Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Litter scatter outside the box. | Cat digging vigorously; litter level too high; cat exiting quickly. | Ensure litter level is appropriate (not overfilled). Consider placing a litter mat at the entrance. The hooded design is intended to minimize scatter. |
| Difficulty separating layers for cleaning. | Components are tightly interlocked; plastic may be stiff. | Apply gentle, even pressure when separating. Avoid excessive force to prevent damage. Ensure no litter or debris is wedged between layers. |
| Urine leakage between layers. | Cat urinates high on the sides; layers not fully sealed. | Ensure all layers are securely snapped together during assembly. If your cat consistently urinates high, consider using a litter liner that extends up the sides or increasing litter depth. |
