I LOVE this idea! Not sure exactly what you mean by using the "entrance" from the box. - Can you please explain? I think I fond the folding storage bench you're talking about at JC Penny's on line...the Cooper Folding Double Ottoman. What are the dimensions of yours? http://www.jcpenney.com/jcp/X6.aspx?GrpTyp=PRD&ItemID=1a31980&deptid=71371&SO=0&Ne=4294957900+5+1545&NOffset=0&catid=78794&N=4294938448&Nao=0&PSO=0&bcCat=4&CmCatId=EXTERNAL|78794 Thanks for any input. »

Elisa Edkins_Proctor It's around 16" tall by 30" long and the width is around 15". I used the entrance of the old regular cat litter box (like a plastic archway) to fit inside the hole I cut out. Hope that helps! I have to say I don't have any issue with trailing cat litter as the cat walks across a small mat before getting out. Nobody even knows it's a litter box and I don't have the eyesore of my old litter box in the bathroom anymore!

Clever DIYer Elisa Proctor solved the litter box problem herself for about 40 bucks. "I was sick of seeing the regular-type cat litter box in my very small bathroom in my apartment ... plus litter everywhere ... so I started thinking outside the box ... so to speak," she writes. When she found this bench ottoman for under $40, the wheels started spinning.

I wanted something with a lid and found at canadian tire a foldable bench/ottoman for $40! I used a knife to cut a hole on the side and used the "entrance" from the original box. Inside I lined it with plastic and put in the litter box and a mat to trap the litter. Now it just look like a bench in my hallway!
