cat box

Indoor pet latrine

A cat box is a container filled with absorbent material where indoor cats urinate and defecate.

Also called a litter box.

The term appears in compounds: I need to clean the cat box, cat box filler.

Figuratively, something described as smelling like a cat box is unpleasantly pungent.
