How to hack an Ikea cabinet so that it hides a litter box!

1

Assemble the cabinet that you will be using to conceal the litter box. I used the IKEA PS cabinet.

2

All pet doors should come with a template. Cut the template out (if needed) and tape it where you would like the pet door to be on your cabinet. Using a pencil, trace around the template onto the cabinet.

3

Using a drill and a metal drill bit, drill holes into the cabinet in all four corners of the marked rectangle. Please remember to wear safety glasses and gloves.

4

Using metal scissors, cut along the traced lines. Use the drilled holes in the cabinet as a starting point. It’s okay if the lines look really messy and imperfect because the metal will be covered up by the pet door.

5

Install your pet door on both sides of the cabinet. Every pet door is different, so for this step you’ll need to follow the instructio­ns that come with the pet door you purchased.

6

Place your litter box inside and show your cats!
