Are the litter liners a necessity for this kit or a suggestion?

How much space is there between the bottom of the nesting pan and the grid? Why are there 2 nesting pans?

Answer by Chewy • Dec 30, 2018
The sifting tray sits directly on top of the bottom pan. The litter box comes with two base pans you so can transfer the litter back into the box once it's cleaned.

If you’re using pine pellets just know that the sifting grates clog very easily. There is also barely any room between the sifter and the bottom of the pan which makes no sense, it makes it stick and clog faster. The boxes are much smaller than expected to the point that my cats started accidentally missing the box because of overshooting when pooping. Having random poops outside of the box because they miss is weird and pee dribbles. It’s an awkward box for sure.

We recently switched to a different litter and I bought this specifically to make clean up easy. The holes in the sieve are not large enough and the litter just ends up stuck in the sieve and doesn't sift out the used litter to the bottom pan. So clean up was not easy at all.

Great concept. Poor execution.

The idea behind this litter box is great! The problem is actually using it to sift. The top is difficult to put on and take off. So you either flip dirty litter all over or you poor cat poop on the floor trying to dump the clumps in a trash bag. The box is also a little small. My cats will get all four feet in and then poop on the floor.

I bought these for my cats and they are best suited for really small kittens. The sifting part seems easy to use but is far from it, “stuff” gets stuck in the holes of the sifter and worse one of my cats poops right over the side, every time. I wish I had not wasted my money on these. As the saying goes, you get what you pay for. Save your money, don’t buy these.

I purchased this litter mainly for the side cover. I thought it was going to be great to solve the messiness around the litter; it does help a little, but not as much as I would love to. The sifting part is great, it does get some pee stuck, but nothing bad, it can be washed by leaving it in water for a couple of hours.

The plastic is a little weak.

I am using the silicone litter that doesn't weigh much. The pans are working well for that. I don't know how well they would hold up for clay litter or heavy cats

I am using the silicone litter that doesn't weigh much. The pans are working well for that. I don't know how well they would hold up for clay litter or heavy cats. Also, the instructions say to leave the "sifting box" on top for the cats to use. Don't do that! They don't like the texture and their claws catch on the holes. Just leave one of the solid boxes on top, with the litter, and Problem Solved. Everything is still sifting easily when you pour it through sifter into the other solid pan. Store the sifter between the 2 solid pans.

Well my cat likes to poop ON the lip around the frame

We upgraded from the basic blue litter box pan style to this. I thought it would be easier to clean and liked the small privacy it created with the design. I placed a trash bag inside each blue pan and the 1st time I took the hood piece off and took the sifter tray out I had a complete brain part and walked to the trash with it - not realizing I left the blue tray on top of the other blue tray and legit was leaving a trail of litter behind me. What a moron move- but that's on me- just here to say dont make my mistake. This definitely has a learning curve of 1 error. Initially my cat seemed to like pooping ON the back edge of this not sure why. Now he "gets it" and uses it correctly. While I don't LOVE the design - it's a little clunky sifting and pouring the remaining litter into a clean blue tray, adding back the sifter, then filing it up with the litter. Just clunky. Overall it's fine for now but not sure I'm seeing the value.

The issue with this box is that since it is so shallow, I have to scrape the clumped litter off of the side of the box itself. I realize that it is the size of the box but still, it is inconvenient. I put this inside a piece of furniture and we had to have a low front height to meet the opening in the furniture piece itself. I used a deeper box last time and cut out an opening on the front to match the opening on the piece of furniture. I may go back to that.

Perfect size for average cat

I use pellets and add a wee wee pad to the bottom tray to collect the dust. Quick & easy clean up.
