72 Inch Tall Wooden Cat House with Weatherproof Asphalt Roof

I\'m so glad I bought this toy! I read quite a few comments and decided on this one. This one is sturdy, well made, the wire mesh is very strong, the label is well attached and easy to assemble. Took about two hours to assemble. I love those doors; They slide very well and the hinges are strong. I put a cat in there for now. But I\'m sure as some cats get used to it, they\'ll like it. This is one worth buying.

large and functional. Big doors to move things in or out and enable the cleaning. other...instructions were okay if you assembled items before. If you have not, lay part out and look for the screw holes. it will save you time later. for factory inst...recommend providing 2 12" zip ties and directing them to be used while assembling to keep doors shut. This will prevent possible damage to door hinges. Also matching colored dots on inner frame and shelf brackets to ensure shelves are placed in the recommended location.

Kiki waits by door every morning so she can go to her new setting. The material is what you would expect but is easy to put together. For the price it\'s fits our needs

To be honest, I\'m a dog lover. But when this kitten started hanging around my house, I started feeding her and now she is my baby. Being my baby, I was worried for her safety. So I purchased this right away to keep her safe. She is an outdoor cat. That is where she wants to be, even if I like her inside. She now comes in the house at night. But she is too wild inside, I take her to sleep in the cage. I know she is safe there. I will be honest that I worry about the quality. I left food in her cage one morning so she would have food for 2 days when I returned the next evening. I saw a claw mark in the cage. I have a feeling raccoons may have smelled the food and tried to claw it and came in thru the door and ate all the food. My cat was fine, but I fed her well when I got back and I worry that if a raccoon can make that claw mark, what can other animals do to it. She seldom sleeps in it so I think it works well for what I need it. The top box, I\'ve found, is too small for her. It was large enough when she was a kitten, but not enough now that she is bigger. Since she cannot sleep in the top box, I had to purchase a little waterproof house at the bottom. Of course it takes up the whole bottom, but it gives her a dry place to sleep in the rain. When we have big storms, she just needs more coverage. I have also covered parts of it with a tarp. I run the tarp over the top and down the sides. I try to let the air flow from front to back. Depends on how bad the rain is. But I normally try to bring her inside when it storms. I hate to have her be scared outside in one of our crazy storms. But sometimes, she is just too wild for the house. Modifications: I have added my own longer screws to screw in some of the harder to reach parts. The screws and latches that it came with are just too small and flimsy. I\'ve gone to the hardware store multiple times for screws and a new larger latch to lock the doors. I\'ve also added further waterproof sealing over the entire wood parts. I\'ve also cut a hole in the side so I can use a heating pad inside the waterproof house on the bottom for winter months when she slept outside a lot. She sleeps in the house more now. Would I purchase this again? absolutely. I\'d maybe even get something bigger. Still considering adding to it. I\'d love for her to have more room when she is stuck in there. All-in-all, I love this cage. It offered the protection my cat needed as a kitten and still needs now. It has done a good job sheltering her from the elements and has been large enough to house the waterproof housing I bought. Though the hardware is cheap, you can upgrade that and I would buy this again.

Wood is kinda flimsy but it works for my cats. Overall it\'s sturdy once put together.
