You should consider making these to sell! What a terrific idea, I live in a apartment too. I could never do that myself though. Just sayin....

@@billybatson9981 My plan was to market this and many other DYI ideas that I was working on. Then life happens. I’ll be back! Haha

That is very attractive and clever. There is another way to get rid of the smell. When they stink, SCOOP them. LOL Then light a candle and all smells are gone. My husband is, right now, cutting a hole in the wall into my downstairs laundry room. I have the litter boxes under a counter in there, and I am going to make a curtain across to hide them. Now I can shut my laundry room door, and they can go thru the cute little hole into the laundry room. Trying to come up with a cute way to decorate and trim it. But since you cannot cut up your house, your idea is really really nice. Extra seating, too. Thumbs up!

If you haven't or at least have not thought of marketing this product, then you have no desire to retire early. Don't bother with a patent. Just start a website and through word-of-mouth the orders will come pouring in. I would pay $500 or more for such an innovative way to keep from smelling the poop of my 3 cats. You wouldn't be able to keep up with the orders unless you hired help. This is a small business opportunity staring you in the face. Apply for a small business loan. If for some crazy reason the business fails, the government will absorb the loss and you can go pursue other interests. Go for it, bro.

$500 is too much! A lot of people can't afford such price. Be considerate of others!

You sir...are a genius!

That entré to the box is really brilliant.

Such an awesome idea, and well executed project! Very lucky kitties to have such a great daddy!

This is awesome!!’ I’m showing this for my son in law who I think can do this. Thanks!!!

Love this. I've been a cat lover all my life, so I know what a challenge it can be to hide the box. So innovative and cool!

What a great idea for the litter box. Thanks for sharing. You gave me great idea for the scrunch pad around the litter.

This is fantastic. It’s not exactly what I had in mind for my needs, but it’s pretty close. There are plenty of DIY litter box enclosures but shockingly few that are built for TWO cats. I have been planning one that is very similar except that the enclosure would be a long rectangle with the two boxes on either end facing opposite each other. I have been having a hell of a time coming up with a way to seal the bottom without making it too heavy or difficult to clean. I’ve also been struggling to come up with a solution for ventilation. The little vent you installed and the grooved panels were exactly the inspiration I needed to finish my design and start building. Can’t thank you enough!

You are the bomb! I'm showing my husband this! I have 4 cats and a 1200 square foot house. Probably not as small as your apartment but definitely small by house standards. And one of my baths is actually too little for a box so I need an alternate solution. With 4 cats I have 2 jumbo boxes and dip frequently. Thanks for sharing!

This is a great idea! I also live in an apartment with two cats. It's so hard to find something like this to purchase. Really enjoyed watching how you made it.

This is a smart design! I can tell you put a lot of thought into this project. It's also really attractive. This is well-beyond my carpentry capabilities. Just wanted to say thanks for sharing the video.

Wow, Incredible idea! You really got me when the video got to the fan! Kudos! Your cats are adorable !

Oh my gosh- your design is genuis!

Great job looks like you thought of everything !!!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

after hours of videos finally a match! Good job. I have two cats and one tiny spot in the city and this is the answer. working on a similar box of my own and had my doubt you pretty much got it only one comment is to get a sifter pan if you do not want to invest into a manual cleaning machine. other then that you made my morning. thanks!

Really cool litter box!!! Thank you for this video. Good Job!!!

This is an amazing project. Thank you for sharing!

I would love to buy a litter box like this for my cats. I think is the best idea i seen so far. My cats make so much mess around the litter box so i have to clean like three times a day. Now i'm pregnant and its more difficult to clean up when my partner is not home. We trying to find the best solution to keep our home clean especially for the baby in the future. Well done !

Terrific idea and a great job! Thanks for posting.

Awesome! Great ideas and darling cats!

Amazing, I would totally buy this litter camouflage bench! I have two cats and two litter boxes but I am kind of a clean freak so I remove the poop everyday and clean the litter box every 3 to 4 days with bleach along with the lids so the boxes never smell thank god. But I would totally buy this bench to hide the boxes, it looks so lovely!

This is perfect for me and my two cats. We have an area upstairs along the railings that this bench will fit perfectly. I also have two dogs, so having the entry in the back will keep them out... a continuing issue. Getting ready to map this out on paper so I can build my shopping list.

Brilliant! I love to MacGyver things and most definitely will adapt using a storage chest. Thanks!!

I need one of these in my life. I also need to see you pitch this on Shark Tank man! Please start selling these pronto!😻

Wow, impressive! Looks phenomenal! By far the best custom litter box enclosure I've seen! Any chance you'll start taking custom orders? Lol I need 3 custom enclosures for large self cleaning litter boxes, and I think I might be in over my head attempting to build even one of these. Love the idea, and how you incorporated the boxes into benches, and made an entire kitty corner with wall shelves. Great idea for the vent too!!

Wow!!!! That came out great, blends right in with the decor, looks amazing.... Can I place an order, I want one. Lol. You thought of everything, and all your ideas are brillant. I too live in a small 1 bedroom apartment but with only one cat, I have the liter box in the little hallway type area by the bathroom so you cant see it in the living room/kitchen area....but I cant stand the liter getting everywhere. I wonder if I put the scratch pad right as shes ccoming out she will use it. Ive also been trying to think of some kind of inclosed area. Im on top of the liter box daily and of course I clean it out everytime she goes practically when I can. Luckily Ive ased everyone that comes over can you smell an odor when you walk in my apartment and they have all said no. Thank god. I am absolutely in love with how you created that concealed liter box. Amazing! Also they sell those type of scratch pads at the Dollar Tree. My cat uses them with no problem, sometimes they dont have them but when I see them I stock up....

