I’m very excited to share with you this brand new product called the LitterPod. I first saw a prototype of this product almost a year ago at the Global Pet Expo, and just today received word that the first LitterPods are now shipping. Perfect timing! This stylish container conceals a built-in oval-shaped litter box, and completely encloses the sides to reduce litter scatter. The generously sized oval structure sets-up in minutes with no tools required. When assembled, the LitterPod measures 22″ wide by 16.5″ deep by 16″ tall. The LitterPod is made from stain- and odor-resistant materials and is easy to clean. It even includes an odor absorbing charcoal filter.
The LitterPod is now shipping to select Petco stores in the US. Please call the manufacturer directly at 800-545-1840 to find a location near you. The LitterPod will retail for $60 US.

AWWWWW! I WANT ONE!!!!! Does anyone ship to APO addresses? I have two BIG boys and I need to move them out of their balcony room. They love having the room to themselves with a HUGE window to see out of, but it’s really damp in there in the winter, the big window and the wall all condense water like mad. The landlord says I should keep the door shut to stop it, but that only makes it worse, and besides that, the cats wouldn’t be able to use their box. I need to move their box into the main living area, but nothing is big enough, nice enough AND is hidden.
Please help me find one so I can dry off my kitties?!?!?!?!?!

Bad news for some of you out there:
Here’s my update to my post #222– If you have a cat that is a sprayer or sideways pee-er.. this is NOT the box for you. I was thrilled to try this innovative design.. even went so far to customize the look (I was not a fan of the woodgrain) with paintable/textured wallpaper on the outside that I painted a slick gloss black for a super chic look… only to be disappointed that when 2 out of 3 of my female cats (who squirt backwards when they pee…) made a HUGE mess each time they used the box because of a design flaw. When the urine hits the back/side walls, it flows down and between where the top/main portion of the unit rests on the base, creating a giant lava flow of urine so large that it leaves a giant liquid mess all over the floor. NOT fun. I gave up after a couple of weeks of constant cleaning. I also am a specialty pet retailer that was selling them. I say ‘was’ b/c I cannot in good conscious sell it for $70+ knowing it has such a huge flaw. It needs some type of lip or seal, or something to prevent ‘pee run-off’.
I am seriously considering designing an ultra fab, mod, functional litterbox for cats of all sizes & potty patterns. If there are any serious industrial product engineers out there interested in a partnership, Pussy&Pooch is interested to discuss. – Janene

DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!
We have had our Litter Pod for less than 2 weeks and urine is seeping through the bottom pan and onto our floor!!!
Any litter box that can’t hold liquid is not a good one.
$75 later… I will let you know how the return process goes. We ordered with Puutty Power

A follow up to my above post:
Puutty Power is an excellent business!
Within a few hours of contacting them I got a personal call and a store credit for my defective Litter Pod.
I highly recommend buying toys and other products from them!
Our cat is IN LOVE with this: (http://www.puuttypower.com/servlet/the-39/Vee-Enterprises-PURRfect-FeatherBouncer/Detail)
I am going to try the ModKat litter box when it comes out. Looks like a much better product.

Awesome! I LOVE incorporated wood designs! Now do I get THIS one or the MODKAT one??!!

I love this design. It’s a beautiful looking litter box.

Very stylish!

This is the best litter box I have ever seen – I have two big boy cats and I have two litter boxes one covered and one open – my one cat can’t seem to keep things in the box if you know what I mean LOL – and my daughters friend just stepped on the other covered one and broke it — I would love to win this Litter box

This litterbox is great! It’s stylish and affordable. Can’t wait to replace my unattractive DIY cabinet.

This has a smooth style. I like it!

I’m about to adopt a cat from the shelter where I volunteer. I would LOVE to win this litter box.

This is so pleasing to the eyes you could leave the litter box anywhere

I wish my bathroom was half as stylish as this.

I would love one of these stylish litterboxes for my 3 cats. Will you ship to Canada??
February 1st, 2010 at 8:52 am
A round litter box, what a great idea.
February 1st, 2010 at 1:12 pm
These are beautiful and actually match my home! You can not even tell that this is a litter box. The cave-like design will also hide any unwanted scent of a regular open litter box. This is the first BEAUTIFUL litter box I have ever scene… and I LOVE IT!

Great to see a stylish litter box!
February 12th, 2010 at 1:53 am
Always looking for ways to fit litter boxes in tiny bathrooms! It would work perfectly in ours.

Wow! There are so many sleek, modern accessories for cats available! I had no idea. Thank you modern cat!!
