Best thing to do is to get a long, shallow plastic storage container (obviously just the box and not the lid) like the ones you get to store things under the bed. Seems to work the best. Cats like it because it is long. ( https://www.walmart.com/ip/Homz-60-Quart-Twin-King-Under-Bed-Clear-Latching-Storage-set-of-2/40977741 ) Other option is to take a regular large storage container and cut a hole in it on the side so he can go in/out. You can make it any size you want. Here is an example: ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0JaVrsy-RgY ) Remember, the more shallow it is for him to get in effectively, the higher chance litter will be scattered everywhere..... Hope this helps. Best wishes.

If the box is not covered I would recommend doing so but otherwise try a wood pellet based litter which can be quite similar in texture; you may need to try a few brands until you find one that is acceptable to Storm!

Hi there. Most cats prefer an unscented clumping litter with a fine, sand-like texture - so I would recommend offering something like this. The litter box should be large with low sides, so it's easy for her to get in. If you try this and she still has no interest in using the litter box, then you may need to observe what type of surface she prefers to potty on and use something similar to this in her litter box.

Hartz, in my opinion , is not a great brand but it would not hurt trying these out. The best odor prevention, however, is using clumping litter and removing the soiled clumps and the bowel movements every day. Your cat might not like the smell of any litter deodorizer and then might avoid using the litter box. Start with a tiny amount to get the cat used to it.

Hi there. Any kind of container (such as a shallow cardboard box, plastic storage container, etc.) with litter in it will do. If you aren't able to purchase cat litter, you could try using potting soil, sand, or fill dirt.
