Litter boxes are a pain to clean, so I got the litter robot 3 when I got my second cat because it was a lot of scooping. It basically looks like a cat spaceship. And as neat as it looks, I really wanted to find a way to conceal it.

However, the litter box enclosures that the company that makes litter robot has are very expensive… they are at least $499…

Additionally, it’s really hard to find a cheap litter box enclosure that can fit the litter robot because it’s HUGE. Therefore, I made my own DIY hack.

Steps

First, I did A LOT of research. Eventually, I found an IKEA kitchen corner base cabinet that I turned upside down that could fit the litter robot that was only $90!

Then, I cut out a box on the side for the cats to be able to get in and out. At first, I used a miter saw, but it got too close to the edge. So, I ended up using a jig saw with a jig saw guide to cut the square out.

Next, this step is optional. I had upgraded my guest bathroom vanity countertop with this marble epoxy kit. I had a lot left over, so I also used that to do the top of my litter box enclosure.

Lastly, I used peel and stick wallpaper to cover the door to give it a little bit of pop.

Now, I do not have to look at the litter box, but I still have a door to open it and clean out the litter box!
