What is claimed is: 1. A litter box containment system comprising a frame having a plurality of sides, said frame having a liner positioned within the interior of said frame, an open top, means for stabilizing said frame so as to only rest on an upper rim of a litter box, and fastening means for fastening said liner to said frame; wherein said stabilizing means includes at least one flange or rim extending downwardly from the bottom of the frame along a portion of each of said plural sides, each of said flange or rim extending below the upper rim of the litter box; wherein the sides of the frame form an open structure and said liner is attached to said frame thereby forming at least one wall. 2. The litter box containment system of claim 1, wherein said frame is open on one side, and said liner is attached to said frame on the other sides, thereby forming walls. 3. The litter box containment system of claim 2, wherein said frame is adapted so that an opening allowing an animal to pass through is relocatable to at least two of the sides. 4. The litter box containment system of claim 1, wherein said liner is attached to said frame on all sides, thereby forming walls, wherein an opening is formed in at least, one of said walls, thereby allowing an animal to pass through. 5. The litter box containment system of claim 4, wherein said frame is adapted so that the opening allowing the animal to pass through is relocatable to at least two of the sides. 6. The litter box containment system of claim 1, wherein said liner is attached to said frame, said liner completely covering the interior of said litter box, whereby the liner has a closed bottom. 7. The litter box containment system of claim 1, wherein said stabilizing means includes one or more stabilizing extensions that secure the containment system to or around the litter box. 8. The litter box containment system of claim 1, further including means for changing the size of each of said sides of said frame. 9. The litter box containment system of claim 8, wherein said changing means includes a means for fixing or securing said sides at a particular size. 10. A litter box containment system comprising a frame having a plurality of sides, said frame having a liner positioned within the interior of said frame, an open top, means for releasably securing said frame to or around a litter box, and fastening means for fastening said liner to said frame, wherein said liner is attached to said frame, said liner extending to a position below said rim of said litter box, and having an open bottom. 11. A litter box containment system comprising a plurality of walls, said walls arranged in a serial manner and means for stabilizing said walls so as to rest on an upper rim of a litter box, at least one of said walls having an opening, thereby allowing an animal to pass through, wherein said stabilizing means includes at least one flange or rim extending downwardly from the bottom along a portion of each of said walls, each of said flange or rim extending below the upper rim of the litter box. 12. The litter box containment system of claim 11, wherein each said wall is connected to adjacent walls by a hinge. 13. The litter box containment system of claim 12, wherein at least one said hinge includes a removable pin, whereby the plurality of walls can be disassembled. 14. The litter box containment system of claim 11, wherein each said wall is connected to adjacent walls by a vertically oriented weakened area, whereby the plurality of walls are foldable at each said weakened area, thereby making the plurality of walls suitable for folding. 15. The litter box containment system of claim 11, further including means for changing the size of each of said sides of said frame. 16. The litter box containment system of claim 15, wherein said changing means includes a means for fixing or securing said sides at a particular size. 17. The litter box containment system of claim 11, wherein said stabilizing means includes one or more stabilizing downward extensions that secure to the litter box or sides of the litter box. 18. The litter box containment system of claim 11, wherein a liner is positioned within the interior of said walls, and fastening means for fastening said liner to said walls is provided.
