Your cat utilizes her litter box on a daily basis, and really needs you to help keep it a clean and healthy place for her to visit. How can you do this?

Since it’s used each and every day, it will need attention this frequently as well. Scoop out anything your cat leaves behind during the day, and assess the remaining litter. You will likely need to change all the litter and do a thorough cleaning of the litter box on a weekly basis, but this may be more frequent depending on your cat’s use. Be sure to thoroughly wash and sanitize the litter box during these cleanings, and reassemble everything once it is completely dry. Add in new, fresh litter to ensure that your pet is able to stay away from harmful bacteria. For more information, please contact your local Ingersoll, IA vet clinic.
