Modkat Litter Box Review

Modkat is a modern and stylish cat litter box lauded as the iPod among litter boxes. It was designed and developed by ModProducts LLC., a New York company founded in 2008. Join us as we explore every little bit of this litter box in our Modkat review in order to help you learn how to make your cat as comfortable and happy as possible while keeping your home litter-free. 

How Modkat Litter Box Works

Modkat is a top-entry litter box designed to minimize litter tracking while providing your pet with an extra dose of privacy.

Every box includes a full-height seamless base and an easy-to-open swivel lid. Each litter box comes with a large hanging litter scoop and a reusable tarp liner. In other words, in order to use Modkat, all you need to do is add your favorite clumping litter.

Here’s how to set up Modkat:

• Start off by pushing the four liner hooks into their designated corner slots;
• Proceed by positioning the liner in the base while making sure the open side is facing front;
• Hang the four liner grommets from their coinciding hooks;
• Install the walk-off platform (video guide available on the official Modkat website).

Modkat Litter Box is designed for one cat, which helps avoid territorial battles and allows your pet to use it whenever he or she feels the need. However, if space is tight, you can use it for two cats, as long as they do not mind sharing. If two cats use the litter box, you should scoop at least once a day.

The company recommends using an all-natural or organic clumping litter. These types of litter work great with Modkat reusable liners and beat clay any time of the day. You should maintain a 3-4″ litter level at all times to allow your cat to bury his or her mess properly. Having enough litter in the box also facilitates clumping. 

Modkat reusable liners are designed to last up to 3 months, but this depends on how many pets use the litter box, how much litter you use, and how ferocious your cats are when it comes to scratching. You should clean the liner with water and mild dish soap on a monthly basis. Make sure you replace it once you see signs of fraying tearing or when it starts giving off excessive odor. Do not put it in your dishwasher or washing machine. 

Modkat Litter Box Design & Dimensions

Modkat is a spacious litter box that will allow your cat to go in and out of it without any problems. Your pet will also be able to squat or turn around quite comfortably once inside the box. Modkat’s dimensions are:

• 16″ in length 
• 16″ in width 
• 15″ in height 
• The entry is around 9″ in diameter 

The dimensions of the liners are: 

• 16″ in length 
• 16″ in width 
• 10″ in height 

As you can see, Modkat was not designed for larger cats. Having said that, small-to-medium felines should be quite comfortable inside. The company recommends using it for cats weighing up to 12lbs. Considering its size, the box will not take up too much space in your home. 

Modkat’s design is not suited for elderly or disabled cats. Its top-entry layout may be quite a challenge for pets that have difficulties jumping or climbing. 

Modkat does not feature any moving parts, except for the locking swivel lid that also acts as a walk-off mat. The base of the box is seamless, preventing any type of potential leaking, which makes it ideal for side pee-ers. Its solid construction also deters children and other pets from nosing around the box.  

If you like playing around with different color combinations, Modkat comes in white, gray, and black. There are no combined color schemes available at this moment. 

Modkat Litter Box Highlights

Modkat Litter Box was developed to make your home cleaner and your cat happier. Its chic design (as far as litter boxes go) will complement any room you put it in and it will also save you a ton of time on cleaning. Here are some other advantages of this award-winning product: 

Prevents Litter Tracking

The patented design of Modkat Litter Box will almost eliminate litter tracking in your home. Its locking lid also acts as a walk-off mat that will keep the litter where it belongs – in the box.  

Swivel Lid For Easy Cleaning

Just swivel and scoop. Any litter leftovers will drop neatly inside the box once you open the lid.  

Reusable Liner

All Modkat litter boxes come with the company’s proprietary reusable liner. The liner is made of commercial-grade tarpaulin, which reduces odor absorption, ripping, and liquid penetration.  

Seamless Base

Modkat litter box features a seamless base, which does not just prevents leaks but also allows for easier cleaning. It also lets you use the box without liners if your pet does not like them.

Dog-Proof

If you also have a dog in your home, Modkat will prevent it from getting inside the box and spreading litter all over the house.

Is Modkat Litter Box Right For My Cat(s)?

As we already mentioned in this Modkat review, this litter box is not designed for larger cats. It should not be used for older or disabled pets either since they will not be able to access the entry on top and go in and out as they please. 

Apart from this, there are no other limitations that should prevent you from giving Modkat a go.

Modkat litter box costs $89.99 and comes with a 30-day guarantee. If you are unsatisfied with the box for whatever reason, contact the company within 30 days of the date of purchase and you may receive a full refund.

Does Modkat Litter Box Live Up To Expectations?

Users who tested Modkat litter box were pretty satisfied with what they received for their money. They confirmed that the use of the litter box reduced litter tracking, particularly praised the design of the product, stressing that they could place it anywhere in the home without it sticking out from the rest of the furniture, and said there were no leaks even after prolonged use. The liners proved to be absorbent and started giving off unpleasant odors only if not changed in time. Finally, many customers had quite a laugh seeing their cats half poked out while “taking care of business.”
