litterbox
Indoor cat latrine
A litterbox is a container filled with absorbent granular material where indoor cats urinate and defecate.
The box requires regular cleaning—scooping waste and periodically replacing the litter.
The cat won't use a dirty litterbox.
Also spelled as two words: litter box.
