Yes, $180.00 is a lot of money, but if you have a cat (or cats), you know a solution to the unsightly litter box is well worth a good stack of bills, even if they are twenties.

Who says a litter box can’t embrace form as well as function, work with your décor and provide an unparalleled experience for your cat. Not us. The ModKat Litter Box is the answer. Its modern design compliments any room, while the enclosed base and “rooftop access” allows your cat the privacy needed to do his or her business. Every detail has been thoughtfully considered, from the non-skid feet that keeps Modkat put, to the locking rooftop that keeps nosey pets and curious kids at bay. An ergonomic scoop with incorporated brush stores neatly on the side and the reusable litter liner is friendly to your wallet and to the environment.

Save $20 if you pre-order before June 14 (Discount Code: modkat20).

If I had a nickel for every time someone talked about needing a decent way to conceal a litter box, I'd have about 40 cents. Unfortunately that comes nowhere near paying for this particular solution.

A modern bench designed to conceal the cat litter box. The streamlined appearance hides its purpose. European hardware offers soft-close lid support to open and close without slamming. The interior is cleverly vented to provide adequate airflow for the cats health, yet does not give up any offending odors.

Thank goodness for the power of cat nip.

Itch's modern design and eco-friendliness is wall mountable for secure vertical cat scratching or place it on the floor for those smaller horizontal scratchers. Catnip can be placed behind the insert to further entice scratching. Made from 100% rapidly renewable bamboo plywood in your choice of amber or natural. Also available in your choice of insert color.

I've seen several pet products on the market, and none have really come close to achieving a good combination of high style and solving the ugly realities of pet ownership (mainly the litter box), until Marly Gommans "Cats in Style" line.

Yes, this bed is pretty expensive for an animal that is probably content to eat food out of the trash, but if you have a certain aesthetic you're going for this bed may fit the bill.

This dog crate seems more of a sculpture than anything else; half basket and half bird cage. It would blend in nicely with modern surroundings, so for those of you with companions under the 25lb. mark, you're in luck. Crate in powder-coated steel wire, Crate mat/liner is 100% rubber.
