Litter
How a litter mat cuts down tracking
Put a honeycomb mat where the cat's first steps leave the box. Granules fall through the holes instead of staying stuck to the paws and walking down the hall. Fine dust on wet paws can still get past, which is why a second mat by the door is worth it.
Where it should sit
The first two steps out of the box should land on the mat, not on bare floor. If the box is in a closet, the mat goes in that doorway. A mat across the room does not catch the tracking.
Clay, pellets, and dust
Clay and pellets both drop through the holes. Very fine dust clings when paws are damp. The mat is for tracking. It is not a bath mat, and it will not fix a box that is packed too full.
Empty it without a new mess
Lift the mat over a trash bin and pour when the pockets look full. Rinse with water and hang it to dry. Do not cut the honeycomb. A cut edge is sharp, and the mat is meant to be used whole.
