Why it matters
Tevila's XL box is open on top with high sides and a deep basin, so big cats and Maine Coons can turn and dig without a hood. It's 22.8 x 14.5 in and 10.2 in tall.
Open boxes air out better than covered ones.
Who it's for, and who should skip it
Good fit if
- Hood-averse cats
- Big cats
- Diggers
Look elsewhere if
- Cats that need a self-cleaning box
- Kittens with high entries
- Very large cats in small boxes
Pros and cons
Pros
- Open top
- High sides
- Deep basin
Cons
- No privacy
- Some scatter
- Heavy
Limitations to weigh
- Keep one box per cat plus one, in quiet spots away from food.
- Aim for a box about 1.5 times your cat's length; bigger is almost always better.
- Switch boxes gradually: put the new box beside the old one for a week.
