Abstract
A sanitary pet box structure having a container with a space therein for holding feces receiving material, and a pet support section adapted to seat on the container and having an elongated opening disposed over the space for the material. Along each side of the opening is a relatively flat area for supporting the respective front and rear paws of the pet, with said opening extending longitudinally with respect to the pet'"'"'s body. The unit preferably has inwardly and downwardly sloping sides so that the pet is forced to use the areas along each side of the elongated opening for the support of its paws and body. The support unit normally is used in conjunction with a container; however, it may be, in some instances, used in connection with a conventional toilet or commode.
