faq's

Why choose a stainless steel litter box?

Plastic litter boxes can scratch, stain and hold onto odours over time. Our premium stainless steel is non-porous, rust-resistant and ultra-easy to clean, so there are fewer places for bacteria and smells to linger.

It’s a cleaner, longer-lasting solution for your cat (and it looks pretty good in your home too.)

Do stainless steel litter boxes help with odour?

They sure do. Stainless steel doesn’t absorb urine, bacteria or odours the way plastic can, helping your litter box stay fresher for longer. Regular scooping and cleaning are still important—the box does a lot of the heavy lifting, but your cat will appreciate a clean bathroom too.

Will my litter box rust?

Our litter boxes are crafted from premium, high-grade stainless steel designed to resist rust and moisture. For the longest life, dry the box thoroughly after washing and avoid harsh chemicals, steel wool or abrasive scrubbers.

How long will a stainless steel litter box last?

With proper care, a quality stainless steel litter box can last for 10 years or more. That means fewer plastic boxes going to landfill and no replacing a smelly, scratched tray every year. It’s designed to be your cat’s forever litter box.

Do I need to use a litter liner?

Nope. The smooth stainless steel surface is easy to scoop, rinse and wipe clean, so liners aren’t necessary. That means one less ongoing expense and a lot less plastic waste.

What type of litter can I use?

Our standard litter boxes work with most common cat litters, including clumping, crystal, paper and pellet varieties. If you prefer quicker clean-up, choose the sieve made for your litter: our clumping-litter sieve separates clean litter from clumps, while our wood-pellet sieve lets used pellets break down into sawdust and fall into the lower tray. Always check the individual product page to make sure you’re choosing the right setup.

How do I clean my litter box?

Scoop daily to keep things fresh. For a deeper clean, empty the litter, rinse the box with warm water, wash it with a mild pet-safe detergent and a soft cloth or sponge, then rinse thoroughly and allow it to dry completely before adding fresh litter. Avoid bleach, harsh chemicals, steel wool and abrasive scrubbers, as these can damage the surface.

Are the litter boxes scratch-proof?

Our premium stainless steel is highly scratch-resistant and won’t develop the deep, bacteria-trapping grooves commonly found in plastic litter boxes. Like any surface, abrasive cleaning tools may leave cosmetic marks, so we recommend using a soft cloth or non-abrasive sponge.

Which litter box is right for my cat?

Every cat has their own toilet preferences—because of course they do. When choosing a box, consider your cat’s size, mobility, digging habits and whether they prefer an open or enclosed space. You can take our online quiz or chat with us before ordering, and we’ll happily point you in the right direction.

Which box is best for a large cat or multi-cat household?

Our XXL litter boxes are designed for larger breeds, including Maine Coons and Ragdolls, as well as homes with more than one cat. They provide extra room to turn, dig and get comfortable without feeling crowded.

Do you have a litter box for senior cats or cats with limited mobility?

Yes. Our Low Entry Round Litter Box offers easier access for senior cats, smaller cats and cats who find high sides difficult to step over.

What is included with my litter box?

Inclusions vary between styles. Depending on the model, your box may include a stainless steel scooper, high-wall lid, paw-cleaning step, litter-trapping mat or sieve trays. Please check the “What’s Included” section on the product page before ordering.

What if my cat needs time to adjust?

Some cats hop straight in. Others like to inspect anything new as though it may be a trap. Place the new box in your cat’s usual litter area and use the same litter they already know. If needed, leave the old and new boxes side by side for a few days while they adjust. Keeping the new box clean and easy to access can also help.

I love this litter box!

I love this litter box! Good quality and design. I can’t fault it.

Purchased this litterbox to use with wood pine pellets. I have never used the sifting function. My 4kg ragdoll won't use it when the plastic is clipped on top because she doesn’t fit inside so would just go on the floor beside it. I've had to completely remove the plastic clip for this reason. The only part I use of this litter box now is 1 metal tray and the scoop. Wish I got the larger one without the sifting function

Hi Jess, thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry this size wasn’t suitable for your Ragdoll and that you haven’t been able to use the full setup as intended. Normally this size suits cats up to 7kg. Some cats do prefer the extra space and they may not enjoy the curved lid, which is to stop the high peeing cats.

This particular sieve is designed for clumping litter rather than wood pine pellets. We do also offer a slide-out sieve litter box that was designed specifically for wood pellets, which may have been a better match for your preferred litter.

We completely understand your disappointment that the overall setup hasn’t worked for your cat. Please contact us at hello@barelytherelitter.com.au so we can review your order and see how we may be able to help with a more suitable option.

Not a brilliant choice ...

I don't like the grey .. I bought it for the functionality. I didn't pick the black because of its known toxity. You end up scooping as usual, because it's impractical to be constantly sieving the big tray. In order to do so you have to unclip the plastic top and have space around it enough to pick up the top sieve and tip it into something without making a mess .. if I could I'd return it and get the circular one .. at least it looks good.

Hi Catherine, thank you for sharing your honest feedback. We’re sorry the design and grey colour haven’t met your expectations.

For clarity, both our grey and black lids are made from the same virgin ABS formulation using compliant pigments. The black version is not made from recycled electronic plastics and is not considered more toxic than the grey option.

The sieve is designed as an optional way to separate and retain clean clumping litter during a more thorough litter change, rather than something that needs to be used for every daily clean. We understand, however, that lifting the sieve requires some surrounding space and may not suit every household or cleaning routine.

Please contact us at hello@barelytherelitter.com.au with your order details so we can review your situation and discuss whether the round litter box may be a more suitable addition to your set up.

Love love love these. A great size, and they look soooo much nicer than the 5 bulky plastic cat litter boxes we initially had. Our 4 cats love them, and they’re nice and spacious for our 6kg Bengal and 7kg ginger boy.

Probably the best litter related purchase I’ve made in a LONG time

Probably the best litter related purchase I’ve made in a LONG time.

My cat is a digger, he violently hurries his business and it can be so hard to keep the area clean when he’s flinging litter around the place.

This litterbox is deep, large and the open lid is perfect for him!

He can dig to his hearts content and not waste excessive amounts of litter while doing so.

Stainless steel paired with a tofu litter has been the combo of the century. Litter odour is essentially non existent.

Stainless steel is scratch resistant, but he digs at the box so much that unfortunately I do already see some scratch marks. However, being stainless steel it’s not the same issue you’d get with plastic where it’s porous and harbours bacteria growth.

The step catches excess litter, and the sieve is helpful, however I think depending on the litter you use, could be a bit difficult to make work as efficiently. It works decently with tofu litter, though I think the grating being a teeny bit larger would make a worlds difference in efficiently sieving.

Overall, this wasn’t just a purchase, but an investment. My cat is VERY young and I can see this set up lasting him for life.

much better than old tray

much better than old tray. Almost all litter stays in this one, thoroughly recommend.
Only reasons not five stars, the sifter is awkward to use and the kitties STILL manage to throw a tiny amount out.

Cats and I are absolutely enjoying the new litter box

Cats and I are absolutely enjoying the new litter box. Doesn’t stain, or marks from scratching. Because of those things it doesn’t smell either. Much easier to clean than plastic boxes.
Def worth every cent.

Game changer!

Makes keeping the box clean so much easier. The only issue we have found is that the trays fit together so tightly it can be a little work to separate them to sift. Worth it though :)
