Alternative to Kattbank...

Try outofsightlitterbox.com. As long as you don't mind scooping (and have a little space to store it), it's a *great* solution for keeping the litter box discreet, containing odor, and preventing litter being tracked around the house.

My cat always bolted out of traditional litter trays at high speed, as if embarrassed, scattering litter (and sometimes other stuff :\ ) *everywhere*. Even full of litter, lightweight litter trays often went flying across the floor too. But, try as he might, he's never managed to track litter outside the Out Of Sight box in the 12+ months I've owned it. The 2-tier design involves a turn, so he has to enter/exit more sedately and walk over the two litter "tracking pads", which wipe his feet clean. Each week I just shake out the two pads to get rid of trapped litter, and give the inside surfaces a quick wipe with a disinfectant surface cleaner for good measure -- the thing looks (and smells!) like new, no lingering odor problems, etc. It's self-assembly but well designed and very solid once put together -- no squeaky, flimsy hinges or dodgy panels.

The concept is exactly the same as the Kattbank, only affordable by regular people ($100-ish), not just those with more money than sense! Sure, it's melamine and not custom, hand-crafted hardwood furniture, but it's still a quality product. I probably sound like one of their sales people, maybe I should ask for commission, hah!
