Open or covered litter box?

[Taz_Zoee]

Morgan has an open litter box. He digs and arranges every piece of litter. I have thought about getting a covered one, but he hates his feet in the litter. He stands on the edge with three feet and has only one in the litter while doing his business. I've been afraid he wouldn't like or use a covered box because of this quirk.

Hee hee, that is pretty funny. I'd like to see a picture of that. Sorry Morgan. *snicker*

Cindy, yes it can cause issues for kittens to have a covered box. I have about 6 covered, and 7 uncovered.

And they say not to use clumping, because if a kitten eats it, it will turn into "cement" in the tummy and can cause blockages.

If she has never been a litter eater, it should be ok!

Every baby kitten I have had/fostered (3-8 weeks old) have been litter munchers

At this point, I wouldn't change a thing! If it was going to cause trouble, you'd have seen signs of something by now.

Chill out, enjoy kittenhood, and if you need something to do, take photos for all of us on PT!
