Cat litter pods

#The present Cat Litter Pod relates to the field of animal litter devices. Animal litter containers of the type containing loose particulate material therein, such as so-called “litter boxes” are well suited for household use by domestic pets, such as cats, to deposit their excreta therein.

#The accompanying drawings, which are incorporated in and constitute a part of this specification, illustrate an embodiment of the cat litter pod that is preferred. The drawings together with the summary description given above and a detailed description given below serve to explain the principles of the apparatus. It is understood, however, that the cat litter pod is not limited to only the precise arrangements and instrumentalities shown.

#FIG. 1 is a PICTURE of an Actual Prototype Cat Litter Pod.

#FIG. 2 is a PICTURE of an Actual Prototype Cat Litter Pod demonstrating the two different sides.

#The new apparatus is a cat litter “pod”. The litter pod is comprised of a bottom built-in liner, impervious to liquids; a top gauze or cheesecloth-like material to cover the litter granules; a way to join the top and bottom to provide an encasement space; and absorbent granules of various litter material inside the encasement. A person having ordinary skill in the field of this type of apparatus appreciates the various materials and component parts that may be used to physically permit this cat litter pod to be produced and utilized. The improvements over the existing art are providing a device that: prevents the build-up of litter on sick or immobile cats; is clean and sanitary; may be used alone or with a container; is a simple and inexpensive design; is versatile in the type of absorbent granules used; is thin and can be of various sized areas; and is disposable.

#There is shown in FIGS. 1–9 a complete operative embodiment of the cat litter pod. The apparatus generally relates to a litter device for cats. While the present cat litter pod shows an apparatus that is approximately sixteen to eighteen inches in length, twelve inches in width and less than one inch in depth as the embodiment for a cat litter pod, this showing is not meant to limit the intention of the present device. The same concept applies to other litter pod devices of varying lengths, widths and depths.
