Have you set up only one litter box for your furry four-legged friend?

Don't skimp and buy at least one more of these containers.

“Why does a cat need two litter boxes at once?” you will probably ask.

The answer is simple: having two cat litter boxes in an apartment will make life easier for both the pet and its owner.

The cat has 2 litter boxes: what does this give

Firstly, the risk that the furry friend will relieve himself in the “wrong” place is reduced.

If the filler in one tray is already used up, the cat may no longer want to go to the toilet in that place. In such a situation, an additional tray will be very useful.

Secondly, the owner will be able to safely leave the four-legged friend alone in the apartment for 1-2 days: the trays and fillers poured into them should be enough for this period.

What to do if there are several cats living in the apartment

Remember this simple formula: "Number of litter boxes = number of cats + 1."

In other words, there should be more containers than fluffies.

For example, there are three cats in the house. This means that there should be four litter boxes. And that's the minimum.

Compliance with the above condition reduces the likelihood of very serious problems arising.
