Purrrfect Pet Solution


In our house, we have a cute kitty and we love having her around especially when both the cat and the dog sit aside one another on our big fluffy rug fireside, on those cold winter evenings when we are all toasting ourselves by the fire there’s nothing that completes our home more. However, one drawback to having a purring pussycat by your side is when kitty has to go to the bathroom.

 We’ve had our cat about 18 months, we rescued her and are glad we did but my other half is just about at his wits end with cleaning up after it and tripping over the litter tray. So after a one too many rows over what to do I turned to Pinterest and came across these fabulous ideas…


 


   We have installed a cupboard under the sink in the utility room, with a cat flap so our pet can use easily when we are not there. I have even gone the extra mile to tile the inside and have installed the litter box into a sunken frame, which too is tiled for ease of cleaning. The front of the cupboard has hinged doors so we can get into it to clean and remove any nasty’s. We have also put a hook inside the cupboard for the scoop and bags as it seemed the obvious place to store it.

Items needed:
Plastic litter tray
Cat litter / shredded newspaper/ sawdust
Scoop
Hook
Cupboard (ideally with hinged doors) / Wooden storage box
Cat flap
Air vent (optional)
Saw
Sandpaper
Hinges
Screws
Screwdriver

If tiling:
Tiles
Tile Adhesive
Grout
Tile spacers

Time needed: 30 mins / 1 hour.

Tip: Pop a car hanging air freshener on a hook in there too!
