10 Best Cat Litter Box Furniture And Enclosures

#1 Overall Best: tuft + paw Rifuiti Litter Box Enclosure

A great litter box enclosure should be both attractive and functional which is why this Rifuiti Litter Box Enclosure from tuft + paw is our top pick. Not only does it fully enclose a standard-sized litter box, but its classic design suits a variety of décor schemes from modern to retro.

Constructed from sturdy birch plywood with a smooth UV coating, this enclosure is durable without taking up a lot of extra floor space. The surface is easy to wipe clean with a damp cloth and the integrated litter-catching tray helps prevent tracking and scatter.

The Rifuiti litter box enclosure is thoughtfully designed for form as well as convenience. The interior space is divided into two compartments which helps with odor control as well as tracking. The litter box itself sits on a slide-out tray and there is space below to place an additional litter mat, should you choose to.

Assembly is fairly simple and can be accomplished in about 30 minutes. This enclosure accommodates standard litter boxes up to 22”x18”x9” inches. When fully assembled, the unit stands 20 inches high, and it is suitable for cats up to 15 pounds.

What We Liked:

• Made from sturdy birch plywood with UV coating
• Easy to assemble in 30 minutes or less
• Sleek and stylish design, looks like real furniture
• Integrated litter catcher and pull-out tray for convenience

What We Didn’t Like:

• May not be ideal for larger cats
• Significantly more expensive than many models

#2 Runner Up: Good Pet Stuff Hidden Cat Litter Box

Traditional litter box enclosures are great, but if you’re looking for something unique then try this hidden litter box from Good Pet Stuff. It doesn’t just hide your litter box – it functions as a litter box in and of itself with a planter on top.

This litter box is perfectly rounded so it can be placed in a corner or incorporated into other elements of your home décor. It’s much more discreet than a traditional litter box and has the added element of a fake plant on top.

The base of the planter functions as a large, deep litter pan which measures about 19-by-19 inches. For cats to like to dig, there’s plenty of depth for several inches of litter. It has a wide opening for easy access and daily scooping as well as a filtered vent system that helps control dust and odor.

Some users found it challenging to fit the lid onto the base properly after cleaning and it may be something of a hassle to have to remove the lid for scooping at all. The moss covering the base of the fake plant at the top may be tempting for some cats to chew on, so you may want to consider removing or replacing it.

What We Liked:

• Doubles as a planter for an added décor element
• Designed for large cats and multi-cat households
• Affordably priced compared to similar sizes
• Deep tray may be good for cats who like to dig

What We Didn’t Like:

• Lid needs to be removed for scooping, can be a hassle
• Plastic materials may accumulate urine and bacteria over time

#3 Budget Pick: Trixie Pet Homes Litter Box Enclosure

A good litter box enclosure should be functional, and it shouldn’t detract from your home décor, but you don’t have to pay an arm and a leg for these features. The Trixie Pet Homes Litter Box Enclosure is a simple but stylish option that is affordably priced well under $100, depending which color you choose.

To make sure there’s a match for every décor scheme, this litter box enclosure comes in three colors: espresso brown, gray, and white. You also have the option of choose from two different sizes, with or without an added storage space on top.

Constructed from solid MDF wood with a smooth veneer finish, this litter box enclosure may not be as durable as solid wood but the price is right. You may need to be careful about using it in high humidity areas, and the veneer finish may not stand up to heavy clawing. That being said, it is quick and easy to assemble with durable hardware and it comes with a 1-year warranty.

This unit is enclosed on all four sides with a door that opens in the front and secures with a magnetic closure. The standard model measures 19.25x20x20 inches while the storage option measures 20.25x19x22.75 inches.

What We Liked:

• Simple, stylish design available in three colors
• Optional storage shelf on top
• Front door for easy access with magnetic closure
• Affordably priced well under $100

What We Didn’t Like:

• MDF materials may not withstand heavy spills or scratches
• May not be big enough for large cats and litter boxes

#4 Premium Pick: Litter Robot Coffee Oak Storage Cabinet

If you’re willing to pay a little more for it, you can find a litter box enclosure that looks great and doubles as a piece of functional furniture. The Litter-Robot Coffee Oak Storage Cabinet is beautifully designed with a coffee oak finish. In addition to hiding your litter box, it offers an optional hutch accessory for storage space on top of the unit.

This litter box enclosure is designed to hide the Litter-Robot II Connect, but it can be used with other automatic litter boxes as well as covered litter boxes. The cabinet itself measures 30.7×28.1×34.3 inches, so it can easily accommodate even the largest litter boxes. The optional hutch adds an additional 36 inches of height with two shelves, each 17 inches deep.

