Dear Scratching Cactus Family,
The right placement of the litter box is crucial for your cat’s well-being! Even our feline friends Felix and Luna know that a litter box should be quiet, clean, and easy to access. With a few simple tips, you can ensure that your cat happily uses their litter box and feels completely at ease.
The Perfect Spot for the Litter Box
Peace and Privacy Matter
Cats don’t like being disturbed or watched while using their litter box. A quiet, low-traffic area is ideal. Felix loves his private corner, where he can do his business undisturbed and feel secure.
No High-Traffic Areas
Placing the litter box in the middle of a hallway or near a noisy washing machine? Not a good idea! Loud noises and frequent disturbances might make your cat avoid using it. Luna prefers a tucked-away spot where she feels safe and unbothered.
Easy Access and Cleanliness
Make sure the litter box is easily accessible so your cat can use it whenever they need to. If you have an older or less mobile cat, choose a low-entry box that’s easy to get in and out of. Keeping the litter box clean is also essential—cats have a strong sense of smell and will avoid a dirty box.
Extra Tip: Multiple Boxes for Multi-Cat Households
If you have more than one cat, follow the golden rule: one litter box per cat, plus one extra! This prevents conflicts and ensures that every cat has a comfortable option.
With the right placement and care, you’ll create an environment where your cat feels comfortable and secure. Felix and Luna remind us that a well-placed litter box is key to a happy cat life!
Best wishes,
your Scratching Cactus Team 🌵
