ABSTRACT:
A housing large enough to accommodate a cat has a rounded top and a removable litter tray for a bottom, with the litter tray being clamped to the housing with a plastic sheet over it to receive the litter. A removable drawer-like container having a screen bottom is mounted in the upper portion of said housing. The support for the removable container closes the space between the housing and the removable container on one side but leaves it open on the other side, so that, when the housing is rotated through 360 degrees about a longitudinal axis, the litter flows along the side wall of the housing and into said container. The particulate litter then drops through the screen bottom of said container, and the fecal matter and any agglomerated litter may be disposed of by removing the container with the screen bottom, and dumping the fecal matter into the garbage. The remaining litter drops down to the litter tray at the base of the housing and may be re-used for a period of time. The housing may include a door to permit access by the cat, handles at the top and sides to facilitate lifting and rotating the housing or rolling it over, a filter for purifying air, and a fan for circulating air through the filter.
