What This Dresser Is Hiding Is Practical, Cool, And Perfect For Your Cats

If you have a cat, you know how great it is to come home to their fluffy face every day…but coming home to a smelly house, cat litter tracked around, and a nasty litter box? Not quite as awesome.


Redditor Oddly_Specific and his wife came up with a genius solution to the unsightly and stinky litter box problem they had because of their multiple cats. They purchased an old dresser at a recycling center for only $45 and made it into a secret litter box hideaway, keeping their house clean and their cats happy. Check out how they did it below.

I love my cat, but I’m always embarrassed when guests come over and my litter box is out in the open. This is an awesome way to keep the house clean and pretty. This project doesn’t seem too difficult to execute, either. Would you try this in your home?