Made from composite wood, this litter box enclosure is designed to withstand minor scratches and small spills. Its chic, stylish design works well with many styles of home décor, and it is easily accessible for your cat to come and go as he pleases.

The primary downside of this option is that it is very pricey. The cabinet alone costs $329 and the hutch will set you back another $50.

Because the enclosure is designed for use with the Litter-Robot, one entire side is left open. If you use a regular open litter pan, it may not conceal odor as well as a covered litter box or automatic litter box.

What We Liked:

• Stylish and functional design with a coffee oak finish
• Specifically designed to conceal the Litter-Robot
• Easy access through interchangeable side open entry
• Shelves on top for extra storage space

What We Didn’t Like:

• Significantly more expensive than other options
• Takes up a significant amount of floor and wall space

#5 Best Durable: New Age Pet ecoFLEX Habitat N’ Home Litter Loo

When it comes to your cat’s litter box, things can get pretty messy. Between scattered litter and urine spray, you need a litter box enclosure that not only contains the mess but repels it. The New Age Pet ecoFLEX Habitat N’ Home Litter Look is durably constructed from an eco-friendly composite material that resists moisture, prevents odor absorption, and wipes clean.

This litter box enclosure features a simple but stylish design. The standard size measures about 23.6×18.5×22 inches with an 8×8-inch opening in the front for access.

The enclosed design of this piece helps contain litter scatter but the top few inches on either side are open which helps prevent odor accumulation inside the box. The front panel folds down to give you access to the litter box for cleaning and the sturdy top can be used as an end table.

Customers have commented that the unit is easy to assemble (with no tools required) and the moisture-resistant material means you can use it in the bathroom. Some users had trouble with urine being sprayed over the sides of the litter box itself, but you could place a pee pad or litter mat under the tray to further protect the base of the unit.

What We Liked:

• Made from sturdy, eco-friendly, recycled material
• Easy assembly, no tools required
• Contains litter scatter and prevents odor accumulation
• Available in two sizes and four different colors

What We Didn’t Like:

• Some cats may spray litter over the side of the tray
• May take some cats longer to get used to it

#6 Best In Design: tuft + paw Haven Litter Box Enclosure

A well-designed litter box enclosure should incorporate quality materials, a timeless design, and functional practicality. All of tuft + paw’s products are designed with aesthetics in mind, but they also incorporate thoughtful details cat owners appreciate.

The Haven litter box enclosure from tuft + paw features a simple, intuitive design that cats find easy to use and their owners find easy to look at. This enclosure is constructed from premium plywood with ash veneer and a white, semi-gloss metal ventilation panel on the front.

Your cat enters through an opening in the front left of the unit, stepping across a metal grate, into the litter box. The ventilated grate on the front facilitates air circulation while the grate on the floor helps prevent litter tracking. To clean the litter box, simply pull the handle on the drop-down front panel.

For its simplicity, it’s a little surprising that the Haven litter box enclosure is so expensive. At $699, we’d expect a few more bells and whistles but it does appear to be well-made and easy to use.

What We Liked:

• Timeless design with simple operation
• Constructed from premium plywood with ash veneer
• Ventilated front panel to facilitate air flow
• Easy access through a drop-down front panel

What We Didn’t Like:

• Significantly more expensive than many models
• Fairly simplistic for the price

#7 Best For Self-Cleaning Litter Boxes: Litter-Robot Litter Box Credenza

Many cat owners have made the switch to automatic and self-cleaning litter boxes like the Litter-Robot III Connect. These litter boxes take the hassle out of cleaning the litter box, which is great, but that convenience comes at a price. Not only are these litter boxes pricey, but they tend to be pretty big.

If you’re looking for a large litter box enclosure to accommodate a self-cleaning litter box but you want something that won’t detract from your home décor, Litter-Robot offers a selection of stylish litter box enclosures. This credenza features a modern farmhouse style with a white plank finish and it is specifically designed for the Litter-Robot III Connect.

Constructed from composite wood with white plank veneer, this credenza-style litter box enclosure measures 43.1×28.1×33.1 inches. The interior is incredibly spacious, making it perfect for large, enclosed, and automatic litter boxes. Depending what kind of litter box you use, you might even have leftover space to store accessories and extra litter.

