it sure does! when i found this litterbox, i was sad that it was so pricey, but was at my wit's end with a high peeing cat. this has been the best thing i've purchased in a long time. not a single leak to report. you could easily 'make' a comparable solution, but i didn't want to bother. without a doubt, this is a worthy purchase.

Yes it does solve the leaking problem on 3 sides and it is beautifully designed. Unfortunately the box is too small for my large framed maine coon cats (14 & 16 pounds) and so I'm revisiting the Catit Jumbo Hooded Cat Litter Box which also has a flip door that takes care of the 4th side. I originally didn't go with this box because the door is positioned very high for older cats. Hope this helps-

This litter box was the answer for my "stand up while peeing" cat! No more accidents ...unless the butt hangs out of the opening, but that honestly does not happen that often! It's a great litter box!

Some litter does come out just b/c the cats do come in to contact with the litter so it will happen like any other litterbox.

I'm not sure... if you can figure out how to install a higher side on the inside of the litter box (maybe some thin plastic and some e6000 glue), that would be the solution... but if it's not a feasible alternative, maybe this is a bad litter box for your cat. Which is too bad, because we STILL love it. :) I hope you find a solution!!!

No, not that I've noticed. Recommend taking your kitten to vet to be evaluated and urine checked. --CL (physician and cat lover)

Hi Mary May work. One thing though. The front lip is low so ferrets can back in. That's the way they do it. Funny to watch. They don't bury like cats so spillover isn't an issue (except when the litter is new and they decide it's fun to play in the litter). With cats, you may end up with litter spill out the front. Also, they may outgrow it soon.

I have this litter box inside of the cat washroom/end table and so far, they have not peed over the top. The male usually peed up to the top of a covered box I had but he seems to keep it inside this one so far. It might be that having the litter box inside another "box" helps him to keep it down a little. :-)

That is an issue and I don't know the answer. We have seen another cat use it, but then our little colony seems to reclaim it.

I'm not sure, do you have more than one cat if so do you have more than one box? How often are you cleaning the box? Some cats don't/won't use a litter box that has anything in it which means cleaning it after every visit.Did you bring in another cat and she is acting out? It could also be a health issue, bladder infection maybe? Have you tried moving the box to a different location?

It has a ball bearing at the end of the tubing. The dog (or cat) needs to put their tongue on the ball to get the water. We haven't experienced any leaking since making sure it was assembled tightly.

Nope. I used to have some issues with the smaller size, but I haven't had any with the current issue. This is maybe the third I've had. They do sometimes wear out and the plunger on the water vat on my last broke. I tried to glue it but after it broke again I replaced the whole unit. I'm very happy with the larger size and my two large cats are too. It doesn't seem to require cleaning as soon as the smaller one did.

No, I haven't had that problem. The bubble is higher than where the fecal/urine matter is expelled. I have 2 cats, a male and a female, both over 15 pounds and I haven't had the problem in the 1 year plus that I've had this litter box.

From what I've seen, yes. We have a total of 8 cats in the house, three that are kept in separate parts of the house. We also have a fairly decent sized feral cat colony that lives around us, and marks around outside, which is what is causing the cats to urinate/spray in the house I believe. We have gone from 2 or 3 of the cats urinating in the house at least once or twice a week, to the rare occasion per month now.

No leaks with mine. You'd think it would overflow onto the floor as water comes down the slide, but I haven't had any such issues. But, yes, be prepared for the cat to splash a bit at first as it explores this new item!

Yes. The door pops right off. My cats refused to use it with the door on it. One of them actually peed in my shoe until I took it off lol.

As of right now, I still think they don't like to drink from it... I heard a report (from my wife) that she saw one of the two cats drinking from it, but I have not been able to verify this myself. I have filled it up with water twice because it went below the fill line, but I'm not sure if that is due to cats drinking the water or evaporation.

After my cat became completely trained, I always leave the seat up, so he stands on the rim. Cats assume two distinct postures, depending on which function they're performing. When urinating, they tuck down into the bowl and take careful aim. I think cats like hearing the "tinkling" sound, confirming they're right on target!

So, I was able to finally get my cat to use the red stage only for pooping. I found out in the process that she stands when she pees and doesn't squat. I should have known that from seeing the inside markings of her litter box. She continued with that same habit with the Litter Kwitter, so I had to just stop using it.
