Inappropriate elimination is one of the top reasons cat adopters consult veterinary behaviorists. Cats sometimes urinate or defecate outside their litter box, partly due to a poorly designed elimination environment leading to avoidance.

Traditional litter boxes are typically limited to a single compartment, either open or covered. However, articles published by the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA) on general litter box considerations indicate that cats often prefer to have multiple options for their needs. When confined to a single-zone box, many cats choose to defecate outside if the litter box appears soiled or unsuitable. These observations explain why offering a dual-zone litter box aligns with felines' natural instincts.

There is therefore a real need for a litter box that offers cats several options, while remaining simple, practical and easy to maintain.

The Dual Zone Litter Box with Smart Separation offers an alternative for cats who want two separate areas for their needs and allows cat adopters to avoid purchasing two litter boxes. To learn more, contact Éduchateur, a team of cat behavior experts. https://educhateur.com/
