Where do you keep your litter box?

[mruffruff]

I have 6 litter boxes in a special shed in the outside pen. Four more in the cat room and one in the den fireplace. And still someone has to pee on the livingroom curtains!!

I keep 3 in the family room in the basement and 2 in the main laundry
area, also in the basement. Doorways to the downstairs are blocked to keep
the dogs from tippy toeing downstairs for "snacks". I also keep 3 in the garage
for my 2 feral kitties.

I have 1 and it's in the kitchen.

Isn't that frustrating, Lizbud? I just brought in 2 more new litterboxes and someone had to show their displeasure by pooping outside the box. Nice. Wish they could talk. Well, on the other hand, maybe I don't.

By the 'golden sandbox rule', I'm a few sandboxes short.

Golden Sandbox Rule = One sandbox per cat + one extra, and one on every level of your home.

I have 8 cats and 6 sandboxes. The only 'accidents' I have is occasionally Jack will poop outside the box because he has constipation problems. We have been treating him, but 1-2 times a week he'll use the floor in front of the box. Bear & Cami will occasionally overspray the sides of the litterbox, but at least they are IN the box when they do it, never do that outside the box.

I have:

2 Extra large covered sandboxes in my rarely used foyer (downstairs).
1 Extra large covered sandbox in the spare room (upstairs).
1 Extra large covered and 2 Extra large uncovered sandboxes in our bedroom (upstairs).

I have one per cat plus one. But I will not put one on every level of my house. They're so used to going in the basement that it isn't a problem. I just can't have them in eating areas. I just can't. I know that Specs is occasionally a behavior problem but w/Clomicalm, that's all history now. I just cannot look at litterboxes all over the house, esp. when people come for dinner, which is often. I entertain a lot. As I've said before, this is our house but my rules. And my rule is that they go to the litterboxes in the basement. I realize some of us don't have that option due to space restraints but fortunately, that isn't an issue for me.

We have a large laundry room where we have 2 boxes for 3 kitties I know....not the "rule" but for now it works.

We keep ours in the back bathroom. My parents have two in their basement.

Its more like where do I not have a litter box.. Lets see = 1 in back bathroom, 2 in back bedroom, 7 in front bedroom in a neat row & last one under/behind TV stand.. Well that wore me out..

We also have 2 for 3 kitties. Our house is fairly small, and our 3 don't seem to mind. That's really all we have space for.

Not sure what you mean. Isn't what frustrating? If you mean the dog's
habits, not really. I decided this habit can't be changed, I just don't give
them access to temptation.

I think I was probably having a blonde moment. I meant the comment for Catlady.
