I think the only problem would be changing them out completely as they probably held several hundred pounds of litter each. I need to do something about my situation though. Not nearly enough litterboxes for all my cats, and if I had the recommended 1 litterbox per cat + 1 I'd have to have a whole room with nothing but litterboxes in it.
