If you talk to any cat behaviorist, they’ll tell you that cats much prefer a litter box with a view πŸ‘€

  3. @Kashmere402 on February 5, 2025 at 9:38 pm

    Not true

  4. @KymoraG on February 5, 2025 at 9:38 pm

    useless crap. You will spend less on a clear rubber made tote.

    PSA:I don’t want a $200 litter box

  6. @ddneq677 on February 5, 2025 at 9:40 pm

    Too bad lol. After watching my cat hang her butt over the edge of an open litter box and poo on the floor, the deal was sealed πŸ˜‚. She doesnt seem to mind a hooded litter box. This one does look a little more convenient to clean though while also limiting the mess.

  7. @saturngamer1997 on February 5, 2025 at 9:44 pm

    3 cats here, and all 3 use the enclosed litter box..
    I was worried at first… Bye the way each cat has itΒ΄s own litter box.

  8. @michelle-zd2nc on February 5, 2025 at 9:44 pm

    I usually try to take my cat outdoors to potty. I stay out with him though, for safety.

  9. @DyLemmaOG on February 5, 2025 at 9:45 pm

    True. I’m finding out my cats hate enclosed litter boxes. They were fine before and then I started putting the hood on and they now poop and piss on the damn floor sometimes and nothing has fixed that for a month. Going to take the hood back off because they don’t seem to like it at all.

  10. @Forgetdaoldme on February 5, 2025 at 9:46 pm

    This is great my neighbor is a predator, she should feel safer now!!

  11. @redlocculturetalk on February 5, 2025 at 9:46 pm

    dude we get a closed litter box cuz we have dogs , kids or we simply don’t want to smell poop all day with an open litter box πŸ˜‚

  12. @elainamiller on February 5, 2025 at 9:46 pm

    Just do what works specially for your cat.

  13. @amsdetailing on February 5, 2025 at 9:46 pm

    I just spoke with my cat and he said he doesn’t mind it

  14. @Kph1981 on February 5, 2025 at 9:47 pm

    The truth is u want to sell theses πŸ˜‚

  15. @Mamamancs on February 5, 2025 at 9:50 pm

    Where to buy ?

  16. @KinnyWhoo on February 5, 2025 at 9:50 pm

    I want them to be comfortable, but I ain’t paying 200 dollars for a litter box… I’m a 13 yr old who wants to buy an indoor cat but my parents are making me pay for it since I want it. SO I CANT BE DROPPING 200$ WHEN IM BROKE BUT WANT A CAT 😭

  17. @RavenousYears on February 5, 2025 at 9:53 pm

    Bro, my cat won’t shit in a box that’s open, but he loves his enclosed litter box

  18. @rammtastic on February 5, 2025 at 9:54 pm

    Yeah, I’m gonna call b.s. on this one. It truly depends on the cat. They will go in either one.

  19. @03Ava on February 5, 2025 at 9:55 pm

    How does this stop the smell

  20. @danielleelias9133 on February 5, 2025 at 9:57 pm

    Probably $300 for a open litter box so they can still get litter everywhere

  21. @Pudnite on February 5, 2025 at 9:59 pm

    I really do not care

  22. @coastalcoyote on February 5, 2025 at 9:59 pm

    My problem is dogs getting into the litter box. I live in a one bedroom apartment, and there are no spaces I can put litterboxes that the dogs can’t get to. I am going to try to make something like a furniture piece to put the litterbox in, but with mesh or possibly acrylic sides. I don’t care about seeing a litterbox; I just don’t want my dogs to be able to get into it. There don’t seem to be any good solutions for that other than making sure the dog can’t get into the litterbox room, which isn’t always possible for people.

  23. @saskialolita on February 5, 2025 at 10:01 pm

    Glad to finally see someone speaking the truth about enclosed/covered litter boxes!

  24. @Forgetdaoldme on February 5, 2025 at 10:01 pm

    Fell in love wit my cat cus his eyes.

    Falling out of love wit my cat cus his litter box stinks..

    Better than a dog tho, I’d have to take outside and pick his poop up wit a bag over my hand..

    Considered a bird but don’t want the noise.

    Fish are boring.

    You ever had a lizard?

    Would you like a cat wit pretty eyes? πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

  25. @AllLiesAndCableTies on February 5, 2025 at 10:02 pm

    Ok, you sound like you’re selling a… oh wait you are

  26. @DaytonGresham on February 5, 2025 at 10:05 pm

    Safe from what bruh we in an apartment not a jungle

  27. @Henrylovesyou on February 5, 2025 at 10:06 pm

    As long as they pee on the walls, they get an enclosed litter box. It’s not nice cleaning up pee from the WALL each and every time ur female cat goes to the bathroom.

