Cat Tree Furniture

Tired of the unsightly litter box sitting where family and friends can see it?  How about those embarrassing litter box odors that you can smell on warm humid days?  And there is nothing very attractive about kitty doing her business right in the front of company.

Kitty Kabinet

Now you have the option of hiding all of that inside cat litter furniture.  The Kitty Kabinet hides the litter box in a beautiful piece of cat furniture made of all natural wood.  The Kitty Kabinet traps odors associated with the litter box until you have the opportunity to eliminate the source.  And the Kitty Kabinet provides kitty some privacy for those moments when nature calls.

The Kitty Kabinet comes in two styles:  Traditional and Shaker.  We can make it in one of three different woods:  Pine, Maple or Oak.  And you can stain it yourself, or we can stain it in one of three choices – Natural, Candlelite or Java.

There are also three optional pieces that you can add to your base Kitty Kabinet to increase its functionality and beauty.  There is a drawer unit that can be used to hide accessories like your cat brush, scoop, litter mat, litter bags and deodorizers.  There is an optional shelf, which is just open storage for accessories.  And then there is the Cubby.  The Cubby is a closed storage unit, and its larger, to fit things like the bag of litter, cat food, books, etc.  With your choice of one, two or three of the optional pieces you can configure your Kitty Kabinet exactly the way you want it.

Where did the cat litter box go?  Family and friends will be asking that question once you’ve hidden your cats’ litter box inside the Kitty Kabinet.

Kitty Kabinet with Shelf

This beautiful piece of natural wood cat furniture is designed to hide the litter box in the lower unit and allow your cat access via a flapper door on the side.  The lower unit is large enough to place the litter box inside and still provide “landing space” for the litter to come off your cats’ paws before it reenters your living area and tracks litter in the home.

The Kitty Kabinet can be made out of three different woods; pine, oak or maple, and can be left unstained so you can save some money by doing that yourself.  Or you can have us stain the unit in a Natural, Java or Candelite color.

There are three optional modules that can be added for more functionality.  You can add a Cubby, which gives you more out-of-sight storage for larger things like cat food or bags of litter.  An option can be a drawer to keep smaller things out of site like brushes and toys.  Or you can add the shelf option which is simply open storage allowing quick access to things like scoops or literature.  You don’t have to configure the Kitty Kabinet the way you ultimately want it to be as the optional modules can be added anytime in the future.

So, if you would like to get that ugly cat litter box out of sight now may be the time to order  your
Kitty Kabinet Litter Box Enclosure.

Now you can have a beautiful piece of furniture for your home and hide the unsightly litter box at the same time.

Shaker Kabinet with shelf

We build our kitty kabinets so that a litterbox will fit inside the lower unit.  Your  cat has access to the litterbox through a flapper door on the side of the unit.  The units are nearly airtight, so they not only hide the unsightly mess and stop the tracking of litter, but they trap any unpleasant odor as well.

The Kitty Kabinet is a great “space saver” for people living in apartments or condominiums.  Often it is difficult to find a convenient spot for a litter box in a smaller home with no basement or utility room.  They wind up in bedrooms, dens, closets, etc.  With the Kitty Kabinet, the litter box can hide in plain sight right in your living area.

All our cat furniture is made in the U. S. using natural wood – you have your choice of pine, oak or maple.  You also have the option of having us stain the unit in one of three different colors so you can match your decor.

Hide the Litter Box

In just about every national cat publication you can find at least one article written on cat litter, litter boxes or problems getting cats to use them.

If you think about the shear numbers for a moment you will get some idea as to why this is such an ongoing hot topic:  1) There are 90 million cats in the U.S.  2) 40% of U.S. households own a cat, and the average is 2.3 cats per household.  3) The annual cat litter market is estimated to be a $1.5 billion dollar market.  And 4) The majority of cat owners say the most irritating aspect of owning a cat is a dirty, smelly litter box.

We can’t help you clean your litter box, but we can help you control the odor.  Our Kitty Kabinet is a beautiful piece of fine furniture that just about anyone would love to own, and unbeknown to your guests it hides the unsightly litter box.  Its nearly airtight construction keeps the odor inside until you are able to clean the litter box.  It is also large enough to provide a “landing area” just inside the flapper door where any litter caught on your cats’ feet will be removed before the cat reenters the family living area.

The Kitty Kabinet starts with the base unit, which in itself is a beautiful piece of cat furniture.  There are three optional modules you can add to the base to configure your Kitty Kabinet to fit your need for additional storage space.

These units are ideal for apartment or condo living where space is at a premium.  So begin now to check out the many options available to you in style, color, and configuration.

A recent national survey of cat owners found that more than half thought the worst of all pet odors was that that comes from a litterbox.  More than 50% of cat households have more than one cat, so its not surprising that they reported more odor related problems.

91% of all respondents said a fresh smelling home is important and the vast majority took measures to enhance the freshness of their homes.  So how do they do that?
- 60% use air fresheners
- 52% leave the windows open
- 45% report using an odor eliminator not specifically made for pet odors

What is the best way to eliminate odor?
The best way is the one that works for you.  But in case you haven’t found it yet, experts do agree the best

Hide the litterbox

way to keep your home smelling fresh is to use products that are designed to eliminate pet odors.  It is also important to do some preventative work; and that is, keep the litterbox clean.  If you clean the litterbox regularly and use odor eliminating products designed to get rid of the odor, rather than mask them, friends and relatives will not detect any foul smell emanating from your litterbox.

We all know that’s a tall order and sometimes we wish we had a little reprieve.  A possible solution is a piece of cat furniture designed to hide the litter box.  If you are diligent in keeping it clean and using odor eliminating products the fact that you can hide the litterbox will prevent any odor that builds up between cleanings from escaping.

You have to admit … the litterbox is not a very pleasant thing to have to look at all the time.  If you live in a small apartment or condo you may not have a choice of tucking it away in the spare bedroom, out of sight of family and friends, because there simply isn’t a spare bedroom.

There is an affordable option if you would like to hide the litterbox.  And that is to place it inside a Kitty Kabinet.  A Kitty Kabinet is a beautiful piece of natural wood cat furniture for your home that is constructed so that you can place a litterbox in it and family and friends will not know it is there.  The litterbox is nearly air tight in its construction to keep odors in, and has a flapper door on the side for easy access in and out by your cat.

Kitty Kabinets are made from three different types of wood: Oak, Maple or Pine.  And you have the option of three different finish colors: Natural, a warm reddish brown Candelite, or a stylish dark Java.  You could also order one “unfinished” and stain it yourself.

So stop looking at that unsightly litterbox and order your Kitty Kabinet today.  We can have it built, stained and shipped to you within 14 days.

Cat Cabinet with two optional units

The modular design of some cat cabinets give you the freedom to design a unit to better fit your particular needs.  All cat cabinets begin with a base unit; it is in this unit that the litter box is tucked away out of sight of friends and family.  If you have limited space the cat cabinet allows you to hide the litter box in the middle of your living area in a piece of fine furniture that can match your decor.

Optional units can add to the functionality of the cat furniture by providing additional storage space for things like scoops, bags, treats and litter.  Another consideration for adding optional units is that it raises the height of the furniture, and if you were to put a cat bed on the very top you can create a highly favored spot for your cat to rest, sleep or just observe his or her environment.
