ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method are provided for partially automating the use of litter bags for animal litter. The method makes use of apparatus including two pivoted arms over the tops of which the upper portion of a litter bag may be folded when the arms are extended upwardly. The arms are then pivoted downwardly to spread out the litter bag either in a litter pan or upon the base upon which the arms are pivoted. The litter containers used are in the form of bags which-may be prefilled and have an interior sheet over the litter to prevent dusting and pockets in the upper edge to facilitate attachment to the pivoted arms of the support apparatus.
