To ask where you keep your cat litter?

[TheUnexpectedPickle]

Person 1 keeps cat litter on the bathroom with the logic that it's next to the toilet where the humans poo, so all pooing is done in one room.

Person 2 found out and stated that person 1 is weird and gross, as cat litter should be kept in the hallway, because it gets more ventilation and no one baths or showers there.

The cat doesn't care (but does enjoy taking a massive shit as soon as someone runs a bath, so maybe person 2 has a point)

Who is right?

Cat litter IN the bathroom.

Keeping it on the bathroom would BU.

Ours is a mixture- it's in the utility, so ventilation as the back door is often open. But the bathroom is adjacent to the utility so everyone poops within a few feet of each other.

Are either of the people in your scenario not resident at the house? If so, they can butt out.

It’s in our downstairs toilet.

Are you talking about the bags of cat litter or the tray the cat litter is put in?

Our litter tray is by the back door and the bags are on the opposite side of back door.

more ventilation = wafting the smells, urine molecules etc into the rest of the house so I vote bathroom.

Use an extractor fan.

Mine’s in a small under stairs cupboard with a cat flap in the door.

Litter tray has filters and is cleaned regularly.

I don’t think it matters as long as it’s cleaned regularly

Bathroom. Hallway is a weird place to keep it - greeted by it every time you come in the house, and cat is going to get disturbed by people walking past all the time!

In the cupboard under the stairs.

Litter tray you mean?

Down stairs loo.
We're lucky enough that it's quite roomy and there's space for the humongus bloody tray which Dcat2 prefers

If we didn't have a downstairs loo i'd have it in the hall. Under the stairs maybe.

I wouldn't do bathroom or kitchen.

Utility room

I use the wood pellets litter and there's zero urine odour btw.

Poos picked picked up asap obvs.

Litter tray?

One in the bathroom behind the door and another in the very large hall cupboard

Bathroom is good but if you have the kind of cat that throws litter around then it's not nice to step on litter when you're fresh out the shower!
Mine are in the hall by the front door, hidden under a desk so not easily noticeable and apart from leaving or arriving home no one walks past.

In the hall, next to the front door. But it's lidded with filters and cleaned out daily.

Conservatory. But it's literally the Cats room plus I have no where else to put it really

Downstairs toilet but reckon the understairs cupboard with cat flap is a genius idea!

In the utility room out of the way. I think the bathroom would be better than the hall in this case as it’s out the way

Downstairs loo which is off the utility. I don't like it there but it's the most out of the way place. I wouldn't want it in the hallway, but then our hallway isn't big enough.

I wouldn't want it in the bathroom. Downstairs toilet would be ok. I used to keep it in the utility room.

It goes in the futility room.. the most logical place.

Our house is on 3 levels so I have it in bathroom on top floor, and also in downstairs hall 🤷‍♀️

Not helpful

I did read that there should be a litter tray on every floor but I figured you shouldn't believe everything you read on the internet.

If I was to reduce to one tray I'd prefer to lose the bathroom tray, but the cats bedroom (I share with them) is upstairs, and I think they would be more likely to be caught short in the night. Who knows?

House number one, we kept it in the downstairs toilet as it was out of the way and easy to use window as ventilation.

House number two, we put the tray in the utility room (in fact the whole room was referred to as “milos room” 😆).

House number three, it’s in the corner of the kitchen diner 🤔. No utility room and downstairs loo doesn’t have a window. No room anywhere else. It’s fine, gets scooped daily and is moved when we have visitors.

I can’t articulate why, but putting it in the bathroom seems wrong somehow 🤷🏽‍♀️.

When mine was in my old bathroom I used to like that my cat would come and wee at the same time as me!😁Since I've moved house my bathroom is a lot more wet everywhere (needs a new fan and it generally feels dirty in there as it needs a refurb) so instead I put a catflap in by basement and put it down there. The hallway seems to lack privacy for your cat so I'd say bathroom unless it gets too damp. Cat poo doesn't gross me out though
