Are you ready to make lawn care part of your personality? Our lawns are designed to be used and renewed frequently; we recommend a new lawn every two weeks.

In the meantime, to keep your lawn looking fresh, here’s a few tips to get you started:

• Place in a sunny spot (but not scorching). A little light keeps it lush.

• Weather happens; we get it we’re from Wellington! But to help keep your box sweet a little shelter goes a long way, behind a wall or under a gable is perfect.

• Lightly water every few days. Think spa mist, not swimming pool.

• Solids go in the bin. For liquids, rinse with a splash of water.

• Every now and then, lift the tray and give it a bit of air. If it’s looking a bit tired, pop it outside for some fresh air and light recovery time

• Got a whiff you don’t love? A quick rinse with water and a splash of pet-safe vinegar underneath can help neutralize any smells. Just don’t spray the lawn itself!

Let’s make training a walk in the park:

• Start early and often, take them to their patch often but especially after eating, drinking, sleeping, or playing
• Consistency is key, they’re still learning. Stay positive, even if they miss the mark occasionally
• Watch for signals, sniffing, circling, whining? Time to head to the grass
• We all love a treat. Praise and treat them right after they go
  

Who says you can’t teach an old dog new tricks?!

• Introduce it like a new bathroom, not a toy
• Encourage them to mark it, a used pee pad, paper towel with their scent, or even a little soil from their usual spot can help.
• Stick to a schedule, bring them to the lawn during their normal bathroom times to help them make the connection.
• Limit other options, if you can. If indoors, block off access to other usual potty spots to reinforce the Little Lawn as the place to go.
• Praise still works! Yes, even older dogs love a little “good dog!” and a treat. Reinforce every successful visit.

Consistency is key for both puppies and adult dogs, and remember you're not just growing grass, you're growing great habits.

Fresh, fun, and feline-approved.

• A natural hangout. Place your Little Lawn somewhere your cat already loves to lounge  windowsills, balconies, or near their favorite napping spot.
• Scratch, don’t stress. Cats may paw or roll on the grass before they lounge or nibble that’s normal! It’s enrichment, not mischief.
• Safe snacking. Some cats enjoy chewing on fresh grass. It’s safe and can even help with digestion (and those pesky hairballs)
• Keep it fresh. Spritz lightly with water to keep the lawn lush. Cats are picky — they won’t touch wilted grass.
• Mix & match. If you’re using it as a litter box alternative, introduce it slowly by placing the Little Lawn next to their current litter area. Sprinkle a small amount of used litter on top to transfer the scent.
• Rotate for fun. Swap lawns regularly, fresh grass keeps curious cats coming back for more.
