The first floor has a slope along its full dimension to a single lowest point. A second floor supports an animal and positioned above the first floor. The floor includes perforations for permitting liquid waste to pass therethrough onto the sloped first floor while retaining solid wastes thereon and a litter holder for providing a location for instinctive animal elimination of solid and liquid wastes. The litter holder communicates with the perforations for permitting liquid to pass from the litter holder through the second floor onto the first floor. A liquid collector cooperates with the first floor at its lowest point for permitting collection of liquid flowing there.
