MAKING PET DIYs FROM IKEA ITEMS

[@tanairigonzalez1455]

That cat litter box is actually so genius though. Such a cute way to conceal a litter box and such cute room decor! Now I just need a cat.

[@brunalouise]

That's what I thought!! LOL I need a cat!

[@kassss1244]

Tanairi Pubill YESSS exactly what I thought! I have 2 cats and it’s so annoying having to hide a litter box lol no one likes seeing a cat poop 😂 so the litter box is always hidden away in a closet or my basement 😂😂

[@mayab4880]

I see u everywhere

[@user-zy7st5nt1o]

Tanairi Pubill Haha lol xx

[@Tobias-Andree]

Lol I have 2 cats

[@iamwindchakra]

In the litter box table, I'd add a plastic rubber mat under the litter box to protect the bottom of the box from pee and keep the box from sliding around. And a hook for the inside of the box for the scoop! Then a panel of mesh for the opening. I'd totally have one in my house!

[@klarag7059]

I’ve seen hacks like this before. Incorporating cat necessities into furniture, especially in open plan, small homes where you wouldn’t want to have the litter tray in the middle of your box-like apartment and you still want your cats to have fun places to climb, play, eat, hide, sleep as well as do their business in a neatly configured zone. It may have been an ikea hack or a secondhand/curb-side collection furniture up-cycle thing. It may have even been on a lifestyle genre TV show but other than that I have no leads on how to find them again.

[@tammytran5174]

[@kattetzlaff4051]

So true, and they should have also painted/sealed the cut on the triangle door to protect the wood from moisture.

[@britneybxoxo]

A carpet sample instead of the cardboard would have been so much better

[@ScottyFang]

And also whoever makes one should definitely find a way to make the cat scratching stuff *INTERCHANGEABLE* !!! When I saw her just glue a panel of cardboard to the back, I cried 😂

[@ladykatangel106]

I did this a long time ago & I used Velcro to interchange the cardboard & placed the cabinet I made on a carpet so the cardboard "spillage" could be easily cleaned up! I also placed a small diaper pail beside the litter box! I had home depot cut the square out for me! I made my cabinet out of MDF! I really wish I still had it. Sadly, it was destroyed in the fire I had a few years ago.

[@ladykatangel106]

OH! I also put my scented candles on top of the table to mask any smells! NO! This is NOT what caused the fire! My neighbor upstairs had a mean ex-boyfriend & well you can figure out the rest!

[@debbieboring3422]

@@ladykatangel106 LOL I didn't even think of the candle and the fire. But I like the Velcro idea and the carpet. Even if your floor was not carpeted you can get remnants for next to nothing. Or when they getting the new carpets in at Home Depot or Lowe's the samples from last year are next to nothing. Had a house fire that sucks. Event stuff that doesn't burn smells. But great idea about the Velcro.

[@MaRiAhxD100]

And you totally could've just attached it to the triangle you cut from the front

[@CompassBlue]

if anyone were to do this litterbox DIY I think the door hinge should be on the bottom rather than the top (pull down rather than pull up) so that it is a bit more ergonomic for a human to slide in a litter box from a bent over standing position rather than crouching under the door as the door will be in your face. hope that makes sense?

[@XusernamegoeshereX]

Yes! Or they could have gotten a spring loaded hinge that would stay open by itself

[@nunpho]

Jenny Ahna I was just coming here to say that, you'd need to crawl on the floor to get at the litter tray

[@brandyherring7717]

100% agree

[@RandySoWavvy]

Herdzale yup and probably knock the litter box out of your hands

[@nicoleb1563]

i’ll DEFINITELY be doing the cat litter box! having 3 cats isnt easy!

[@emiliagrace8121]

Having a lot of cats isn’t easy at all!! I have 5!!

[@Jessa8891]

There are already made ones if you google them! Some for even cheaper then what they made it for!

[@nicoleb1563]

Jessica Carlock what should i google?

[@rebeccacompton5307]

I have 4 and it’s so difficult to keep up with them and their messes!

[@edencole7349]

i have five aswell i can relate to ur struggle , i have 2 dogs aswell x)

[@asmrqueens5608]

You should try to recreate the brown wide chair or at least make something that is inspired from it! And those pink bowls are gorgeous!!!!

[@frogonmytoe2946]

Kelsey “and it comes pre built. That’s worth money!”
Also Kelsey - proceeds to disassemble
😂

[@solar979]

Cats need to remove outer nail sheet. They need something deep enough to insert their whole claw length inside and thick and sturdy enough to keep their old layer when they pull it out. They also do that to stretch their bodies. Thick rope or old carpet are the best for that purpose.

