I like this product. It is a designer cat litter box. It has style. French chic. When you see it you wonder why no one’s designed one before. It fits in with modern luxury living. I would expected to do well in London, for example, where there are lots of expensive, interior design departments which are crying out for this sort of litter box.
It is the creation of SinDesign.com. It has a very catchy name: Poopoopeedo. This seems to be a reference to a Marilyn Monroe song, the name of which I have forgotten. I can see her singing it in my mind’s eye.
It comes in a variety of colours: black, white, green and red. The price is competitive at €79.90. There is worldwide delivery which I think is a wonderful thing because I would hope that there are a number of Americans who will take a fancy to this eye-catching litter box. It is from the heart of Europe and European products are attractive to many Americans.
Not only is it good-looking, it is also practical because it is covered, which prevents a lot of litter being kicked out of the box. In addition, the scoop is rather nicely stored away inside the litter box, under the lid. Further, there is a replaceable anti-odour tablet integrated within the lid.
This is what Stephanie Hager the owner of SinDesign said when she contacted me:
I would like to introduce our design cat litter box. Poopoopeedo is brand new on the market and already experience great success. It is 100% Made in France…It is for sure a nice product to introduce and talk about.Stephanie Hager, Owner, +33 6 52 40 90 25, http://www.sindesign.com

Looks cool to me as a human, but I’m not sure how cats feel about being enclosed in a small space like that while they do their business. I was always told cats don’t want to feel trap when they’re in that “vulnerable” state.
Yes, it depends on the cat. I have a covered litter box. My cats have used it just fine but I get your point. Some cats might have difficulties.
Micheal,
Does Gabriel like this new litter box? Your readers want to know….or at least, this one does.
Dear all,
Thank you for all your comments and involvement about PooPooPeeDo.
So here are some clues :
Yes PooPooPeeDo has been studied to fit big size cats up to Maincoon. Prototype has been studied in Royal Canin’s cattery south of France and product came out after very positive conclusions.
It is important to note also that the upper and lower part are not fixed stick together so there is absolutely no risk for the cat to find himself struggled inside, not been able to escape or breath in case of accident. PooPooPeeDo has also a paw shaped hole on the top to lift the upper part.
Michael, thanks for initiating the conversation with our pet lovers. Your PooPooPeeDo has been shipped and you will receive it soon, so you will be able to see, test and comment 🙂
Wonderfull day to all,
Stephanie Hager

Thanks for visiting and commenting Stephanie. Thanks too for replying to queries and for allowing me to test your classy cat litter box and review it. I’ll make a video and take some photos. It’ll be fun. Gabriel, my cat, likes his covered litter box. It’ll be fun to see how he responds to a new one.
Well fed American cats might not fit through that hole in the Poopoopeedo. I’m thinking of one in particular. Ha, ha.
Monty flings litter all over. I don’t care. It’s in his room, no one sees it but him and he does not mind. I vacuum it up now and then and he flings some more. I love watching him when he uses the leaf pile by the back fence outside. He doesn’t know I’m watching him from inside. Do other people enjoy watching their cat do his thing? The Poopoopeedo would prevent this– good for the cat though, I suppose. I try not to watch Monty in his box in case he would get upset at me and poop somewhere else in the house. Of course, he insists on being in the bathroom with me when I am taking care of business!
I’d be interested to know whether Stephanie who owns the company which makes this cat litter box has factored in the well-known fact that up to 50% of the American domestic cat population is overweight. That said quite a high percentage of the domestic cat population in the UK and I’m sure on the continent are also overweight so I suspect that they have. I would like Americans to buy this product although I’d like to make the point that I am not receiving any commission!
Betty Boop.
Is that the name of the song, Susan?
No, I believe the product name is a takeoff on “boop-boop-a-doop,” the signature catch phrase of Betty Boop

Brilliant 😉 .
Nice for a human eye, although I’m concerned of it’s small size. Smell and bacteria have a potential to concentrate quickly. Also be careful when start using – there is a similar looking plastic cat bed, looking like an egg, which has tendency to roll over covering the cat so they can’t escape. Owners were making a hole on the back of that egg-bed so a cat could escape.
To keep litter in a tray, one can try a tray with tall borders. Any plastic tray from a home shop will do – just cut an entrance, so a cat can come in. Also cats can dig a lot if it’s too much litter in the tray. Vary the amount of litter (more / less) and see if that changes the behaviour. xx
I liked the design 🙂 . That’s about it really! It does seem to be pretty practical though with a filter in the roof of the cat litter box and the scoop is also positioned in the same place. I wonder whether the filter is also a deodoriser and therefore smells because if it does it may not be ideal as I believe a cat litter box should really smell of the cat which draws the cat to it.
Absolutely, the design is nice! I agree, better without deodorizing. Give it a go, see how it goes. Just watch that it does not roll (it’s my biggest worry). xx
I am hoping she sends me one and then I’ll see how Gabriel gets on with it. He already uses a covered litter box. He is a very good litter box user.
Michael!
It may be attractive to humans, but… I wonder if cats would truly be attracted to this type box. We have huge litter boxes that have optional covers. We keep two covered, and one left open. They seem to like both types equally well- but what makes their kitty mom very happy is that there is very little litter spilled on the floor due to the height, and since they are macho kitties- they prefer to stand up to do their thing:)
But it is quite an unusual and attractive creation – for their guardians at least.
Trying Poopoopeedo is adopting it, for our felines as well as their dear parents.

Yes, good point Jo. It is eye catching for humans but is it practical and do cats like it? I think it’ll be fine to be honest. I hope I get the chance to trial one.
Michael, it is very nice. I have a covered litter box and my “kids” still manage to kick out litter! It does have a filter in the lid as well. They need to make a blue one! ♥♥♥
I like your idea that they need to make a blue one. We’ll have to mention that to them.
You say you get… BLUE is also available on our website : http://www.sindesign.com 🙂
I must have missed that. Sorry. We like blue ; ) .
