• a walled housing with an open bottom and at least three walls and one anterior wall with a cut out opening for an animal to go in and out, the walled housing having a bottom perimeter flange that removably engages the base and an upper front of the drawer;
• and
• a removable ramp assembly configured to engage the cut out opening of the walled housing, the ramp assembly including:
• an outer tray with a bottom base having a lower tray area for receiving loose litter, a first and a second vertical side wall each extending vertically upwards from the bottom base, a lower back wall, and a moveable flap configured to removably couple the outer tray to the cut out opening of the walled housing, wherein the moveable flap is adjustable to whichever angle is needed for resting the outer tray on the cut out opening or the free entrance edge;
• an insert with a textured upper surface configured to remove litter from animal paws, the insert configured to be placed within the outer tray, wherein the first and second vertical side walls extend vertically above the textured upper surface, the insert having a tapered end defining a downward sloped surface that defines a space adjacent the lower back wall for receiving and retaining loose litter;
• wherein the walled housing includes a first interior retainment flange that engages a perimeter of a removable grate, and at least a second horizontal flange extending inwardly from the first interior retainment flange, wherein the second horizontal flange extends downward at 15 degrees or more;
• wherein the drawer has a front upper flange configured to engage the bottom perimeter flange of the walled housing.
