5.3 Using the Scratch Pad

The integrated scratch pad at the entrance provides a dedicated area for your cats to sharpen their claws, helping to protect other furniture. It also aids in trapping loose litter from paws.

5.4 Door Operation

The enclosure features no-handle pop-up doors. To open, gently press the door panel. To close, push the door until the magnetic catch engages, securing it in place. Doors can be opened individually or both simultaneously for full access.

6. Maintenance

6.1 Cleaning the Enclosure

Regularly wipe down the exterior and interior surfaces of the enclosure with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners that may damage the wood finish. The 6.3-inch clearance under the unit allows for easy cleaning underneath, including access for cleaning robots.

6.2 Cleaning the Scratch Pad

The scratch pad can be removed for cleaning or replacement. Shake off loose litter and debris. If heavily soiled, it may be cleaned with a pet-safe cleaner or replaced as needed.

7. Troubleshooting

• Doors not closing securely: Check if the magnetic catches are properly aligned and installed. Adjust if necessary. Ensure no debris is obstructing the door's path.
• Cats not using the enclosure: Introduce the enclosure gradually. Leave the doors open initially to allow cats to explore. Place familiar items or treats inside. Ensure the litter box inside is clean and accessible.
• Litter tracking: Ensure the scratch pad is in place. Consider using a litter mat outside the enclosure's entrance to further reduce tracking.
• Unpleasant odors: Regularly clean the litter boxes and the enclosure. Ensure proper ventilation. Consider using odor-absorbing products within the litter boxes.