Your cat enters through the open size of this credenza and you can access the interior space through any of three panels on the front. This piece of furniture is priced at $349 and it takes up a significant amount of space, but if you’re looking to conceal a very large litter box, it’s a great option.

What We Liked:

• Large enough to accommodate automatic litter boxes
• Stylish farmhouse design with white plank finish
• Three front panels for easy access to the litter box

What We Didn’t Like:

• Significantly more expensive than many options
• Takes up a significant amount of vertical and horizontal space

#8 Best For Small Spaces: Penn-Plax Contemporary Home Cat Litter Enclosure

Having a litter box is a necessity for cat owners, but that doesn’t mean you want to see it. And it definitely doesn’t mean you want it taking up valuable floor space in your home. If space is at a premium in your home, you might appreciate a space-saving enclosure like the Penn-Plax Contemporary Home Cat Litter Enclosure.

This litter box enclosure measures 37.7 inches high, 20 inches wide, and 15 inches deep. Your cat enters the bottom of the cabinet through an opening on either side and there’s an interior shelf above to store essentials like your litter scoop. This unit also has a storage drawer on the top of the unit.

To clean the litter box, you simply open the ventilated door on the front. The top of the enclosure can be used for potted plants or a lamp – it makes a great end table for the bedroom as well.

Customer reviews mention that the enclosure is fairly easy to assemble, but the material could be of higher quality. Because the size is so limited, it may not accommodate large cats or big litter boxes, but it may be good for a kitten or a small cat.

What We Liked:

• Space-saving design for small homes
• Interior storage shelf and extra drawer on top
• Two side entries for easy access for your cat
• Ventilated from door opens for easy access

What We Didn’t Like:

• Materials could be of sturdier quality
• May not be ideal for large cats

#9 Best For Large Litter Boxes: The Refined Feline Cat Litter Box Enclosure Cabinet

The Refined Feline litter box enclosure is definitely a premium pick, both in price and design. With its cottage-style design and mahogany finish, it is very pleasant to look at and easily blends with your whole-home décor.

This litter box enclosure comes in two sizes (large and x-large) and you can choose a variety of different finishes. Choose from mid-century feet, tulip feet, tapered feet, square feet, or no feet at all. The large size measures 27.5x28x20 inches while the x-large is 33.5×28.5×23 inches.

Because of its generous size, this enclosure is ideal for large litter boxes. The X-large size may even accommodate some automatic litter boxes.

In addition to functioning as a little box enclosure, this piece of furniture comes with an internal corrugated liner to help contain litter scatter and urine spray. You can purchase a separate litter catch to place outside the entrance, if you choose. Rear slots on the back of the unit facilitate air flow and can be used with carbon odor filters (not included).

Though you’ll pay a little over $300 for this enclosure, it comes with a variety of integrated features that many similar models don’t include. It’s a very large piece of furniture, so make sure you have the space to accommodate it, but if you’re looking for something with a luxe feel, this is a good option.

What We Liked:

• Interior plastic liner helps contain litter
• Top storage drawer conveniently holds litter box accessories
• Reversible walls allow for left or right entry
• Well-designed with sturdy materials, stylish design

What We Didn’t Like:

• Assembly instructions could be clearer
• Low entry may make litter scatter an issue

#10 Best Top Entry: Trixie 2-Story Litter Box Enclosure

Litter scatter is always a concern for cat owners but many find that switching to a top-entry litter box does the trick. Because your cat has to jump up to exit the litter box, some of the litter that clings to the paws falls back into the box or becomes trapped in the lid.

Top entry litter boxes are great, but most litter box enclosures aren’t designed to accommodate them. You can purchase a simple top entry litter box enclosure like this one from LitterWorks, but if you’re looking for something a little more stylish try this 2-story litter box enclosure from Trixie.

Available in espresso brown, white, and gray, this litter box enclosure looks like two stacked cubes with a two-story door on the front. Your cat enters the enclosure through a round opening on the upper level then hops down through another circular opening in the middle shelf to the litter box below. While not specifically designed for use with top-entry litter boxes, this enclosure should accommodate medium to large models like the Iris Top Entry Cat Litter Box.

This enclosure measures 20.75×23.5×35.25 inches and both interior spaces measure about 19x22x16.5 inches. One downside is that the middle shelf is not movable, so you’ll have to make sure your litter box fits inside the cabinet.

What We Liked:

• Space-saving design with two levels
• Accommodates medium to large top-entry boxes
• Available in three colors: brown, gray, and white

What We Didn’t Like:

• Materials could be of higher quality
• Urine sprayed over the side may accumulate in the bottom
