Poopy Cat: Bought by Dutch pet product leader

Who enjoys cleaning their cat’s litter box? The answer: no one. That’s why, back in 2013, Rick Passenier and Thomas Vles sat in Meet Berlage conceptualizing the creation of the perfect disposable litter box — and Poopy Cat was born. Fast forward to today: Rick is still at Meet Berlage directing the business acceleration and innovation services at PACE Business Partners, and his poopy start-up has recently announced a major acquisition by Dutch pet product leader IJsvogel Groep — meaning their innovative litter boxes (and their Oprah-endorsed Landmark cat playhouses, including the Taj Mahal, Maya Temple and Kremlin) are now sold in 200 Pets Place and Boerenbond stores country-wide (maybe you’ve seen them?).
