LPT Request: How can I prevent my cat from spreading litter all over my house? Cat (M5) has never been a cleanly cat. He just doesn’t care. Which is fine, I just don’t like stepping in litter across the house in the kitchen and my 2yr old picks up when she sees it. He uses an automatic litter box which uses the “crystally” litter. Some of which is clear, so you can barely even see it on the floor. The room that houses the …
