Side Table or Cabinet

You could hack a side table or cabinet to hold a cat litter box inside. As long as you add ventilation, a way for your cat to access the box, and an easy way for you to clean the litter, you could easily find a place to put your side table or cabinet in a room. Nobody will know the cat litter box is there, except for you and your cat.

Put it in your entryway or your living room. Use a thrifted furniture piece and give it a makeover, or hack an inexpensive cabinet from IKEA.

Bench

Putting a cat litter box in a bench is just as convenient as putting it in a trunk, but the added bonus of a bench is that you can use it as seating for yourself as well. However, your cat might love the bench too much to ever get off it! Add a cushion on top in your favorite fabric to make your bench truly a part of your home, not just a good place to hide the cat litter box.

A window bench is always nice and you could add a couple of cute pillows on top of a bench to fancy it up a bit.

Fabric

Hide your cat litter box behind a pretty fabric and simply push it aside to clean the box. You could hang the fabric around a simple side table and put it in the kitchen to gain some more counter space, or give the fabric treatment to a buffet table or console table.
