A pet environment is disclosed that may have a platform having an outer edge and a platform aperture, the platform sloping downward from adjacent the outer edge to the platform aperture; a housing structure positioned above the platform aperture having at least one pathway in the housing structure, the pathway having at least one opening adapted to receive pet waste; and a gap between the platform and the housing structure extending along at least a portion of the platform aperture to receive pet waste from the platform. The pet environment may also have a container for collecting pet waste positioned below the aperture, and a support structure beneath the platform adapted to support the platform and the housing structure. The support structure may be flexible and may produce a vibratory effect in response to movement of an animal.
