Hi codexstark-
I’m not Pitlove, but interested in helping you if possible. She mentioned on another thread that her kitten did settle down and quit playing and eating in the box.

What kind of litter are you using now? I prefer a clay unscented clumping litter for my crew. Why do you want to switch? I’d be a little leery of switching if things are going well now. If you do, I’d do a gradual transition replacing new with old over a week or more. Maybe even just add a new box with the new litter and leave the old one out to see if they use the new one. We both know the last thing you want is for them not to use it at all or end up with an infection.
Here are some great links with wonderful information:

On the catinfo site, there are directions on how to make a nice big roomy cat box out of a tote. For large or multiple cats it works great. I know Bobbydog has made one and I think Pitlove mentioned that she did also. I have four cats and seven litter boxes. At least one box is in the garage and two in their outdoor enclosure. They are not all in the house. I also have a male with urinary tract issues. Write back and let us know what you think.
