What is a "litter box"?
A litter box is a container used for indoor cats to use the bathroom. It is filled with litter, which is a material like sand, clay, or other absorbent substances that helps control odors and absorb waste. Litter boxes come in different sizes and shapes, and some have covers or lids to keep the area clean and contain smells. They should be cleaned regularly to keep them sanitary for the cat. Litter boxes are essential for indoor cats, providing a designated place for them to relieve themselves.
