i'm going to say 'no'. the shelf requires the window be lowered into the closed position in order to clamp onto the shelf, and as i understand louvered windows, that wouldn't be possible.(i've noticed that the other respondent claims a closed window isn't necessary, but they must be a wizard, because i couldn't get it to stay firmly without doing so.)

If your cats are large, I wouldn't recommend this one, more for smaller cats. I have some of both so it worked out for me. The height should be fine for your window.

DIP THE SUCTION CUPS IN BOILING WATER FOR A FEW SECONDS TO SOFTEN THEM. DRY THEM AND IMMEDIATELY PUT THEM BACK IN THE WINDOW. I did this a week ago, when the suction cups wouldn't even stay on the window by itself! now it has stayed over a week! my cat sleeps in it every night, AND it is the middle of winter in MN. It works!

No you cant. I will not recommend this product to any one. If it is not properly stick to the glass then it will peel off when you roll down the window. Also it is very difficult to handle. when you leave it on the window for long, it will come off when get over heated by the sun. And it gets stick to itself which makes it very difficult to separate. Dont go for this.

I would use a T-connect that Kitty Walk makes that would fit flush against the window opening. Bear in mind the Kitty Walk has to sit on a firm surface, the bottom is also netting. Our cats love being outside in their Kitty Walk!

A cat (or an umbrella, or a fork) will do damage to this fabric. Of my two cats, one left it alone (she likes scratching horizontal surfaces) and the other shredded a large part of the fabric (she likes clawing vertical surfaces).Still, if you can provide your kitty with an alternate scratching area and spray this down with something she doesn't like (mine doesn't like the smell of pet stain remover, for instance) you should be OK. But hell it's only $50.

It should work although I have not used it on louvered doors, I have used it in open rooms because the moths were attacking my oriental rugs. I think most people don't realize that pantry moths are the same moths that eat wool. I know I didn't until it was too late.

As far as mine goes, I can't speak on the directions because I never look at them. They make it more confusing for me. I just snapped in the brackets on the body and put the double sided tape on the window sill. Make sure to clean your window sill really well before putting the tape down or it won't stay. After almost a year using it, we did have to replace the double sided tape with sticky velcro. Our cat loves it. He can sit in the window and watch his big brothers (dogs) run around the back yard. Something to note, though - Our cat probably only weighs about 10 lbs.

Hi. You would just need to drape it over the areas that you do not want the cat on. Just make sure that you understand that the unit will shock you as well if you come in contact with it.Thank you!

Is there a cat door insert that will fit in the window? I had mine attached to a door with a cat door in it. I cut a hole in the netting to match the cat door. It attached between the plastic lip of the cat door and the regular door.

The Velcro should still work you will just need new adhesive. Get some heavy duty double stick tape for the back of the Velcro that mounts on the window sill. (I actually use short wide headed nails, 3 or 4, through the Velcro after I stick it down). I have 2 of these mounted in the window and I have 6 cats, 2 of which are almost 20 lbs so I want to make sure that they aren't going to come loose. Good luck on your move.

I don't know. I can tell you my part-time outdoor cat warmed up to this scratcher a lot faster than I expected. She gets her outdoor time (not lately since she doesn't like the Michigan cold). If you're out of options, this wouldn't be a terrible thing to try, but I can't promise it'll solve your predicament. Wish I could've helped more. Every cat is unique. Good luck.

Yes it would be safe for cats to jump onto. Its a very strong and well made product. I have it set on a high window and my cat loves it.

Actually, I think this may be too flimsy for your cat. My cat is a small, 8 lb. cat. It's supported by the two scroll worked legs on the bottom and velcro on the window sill. While it does come with mounting hardware, I'm not sure it's big enough for you cat to stretch out on. Wonder if they make square window seats?

Yes. If window too dirty, suction won't work so clean small area within reach to get it going. Use suction cup!

I cant answer that question. My cats sit and look out the windows vs climbing them or clawing them. I can tell you it isn't as heavy as the pet specific screen I have on my slider.

I have mine Inside with my window hold it in place. So it all depends on how your windows are built, not all windows are the same.
