This is because certain actions taken by owners can deter the cat from using the litter box, such as using a strong-smelling, aggressive cleaning agent.
This is definitely not something a feline would appreciate.

So, what should you use to clean the litter box effectively, eliminate odors, and not discourage your cat?
Hot water
Surprisingly, hot water is the most accessible solution for cleaning the litter box and eliminating unpleasant odors.
Start by removing the litter and pouring hot water into the box, letting it sit for a few minutes. Then scrub the walls and bottom of the box with a brush. Rinse with hot water again for a few minutes.
Baking soda
Add baking soda while soaking the litter box, or simply sprinkle it on a brush to scrub the walls and bottom of the box. Baking soda has a deodorizing effect and can help eliminate odors.
Mild soap
Use a solution of mild soap, such as grated bar soap or liquid soap, to clean the litter box. Avoid soaps with strong fragrances. Apply the soap solution, scrub the box, and rinse thoroughly.
Hydrogen peroxide
If you want to disinfect the litter box, treat it with a small amount of hydrogen peroxide. You can use a spray bottle to apply it and leave it to act for a few minutes. Then rinse the litter box with running water.
Remember to thoroughly dry the litter box before adding fresh litter to ensure cleanliness and prevent odors. Regular cleaning and maintenance are essential to keep the litter box appealing to your cat and maintain a fresh environment.
