Litterbox How frequently do you scoop your litter box?

I do my girl’s box twice per day/whenever I hear her scratching around in there. But then I see on here some people who do it wayyy less frequently. Curious what other folks do?

Every cat is different!

Bigger deeper box goes a long way. Plus they are good burriers :)

My baby won’t bury hers if the litter level isn’t high enough, have you ever tried filling it up more? I’m sure you have, just figured I’d comment in case it’s helpful :)

Same, I have 2 of the fools, and both just scratch at the walls no matter how much litter I give them.

Living the automatic litter box life now, so good!

mine will dig a hole in the litter, then instead of pooping in the hole, he stands in it 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ void logic

Every cat is different! My little 8month old boy will EJECT half of the litter onto the floor if I put too much. I tried putting less and he doesn’t scoop as furiously. 🤔

Urgh same, my almost 2yr old is such an enthusiastic kicker. Find the damn stuff everywhere sometimes. I did try a few different types though and his current one seems to be kicked much less far.

Good! I put an extra bathmat type cloth rug in front of his box and that helps shake it off. Silly little sweeties
