High Sided Containment for Active Diggers
Anti-splashing litter boxes prioritize vertical height to prevent litter scatter and spray. These designs feature raised walls that act as a physical barrier for cats that kick substrate or stand while urinating. The open-top format ensures easy access for the cat while keeping the surrounding floor clean.
Most models in this category utilize a semi-enclosed or high-shield structure. This allows for better airflow compared to fully hooded boxes while still providing the containment benefits of a deep pan.
Dimensions and Entry Styles
Selecting the right fit depends on the cat's size and mobility. These listings include jumbo and extra-large options suitable for multi-cat households or larger breeds.
- Extra large pans measuring up to 24.2 in length
- High side walls reaching 13.98 in to block debris

- Sifting scoops included with specific semi-enclosed kits
Maintenance and Placement
The smooth plastic surfaces and rounded corners of these pans facilitate quick scooping. For the best results, place these boxes against a wall or in a corner to further stabilize the high-sided shields. Open the specific brand pages for SpaceTime or LoopTime to compare the exact height of the entry lip against the total wall height.
