A collapsible animal litter pan has polymeric surfaces that are immune to
urine soaking. A plurality of hinges collapse and expand the litter pan.
The litter pan has sidewalls that locate, receive and stabilize a urine
absorption sheet. The urine absorption sheet has a liquid impervious
bottom layer, a urine absorption layer composed of cotton, cellulose
fluff pulp, commuted pulp, soft wood fine chips, or hydrophilic paper and
combinations thereof, together with superabsorbent polymers and a top,
liquid permeable, layer. The top and bottom layers are bonded to
constrain the urine absorbent layer. An adhesive coating is applied to
the bottom layer of the urine absorption sheet for temporarily adhering
the sheet to the foldable litter pan for enhanced stability of the urine
absorption sheet. Animal urine is substantially completely absorbed by
the urine absorbent sheet, and the soiled sheet replaced with a fresh
sheet without soiling the litter pan.
