How to Keep Your Dog out of the Cat Litter Using the Plastic Tub Method

In a small apartment, sometimes finding a place to put the litter box where the dog can't go is difficult. Here is another way to hide your litter box from your dog.

[edit] Steps

  1. Obtain a large (30-50gal) plastic tub. Make sure your litter box will fit on the bottom.
  2. Measure the widest part of your cat and cut a hole in the lid of your plastic tub large enough for your cat to get in through.
  3. Place the litter box in the tub, place the lid back on the tub, and show the new place to your cat.


[edit] Tips

  • If your cat is too elderly or overweight to use this method, you can do a similar thing by flipping the tub over and cutting a hole in the side of the tub. This allows for side entry rather than top entry.


[edit] Warnings

  • The side opening won't work if your dog is as small as your cat.
