We have 2 cats. One weighs 28 lb -- I'm wondering if he could use this litter box, if we get it, should we remove the inner wall to accommodate him?

Yes! I think removing the inner wall would be best for a 28 pound kitty. I think he could fit thru the doorways, but once in the back compartment with the litter box, the big kitty might appreciate a little more room.

That cat is big. I have a 20lb cat that has no issues. I would leave out the inner wall so you can put a large littler box in there.

Probably...however I would recommend that you caulk the seams and use a poly coat to keep it all waterproof. I am going to do that. Realize that this item is pressed wood and is NOT waterproof..

It will not be sturdy enough without support. The ramps will certainly need to be reinforced for a cat that heavy. They are only attached in the middle, so they turn if they step on the side of them. Also, putting it up against a wall can help. As our cats grow, we will add reinforcing nails and bracing. In my opinion, it is still well worth the money.

I don't think this system is designed for large cats. The cat that uses my litter box is about 5 lbs.I also have a cat that is 20lbs and can't imagine him in that litter box! btw he goes outside.

I have two cats - total weight 16 pounds. It is fortunate that the cat tree is against a wall as they tend to push off it when they get rambunctious. It would surely topple over if not for that. I have had to retighten the screws as they have come loose so keep that key handy. Otherwise plenty sturdy for holding weight (I just sat on it to be sure!). Just wish it had a broader base for when they jump off.

My wife and I agree with D. Shaffer. The cage isn't strong enough to travel with occupants, especially 4cats, if that is what you intended. Our cage holds 2 10lb cats and they take up both shelves when at rest.

My cat is about 18 pounds and very tall...I have had no accidents or overshooting the box since I got this one. I absolutely LOVE it....hope that answers the question....in the past the jumbo rectangular boxes resulted in occasional accidents.....VERY happy with this one

Strange cats you have........A kitten certainly could not do that, but a full grown cat could. It might be a reach - the sides are higher than normal litter boxes. The collar is detachable - maybe without the collar it would be an easier reach.

I just leave it loose. My older cat weighs 15lbs at the max. I am thinking about using some Velcro to put it together but for now... I haven't seen any issues. Hope this helps.

If your 2 cats already use one box there shouldn't be any problems. Joy McCoy makes a valid point about sealing the bottom and sides of this box. It's a great idea as once the box has been soiled with urine its all over. My box lid did stay open while cleaning and any cat closed cat box is dark but for some reason, I don't think my cat cared much about that. As far as getting a deep litter box, happy hunting. I'm sure there's something out there. I found one but there isn't a name on it. Only one will fit inside.

Hi! The litter box isn't as shape as it looks. Cats will kick litter out of almost any box, but my cats didn't kick much litter out of this one. It also depends how much litter you put in it. I just used a little less. Hope this answers your question.

My cat is 18 pounds. This wasn't quite big enough for my kitty. I would get a larger cat box for your cat. If he is able to climb and jump a bit (not arthritis) get a storage bin and use that. Works better than any commercial litter box. There is enough room and the high sides keep litter from scattering.

I'm going to go with no... not for long, anyway. My cat's maybe ten pounds and she fits fairly well, but I tried to put her and her sister in it once and they jammed their heads into the top of it and glared until I let them back out. For a quick vet trip, yeah you probably COULD, but I wouldn't on anything longer than that.

You might have to put some weight on the bottom of it if your cat is large because it's a little wobbly. All of the legs are the same size it's just the bottom support is too small. I have mine up against the wall for added support but it still rocks if my cat climbs up the side of it & not up the supports. I'm not sure if a 13 lb cat will fit on top. Mine is about 8 lbs & she takes up most of the space.

I don't know if a cat would use it as I don't have cats and don't know their behaviors or habits. My dogs and dogs that regularly visit my home are 84 lbs, 78 lbs and 22 lbs and all of them use the dog door that we installed in the wall. We've not had any problems of unwanted critters entering through the door. We've been very pleased with this product.

My cat is long and weighs a little over 15 lbs. It is very roomy inside the box we just took the divider out to fit an extra large catbox in it. I really believe it would fit with no problem.

I don't think so. Unless your cat likes small spaces... which some cats do.My cat is about 7lbs, and he barely fits. My other cat who is 5lbs seems to be more comfortable.

You would have to use the litter box measurent and then see if you have enough room. The front outer edge of the box will sit 20 inches from the wall corner and is 25 inches wide. I have this litter box in a pet crate and it fits just fine. This is a really sturdy and deep litter box and is a very good quality.
