That litter box looks tiny or these are some very large tiles. Either way it's probably worth getting a covered litter box, no more sand everywhere

If we get a covered box, the entrance will probably be too high, again. My elderly, female cat has trouble getting into it. She will start pooping on the floor.

Just FYI, it was a “large litter box” as the sticker says on the side. Maybe I should look into a small, plastic, kiddie pool and fill it with litter instead.

If money were no object: https://a.co/d/fvO9Zn4 Imagine your picky pet dropping a deuce in this bad boy.

Poor sweetie is doing the best she can, pooping in the box and THOROUGHLY burying it! My old cat did that until the day she died. But our present cat is unclear on the concept; she scratches at the plastic edge and in the air, then walks away with the poop still proudly and aromatically perched atop the undisturbed litter. It's a tradeoff.

A kitty pool, if you will.

😆 I love it!

The big triangle shaped corner litter boxes can help a bit. I think the last one we had was branded Natures Miracle. Sorry your boy’s doing poorly, that sucks :-|

Thanks. I’ll look into those. I had considered a box with a cover, but I think it would scare him.

I hate pooping in the dark :-) I think one of the other comments probably tracks a bit more, good cats have an instinct to burry it and then scratch up the whole area so it’s less obvious they hid something.

Honestly crocodile box isn’t far off either. The bigger the box, the less chance anything winds up outside. Every time we got a bigger box it made cleanup a bit easier, the corner box fit the bill and has 2 high sides so no pee hits the wall :-)

Hopefully your boy feels better soon.
