    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).

    RIP Dusty July 2 2007 RIP Sabrina June 16 2011 RIP Jack July 2 2013 RIP Bear July 5 2016 RIP Pooky June 23 2018. RIP Josh July 6 2019 RIP Cami January 6 2022

    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.
    Blessings,
    Mary

    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.
