Open cat toilets are very common and are the first choice for beginners. Some people buy cat litter boxes for pets, while others use human washbasins or even cardboard boxes as cat litter boxes. When using an open cat toilet, the smell of poop and urine can easily spread, but it is also easy for the odor to dissipate through the air, so it should be placed in a ventilated place in summer.

2. Deodorizing closed cat toilets
Closed cat toilets often give people the illusion that the odor will not spread because they are closed. However, experienced cat owners have found that although the odor does not spread quickly, it is also difficult to evaporate. Not only is the smell in the toilet unbearable for cats, but the odor concentration in the air around the cat litter box is also higher than in open cat toilets. Many cats are reluctant to go to closed cat toilets in summer.
