I have admired the Cove Litter Box from Tuft+Paw since it was first released, but I recently had a chance to test it with my own cats and it truly exceeds all my expectations in terms of both quality and design. This thoughtfully designed litter box is beautifully constructed using top-quality materials. The heavy duty matte plastic feels solid and sturdy and when combined with the smooth, curved interior corners, it makes the Cove very easy to scoop and wipe clean as needed. The white matte portion is attached to a very sturdy dark grey base that has a non-slip bottom, altogether creating an extremely well-constructed litter box.
As I’ve written about before, the thing that makes me giddy is the compartment that holds the scoop and included dustpan and brush. These tools fit neatly inside a removable flexible liner that catches any excess litter, making it easy to keep things neat and tidy. This is such a beautifully designed feature, both aesthetically and functionally.
The Cove Litter Box includes an 8″ high translucent wall, called the Shelter, that you can use if you have cats who like to kick litter out of the box or if they stand while peeing. The details of the Shelter are also well-designed, eliminating any cracks where urine might get caught, instead directing it back into the box. These people really know cats!
And if you’re looking for a fantastic non-clay, clumping cat litter to use with the Cove Litter Box, check out Tuft+Paw’s brand new Really Great Cat Litter. This litter has a unique texture that’s soft on a cat’s paws but does not track. It’s made from five simple ingredients — soybean fiber, corn starch, corn flour, guar gum and charcoal — all completely non-toxic and safe for your cat and the environment. These ingredients make Really Great Cat Litter compostable and even flushable. Really Great Cat Litter is dust-free and fragrance-free and it is lighter weight than clay litter.

Looks like an excellent package all the way around! Thanks for sharing. I am, too.
Please do not use ‘safe to flush’ as a selling point to cat litter. Many cats carry the parasite for toxoplasmosis. While it does not harm cats, toxoplasma gondii can survive the water sewage treatments, and thus flushing their waste spreads this organism to the watershed. On the west coast of the United States sea otters and seals have been becoming infected with this parasite, and it is harmful to them. While this organism is also exposed to the watershed from wild cats in nature, it is not helping the situation by allowing more if it to enter our water from flushing cat waste. It is not safe to flush cat waste into a toilet unless a person gets their cat tested for toxoplasmosis, which almost never happens. Please quit advertising safe flushing, if you care at all about wildlife.
Thank you
You make a good point, I am well-aware of this issue, however Toxoplasmosis is only contracted by eating infected rodents, therefore indoor-only cats will not have it, making their waste safe to flush. Flushing litter is not recommended for indoor-outdoor cats who may have contracted Toxo from consuming an infected rodent and should be avoided in those cases.
We got one early and it lives up to the hype and was totally worth the money! Looks great, thoughtful design features, and, though it looks small, the dustpan/brush works well too. (Somehow my youngest cat manages to kick litter out the opening of the shield sometimes, but that’s on him!) The only thing I find challenging is lifting it when I’m doing a complete litter change out and scrub–it’s heavy. But problem solved by dumping the litter into one of our lighter boxes and putting it in the trash bag from there.
