Will this box work for cats that like to 'perch' on the rim of the box? Thanks.

The rim is removable so probably not good to perch on for a big cat...ours weighs 22 lbs so needed deep large with edges to keep cat from gettin litter outside the box

Hi Beth, Yes Kitty can perch on the rim of this litter box. This is the reason it was no good for my Stella. She is an older cat , she didn't perch on the rim but she has a tendency to back up to the edge & hang her butt over it & urinate outside the box. Hope this was helpful.

That is why I bought it. It works very well. The edges are wide enough for the cat to stand or squat comfortably.

I don't know because I have the litter box inside a wicker cat furniture box (kind-of looks like an end table).

I wouldn't buy this box as the first time I went to change the litter the box cracked in half.

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.

Not high enough. If you have an over-achiever that sprays high, this will only leave a mess. I also have another litter box that is a corner box, same height etc . On both of these boxes if the cat shoot high the urine will leak between the lid and the bottom and go onto your floor. Probably not what you are looking for. This litter box in particular is very frustrating being as it is oval you cannot scoop out the solids in the corners without twisting the scooper in a Houdini fashion. I have gone back to using my $5.00 special of a Rubbermaid or similar lidded storage box. You cut whatever size hole in the side that you want and I also cut a large hole in the lid so the cat would not be claustrophobic. It works well. Bottom line is this particular box is not worth the money in my opinion

It depends on the cat size itself and although one of my cats is really big and its the Turkish angora breed ,but the litter box is suitable for him and with the high edges it prevents them from scattering dirt and litter around the box .

Yes. This has an attractant to encourage kitties to use the litter box. It's helpful if you have one that might prefer to go outside the box, or with multiple cat households.

Yes, I think it will work for you. This litter box is by far the largest I have seen. I was a bit shocked at its size when I received the first one. However, it worked so well and minimized the amount of litter being kicked out of the box that I ordered a second.

Yes, it definitely works and my cat loves it. My cat also enjoys sitting on top of it and hanging out. It looks very nice, considering it's for a litter box. I also got an extra large neutral color litter mat to go beneath it and it looks like a rug from a distance.

I think it could and should be fine for some cats. However, but not if you cat figures out how to climb over it.

Yes, this cage works great for my cats - use small litter box shoved to the back, bed in the middle and food near the front corner. Holders for food and water that clip to the sides are handy and the cats get used to them quickly. I have 9 cats and use this one for isolation when needed- leave it open and they all want to live in it. Very easy to keep clean - the tray is deep enough that if you do have a spill it is not a problem.

It's best if used in a corner. The size of the box is really good for big kitties.

I have an 11-year old, 26-pound, clawless cat and he does just fine with it. He can even squeeze himself into the smaller box! (He hasn't been on the top 3 perches, however--he's too big for them).

I removed the hinged door as my cats wouldn't use the box with it on; so I can't really respond to this question. My cats are happy with the size of the box and its roominess and use it without trouble for them or me.

This is a big box it might fit a "large" corner. There are some boxes out there made for corners. But I love this box and so do my cats who are 4 (big) and 17 (small). Roomy and easy to clean. Like the top as it lets light in and not a dark place.

Depends on size of litter box. Would likely work, but not a lot of play space.

Not while either of my 2 cats were in it, but they do occasionally slide and need to be re-positioned. My one cat is pretty heavy (14 lbs) and jumps up onto it, so don't think this would happen with a lighter cat or if the perch is situated low enough for the cat to just walk onto it. Both my cats love this perch!!

If you purchase the Iris High Shield box that is recommended, it fits inside the box and has high enough walls that nothing will get on the sides of the box....unless your cat is really crafty

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.
