My cat box is in the basement and it seems the oder sometimes gets
into the air blower. Would it hurt anything if I sprayed the air
filter with Febreeze or some other air freshener? Since the air is
blowing out of the blower into the filter I don't see how this could
hurt anything. My only concern is during the winter when the
furnace goes on that if the air freshener is flammable it could
ignite.

Thanks!!

Hi,
Relocate the litter box. Be logical. I have 3 cats in the house,
litter box is on the main floor far from return air duct.
Also I clean the box twice a day every day.


I almost made the mistake of putting the cat box in the basement -
then good sense came back. I put a cat door in the garage to
livingroom doorway and stuck the box in the garage where it belongs.
Clean every day, change the litter every week and no problems.


Hi,
In my climate that is not an option. In winter it gets as low as
-35C(wind chill upto -50s in C) Can't have such set up. My family
always have had pets. Always neutered or spayed. Now we have 3
adorable cats(two Bengalis cross sisters and an older male tabby) and
a dog.


No basement Tony? I lived in a place such as yours but it only got to
-30F :-) I always left the basement door ajar but closed. Cats would all
put paw under door and pull open. Cats go to basement, up on cabinet,
jump up to platform put inside of sill window slider. I replaced one side
of the slider with PT plywood and an oval hole with plastic interlocking
triangle pcs specifically for it.

I think you can actually but a window, with frame and flap, that replaces
the basement sill pop out window. Little pricey though.