[@Calithrade]

You could totally use a little extra of that epoxy putty to make the join into a little bone shape! Would be much cuter ^.^

[@lilymccann-klausz4938]

Omg yass!

[@sarablack6676]

I like the cat litter box, but I would have made the triangle out of rough rope or recycled carpeting

[@babitferreira]

"-what's your name?
...
...
-Kelsey"
hahahaha why tha was so funny?

[@ievavaicekauskaite4203]

you should have gotten special hinges for that cabinet. My kitchen has doors that open that way, but you need special hinges so it would stay up while you are taking something out.

[@karicherrycola]

Ieva Vaicekauskaitė if you made it the way they did, you could just remove the litter box from the cabinet, clean it, and then put it back in its place. Though I do see your point - hinges that stay in place would be more convenient.

[@DanSolSko]

I think they're called piston hinges

[@RandySoWavvy]

karicherrycola most of the time you need 2 hands if you’re holding a litter box especially if you’re trying to take out a dirty litter box the last thing you wanna be messing with is a door and risk dropping dirty litter on your floor 😷

[@celestiallyme777]

I would love if you guys could make a DIY Cat tower for "fat cats" specifically. 2 of my 3 cats are larger breed cats(they weigh 15 and 18 lbs) so unfortunately the cat towers I have purchased in the past are quickly broken or made incredibly unstable because of the 2 larger cats jumping in and out. I usually spend about $130 after shipping on premade cat towers. I would love if you could make a really nice castle feeling cat tower for around the same price that could hold up to larger cats.
Thanks Sorry Girls!

[@mglouise97]

I would recommend getting a custom cat tree. The guy in my area charges anywhere from $200-$300 depending on the size but it's worth the investment. The trees are beautiful, stable, and safe!

[@EricaExperience]

Armarkat is a great brand for cat towers with fat cats. My heaviest was 16 lbs (thyroid problem) and it had more them enough space for her to lay and stretch

[@laurapardo1278]

SO CUTEEE!
You guys should team up with the humane society and try and get some furry friends adopted!

[@kayceetetreault1435]

These are my favorite videosssss. DIY something for car accessories would be cool! And different !

[@teapotlizard]

6:03 DANNY HAS GROWN SO MUCH I'M REALLY EMOTIONAL LOOK AT HIM

[@lisa-mariesavard4676]

Do you girls know about ReStore by Habitat for Humanity? They receive a bunch of donation from people renovating their house and even from construction businesses. They often have old painted windows, vintage door knobs, etc. At least that's what the one in Montreal has, but I assume the donations must be similar in Toronto! You could definitely find interesting and unique finds there! ;)

[@clr7850]

This is a great idea and wonderful for older cats who struggled bending to eat and drink :)

[@amylamb1527]

Idea! You could also take the triangle you removed from the end of the cat box, wrap it in rope and affix to the opposite side for a more permanent cat scratcher! Also v. cute. Loved these DIYs!

[@mahamali3143]

I love how the sorry girls have a finishing to their diy's and are durable not tacky with hot glue all over.

[@BanAnna85]

That litter box should have a way to keep the door open or should just open from the side instead of the top. And it looked better before the ripped cardboard was glued to the side of it. If they wanted to cut the triangle out without taking the whole thing apart they could've drilled a hole and then used a saw to cut from the hole. It depends on the tools they had though.

[@TheDeerhunter316]

Thank you for pointing this out because I was thinking the same thing

[@charlottewhidden996]

My bed super needs some love. Do you think you can Diy a bed frame for cheap?

[@carmencosmo]

THIS WOULD BE AMAZING !!!!

[@shouq9046]

Need this

[@howaboutno2666]

Charlotte Whidden they've done something like that! Here it is! ua-cam.com/video/xlUpPYSzuLI/v-deo.html

[@chairisma6055]

or a DIY headboard!

[@suecox2308]

OMG--everything is perfect! The little feeding bowls are so cute and the litter cabinet is genius!

[@ber9313]

i have a hack for two litter box covers. Get the Francesca writing desk from Wayfair. Find a fabric print that matches your decor. Make a desk skirt using velcro around the table. Leave an entry slit on each side for the cats to get in and out. When you need to clean just move the desk and sweep and clean your boxes and deodorize the table bottom which is a plastic that really looks like wood. It lets the cats in and out and the fabric can be washed or easily replaced. I put the wire criss cross facing the room so its easy to slide out. Can't use it as a desk this way but you can use it as a decorative console table.

