Hide a Cat Litter Box - 5 Ways in Small Spaces to Live with a Cat

If you have downsized or simply have a small space by choice and also have an indoor cat or two, then sharing "facilities" can be difficult.

No one wants to see a used litter box especially first thing in the morning, so by hiding them, you not only give them privacy but you also stop the spread of litter and seeing it!

Using Cat Litter Box Furniture and Props Utilizes Space in the Best Possible Way!

1.  Bench


This bench can be used anywhere in the house, at the foyer, the entrance, the bathroom or even a bedroom.  It can be used to sit on and put your shoes on or whatever you want and the cat goes in the end.

2.  End Table


This end table simply fits in with the living room decor and your cat can still have privacy.  This counts as useful and a good use of space.

3.  Plant Pot



Add some whimsy and a green faux plant to your decor with a cat litter box in the pot base.  I thought this was a cute way to hide one especially in a small living room.






This is a lovely piece of furniture but it is totally equipped to house all of kitty's needs.  The litter box is in the bottom and when you open the cabinet doors there is a drawer that can hold all of the cat food and supplies.

You could feed your kitty on top of this furniture or use it as part of your house decor.

5.  Kitty Passage





If you don't like the idea of cat litter box furniture, then another option is to utilize a closet.  Add a kitty passage to the door so that your cat can come and go as he pleases without having to leave the door open.

This would also double as a way to eat his/her food without disruptions from a dog or other pets.  Many cats like to eat in private too.


This is an awesome way to have your indoor cat, and make both of you happy.  I love my 3 cats, but the only space right now I can place a box is in the hallway and I get to see it first thing in the morning, or stand in the gritty litter that has gone flying around.

So, I have been researching the above options, and I personally like the plant pot as I don't have much room for end tables or benches.  I also love the kitty passage as a way to feed them in a utility closet so that the dog doesn't eat their food!

Yes I have a zoo in my small space, so you have to get creative when it comes to living together in harmony!

Cat food or litter is not good for dogs, so hiding it stops the constant monitoring and is better for the health of your cats and dogs.

Cats Love Privacy

Most cats do not like to do their business in heavy traffic areas, but sometimes there is no choice other then in the middle of the kitchen or living areas, or even worse, the bathroom.  So investing or building your own cat furniture to hide the litter box just creates calm in the household!
