You may not even realize it, but one of the main reasons for a cat's "uncleanliness" is an incorrectly selected litter box.

What requirements should a cat litter box meet?

1 If you want to avoid annoying mistakes, when choosing a litter box, make sure that the cat can sit in it and stretch its tail to its full length.

2. When choosing a location for the tray, keep in mind that the door to the room in which it will be located should be constantly open.

As an option, make a special hole in the door that your pet can use if necessary.

3. The idea that cats prefer secluded places to do their business is just a myth.

Therefore, you should not hide the tray under a cabinet, behind a wall, or at the other end of the room behind a mountain of things.

4. Don't forget to clean it regularly. It's unlikely that a clean cat will use a dirty litter box.

5. If your apartment has more than three rooms or your house has two or more floors, consider purchasing an additional toilet.
