Do-it-yourself closed toilet for a cat: how to hide the tray

Cat owners know perfectly well that they cannot do without a tray. Did you know that cat litter doesn’t have to be an eyesore? A hidden litter box is just what you need to make you and your furry friend happy!

The main thing is to choose the right place. If your cat’s litter box is in a less-than-ideal spot, as VetStreet points out, she may start to “walk the wrong way,” which is bad for everyone. Ideally, the litter box should be tucked away in a secluded, quiet corner and never near her food or water. Make one of these fun litter boxes to give your pet some privacy. And for you, it will be a nice decoration for your home.

What you need

  • White cardboard exhibition stand with three sections.
  • The fabric is light or medium weight.
  • Hot glue gun and glue sticks.

How to do it

  1. Lay the fabric face down on a flat surface (the piece should be larger than the stand).
  2. Lay the stand face down in the middle of the fabric.
  3. Wrap excess fabric around the sides and corners of the stand as if you were wrapping a gift.
  4. Tape all four corners around the edges of the stand. Press and hold for one to two minutes to allow the fabric to adhere.

When choosing a fabric, choose one that is easy to clean, not too heavy, and not too thin. An inexpensive tablecloth works well, or you can buy a fabric that matches your curtains.

  • Wooden bar.
  • The fabric is light or medium weight.
  • Felt pads for furniture legs.
  • Hot glue gun and glue sticks.

How to do it

  1. Choose a small structural space: the bottom of a closet, the bottom shelf of a built-in bookcase, or the nook between a wall and a heavy piece of built-in furniture.
  2. Cut a piece of wood rod so that it fits snugly between the two areas. Glue a felt pad to each end of the rod.
  3. Measure out a piece of fabric so that when it hangs on the rod, there is about 8 cm between its edge and the floor and the cat can safely enter and exit.
  4. Glue the fabric to the rod. Press and hold for one to two minutes to allow the fabric to adhere.
  5. Hang a curtain rod in a corner.

You can also use a curtain tension rod and a hinged curtain.

1. Place three vertical pieces of foam board side by side on a flat surface, 2 cm apart. 2. Cut a piece measuring 30 cm by 3 cm from the bottom of each panel, leaving two “legs” 5 cm wide at the bottom. 3. On the middle panel we will make a door, for this, make a vertical cut 40 cm long in the middle between the two legs at the bottom. 4. From the 40 cm notch, make a 30 cm horizontal cut. 5. Turn the middle panel over and make a 40 cm vertical cut where the door “hinge” will be, but do not cut all the way through. 6. Make wall joints by cutting four strips of cardboard (7,5 cm x 3 cm). Glue strips at the bottom and top of each panel to connect the panels. 7. When the glue is dry, place three panels to make a booth. 8. The door should be ajar so that your cat has free access to the tray. 9. Use a black marker to highlight the legs, draw on a doorknob, or add some graffiti!

This design accommodates any size tray and is easy to clean.
