IRIS Open Top Litter Box with Shield & Scoop

I needed a litter box with high sides to reduce spill - the one i currently have is too big for its space. There are two pieces - the bottom and the top. The bottom piece has curved edges and the bottom is not completely flat so it makes it very difficult to scoop anything along the sides as you can't slide the scooper flat across the edge. For some reason my cats only urinate on the edges of litter boxes so this one is not going to work for me.

I bought this thinking it would help contain the litter. It does not. The cover within 2 weeks' time would no longer attach to the bottom box. I put duct tape around the entire litter box. She still hops out and there is litter everywhere. She is a small calico so her size was not the problem. This is a piece of junk.

This litter box fits perfectly into the litter enclosure/furniture I bought (ecoFlex litter Loo by New Age Pet). The top and bottom parts fit together easily and securely. It was a very pleasant surprise that the scooper it came with actually sifts through Feline Pine litter! All other scoops I have owned have openings too small. Will purchase another for my next cat.

So glad to have been able to find this litter box again. After several years the ones we had were pretty worn out. The only thing I am not pleased with with the color: Black. Black is one of my favorite colors but not for a litter box. However, the depth and size of this litter box work very nicely with my trio of furry felines....

The cats like having the high sides and open top. Would not recommend because of the grooves on the bottom front and in the front corners. Both my cats pee in front of the box so when cleaning scoop litter, I have to use the corner of the scooper to scrape the groves which sometimes flings litter around. And the corners are awful to scrape out. Also the scooper holes are a little bigger than they should be so a lot of dirty litter all’s through. I had to buy new scoopers.

I replaced my old litter box to this open top litter box with shield. It made a whole lot difference with the shield and now I don't have to wipe the walls. I would definitely purchase this again in the future when I adopt a sister for my Penelope.

With an open box my cat scatters litter over the sides of the litter. This works beautifully - keeps litter in without the "cage" feel & look of a hooded box. At first I thought the removable sides might not be sturdy enuf - but they stay put nicely.

Excellent price for your kitty’s new treasure chest. Comes with a convenient scoop to dig for kitty’s gems. The guard is good to keep the litter inside while kitty can still enjoy unloading her jewels with the top down and the wind in her fur.

This is the second high side pan I've purchased. My first one snaps together. But this one doesn't. Brushing against the top cases it to fall off. Luckily my cat hasn't dislodged the top. The high sides do help capture the litter my cat likes to throw around when she digs, which is why I purchased this for her.

This is the worst litter box (and I bought 2). It has an odd contoured bottom to the box, which makes it nearly impossible to easily scoop up the clumps of urine because its not a flat surface. This makes everything that was clumped break apart and lengthen the whole process of cleaning. It also has a contour to the entry side that creates and area inside the box your scooper cannot get into. In short, it seems like this was designed to make cleaning a litter box more difficult.
