Would this be high enough for a cat?

It depends on how nimble your cat is. I have 2 larger cats (15 or so pounds), and they have not jumped it.
2054202
I have two very fat cats - both of them can jump it no problem. I would not use for a cat.
2054203
It is so far for mine. They jumped way too easy over the shorter ones, but I'm sure it won't take them too long to figure out this tall one. It's much taller than I imagined too. I'm 5'7'' and it hits me at my waist or a little higher. I'm very satisfied with it.
2054204
this is the tallest gate I've found, I'm sure any dog could knock it down or a cat could possibly jump it but I don't think you'll find a taller gate
2054205
Ooh, I don't know. If your cat is a good jumper then maybe not. My cat has never even attempted it.

Our cats were able to jump this gate, including the cat with a cast on his hind leg. We bought the gate to help keep him contained in the bathroom while his leg is healing. First he walked between the bars (the gap between the bars is about 2.75 inches in places). After we duct taped PVC pipe to the bars to narrow the openings, he changed tactics and easily jumped to the top of the gate. It's a nice gate, but it hasn't been able to contain our cats.

I am not familiar with how high cats jump. But I have a golden and he stands next to it on his two legs and puts his other two on top and he barely clears the topwith his shoulders.. I love that you can walk thru. But there are spaces which a cat would probably squeeze thru.

It is pretty tall and the cat would have to clear 40 inches because the rail is too thin for the cat to land on top.

I have used this gate for years and any fairly nimble cat can DEFINITELY jump it. Even my highest jumping dog couldn't clear it, but none of my 3 cats (even my older, lazy one) has had a problem jumping it when they want to. The cats usually jump to the top and stand there and then jump down. The top bar is only about 3/4 of an inch wide but that is plenty for most cats to stand on. However, I don't think there are many grown cats that could fit through the bars - the widest gap is less than 2.5 inches. None of my adult cats can go through the bars (smallest is 9 pounds), but a kitten could certainly get through. I have used this gate for years and any fairly nimble cat can DEFINITELY jump it.

Bought it to stop the cats from jumping the shorter walk-through gate - the both cleared it within two days. One is a small and old Bengal and she's determined to get into the bedroom - the other is a big huge 18 pound Tuxedo beach stray - he cleared it while I was putting it up.... What now?

In my opinion this would NOT be substantial enough for an animal that weight. Even 75# might be pushing it. It is more the stability of it and step size that I would worry about. My cat is about 15# and I had 19# cat that I would not have used this size for.

It's max 3 inches from the ground. The kitty most likely wouldn't fit under but will lose a lot of toys underneath.

yes depending on the height of yourceiling you may have to trim the pole which is hard plastic to fit.One of my cats actually will go to the way top.

We recently bought this item or cat Minnie. Your cat will be elevated approximately 30". Every house is different I would imagine. Our house is a ranch that was built in the 50's so most of my window start at 40" from the floor. So for my cat... no. But I have this item in the corner of our bedroom and this is easily our cats favorite place to sleep. She is a 7.5 pound cat and loves to curl up in it. Scratching post is a fav too.

No, I won't think so. It is rather an unstable cat tree....our cat won't jump to the top because it's so wobbly. Not a good choice for a bigger, heavier cat.

It would support the weight, but the top levels don't have a lot of support. My cat is 12 lbs and when he jumps to the top it sways a bit.

I would think it's too tall and there'd be little room for the cat to maneuver with it in there. I have it sitting right outside.

Yes, it is sturdy enough that a cat would not tip it over, unless it's a really huge cat dropping onto it from above. If you're just talking about a cat hopping onto it from the desktop, no problem.

I would say yes. This is by far the most solid perch I have ever had. It is solid wood with solid wood legs and window clips. My two cats (9 pounds and 13 pounds) sit on it together all the time and they have no issues at all. It doesn't even budge. I think your cats will be fine.

No, it's barely big enough to furnish water for a cat. You will need something much bigger for large animals.

The top platform is a little over 16" wide so, if your cats are on the smaller side (or get along really well), yes. I have a 17 lb and a 12 lb cat and it isn't big enough for them both.
227125
yes the size should be sufficient but with a cat that size the issue will probably be reliability... i would not recommend this size unit for a cat that size

No! The middle perch is barely large enough for a cat to use as a step to the high perch. My cat is 8 pounds and this is really too small for her. She uses the high perch but only because I set up another type of step for her to reach it. The thing is barely usable.

It depends on the cat. Some will be fine but I would think that some would climb over it.
1726916
Not that I can see. You could raise it off the floor so the cat could get under it. I can't imagine my cat not just jumping/climbing over it

We have a small cat and we're loving how this is working out. I can imagine if you have a very large cat you might run into issues with the height limitations this imposes due to the shelf at the top.
