I'm new here!
Hi, I'm Amy Leiker.
I never set out to invent anything. I just wanted to make life hurt a little less for the people I love.
My son was diagnosed with arthritis at only 9 years old, and his dad lives with multiple chronic illnesses, autoimmune disease, and daily pain. I’ve watched the two of them navigate the kinds of challenges most people never think twice about — bending, reaching, lifting, even getting through routines that shouldn’t require courage. When you live around chronic pain, you learn quickly that it’s not the big tasks that break you down. It’s the small ones.
The moment that changed everything for me came from my aunt’s neighbor, a wheelchair user, who told her he could no longer care for his cat because he couldn’t reach the floor-level litter box. He loved that cat. But the setup was inaccessible, and he didn’t want to keep asking for help. His story stayed with me — because I knew too many people who lived in that same quiet struggle.
That’s when I created LoftyLoo Elevated Litter Box. Not as a company, not as a business plan — but as an accessibility solution no one else was building. For me, LoftyLoo isn’t a product. It’s a mission to protect dignity and independence, to support people living with chronic pain or mobility limitations, and to make sure no one has to choose between their safety and the pet who makes their world feel whole.
I believe accessibility starts at home, in the overlooked details that shape our everyday lives. And I’m committed to making those details kinder, safer, and more possible for the people who need it most.
So happy I found this group! Elevate your day! LoftyLoo Love.
