Abstract: A deodorizing device for use in a pet's litter box, for example. The deodorizing device has a container body having an open end, a closed end and a cylindrical side wall defining a cavity therein. Chunks of zeolite are disposed within the cavity and retained within the container body by a sealing mechanism. The cylindrical side wall of the container body has a plurality of substantially uniform-sized apertures disposed thereon to permit exposure of the retained zeolite to the odors. A sealing mechanism may be permanently or releasably attached to the container body. A securing mechanism secures the deodorizing device to a structure within the malodorous environment. The zeolite after use can be recharged by exposing to fresh air, sunlight and heat and then reused. In addition to being used in a pet's litter box, the device can be used in many environments, including animal containment areas, living areas, production areas, food storage areas, work areas and automobiles.
