How to Clean the Cat Litter Box?

If you have a cat, you know that your pet's litter box is one of the most important parts of their daily routine. And while they aren't as needy as dogs, it's still necessary to clean your kitty's box at least once a week to keep it sanitary and fresh.

To keep your cat's litter box clean, it's crucial that you remove any clumps of waste from the bottom and sides as soon as they form. You can do this by using a litter scoop with small and closely set holes.
Keeping the litter box cleaned helps prevent your cat from smelling like a wet noodle, which can discourage them from using the area again. And it also helps keep your home smelling fresh and clean.
Cleaning the litter box can be a messy job, but it's something that your cat really appreciates. And it's a good way to cut down on odors in your home, according to Dr. Ann Hohenhaus, DVM, of New York City's Animal Medical Center.
Scrubbing and rinsing with hot water is the easiest, safest way to clean your cat's box. Avoid any cleaning products that contain harsh chemicals, as they can be toxic to your cat.
Wear gloves and a dust mask when performing this task to protect your hands from the sand and gravel from the litter box, as well as airborne germs that might be floating in the air while you're scrubbing.
