A new and improved cat litter scoop container comprises a holder formed as a generally hollow box with an open front. The holder has vertically positioned sidewalls and a vertically positioned rear wall. The holder also includes a roof and a floor. A front cover is formed in a long hollow shaped configuration with an upper region and a lower region. The lower region has a generally linear horizontal edge at its lowermost extent. The cover is contoured to be positioned within the front edges of the sidewalls of the holder in the operative orientation. A hinge is positioned between the holder and front cover and is affixed to both. The hinge is adapted to permit rotational opening and closing of the front cover.
