When we moved into our new house a few years ago we decided to keep the litter boxes in the basement. The basement was unfinished and we rarely used it so it was a good spot for the litter boxes.

Unfortunately, since then, we’ve had some serious litter box problems to deal with. There were regular accidents out of the box, for unknown reasons, and entire messes to deal with. With an unfinished basement we didn’t handle the problem as well as we should have so it got terribly out of control. At times it felt like the entire basement was the litter box.

Here are some simple tips to help you prevent and or eliminate any problems you may be having with your cat and their litter box.

1. Keep your cat healthy. A cat’s health problems can lead to cat litter box problems.
2. Place your cat litter box in a quite area. Cats don’t like loud noises at anytime, especially when using their litter box. Be sure not too hide it away were you’ll forget about it. Make sure you keep it in a visible spot where you’ll remember to clean it regularly.
