Have you tried litter boxes with a top to them before? That might solve your flying poo/hay problem at least, and possibly contain the smell issue.

Lintini, why don’t you get the BB litterscreen? It REALLY stops the digging out of litter and you can just buy the screens by themselves.

Someone just posted that they put their litterbox inside of a cardboard box with a small hole cut out on the side. Who was that?

it was Cheyann in this thread

Thanks Petzy!!! I totally blanked out! So that wouldn’t solve ALL your issues Lintini, but might make hay a bit more manageable!

I definitely would try that screen. I gave one to a friend who has a digger and it stopped the digging – she was pleased because she had had enough as well.

I’m thinking same as Beka for Bee & Indy’s box. You could prob get something right size from your work. Does Bee kick it all backwards or out the front of the box? The pic Cheyann posted (copy below) has a sort of “foyer” area at the entry. You could just empty anything that collects there back into the litter box.

Would the Bink Brothers soil paper if you gave them some for play? Maybe you could just use wood pellets for them and stick with what you have for the others? Then give them phonebook or scrunched up paper elsewhere in their mansion.

If you do go with the litter screen and back to pellets, you may notice you use less of them. Just a layer and scoop out the wet stuff.

I hear you though Lindsey, it can get tiring, especially when you’re unwell. I go thru modes of wanting to change the litter set up to make it easier but it all ends up the same really.

Kisses for Bun. Good girl Bun

Hey I love your hutch, is there any other pictures of it on the forum anywhere? That is something that i would love to make for my guys

AV, Lintini’s friend made it. He’s on here as MikeBun. There’s pics in Habitats gallery and there was a thread they posted at the time when it was made. It’s pretty neat. You got plans AV? lol

Do you really want to clean up all that dirt from the kiddy pool? LOL – that would stress me out even more than the digging :~) What about a box filled with shredded paper?

I’ve done the kiddy pool, but outside. It was one mess, let me tell you, you wouldn’t want it indoors. Also, they will potty in it a lot and due to the large size of a kiddy pool it is a big job to clean.

Here’s the digging box I made. I put it in my room and not much sand gets out.

And putting the litter pan in the box kept most of the litter contained. I had to get the wire things because since Minnie dug up the litter there was not much left in the litter pan and Maddie would have a pee soaked butt.

That’s a gorgeous diggy box!!!!!!

(I love that green color!)

Genius! I never thought of having a diggy box with lid!

Lintini,
I tried a google search for that specific pan you linked above, and it looks like there’s a problem getting it, so maybe it’s discontinue?
However, I did spot this one at Petco if you’re still interested in something similar:

Yep, the wood stove pellets (untreated as you know) are a good, inexpensive solution. I had tried Feline Pine which was really cheap if you’re not finding them at a hay and feed store even cheaper. If you’re going to Petco, you might want to give their Aspen Shavings a try if the pellets weren’t soft enough. It’s where I buy the Aspen pellets (kind of expensive but my favorite for safety and odor control) that I top with a layer of aspen shavings. The shavings, unlike the pine, are safe, soft, and a big bag is compressed and goes pretty far. Just a thought.
