ABSTRACT:
A new and improved cat litter box apparatus includes a floor member and four walls projecting upward from the floor member. The four walls and the floor member define a container for litter material. A removable and replaceable cover member is capable of being fitted onto the four walls for sealing the litter within the container. A discharge outlet is located in one the four walls for permitting the litter within the container to be discharged from the container. Three of the four walls include grooves and one of the four walls includes a slot for receiving the cover member for sealing the litter within the container. A lifting handle is attached to one of the four walls for lifting the container. A receptacle slot, located under the floor member, receives the cover member when the cover member is not installed on the four walls for sealing the litter within the container. A spout member is capable of being connected to the discharge outlet for permitting controlled discharge of the litter from the container through the discharge outlet and through the spout member. A holder assembly is attached to one of the four walls for holding the spout member when the spout member is not connected to the discharge outlet. A discharge valve assembly is provided for selectively closing or opening the discharge outlet. A supply assembly may be provided for retaining a roll of film material for providing film material to the container.
