Cat Forum / General Topics / December 2004Litter Locker
Hi All, I rescued two new cats, so that was two more litter boxes... When I had just the one cat, I only had one litter box and he wasn't very picky about his litter, so I would just change out the whole thing once or twice a week. Now I have three cats - the two new ones are pickey about their litter, that could get very pricy. I tried to scoop for a couple days and bring it outside - but I could tell I would not keep it up - too much trouble. I got one of those litter lockers for $20 at Petsmart and I am really happy with it. No odor whatsoever. I don't mind scooping now because it is not much trouble. I also got clumping litter - that made it easier also. Anyhow, YMMV. -Jen This one..? http://www.petsmart.com/global/product_detail.jsp?PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=8455244417 80636&ASSORTMENT%3C%3East_id=2534374302023690&FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=253437430203 3742&bmUID=1102469764446 Or is there another model? I've been eyeing something like that but I wasn't sure if it would work.

'Cause it looks kind of intimidating.. LOL And of course, the cats were soo happy I brought them home a box to play in..

I quickly transfered it to another plastic bag and took to the outside rubbish bin. I have three cats by the way. The litter boxes are not in the bathroom, so flushing would be a real pain. My cats, too, were enamoured with the box. -Jen How long can you go between refills, generally? Mar --------- Vet Tech student > Yep, I have and it wasn't too bad.

I would recommend this to anyone,especially with 2 or more cats. I scoop out my 1 cat's box daily and if I had two, I would do it twice. > Hi All, > [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > > -Jen > I own a litter locker too and it definately makes scooping the cat box > easier with no odor in the house or the garbage can.

Where do you empty it? I got 5 cats, but I just flash number 2 down the toilet. I was scared the council might stop collecting rubbish here if I put it in the bin? > So what do you guys do when its full?

I bag it again, tie that bag in a knot at the top and put in the rubbish bin at the street. I have not had any complaints from the trash company. I used to put all the litter from the week in a bag and in the street bin. - This is an improvement! My litter boxes are not in the bathroom, it would be tricky to walk accross the house with cat poop - I not only have persian cats, I have persian carpets! (and I like both *grin*) -Jen Hi, I've had my LL for 6 months now and love it! The first time I had to replace the refills I had a bit of trouble, I couldn't get the plastic to come out. But now I make sure I start pulling out the plastic from where the notch is on the refill. I scoop however many times a day as necessary (spshully if Rex has a bowel movement - - gas mask time!), but only turn the handle once at night. Love it, love it! Shirley So sounds like you only have 1 cat? I'm wondering how long everything will last as I have 5.. Although, if I like this one enough, I'm thinking of getting 1 or 2 more for around the house so I don't have to drag this one around..
