Abstract

A litter disposal system comprises a receptacle, including a bag and a tray, and a support structure for supporting the bag in a suspended position. The bag is formed with opposed flap portions adapted to be engaged to securing pegs depending from a top frame of the support structure, and the bottom frame of the support structure includes members for supporting and retaining the tray. After use by the house pet, the receptacle may be conveniently tied, removed from the support structure and discarded, and replaced by a replacement receptacle conveniently contained in kit form.
