How often should you scoop the litter tray?

Scoop the litter tray at least once a day. This keeps smells down and gives your cat a clean place to go.

Cats are clean animals and avoid a dirty tray, so they may go elsewhere. Scooping daily keeps the tray inviting and limits smells. You also replace all the litter weekly.

  1. Scoop out clumps and droppings
  2. Put them in a bag with the general waste
  3. Top up with fresh litter
  4. Wash your hands afterwards
