Abstract
Disposable litter boxes of the type for containing an absorbent material which are suitable for use as cat litter boxes or petroleum and other liquid waste containers wherein the boxes are foldable to create tray-like receptacles which include a bottom wall and upwardly extending ends and side walls which are continuously joined with the bottom wall so that no openings are created therebetween. The receptacles contain an absorbent material which when used may be selectively enclosed for disposal within a closed box created by folding the opposing end walls of the tray into overlapping configuration. The boxes may be sold or shipped in either a flat or folded configuration, and when folded may be sold with an absorbent material already packaged therein.
