbon filters don't fit properly: they aren't squares. You need to put them in the correct way. I've replaced them many times and there has never been one that didn't fit when installed properly.

I ordered this because it's hard to find large covered litter boxes. I knew the method for cleaning it from the flip top would never work for me, the four 7 month old kittens are particularly found of peeing in the corners and it would be difficult to do that. I planned to open the top and remove it as I did with the smaller box they used when the were smaller. I explored how the box worked before using it, and discovered it was not easy to get the whole lid off. In fact it was a challenge. Needless to say this box did not work for me.

This is the favorite litter box in the house . However it broke within 2-3 days . It cracked right through the center on the upper rim of bottom part . Its extremely roomy . My cats love it . HOWEVER … I cant pick it up because if I so much as move it the litter will breakthrough & land on my floor. Too gross to imagine. So I have had to put disposable trays in it ever since. Unfortunately I order a lot and didn’t realize where I bought it until weeks after my first 50 each delivery of disposable trays . It needs to be strengthened before I would recommend. Would like another bottom but I refuse to pay again. If they care I will revise my review. I did not pick it up carelessly either. I held This is the favorite litter box in the house .

Big roomy hooded box with nice side clips to secure the top. I always hold a litter box from the bottom when filled with litter and never from the hood top.Some people complained about hood not holding when moving it? The biggest let down is that the door scrapes the rim of the box. I put my kitten thru the door but she could not get herself out because the swing door gets hung up .Chalk it up to a bad design.I bought a hooded box with a swing door because it is the secondary box for the house which is placed in my workout room and I didn’t want the smell. I placed a plastic bag across the top and under the swing door which lifts it just the right amount allowing the door to now swing with ease Big roomy hooded box with nice side clips to secure the top.

I didn’t want to try and trim the bottom of the swing door because I was afraid it would create sharp uneven edges. My quick fix was the bag under the top of the swing door.If the door had worked properly I would have given 5 stars .Every other aspect of the box is great. … more

I love this litter box, but I have yet to find litter box liners that actually fit. I have been getting by using “kitty little jumbo liners” but they don’t fit perfectly. I was reading reviews for the manufacturer’s liners and it seems they aren’t of great quality. This would be the only thing to deter me from ordering another one of these litter boxes. I will continue to use it, however. It seriously is the best litter box I’ve found yet.

I changed my litter box to this jumbo box to give my fur babies more room to do their business! I used the jumbo liners, which I had to stretch to fit, but they worked. My babies took to this box quickly, with no transition anxiety. I did put a bit of their “used” litter in to make it theirs, so it wasn’t so sterile to their scent. Worked like a charm. The reason I didn’t give it five stars is because it isn’t as easy to remove the clumps as my previous box. It is in a closet and even though there is a light in the closet, it isn’t easy to see into the box to scoop the used litter, without removing the entire top, which is not an option.

I think the box itself is meowvelous. The Cat loves it; he has plenty of room to do the scratch and bury. HOWEVER. And this is a big HOWEVER (as evidenced by the all caps)...the carbon filters do NOT fit correctly and thus do not work nearly as well as other litter boxes' filters. It is almost as if the holder for the filters is overdesigned, which makes it underperform. I would love to see filters designed specifically for this box. Come on Catit, make it happen.

I like very much almost everything about this hooded cat pan. It looks great, it's roomy enough to work for our two cats, and (with the help of the litter-trapper mat I purchased with it), the area stays much cleaner than before. I did need to take off the swinging door as neither cat wanted to push through it, but without the door, they use the box just fine. The only problem I have is with the plastic "locks" meant to keep the top and bottom parts together. The locks don't seem to align well on one side. Is there a trick to getting all four locks to work? Also, assuming this problem can be fixed, would the locks be secure enough to allow carrying the pan filled with litter?

This litterbox is definitely preferred by all of my cats. I can't exactly say why as I know some people are against covered litter boxes but my cats seem to prefer it! I had issues with one of my cats going outside the box so I decided to get another box to put where she peed. Along with the cat attract litter she almost never goes outside of the box anymore and I have to clean this one frequently since the other 2 cats seem to like it as well. I actually have 2 of them now. Highly recommend!

I had to leave 1 star to leave a review. These used to be great litter boxes and when they were Out of Stock I waited months for them to be back in stock. I purchased 10 of the Magic Blue and 2 of the White. The plastic is thin, the lids don't latch on and if you leave the latches disconnected the top is still hard to lift off. Also, the handle comes off. The entire quality is so bad I'm returning them. Such a shame because the size is great, and quality used to be really good as well.