[@Meekavintage]

Cat cabinet is FREAKIN GENIUS !

[@AztecWarrior69]

I am VERY VERY VERY IMPRESSED with that litter box. I did not see that coming. Awesome!

[@Vidchemy]

Great ideas! Scratcher suggestion: Amazon and pet stores sell scratcher inserts, which would last much longer than a single layer of cardboard. For corrugated, cutting it into 2 or 3 cm strips, then rolling them into a circle or triangle shape (quilling for cats) prior to gluing it to the box is another longer-lasting option.

[@zabellamulamanca]

both upsicles are just SO good! the cat littler box can also be a doggie house, my dog loves being in small spaces and think she would go crazy over this!

[@vannilamilkshake5082]

the kitten is so cute!!

[@dgoz97]

That kitty was adorable!!!

[@reneepappas9197]

When you use paint that has to be pet safe paint with no toxins and stuff that can hurt the pets and that putty stuff you use has to be the same thing in order to actually be used with pets

[@alejandrocisneros5952]

"A DOLLA??"

[@erianneaifa8301]

*A WATA FO A DOLLA?!?!*

[@IllGato]

I got an as is IKEA square cabinet years ago that had a square door with glass in it. Busted out the glass, filled the seam with hot glue to make sure there were no tony shards and popped a litter box in that guy. It looked so nice! We recently moved and the kitties went outside, since they kept trying to escape the apartment and wanted to be free lol. Took out the litter box, replaced it with a bed and put it on our back deck and the cats still love it! Hands down best thing I've ever bought from IKEA, and it was only like 20 bucks in the as is section.

[@anme0827]

These were amazing!!!!
Tip for the cat litter cabinet, it needs ventilation up top on the back where u can add charcoalfilters for the smell. They last a long time and makes the inside not smell.
I would add a latch for the front door so you could empty the litter box easily without holding the door up.

[@Littlemissmarie298]

That cat box cabinet was sooo cute! 💛🐱

[@Glitterforest]

The litter box cabinet turned out sooo good!! I love the handle!

[@cherylw7227]

THAT KITTY THINGY IS AMAZING! Claps all around!

[@Mengjoanne]

Could you do a thrift store furniture hack? Also like to see a t shirt upcycle.

[@theduck3795]

I've looked at those litter box covers that are mass produced and they're always like, $100+!! This is such a great diy to save me some money.

[@Letsgogiirlss]

Love love love the litter box!! Especially since it could store the scoop and more in it!!

[@sachk6065]

OH MA GAWD THE KITTY!

[@ninahorn]

I'm probably getting my dog on Tuesday so this is perfect timing!!!

[@avaanimates6025]

Nina H What breed?!

[@ssulc5933]

the decision to get a dog was one of the most important decisions of my life. My dog is my baby, I love her so much. Make sure to train your dog early, it’s easier then when they are older.

[@shiczy9642]

Is it a rescue dog?
Congrats btw

[@ninahorn]

101crafty CornxX yea i got her from the animal shelter!

[@ninahorn]

AvaAnimates not sure because we rescued her but she is a bit like a smooth fox terrier!

[@mikkiluo5793]

Gold or rose gold looks AMAZING with pastel pink

[@vtheteenagewitch]

Omggg the box was genius Kelsey

[@andresifuentes5815]

Bed frames pleaseeeee!!! And that cabinet is genius ✨

[@secretaltruism4174]

Both are great, but that kitty one is inspired. It's an amazing way of having everything you need for your cats while still making your apartment looking on point.

[@Spasmofantenreturns]

Nice catinet

[@HelloSally13]

Loved the cat litter box idea. They are hundreds of dollars to buy and now I can diy my own just the way I want it ! Thanks!

[@debbieboring3422]

I will have to check out the plant stands. This is a very good idea for older pets. Sometimes it is hard for there necks. And some animals don't feel safe with there heads down. A real reason to go to IKEA yay!!!!

[@KatelynMariee]

OK but that cat litter box is amazing!!!

[@FunkyRainbowbubbles]

I have looked for diy like that for hours ! 😊 Thanks for sharing !

[@nataliamaliga]

If you want to make a fancier version of a cat scratcher than just using cardboard, you can hot glue a thick twine-like rope so that the cats have more material to sink their claws into! plus itll give it a jute-rug kind of vibe

[@flippa00md]

these are so cute??? i can imagine the litter box house thing would be really useful if you have a small apartment/house where the litter box might not fit in the bathroom, so you want it to be cute and match the style of the rest of your space!

