Is the product more effective placed on ground level or higher up around a cat litter box area?

I place fresh wave on the second step of the landing where my dogs food and water is. It works great, it does not smell like dog when you come in the back door.

I would never put it near my cats food or litter. Their noses are so sensitive to all smells and odors. To keep their litter always smelling fresh and clean, I use Arm and Hammer Litter Deodorizer - sprinkle that in and it is awesome. This fresh wave product is great for keeping the house smelling fresh and clean from cooking, smoke, etc.I put it on tables and shelves around my house and by the two entrances into my house. Hope this helps.

I don't use this product near our cat's litter box. Cats are not fond of strong odors near the box. Better to remove clumps so you or the cat detects only a clean scent. Mostly use Fresh Wave in closets, bathrooms and laundry room. Good product.

I think it works better higher up where it catches drafts. We put a container near where our dog sleeps on a three-foot-high bookshelf. When you walk by, you don't smell the dog.

Absolutely! They sell a foam insert that levels the area which I'd recommend if you're going to put a litterbox in there, otherwise the bottom is curved. I guess you could pile up some blankets though to level it out before putting a litter box in.

I think so- I actually have 2 - one upstairs and one downstairs. I also have 3 indoor adult cats and just recently added 3 kittens. I love this litter box because of the high sides limiting the amount of litter that ends up on the floor and the disposable urine liners. I only have to change the actual litter once every 3 to 4 weeks, as you still have to scoop the poop as needed. Cleanup is much less involved. Odor is limited as well. Multiple cats use the same litter box without incident.

I use Aquarium rocks in a two tier litter box. The top tier I drilled over 100 holes (1/2 in apart ). My cat initially wanted to use the old litter box but now he is using it. And I put Orange Dishwashing Liquid in the bottom to mask any urine odor. It does work.

I use Fresh Step and the sifter works well with that brand. None of the sifters is perfect and a cat with claws will find it tempting to rearrange so keep plenty of litter in the box.

Yes, the top lifts like a kids' toy box...hinges on the back edge and it stays up on it's own while you clean it. We caulked all of the interior seams because my cat 'misses' the interior pan sometimes, and a little carpet scrap tucked into the 'foyer' part of the box keeps the litter tracking down to nearly nothing. All the litter stays in the entry area and is easily vacuumed out with a hose. We really like it, it's not perfect, but it looks nice in our mudroom and is a handy place to sit and put on shoes...keeps the dog and toddler nieces out of the litter box, and the cat LOVES it!

The sides are actually pretty low. They're about the same as a normal non-scooping litterbox -- maybe somewhere between a standard and x-large one. It's taller right at the front because of the plastic shield thingy that keeps the litter from falling out the front when it scoops. I have never used the ramp on mine, it is more hassle than useful. ;)

it doesn't aim down like a ramp. but it does stick out kind of like a pour spout. it is rounded but it angles up. it is lower than i would prefer and i worried about my cats peeing over the top but they haven't. sometimes when they get out of the box and dig to cover what they've done the litter they dig back towards themselves has come perilously close to flying out of the box but it hasn't come out yet.

The tray is only about an inch high. It is not very deep to put kitty litter in, if that is what you are thinking. My cats try to dig to bury my dogs urine spots on the pads, putting wholes in them. I hope this helps, best of luck to you.

It seems very low dust to me. It also controls odor better than any litter I've ever used, and I think that's due, at least in part, to the fact that the odor doesn't get dispersed through flying dust.

I prefer clumping, it is easier to clean from the box, leaving remaining unused in the box. would recommend Tidy cat.

It's shipped flat and would be fine protecting a carpet under a litter box...But it does have the jutting end for rolling chairs under a desk. It wasn't very strong holding me on a chair, but fine for a litter box!

I had the older version of this pail and used LitterMaid Carbon Filters (for kitty litter boxes) and stuck them to the top where the suggested deodorizer belongs. I feel like it helped eliminate odor, along with washing out with OxiClean and Lysol regularly.

It helps tremendously on dust but only fair on containing smell. The confinement of the product makes it mandatory to keep the pan very clean. However, the cat and I love it because it contains the litter so well. With a mat outside the entry there is no longer any litter pellets around the floor. If a number were to be given as far as containing smell it would probably be 5 out of 10.

We went with a covered (separate top and bottom that locks together) litter box. Most cats enjoy gravel "flinging" and we got tired of daily hand-vac cleanup. The taller sided litter box fits in the bottom of this very nicely. Much less effort on cleanup.

Honestly, I got it to remove allergens. I have a cat too and have noticed a less musty smell. The unit is located about 10 feet from the litter box.

That would depend on several things. We use what's denominated as a "large" litter pan. Underneath it, we have textured liner (specifically sold to go under a litter pan) that both collects litter that spills and keeps the litter pan from shifting. We push the pan up against the end with the entrance to the box. There's an inch or so clearance along the long sides of the box and three to four inches clearance on the end opposite the entrance, where I keep the litter scoop. We have the internal divider up and keep supplies on the other side of it. Assuming a set-up like ours, if a cat "misses," you could very easily pull out the pan (and the liner) and clean up as necessary. You'd have to squat down and reach in to do it, but there's plenty of room to do that easily, assuming average physical ability. You could reduce the space inside by using a larger pan, but that would probably end up getting more of the mess on the walls than on the liner. Using a smaller box would most likely keep more of the mess on the liner. But the doors open up the entire length of the box, so clean up is very straightforward.
