Help me find a litter box enclosure that will fit the XL Breeze Litter System please

I'm adopting a 3 month old mainecoon kitten in September and bought her an XL Breeze Litter System so that she doesn't have to change to a new litter box as she grows. I was hoping to enclose it since my apartment is not that spacious and it takes up a lot of visible space. All of the litter box enclosures I could find on Amazon/ Wayfair so far have been too small, about an inch short in width, and many short in length.
ChatGPT says the litter box is 19.15 × 29.25 x 15.25 inches.

Ideally I'm hoping for something wooden, off the ground for a Roomba to fit under if possible.

Please let me know what you were able to fine / your workarounds! Thank you!

What clothing and furniture hair removers have you found to work best for our long haired cuties?

My future nug for tax (and an example of the amount of shedding happening 😅)

Help name this little lady - love the orange on the back of her head so related to that would be cute!

Will finally be getting my Mainecoon kitten in September 🙌🏻 been playing around w a few but still struggling to come up w a name for her that I love. Name atm is Ginger. She has the cutest orange splotch at the back of her heard so it’d be cute to relate it to that somehow.

I want a name that can derive into cute nicknames, nothing super fancy like the 4 part names Mainecoons sometimes have. It could be more formal for government name, but doesn’t have to be.

Her sister (from the family I’m adopting her from, is Cleopatra, nicknamed Klyopa (in Russian) which I love but don’t want to outright copy as I think it maybe suites her sister more.

Let me know your ideas!!

Help me name this little MaineCoon lady :)

Still trying to come up w a name for this lovely MaineCoon kitten who I’ll finally be getting in a month once she’s old enough!
Her pre-adoption name is Ginger but it’s not really speaking to me.

I love a name that had silly nicknames (ideally in Russian)
For example her sister’s name I lovee but can’t copy of course, it is Cleopatra with the nickname Clyopa in Russian.

Because she’s gonna get big something regal or mythological could also make sense?

Open to all suggestions but that’s what I tend to enjoy!!

(3rd pic is w her mom, 2nd is to show off the bit of orange on the back of her head, and the last pic is w both mom and dad)

Getting this little lady in a month once she’s 14 weeks - please suggest some names! Not as visible in the pics but she also has an orange splotch on the back of her head!

I will be adopting a little MaineCoon kitten in about a month from some family friends whose cats just had a litter this May (parent cats are from Ukraine and Russia). Obviously I want to give her the world but first I’m thinking about a name. Her current name is Ginger but I’m not in love with it. She is an intelligent, energetic, playful, and curious kitten. Pictured with her mama (1.5yrs old) for scale.

I like Russian names (proper or silly but in Russian - since I speak it)
or
Random silly names in English
or
Proper formal names in English

But open to anything that feels like it fits.
And in general names that can have cute nicknames derived from them :)

Floor to Ceiling Cat Tree Recs for Maine Coon

Hello! I have committed to adopting a little Maine coon kitten from some family friends whose cat just had a litter and have been getting my apartment prepped for her arrival since obviously I want to give her the world ✨. She is an energetic, playful, and curious kitten, climbing all over their current cat tree and bouncing up and down the stairs.

I know they grow to be quite large so I'm buying my bigger items like a cat tree with the intention of it being able to support her as an adult down the line.

I have 9'11" ceilings and lots of windows so I've been doing research into floor-to ceiling cat trees and found a few contenders but the few negative comments in the plethora of good ones have made me hesitant since they talk about safety and the item breaking while they were away.

Do any of you have one, what're your thoughts? Any brands or models you could rec that would fit my high ceilings? Are the thick board cat tree posts really secure enough?

I’ve included links to and photos of a few of the ones I was considering as well as photos of the kitty herself!

I have many beloved plants (growing for 5+ years) but am about to get a kitten and want to keep her safe of course - which can I keep and what's the degree of danger for them?

I am getting a kitten in a month but have an apartment full of plants that I love, many of which I have been cultivating for 5+ years. Which of these are a must to get rid of, which could I get away with just displaying a bit further, which would just cause irritation and which are totally safe to leave as they are? Any advice is appreciated :) the current owners claim the kitten has had no interest in any of their plants so far but I want to play it safe to keep her from anything that might cause actual harm, not including maybe some mild discomfort that will stop her from biting again the plants that aren’t risky enough to keep around if she’s feeling curious. Thanks!

I have:

  1. Red Chinese Evergreen (Aglaonema)
  2. Burro's Tail (Sedum morganianum)
  3. Chinese Money Plant (Pilea peperomioides)
  4. Watermelon Peperomia (Peperomia argyreia)
  5. Satin Pothos (Scindapsus pictus)
  6. Golden Pothos (Epipremnum aureum)
  7. Snake Plant (Dracaena trifasciata)
  8. The Rubber Fig (Ficus elastica)
  9. Common Asparagus Fern (Asparagus setaceus
  10. Aloe Vera

(Disregard the tulips, those are temporary and I’ve read that they are bad for cats - but correct me if that’s untrue)

Help brainstorm names for this kitten found at a gas station being fed from a Mexican food cart

Current name is Galen - "father of medicine" (from before we found out she was a girl). So debating keeping it or trying something new.

She’s a cackler. A hunter. She is a spunky and sweet. She is more of a royal regal energy. She would shop at Chanel and then go partying after.

Love science names and weird names like Glen the cat, Ion the cat, Teo the cat, Sméagol.
