    I have 2 covered and 6 uncovered litter boxes. I used to only have covered but then Starr was refusing to use them because he felt too claustrophobic in them and I also think that one of his siblings was scaring him. My cats seem to now prefer the uncovered which is fine with me because Sunny makes a big mess when he pees in the covered litter box. He sprays on the cover and it then goes in between the box and the cover and it takes more time to clean this up.

    Just in case they would happen to spray over the uncovered boxes or stick their butts over the edge, I've been putting puppy training pads around all of my litter boxes and it's helped a lot. I sounds like Paizly is just fine using a covered litter box with the clumping litter. I'm looking forward to seeing some new pictures of her.

    I've always used a covered litterbox for Eve and she's fine with it. Of course she is very small and can dance around in there quite well Occasionally she has her little butt facing out the front of the box and consequently the litter flies because she has to dig the biggest hole ever !! and then cover it with a mountain

    She's a girl - what can I say
