A hygienic toilet for a domestic pet comprises a first outer container of the tray type having a bottom plane and a lateral surface having four side walls extending therefrom. The side walls may be delimited by one or more upper edges. A second mating inner container corresponding to the outer container is also provided. The second inner container also comprises a bottom plane and four side walls, which may be delimited by upper edges. The second container is insertable inside the first container when properly oriented thereto and is adapted to receive a layer up to a predetermined height of absorbent or compacting inert granular material for the excrements of the domestic pet. The second container comprises a plurality of openings arranged above the predetermined height exclusively at one of the side walls which rise from the bottom plane. The openings have dimensions such as to enable passage of said inert granular material.

A method for using a hygienic litter toilet for domestic pets comprising a first external container comprised of a bottom plane and four side walls without any openings extending therefrom, and a second mating container which is insertable into the first container and whose four side walls match the side walls of the first container, wherein the second container exclusively has one side wall provided with openings above a predetermined height, wherein inert granular material is arranged inside the second container up to or below the predetermined height, wherein the second container is separated from the first container and subsequently the inert granular material is sieved and made to fall into the first container by tilting the second container above the first container so that the inert granular material falls onto the bottom plane of the first container, cleaning the second container from residues present in the second container itself, then pouring the inert granular material from the first container onto the bottom plane of the second container, and finally arranging the second container in the first container so that they match each other.
