This was very disappointing. I have 5 cats so I have 5 litter boxes throughout the house. I've had cats (no, not this one, sorry, Guinness) for 25 years. I empty the drawers twice a day and only use clay-type organic fillers (WBCL and Swheat). The bottom line is that I've had a lot of experience with horrible litter boxes and poorly designed litter boxes. I solved the cardboard problem by using Rubbermaid Roughneck storage boxes and cutting holes in one end. The mat problem persists. The reason I bought this Kitty Fresh rug is because I have 2 other similar rugs from different manufacturers and I really like the material. The foam ribs keep dirt completely off my carpet. It's just that Kitty Fresh was the only brand I could find without a color swatch to match the rug - I want the rug to be more or less invisible on the beige rug. I needed a boring colored toilet rug and Kitty Fresh made one in beige. Unfortunately, this Kitty Fresh rug has 3 disadvantages: First, it is thin and flexible. I need something stronger so I can easily slide it under the end of the tray to keep it a bit stiff. It's lightweight, so it shouldn't be stiffer than a few sheets of newspaper, but this rug is like trying to slide a pillowcase off one end. This doesn't happen. Second, too big plastic knobs between the ribs. My other rugs have ridges that are about 1/16 inch wide. This Kitty Fresh foam pad has nearly twice the dimples, which doesn't feel like anything big or subtle. from the mat back to the tray. The oversized connecting pits on this mat fully wedge the putty into it, so they cannot be easily shaken off and must be removed by hand. With higher quality mats, I can easily get them out from under the crate and shake them back into the crate, either by rolling them back and forth at an angle, or by holding them over the crate and bending them back to loosen any dirt stuck between the foam ridges. Literally takes 2 seconds and I can push back the clean carpet. With this rug, pulling out that limp rag and shaking it out on your own is a chore. Then bring it to the window and you'll see that all the stuck debris is still there. The third downside is the packaging: the mat is almost the same size. Bath towel, but it's forever folded into a tiny little square made up of 12 separate sections. I actually cut this giant rug in two because I have another one that I did the same thing with and it makes it easy and simple to slip one end under the tray and pull it out. With this Fresh Kitty rug, each half of the original giant rug has 6 permanently folded sections that fold up and down. It's harmony if you try to place it at the end of the box. This makes it easy to trip when driving past. It's designed to never lie flat. So much for "disappearing" in an ugly beige carpet. The only reason I kept this was because I absolutely hated my previous 3 PetFusion cat litter mats (SmartGrip, my ass**) and was willing to do anything to get rid of them ASAP. I don't like sucking every day! At Petsmart I bought a better quality mat of the same size made by Petsmart which was rolled into a tube with different patterns. After a headache with PetFusion mats having to be swept up with a dustpan and broom several times a day, I was amazed at how easy the Petsmart mat was to clean the trays! I just wish they made an ugly beige to match my ugly rug, but the design is cute and the product is MUCH better. A direct comparison easily shows that the Fresh Kitty rug is cheaply made at the same price. I have a smaller similar rug in big lots, it is also higher quality but no design choice. So I'll be buying another Petsmart mat, even if it just draws more attention to my trays, at least it won't be as disruptive as PetFusion or Kitty Fresh mats for the same price. You can simply cut it into 2 pieces or buy a smaller size that is also rolled up. This Fresh Kitty rug is terrible.
