The most common design for these types of litter boxes is a litter box where the entrance is on the top, or lid. This means that your cat needs to climb in through the top of their litter box. This is easily accomplished by a cat but makes it much harder for a dog to go sniffing around and almost impossible for them to get inside. By placing the entrance to the litter box on top you are keeping it out of your dog’s site and you know what they say, out of site out of mind. Dog proof litter  boxes are a simple solution to a very annoying problem that many owners of multiple pets go through.

Another type of dog proof litter box is one designed with a cylinder like entrance, this “doorway” is built for smaller animals and to keep out larger animals. This type of litter box is perfect for families with larger dogs. Your cat will be able to enter and leave at their convenience, while your dog will not be able to enter.

Amazon.com offers some great dog proof litter boxes for cats. The reason why I suggest searching Amazon for these particular types of litter boxes is that, even though this is a very common problem for many pet owners, they are a bit hard to find. If you can’t find exactly what you are looking for on Amazon you can try searching Google.com’s shopping site Froogle.com for some great deals on dog proof litter boxes. Between these two sites you are sure to find a litter box that is perfect for you and your pet’s needs.

Using a dog proof litter box is a perfect solution for nessy, over curious dogs. You will be able to keep your cat’s litter box out in the open and keep your dog out. These types of litter boxes are faily priced and won’t spend much more money then you would have on a traditional cat litter box.
