You love your cat, but you do not love your cat’s litter box. It’s an age old story. (Okay, litter boxes have only been around since the 20th century, but it’s at least a several-decades-old story.)
How to hide that pesky litter box?
There are actually lots of funky litter box ideas out there, but this one may be my favorite:
The Potted Plant Hidden Cat Litter Box
Where’s the box? Why, under the plant of course!
“The litter box to humans looks like a planter when turned around towards the corner of the wall. Your pets will be able to crawl inside the base of the planter and use it as a litterbox with great privacy. The base can also be lined with bedding to use as a pet bed instead. Vented design and filter controls dust and odor! Comes complete with plant, filter and moss just add litter.”
Currently on sale for $70 through Amazon:

Tired of messy accidents when you’re bagging your dog’s waste? Then perhaps you need to take the K92 Pooper Scooper on your walks!
“The K92 is a totally new system for collecting dog mess, designed for use in the garden, yard or kennel. It eliminates the difficulty and unpleasantness of picking up after your dog.
There is no need to bend, no carrying of dirty bags and no need to clean it. The poop is collected into a bag and hygienically stored until it can be disposed of into a suitable bin. Used correctly, the K92 will stay clean.”
Okay, so it might be a bit unwieldy to carry with you on walks or to do the dog park, but I can certainly see it being handy for cleaning up the yard and garden.
More information (there are even movies!) on the company’s site:

Did you know hampsters can be potty trained? Their natural instinct is to eliminate in one specific area, so you can teach them to use a corner of their cage, or better yet a “hampster potty.”
Just as cats learn to use a litter box, hampsters can learn to use a box such as this one. This makes clean-up less of a chore and gives them a little privacy to do their jobs.
The potty shown here is $4 from Cool Pet Stuff.

If you’ve got a pampered pet styling in the latest and trendiest collar, leash, and maybe even clothes, there’s no quicker way to ruin that posh look than by whipping out a recycled Safeway bag to scoop up your pooch’s droppings. Those flimsy bags always seem to have a hole in them, too, so count on a mess.
If you want a prettier, cleaner, and even nicer smelling poop bag, check out these Wag Bags.
The colorful bags are shaped like a plastic mitt, so you can pick up the mess, flip the mitt inside out so it becomes a container, then toss it in the nearest dumpster. The bags are 100% biodegradable (I bet Safeway can’t say the same of their plastic bags), and they’re even lemon scented for the owner’s smelling pleasure. Mmm.
