This is our hidden litter box and cat organizer. The piece of furniture was a 55 gallon fish tank stand we got at petco. It was nice and made out of wood laminate. We cut a hole in the side and put molding for the entrance. The cats walk down a corridor that is lined with indoor/outdoor carpet to minimize tracking. They then jump down in the litter box which has a motion-activated LED light. The box has plenty of storage for all of our cat stuff.

@Mama2LoLa Keep an eye out for the furniture that can work, I just had seen this at our petco on clearance but I’ve since seen a lot of buffet-type furniture that would work well, too!

@sitihajarzaidi It’s pretty easy with a saw if you use the molding to smooth out the cuts. I used a ‘rotozip’ circular cutting tool, but any saw should work.

Thanks! It works So Well, and it’s nice to have all the storage, too. Also, absolutely no “scatter” of litter which was a big problem with our other litter boxes. Just run the vacuum once every few days to pick up what is left on the rug.
@fhassan11 – I am not sure of the brand it was a “petco” branded 55-gallon wooden fishtank stand made by studio RTA which makes a lot of the furniture for them. The key was having the two doors to get at all the goods inside and the adjustable shelves.

wow, genius. I just bought a new house and searched “hidden litter box” because I really don’t want guests to see litter anywhere. So happy I found this, it’ll be perfect for my house. Honestly, I bet you could market this.
This is an awesome …
This is an awesome idea! Do you happen to know which company made the Fish Tank Stand. If you have a model number that would be really helpful. I’ve been looking at several items but none is as perfect as this one. Thanks.
thats a sweet idea.