[@isabellamedina6223]

A chic vanity table & organization!

[@naelesa8392]

Hi,i'm brazilian!i Love pets !😍😍

[@LittleMissStamper]

Love the effort, lol, but as a cat owner I can tell you there is no way in hell that cat would fit in that litter box 😂

[@RedHead94100]

Little Miss Stamper it's pretty obviously just a storage box they used for presentation lol they're not going to buy a litter box just for some reveal shots...

[@Meanne77]

Same thought. Also, as a owner of 2 cats I highly doubt any cat would go scratch near their litter. Or, like, do anything near their litter. Cats usually like to keep spaces separated.
(I also think the water bowl is to close to the food bowl. Pets eat messily, the food will 100% go fly in the water bowl when they're so close to each other. The heigh is fine for such a dog but probably too height for small dogs or cats. Just keep that in mind if you want to do this DIY, people!)
I like watching DIY for pets but 90% of the time I'm like: yeah, that's a lot of work for something that is pretty in the human eyes but worthless in the pet's eyes ^^; Especially cats maybe? They'll do whatever they please, don't bother trying to DIY them a bed, they'll keep sleeping wherever they prefer, not where if would be more convenient to you ^^; *says the girls watching her cat sleeping on the drying clean bed sheets* Thanks for the hairs, cat >.

[@nancypaopal3]

Meanne77 my dogs bowl are that close to each other and it works fine no mess. I thinm it depends on the dogs

[@eeeeeoww]

i was about to say that lmaooo

[@LittleMissStamper]

Uhhh...since there was a CAT I'm assuming they have a litter box...but either way the point (which I thought was pretty obvious) that I was trying to make is that a litter box...even a small one, would not FIT in there and be usable by a cat....which is WHY they didn't use one in the shot.

[@compassion2126]

The litter box furniture was great! Yes a wedding theme one!

[@TaylorStrutton]

that cat litterbox is great, but the upward opening door is slightly impractical for cleaning, would be better if it opened the other way with a latch

[@rachelsanchis]

I wasnt sure about the pet bowl thing but it actually ended up looking amazing. Also, a set of ceramic dog bowls for that price, amazing!

[@Ariannaxx97]

Yes! Thank you for the cat DIYs!

[@ivyhazelco]

More organiser/storage ideas for a spring clean☺️☺️

[@kestiameshad]

I saw the cat litter box all over pinterest and want to build one. Yours is the only tutorial I've ever come across. Great job! Personally I would make it larger and use a litter catcher mat (because trust me, those devils get EVERYWHERE!) right outside the litter box (but inside the cabinet). Don't think it's a great idea to put the cardboard scratcher outside the litter cabinet though because eventually it's gonna be shredded and then you're just left with an ugly mark at the side. We made one for our cat - just a wooden board, elevate it slightly on one side by attaching wooden feet, and wrapping thick jute twine around the board and keeping it in place by stapling or hot gluing it. She loves using it. You'll find it on pinterest too.

[@alishavial1684]

Can you do multipurpose furniture / 2 in 1 furniture ikea as is

[@steffikrose]

Oh, I really love that cat litter box because you can use it in multiple ways and the cat has some privacy as well! I actually really like furniture that serves more that one purpose, so maybe make a multi-purpose challenge? Like a trunk/bench or something (you are a lot more creative than I am so that's all I can come up with on the spot) :) And I also love organising stuff, I would like to see your ideas on how to tidy up a kitchen on a budget. Thank you for the inspiration! Love from Austria :)

[@marinaromanova3475]

I just got a kitten yesterday, this couldn’t be be more perfect

[@caia-moon]

Not even a cat person like it’s very unlikely I’ll ever have a pet cat but OMG that cat one was GENIUS!! I love the idea of hiding their litter tray in a cute cabinet - they’re usually such an eye sore. Great job guys!! ♥️

[@theOGdebb]

Loved both of them!!!

[@bigscruppy]

These are both really cute

[@leylarustamova]

5:30 LITTLE TIP: when the hot glue is still warm and bendable, flip the holders right side up and put a board or a large but-not-too-h eavy book on them, so the warm glue on the bottom dries evenly in height, so that the bowls stand perfectly at a 90 degree angle

[@Cookiemonstaroxs]

If you left the hooks on the pet food bowl, you could move it around easier. Just have it on sides. Save energy of cutting it off.
