Doesn’t work for my high peeing cat.
My girls don’t like closed boxes although they will tolerate them. But we started getting tired of constantly taking the lid off. So one day we left the lid off and found a puddle of pee behind the litter box. It’s then that we realized we have a resident high pee-er. And then I caught Willow in the act. She’s a strange little cat to begin with but this is yet another one if her quirks. When she squats to pee she lifts her butt up right at the end and pees right above the wall of the box.
So I got this litter box and I thought it would work well, but even with the extended sides it’s not high enough for Willow.
But I love the size of this box since it’s small and we have a small bathroom. It fits perfectly and I’m determined to make it work. So thankfully I found some plastic Pee guards online. They will extend the height of the sides and then all should be fine. In the meantime I took a garbage bag and extended the sides and it’s working well as a temporary fix until the pee guards arrive (see photo- 2nd photo is the culprit).
Update: my pee guards arrived and they are perfect so I get to keep the box. All kitties and humans are happy!

Not as long as advertised - doesn't fit my cat
Reviewed in the United States on January 11, 2017
I really wanted to like it, but even the length of the outside of the box (including the rims) is a bit less than 19in. The inside is about 16in in length. My cat is 16in from the neck (from where her collar sits) to her bottom. That means that if she goes in the box straight, not diagonally, she pees on the rim! And the pee slowly seeps down the front of the box and under it... every day. I tried to find a bigger open top box from IRIS but couldn't find one. I thought I'll try it some more and I was able to kind of contain the situation by using a liner bag in the box and pulling the bag's sides up around the rim. This made like a little "pee catching moat" around the box. But that means when I cleaned the box I had to check the moat for pee and gather it with paper towels & wipe everything with wet wipes. Today I give up. My cat is a big thrower of litter out of the box. That's why I wanted the tall shield but with an open top, since I know cats don't appreciate the closed ones. But this one is not the right now. Switching back to her old box (longer, though not shielded high enough). At least, sweeping litter everyday is easier than cleaning the pee moat. Still searching for the perfect litter box...