    The first time she got an enclosed litter box, she peed straight out the entrances πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

    Thankfully they don’t use standard clay litter, sobit doesn’t get very dusty inside it.

  28. @Pawziexoxo on February 5, 2025 at 10:06 pm

    My cat Hobbes loves the litter box with the lid on it

  29. @ABKZ8 on February 5, 2025 at 10:08 pm

    I want a flying car but we don’t all get what we want.

  30. @KAdams-dr4pc on February 5, 2025 at 10:09 pm

    Did you interview cats about this before you posted this PSA ??
    Because you’re a human and not a cat.

  31. @Drualeaf on February 5, 2025 at 10:09 pm

    Cats do like some privacy. Like don’t be standing there, staring at them doing their business. πŸ˜‚

  32. @chilldicko on February 5, 2025 at 10:10 pm

    PSA or AD?

  33. @Randomynous01 on February 5, 2025 at 10:11 pm

    I would make it half its length just to stop the litter from spilling outside

  34. @down1plus2 on February 5, 2025 at 10:13 pm

    $200 for that litter box makes no sesnse

  35. @nickalexander1907 on February 5, 2025 at 10:15 pm

    Cats are disgusting

  36. @larryhobgoblin6172 on February 5, 2025 at 10:16 pm

    with that logic, wouldnt the cat feel more safe with a majority of its surrounding being enclosed like bruh stfu

  37. @kiiiirbzzz on February 5, 2025 at 10:17 pm

    Nope mine use the enclosed litter box just fine

  38. @seenso on February 5, 2025 at 10:17 pm

    If no enclosed litter box, cat go bathroom in wrong places. Why? you’d have to ask her πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ I need the hood to act as a bumper to keep her hiney in the right spot lol she has also stood on the side of the litter box with her hiney on the wrong side so I can’t use walls. It has to be a hood- she’s been like this since she was a kitten and she doesn’t mind the hood.

  39. @SweatnCancer on February 5, 2025 at 10:21 pm

    If my cat wasn’t such a dick who will look at me in the eyes then fling litter by the masses out of the box I wouldn’t need a enclosed the last straw was when I went to sleep and found my cat had kicked out every piece of litter cuz he thinks it’s a game and plays in the litter as well he was costing me few hundred dollars a month cuz I even tried one of those high side litter boxes and he still did it thank God for enclosed boxes

  40. @SareBear2000 on February 5, 2025 at 10:21 pm

    Similar to what some of the people have been saying here, my cat prefers his closed litter boxes. I initially got him an open one as a kitten and he would dig out all the litter and even go outside of the litter box. So I got him a larger open litter box and he would do the same thing. I figured he thought this was a game so I got him a closed litter box and he went in there perfectly, never went outside the litter box ever again period and so I upgraded and got him another larger closed litter box and he never went back to the open one again so I just kept both closed the litter boxes.

  41. @GrookieGang on February 5, 2025 at 10:21 pm

    Dude I don’t care I got him an enclosed box because he kicks out half the litter every time he uses it

  42. @TheCline69 on February 5, 2025 at 10:23 pm

    When why cats get jobs they can choose their toilets

  43. @Applefablestudio on February 5, 2025 at 10:24 pm

    thanks! I’m new to cat items so this was very helpful

  44. @Free-spirited91 on February 5, 2025 at 10:25 pm

    Your cat wants a clean, big enough litter box. Period. I open and close the use the one that’s more clean regardless.

  45. @leahfean4937 on February 5, 2025 at 10:25 pm

    Get rid of the music! I am hearing impaired and cannot understand what you are saying even with my hearing aids!!!!

  46. @87clits on February 5, 2025 at 10:25 pm

    No it’s because he peed up the back requiring the need for an enclosed litter box. You have no idea what you’re talking about.

  47. @Dave_Outside on February 5, 2025 at 10:27 pm

    Maybe. Depends on the cat I think. Some cats are just more paranoid than others. we have a couple of cats that certainly don’t care. They are ok going into an enclosed litter box. One of them actually prefers it over the other stander one.

  48. @princessyona1546 on February 5, 2025 at 10:27 pm

    Closed is better for the smell

  49. @Letsallbekurtsversion on February 5, 2025 at 10:28 pm

    Well then how am i supposed to get litter off the floor because i used to have an enclosed one and there was no litter and when i have one thats open theres litter every where and its made my house dirty

  50. @willywezlis on February 5, 2025 at 10:28 pm

    yes but there is no predator in my house that my cat needs to be aware of
