Please note: If the potty is left open to the elements, please replace the litter as
soon as possible if it becomes saturated so that the potty can continue to function
as designed.
Set Up
1.
Place your Pet Patio Potty
in as protected an area as possible so as to avoid
unnecessary exposure to environmental elements (i.e rain, snow and wind).
Polyethylene “feet” have been attached to the bottom of the potty to assure
that the bottom of the box frame is not allowed to sit on a moist surface.
2.
Purchase a litter product of your choice. A clumping style kitty litter is
recommended because it makes clean up easier. Also, a litter that has odor
control properties can be very beneficial, particularly for those potties set up
indoors. We recommend either Tidy Cats Scoop for Multiple Cats with Tidy Lock
technology for antimicrobial odor control or Dr Elsey’s Precious Cat Ultra. With
the trays removed from the frame, distribute a generous layer of litter around
the blocks and over the entire bottom surface of the box.
3.
Using the “Handle Screws” provided, attach two handles to each of the trays.
The trays are pre-drilled to facilitate handle attachment.
4.
With the handles facing upward, insert the
trays in the box frame The four trays should
be oriented in such a way that the handles are
positioned along the outside edge of the box
rather than in the center of the box. If you
have ordered synthetic K9Grass as the
substrate and are receiving two double sized
trays, then the trays should be positioned so
that the handles are on the left and right sides
of the potty.
5.
If you have decided to use gravel as the substrate in the trays: Obtain gravel
from your local landscape supply center or home supply store such as Home
Depot. For small dogs it is typically best to use pea gravel that is 1/2” in
diameter and for larger dogs gravel that is ¾” in diameter is probably most
appropriate. This gravel may also be called river rock. Do not use decorative
stone that has sharp edges. Each standard size tray (this is the tray size used
in the medium size model when four trays are provided) requires approximately
0.16 cubic feet of gravel and each double sized tray requires about 0.32 cubic
