We had a framed enclosure (box) built that was big enough for a very large litter box. The enclosure has a hinged top and front. The back side of the enclosure is totally open.

We put the enclosure in the garage with the open side against the wall with the laundry room. We then cut a hole in the wall for a cat door so that the cats can enter the litter box enclosure from the laundry room without them being able to get out into the garage. The weight of the enclosure, litter box and extra litter I keep in the box are enough to prevent the cats from being able to move the enclosure. We have a mat we purchased from one of the pet stores that the cats have to step on when they exit the litter enclosure through the cat door so that they don't track litter into the house proper.

So far it has worked well for us.
