When I got this mat I didn't realize it was like indoor-outdoor and instantly wanted to return it. But the litter box enclosure I ordered came with a broken part so I just opened and used this mat to protect my floors. It looks a lot better once its on the floor under the cat box and actually does a great job at containing the litter my cat seems to carry with him all over the place. I may continue to use it if it goes with the enclosure I ordered.
