Construction manual Litterbox


Here we present the construction of our Litterbox short and animate for you to rebuild.

The following materials are needed:

  • Baseplate 80 x 50
  • Rear wall 80 x 50
  • Side part twice per 50 x 50
  • Split lid
    • Fixed part 80 x 20
    • Hinged part 80 x 30
  • Split Front
    • Narrow board 80 x 15
    • Board with opening 80 x 35

All measurements are, of course, in centimeters, in our whelping box we used solid wood in 19 mm thickness.

Now to building:

  • Basically, all the boards are attached to the base plate. Anyone who wants to, can glue everything together, but we screwed everything.
  • First, all the boards are cut to the proper size as described in the chart above. The rear wall must be cut narrowly, minus the sidewall strength.
  • In the side parts a groove is now introduced with the circular saw. Alternatively, strips may be made in any thickness. -> to keep the two front boards together.
  • Deburr all boards with sandpaper and a sanding block, also the surfaces if necessary.
  • In the bottom plate, Sidewalls and the fixed part of the lid are placed near the edge of the required holes.
  • Drill holes with a countersink best short for deburring both sides or edit. so that the boards can be bolted flush on one side.
  • In the large front board the opening is now marked for the cat according to their own imagination and cut out with a jigsaw.
  • Also deburring and grinding this passage is important, so that no cathair gets caught in it.
  • varnish all boards .
  • Assembling.

we have assembled our litter box, before painting again and all the edges and the passage were processed by the router -> ..

Have fun rebuilding our litter box!
