  • Patent number: 4981104
    Abstract: A disposable kitty litter tent with a moisture-resistant cardboard base and a paper tent which may be folded flat against the base for shipment and sale, which also performs deodorizing and flea repellant functions, by use of a thin layer of cedar sawdust secured to the inner walls of the tent by the mild adhesive. The cedar sawdust deodorizes the kitty litter tent against odors generated by cat wastes. The cedar sawdust also gradually rubs off against the cat's fur as the cat moves within the tent, particularly when the cat turns around to exit the single opening in one end of the tent, so that the cat receives a flea repellant benefit even when away from the tent, from the thin layer of cedar sawdust which accumulates upon its fur.
