Would this work leading to a kitchen counter which is 36 inches high? It's for my cat and I feed her at a certain place on the counter so the dogs do not get her food. She is getting older and jumping up on the counter is starting to take its toll.

Yes I think it would work for that..it would be a little steep but a cat would have no problem with that...I use mine so the dog can get in and out of our SUV as he is handi cap and can not jump it works well for that too...the only problem I have found with it is that when it is raining it is too slick even with the non slip coating, I hav a cat and just tested it for you with the countertop and my cat went up it with no problem...my cat is 14 and not as able to do the things yunger cats can do, I actually have a cat staircase leading to the counter for him

I am not sure. I guess it would depend on if your cat climbs or would be able to jump over it.

Because of the sloping sides, it may not be big enough. My cat is 17 pounds and she stepped in, peed over the front and that was that. The best solution I have found if your cat likes to stand and pee where they land in the litter box is a regular large plastic bin with lid. Sit the bin on the lid and fill it with cat litter. As long as your cat is OK to jump into the litter box this works really well. My cat is arthritic now so I bought a small kids plastic step stool - works great!

I have the same problem but cats vs dogs, I will order this and try it on the top of door but move it closer to the hinge side to open up the door more, I'll let you know the resultsFrankOk, I installed on the top edge of the door about midway, it works fine to allow cats to their box. You have to be tall enough to unlatch when you enter though and overall it seems easy to break if you forget to unlatch, I wish it was stronger.

The handle does not stand up as the picture shows. It lies flat until you lift it up to use as a handle. The height with the handle flat is just under 36 inches. If your clearance is 36 inches, this will fit under your counter.

I was asking the exact same question.........I want to buy a low table to set two different size bowls on for dogs; a larger bowl for water, and a smaller bowl for food. I cannot find an elevated feeder that accommodates different sized bowls.......so this seemed like a possible solution: just buy a low table, and set out whatever size bowls you want. Did it work for you? Was it sturdy enough with legs extended to keep from wobbling?

We have 2 cats which total close to yours and they both run and leap off of ours frequently. It would most certainly need to be anchored somewhere, either the floor or a wall, to prevent it from tipping. Each post has a 2" bolt which holds it to the post below or above, plastic wrapped in carpet/cord. The steps would not hold up however. They are only held by a single L bracket at the top. A screw through the bottom or an extra bracket on the top would help but you need to be careful that you don't leave anything exposed that would cut the cat.

I have an average size house cat and I would say NO to your question. I have elevated my gate up so that my dogs can't jump over this thing (the top rail is 40" above the floor instead of ~30") My cat still jumps over it with relative ease. Since I raised the gate up, I had to put a piece of wood below the gate to keep the cat/dogs from going under the gate. This gate isn't going to work unless you have an unfit cat that can't jump

Possibly, but not if the cat is anything like my little "bull in a china shop". If you did, you would probably need to build a short wall around the shelf to keep the bowls from falling to the ground. And the short section of the second flat level would be your best bet, as it would not interfere with progress to the top perch. If you have a delicate graceful cat and a dog who wouldn't leap up and topple the whole tower over to get at the food, it might be possible but there is the possibility of a big mess! Good luck!

It should. I'm feeding cats, but raccoons have tried to get in and knocked it over - it didn't open. There is provision to screw it down, which if I had used it would not have knocked over.

Barely-but not facing forward. The base and tower width is 19.75" (with the base opening sideways). The width of tower and shelves is about 24" (with base opening forward). If the unit is tight against bookcase it might limit the cat's ability to climb onto the tower safely. However, I believe it could work out if adjacent door is typically closed when your cat uses the tower. Good luck!

it would probably not be tall enough.it's according to how tall your dog is.I use it for my 3 cats. It gives them plenty of room.

Only if the cats don't knock them off getting up and down. Plus the entire thing sways a bit when they jump up. You'd have to watch first where they usually launch themselves on the shelves to get up and then reversing that getting down. Might be better to put a small shelf on the wall by it for food with a slight lip so they don't knock the stuff off.

Should not be a problem. The mounting hardware will let you set the tray at two different heights. Even the high setting ( Closest to bottom of countertop ) should leave you more than enough clearance.

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.

I have a full grown active Calico. She runs at the tower leaping to the top shelf, it wiggles a little when she does this but I have never had a problem with it leaving the floor in any way. My cat is not fat but is long & muscular. I would buy this item again or recommend this climbing tower to my friends.

I would say no. My cats would definitely not fit let alone not be able to stand up in this carrier. On the packaging it says for up to a 9 inch dog so I would go by that standard. If your cat is only nine inches tall from foot to head you would be ok but in my opinion it would be very tight fit and they wouldn't be able to even stand up.
