Van Ness Pets Odor Control Extra Large, Giant Enclosed Cat Pan with Odor Door, Hooded, Blue, CP7

Best purchase of my life! My Willow is a messy Marvin and slung litter all over the house but now it’s minimal I never smell it or anything! I have had mine for a few years now it’s held up great! Just don’t pick it up by the handle but it’s obvious that won’t work but just pick it up where the bottom and top connect and you have no problem! My mom even got her one

Very thin plastic, but it has kept my kitties from urinating outside the edge of the litter pan. 👍

We bought this box when our old one was getting too worn in the bottom to even clean thoroughly. It was the same brand (Van Ness), and we were happy with the quality of our old box, so looked for a new one by the same company.First off, this is a very big box. Ask the bruise on my shin, as it took me a while to remember there was a larger box in the hallway! LOL Our two cats share a box, and this thing is really truly big. There is plenty of roomfor our cats to stand up, turn around, lean, write their memoirs or read a magazine while in there.I'll post photos of our 17.5-pound cat exploring it before we filled it up.For the first batch, I filled it with half of their current batch of litter (meaning the one in the old box,with some crumbs of yesterday's business) and half new to get them used to it.We did NOT use the swinging door, both because of our box's location (in a small hallway next toa bedroom door - we have a small place), and because our big cat is skittish of thingstouching him. We think he'd freak out if the door swung back on his fur, and he might notuse the box again. I kept the door, but really doubt we'll use it.The translucent isn't as bad as I thought. By that, I mean I thought we might have to seeeveryone doing their business, as well as what business they did, because of the transparency.As it turns out, the main thin you see is a shadow in the box, and the litter level. That's about it.I think both cats enjoy the extra room, because even our bigger cat can stand up if he wants to withouta problem. The entrance is higher than our old box (which sloped down a little). This might be a problemif you have a cat with limited mobility, but for now, it isn't a problem for either of our cats, aged5 and 6. I like the higher entrance, because we have a LOT less litter being kicked out now. It's a win-win.Now, I know this isn't the place to review sellers, but I have to mention that if you buy this fromPetCareRX, be prepared to not only wait awhile for the box, but cross your fingers on the condition itarrives in. Amazon has spoiled me to expect great customer service and careful packaging. I forget sometimesthat that is not the standard for all sellers. Our box arrived in really bad shape. The one piece of tapeat the top was mostly popped off. One hinge was missing entirely. It wasn't a huge problem for us, but ifit was in a place where locking the lid was essential, we would have had a problem. It was really surprisingto see how carelessly this item was packaged and shipped. Shame on our seller...not that I did not ding any starsbased on the seller.but, Van Ness makes a great cat box! I did ding them one star because of the iffy quality of the plastic.This is MUCH MUCH thinner plastic than our last box. Our other one, you could lift thebottom even if it was full of litter and a cat. This one bends easily, and would never hold up to beingpicked up with litter in it. It isn't flimsy, per se, but isn't the same thick box we previously had.I would never try to pick up the box with litter in it. I was actually surprised by how thin the plastic was,given the price tag for it. I kept our old one for an extra week, in case this one died right away. So far,despite feeling extremely thin, it has held up to the cats jumping and scratching without a problem.I'd doubt we get the long life we got from our last litter box, but so far, we've had less mess at the litterbox location, both cats are using it without any problems at all, and it seems easier to clean. (We do justlift the lid off the box and scoop from there.) It might simply be that our old one had become scratched andpitted from use and old age, and this one is still nice and smooth.Either way, we are glad we got this size, and I was happy to see that we got a similar color as in the listing.

My owner is off the computer for the moment, so let me use this opportunity to tell you about the Pureness Giant Translucent Litter Box. In short, we cats love this box! My name is Nemo, and I am the oldest ( male age 5 years) of three cats living in the household. My sisters are age three and ten months-Boy, is the kitten a handful...Anyway, perhaps there are some other felines out there who take an interest in pet supplies ordered by their owners. As you know, most of us can urinate just about anywhere we chose - carpet, bedding, etc. Most of us prefer to use clean boxes. I'm not sure the owners understand when we do not use the appointed litter box, we are usually trying to make a statement- Oftentimes, we just want to point out the box needs cleaning or we have an illness which needs human attention - Then again, sometimes we just don't feel like using a box.Well, the new kitten had such an episode the other day. Feeling the immediate need to relieve herself, she did so on the bed-Humans are so prone to outbursts, & this was no exception. I thought we were going to be rid of the young pest, but the owners relented & just decided to get a second litter box. Guess they thought one of us was using the first box when the little monster kitty felt the urge to go.My owner is so uptight, she spent five hours researching litter boxes online-Even made us sit at the computer to ask our opinion-Like we'd actually tell her- Anyway, this box arrived super fast & was well packed. Boy, have we ever had fun with all the packing material. Anyway, the lid fits well. Owners removed the front door flap since it got in our way. I waited for my sisters to use it first in case something was amiss. I tried it out just this morning & like it. One of the best features is the translucent, smoke gray color. It allows you to see other kitties lying in wait outside the box. My sisters love a practical joke and are always poised to attack just outside the box. Whatever happened to quietly reading "Cat Fancy" while doing your business?The handle is sturdy-I should mention that, due to my allergies, my doctor vet suggested we use shredded newspaper rather than perfumed & dusty litter. Using newspaper means there is no extra strain or weight put on the handle or other parts. As to odor control, which seems to be a big issue with the humans, we don't find a problem with this box. Using newspaper as litter does not offer the same odor control as regular litter, so our owners (you know, the uptight one) change the contents two to four times per day. Of course, every time the paper is changed, we like to pee again, but the humans need more exercise & stuff to do, so this works out fine for us cats.The owners really seem to like the locking features between the lid & bottom. Our other box is one of those large domed, round Booda styles without lock features in the lid. I was able to raise the lid with my back, pee outside the box, & set the lid back in place. It always made a nice April Fool's Day joke, anytime of the year. Well, you know humans, they had to go with a locking lid.By the way, if your owners are upset when urine pools around or underneath the litter box, we have some suggestions. So many people seem to use mats or carpets underneath a box-This doesn't alleviate the problem. Our owners use plastic trays under the box and then put plastic carpet runners under the trays. The tray catches any leakage - The Pureness Box does not seem to leak, but just thought I'd mention it in case it's an issue with your humans.The dimensions given for the box are accurate - My owner was considering the smaller model, but due to my length & nine pound, fine body, the larger model was ordered. The price was reasonable & there's money left over for new toys - I'd prefer a cage for the monster kitten, but sometimes it's best to let the owners think they are in charge.Hope you all enjoy this box as much as we do. Remember, always keep the owners guessing what you'll do next - They listen to you better that way.
