With a brand new website that just launched today and an upcoming debut at ICFF, I’d like to introduce the ModKat Litter Box. Litter is an area that is wide open for innovation and this new product is taking on the challenge. With modern style, innovative function, and attention to green design, we may have a winner here.
There are obviously cat owners on the team over at ModProducts, the product design firm behind ModKat. They’ve addressed many of the main litter box issues that we face. By considering the experience of both the cat and the owner, the design team incorporated several unique features in the ModKat Litter Box.
Rooftop Access
The ModKat box uses a top entry which fully encloses the box and gives cats a better sense of privacy. The top of the box has a perforated, non-skid surface that acts as a litter catcher sending loose litter back in the box. The top removes for easy cleaning and the compact design takes up minimal floor space.
Reusable Liner for a Greener Design
This is the first litter box I’ve seen that comes with a washable, reusable liner. Made from durable rip-resistant tarpaulin material, the liner has sturdy built-in handles that make it easy to lift and empty. It fits perfectly inside the box so you don’t see it from the outside. No more plastic liners! That saves you money and it saves space in the landfill.
Ergonomic Scoop
Attention to detail continues with the scoop, which has an ergonomic handle and rounded edges to make scooping easy. It even has a brush incorporated in the side for sweeping stray litter back into the box. And, of course, (my favorite thing!) there’s a place to hang the scoop on the side of the box.
The ModKat Litter Box is expected to be available this summer. You can sign-up at the ModKat website to receive notifications. In the meantime, I’m sure they would love to hear what you think so please leave a comment here with your thoughts. Maybe they’ll even offer one for a giveaway!

Looks neat. My cats would love to test that.

Very sleek! Certainly takes care of hiding an ugly litter box in a house where tucking it away in a basement is not possible. I still don’t like the idea of having to clean the box, tho….many new cat litter boxes are completely automatic.

This is a great idea. Would be nice to hear how it works in use. Ofcouse the price will demand if I will buy this product or not….

It seems very expensive, but a good product. Do you have a cheaper option?

This would be ideal for my new kitten! I love the idea of a washable liner.

I’m just wondering if a kitten would be able to get in and out of this alright.

Wow this is awesome! I’m wondering if my 16lbs kitty will fit in there and if this is available in Canada? It is a little Pricey in my opinion, but if it works from keeping kitty litter off my floor and from my moms dogs getting into it when she visits, it might be worth it
plus it looks ultra modern!
