Petmate Top Entry Litter Pan

I have a cat who likes to stand when he urinates. This cat litter box helped to stop the pooling caused when he peed using the traditional type of litter box. With a traditional type front entry little box, he would pee on the top half of the box causing the urine to pool on the lip where the top and bottom met. This litter box gives him enough room to do his business with no issues, contains all his urine, and they seem to like it better. My other male cat was defecating on the bathroom floor regularly and since switching to this litter box he has completely stopped (we’ve been using this for 2-3 weeks). It’s been a great switch for us and our three cats.

I ordered this cat box to keep my dogs out of the litter, its a great height so they cant duck their heads into the top which is what I wanted. The door is a snap on hinge and I like the idea of it but it isn't very sturdy so when I go to clean the box, the lid falls off, not a real issue. It gets the job done and I like the size, its a little skinny so make sure you read the description for the dimensions, especially if you have a big cat.

I couldn't be happier with this product. It is very durable I was afraid it was going to be flimsy and hard to handle after it was full of litter. So easy to move when full if you don't have a problem lifting heavy items. The lid is very durable and definitely helps keep the litter tracking. I was having a problem with my cats a male and female both fixed peeing over the sides. This box fixed that problem I couldn't be happier. The only problem I had was getting my cats to use it. My cats took quite a while to get adjusted to using it they were scared of it at first.

I was really hoping this would be the solution to my litter-spreading problem, but my cats just weren’t interested. In two months, they used this box maybe three times. They defaulted to their usual box and, when it wasn’t an option, went outside the box rather than use the open-top. They’re big boys, but this box is big enough for them to fit comfortably. I’m hoping a friend will have better luck.

My cat (approx. 8-9 lbs) kicks litter everywhere when she goes. I switched from a covered box with front entry to this, and she loves it. I actually put her former box in another location as a backup, but she pretty much never uses it. I think this one is large enough for her, and the top entry keeps (pretty much) all the litter in the box.

It works well enough to keep the dogs out which is what I int need it for. I just wish the lid would stay on when I open it to clean. It's supposed to stay in the little grooves but it doesn't. It's mildly irritating but I can tolerate it because there's no more litter box surfing by the dogs. It's a little smaller than I would like for my 4 male cats as well but I scoop 3-4 times every day.

I have 2 older cats and 2 younger cats. One of my older boys is very tall and even though I had large covered boxes the urine was able to come through where the top and bottom of the box met. Messy. I was afraid that this new box would not be well received but I was pleasantly surprised. All four cats had no problem at all. Success from the first try! Much cleaner and sanitary! Yea!!!

I love this litter box! It has helped so much with how much litter my kitty kicks up. I tried one with a hood but he still managed to get litter everywhere. I was afraid he wouldn't use it or wouldn't understand how to but he got it right away! I was also hesitant because he only has three legs and has trouble jumping but he's had no problems!

My cat pees over his litter box and i had no idea how to deter it. I got desperate and went searching on how to stop it. Found top entry litter box and felt as though the heavens opened up. I couldn't wait for it to arrive after I ordered it. It is amazing. I love this litter box so much you dont even know! My cat uses it just fine. I had his old litter box on standby if he couldn't get use to the top entry.

I was skeptical about ordering this product. I have 3 cats. One is a 15lb Siberian and the other 2 are domestic longhairs that range between 10 and 12lbs. They can easily fit into the opening and seem to really love it! I keep the litter box in our bathroom that has wood floors. With a standard litter box, I was sweeping up litter all day every day. I have not had to sweep up litter once since getting this box. I intend to buy more to replace the hooded litter boxes we have.