Fantastic!!! Very inventive, wish I had one.

That tortie is so cute! I have one too!

This is really awesome! Great work!

Jeremy Kitchen Thanks buddy! I appreciate the comment 🙂

I am an art student and am going to be having my cat in my room this coming semester. I am going to build one similar, thank you for the ideas.

Awesome man. Nice work

Hi there, I love this. One thing I've been puzzling about is some way for a motion sensor to kick the fan on as soon as they leave to vent the "fresh scent" outtside, then turn off after about 10 minutes. I'm not sure the waste would stop exuding smell from just the fan operating though. But everything you've done her, like the other person said, you could sell these, if you could find an economy of scale in source, cutting, and assembly of parts.

Cats got their own fart fan! Love it! Spoiled kitties lol

You're a bloody genius!

Nice job. I'm gathering ideas for my cat's new box.

You're a genius!!! Amazing.

Looks great!!

I want one!! Very creative :)

i love this. i am going to build one. might i suggest painting the inside with B.I.N . its a shellac based primer and will prevent the wood from soaking up odour.

Wow, you went next level....

That’s some serious invention man.

awesome tips. thanks so much!

Best idea ever. I'll try something similar, since I don't do woodworking. Great nevertheless!

Wow! You need to patten that! I need this in my camper.

I love this!!

Brilliant! I love it!

I am an DIY Mom. My Dad had 2 girls and I was the oldest so I would help my Dad with his "Projects". This just brilliant and you are making something that is not only useable but very nice to look at. Most people are good at one skill but not at making something stylish. The only thing I would add is either more daylight or a battery run nightlight. I understand that cats can "see" in the dark but I would have added something like that. What a beautiful job you did and I have never seen a corner bench made like this. I don't know but should you have a patent or copyright on your idea to protect it ? Congratulations on a job well done.

Amazing good thinking 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Omgosh so much props!!

Awesome job indeed. Kiln dried pine pellets also help with odor control. A 40 pound bag at Tractor Supply is less than 6 dollars.

Fabulous idea.

Great job.

Great job!!!

Nice project!

awesome idea! but if you would switch from clay litter, go to tractor supply and get equine pellets you wouldnt have to worry about smell or tracking litter. i recently changed and i am so much happier. i used to have to get up put sandles on, sweep my hardwood floor fro bedroom lvg room dining kitchen to utility before i could walk barefoot, now i dont have to change pellet litter only every 2 to 3 days and sawdist is still dry, light and absolutely no cat piss amonia smell. i love it!

I wish my husband was handyman like you

Way cool! I would totally buy one!! I am awful with legos, Let alone a project like this

You are amazing!

Thanks, I'm in the same situation with two cats, definatly building something similar, do you have to turn the fan on constantly? Would it smell without the fan or does the box do a good enough job to control the odor?

Brilliant!

Love this!

This is brilliant, you should patent it.

thank you so much! This was SO helpful!!!!!!!!!!! :)))))))))))))))))))

this is awesome !

You should really set up a supply list and/or a diagram of how you did this, hell start making this and maybe other variations and start selling them, excellent job

I had trouble with cats peeing on plastic bags on the floor after using like this...I would suggest using aluminum pans, doubled or tripled, about 50 cents apiece in bulk at wholesale clubs...or wall paper trays for easy dumping into garbage bag... HAVE been trying to vent for years....hard project for me to get going on, thanks!! you can also pre fill if you use the aluminum trays, rinse and perhaps recycle for money with your soda cans... I use wood pellets, bought on sale and discounted per pallet.

Very Nice . I might have a problem with the fan but I'm sure I can find someone to help :)

Wow. Very impressive! Can you include a summarized list of your DIY dialogue with measurements? And give an estimate of cost? Very much appreciative. Ty

Brilliant 👍👍👍👍

Nailed it dude

What are the dimensions you used? Might try to do this for my cat.

Would you consider making to sell? I need one & am not so handy!

wow great job idea you should make them for sale!!!

Good idea.

this is cool..i had an idea like this with the vent and fan... but was thinking using motion sensor with a delay...so the cat does its business..then the fan kicks on for 15 mins or so. great thinking on this.

thanks for sharing

This is a great idea!!! You know you should try Fresh step crystal litter or Nature's Miracle Crystal litter...the best at odor control you, will smell nothing especially with your hidden litter boxes..trust me give it a try.. the only litter I use for my kitty and she loves it. :-)

omg great idea!

How much did it cost you ?

Can I buy one from you? Lol Great idea!

Can I order one of these from you? I have a small dwelling also and 2 cats. I scoop a lot and change litter constantly, it stinks. I'm in Illinois.

Where can I buy this??? Please!

I could be your Texas granny? That looked so professional - how about customizing the inside of a Ford Transit van for me? 😂😂😂

good job

Hey Chris, very nice and stylish way to hide the litterboxes! Also the extract-fan is a very good idea, but isn't it laborious to grab the hose and stick it out the window every time? have you considered drilling a hole in the wall and use a wallmount air outlet instead? you could just leave the fan on all the time on low speed ;-)

Was thinking about doing a box enclosure faux furniture kinda like this just earlier today then this pops into my homepage. They're listening...! *grabs tin foil* 👽👽

Hi there! I have a question; was/is the unit strong enough to sit on? I was thinking of building something like this in my dinning room and having it as a bench on one side and chairs on the other. Thanks!
