Abstract
A cat litter box includes a floor and first, second, and third sidewalls that extend upwardly from the floor. The sidewalls are in an at least generally triangular arrangement with the first sidewall being generally perpendicular to the second sidewall so as to permit the cat litter box to be placed in a corner of a room. The first sidewall is disposed adjacent to and parallel with one of the walls of the room and the second sidewall is disposed adjacent to and parallel with another one of the walls of the room. The cat litter box also includes a low and wide entranceway that extends outwardly from the third sidewall.
