After seeing a nifty cat box with a high price tag, I decided to make my own. It is a tote with a hole cut in the top of the lid. I had empty totes already so that didn't cost me anything. The litter does not get kicked out at all. Occasionally some is tracked, but it is way better than it being kicked out. My cats love it too.
Additionally, I did buy a cat pan set that has two pans and a sifter for like $18 at one of the big box stores. The solid pan fits perfectly in my tote. I still have to disinfect the big tote, but not as often as I do the inside pans. Overall, it is less cumbersome.

Because my cats are young, I do not cut the side out of the deep containers because it defeats the purpose of them being deep. Mine have absolutely no problem jumping in and out of the containers and the amount of kicked-around litter on the surrounding floor is greatly reduced. I have had many cats over 25 years and have tried many variations of container, scoop and waste containment.
