Homemade Cat Litter Box

I love cats. But I hate the litter. They scatter it all around. Some dogs love to get into the litter. The smell can be terrible between changes. But I came up with a solution that is cheap and works well.

I purchase something such as a Rubbermaid storage tub. The deeper the better and it can be longer in length if you have multiple cats and need more room. I also like the type with the lock lids, but that is a personal preference. Then I cut a hole into the top of the storage tub. Place your litter inside and place where ever you would put your litter box. For the first time, gently put your cat through the hole on the lid so they know where to get in.

This works great. It reduces my scattered litter by 95%. And these tubs are usually cheaper than a good litter box. And you can get clear or even colored if you do not want to see through the box.
