The sides are pretty tall, but they can jump. Seems they already
prefer the huge 100+ quart Sterilite box for a litter box. I was
using one of those grocery store style maroon litter boxes (Hartz I
guess). Had to clean the sides every few days. I guess that proves it
stays clean not because of the litter I'm using. If there is a next
time for raising kittens, I'll look for a Sterilite (polyethylene)
box, the shiny smooth clear type, with low sides. I don't know what
sort of plastic they use for ordinary litter boxes, but apparently
it's not polyethylene. I haven't tried any of the colored Sterilite
boxes. Just can't beat the thing staying clean.

These are what we use for our 4 cats. No more urinating over the sides
among other things. :)

The clear Sterilite boxes with shiny smooth sides are
self-cleaning, too. That is just amazing IMO. There is an
extremely fine coat of dust, but that's it. Nothing else stays
stuck to the sides.

If they are like my four, you want to place lots of stuff in the box that
the cats think will be destroyed by urin, too. - You have to sucker them to
go in the box to begin with......

My cats took to the totes right off. I just put the litter in them and
placed them where they're old letterboxes were. :)

Stinks like **** though, don't it? Or are you also the owner of an inside dog? Most of them are litter-browsers and will make short order of any kat droppings in a micro-second.

I took care of friends' indoor cats for two weeks while they were on
vacation. They have several cats and use shredded paper instead of litter.
The stench inside that house was almost unbearable. Shredded paper does not
eliminate odor!
