If you’re away for some time, leave enough space for your cat to take out waste. Common litter boxes need cleaning and scooping every 1-2 days, and leaving some clumps in the box for too long may lead to a foul odor— which may turn off the cat. This will be stressful to your cat, not to mention there’ll be quite a smell to welcome you back home.
You may provide another litter box, but it’ll require more scooping when you’re back. With that, consider buying self-cleaning boxes that automatically eliminate poops, fluid, and odor. Not only is it favorable to the cat but also to you.
If you have an older cat and will be away for 2 days or more, smart litter boxes may be necessary. Aside from self-cleaning, smart boxes are also connected to your phone, helping you monitor your kitty’s potty habits 24/7— which alerts you of any health issue.
Persistent litter box issues should warrant an appointment with your veterinary hospital Louisville, KY to make sure that your pet’s behavior is not caused by an underlying health issue.
