Does the lid stay on tightly, for example if held upsidedown it doesn't fall off? I need to keep the cats away from the tissue.

Sorry Flo, This lid just sits on top of the container and would fall off if the holder was turned over.

It is a loose lid. However, I bought it for the same reason, and the cats don't come near it.

No, it doesn't stay on that tight. But there is a lip on the lid, so it won't slide off easily if they bat at it. Not sure how crafty your cats are! They'd have to lift the edge to knock it off, then would have to get the roll out.

The lid just sits on the base it does lock on the base to a certain degree. (There is a channel on the lid which kind of interlocks on the rim of the base.) I know the dog has tried to lift it, and she has not been able to get it off. When I go to change or clean it out it take two hands to lift it off. Its pretty big I don't think your cats will have a problem...

Yes the lid stays on, the can is perforated. It depends on the humidity, and size of your safe, the indicator will tell you when it needs to be regenerated.

No, the only way the lids stay open is to step on the foot pedal. I thought that could be a nuisance but it's hands free and I don't actually find a problem with it. It's a great garbage can.

Once you untie the ends it definitely stays open...cats run through it, cycle in it, sleep in it.

It's pretty air tight, but my cat figured out how to break into it by tipping it over and pulling the top off. I'm now in the market for something with a screw down lid.

It closes with a magnet latch. I doubt that it would be opened easily by the kitties. Mine seems fairly secure.

The lid snaps down and should not leak. (Haven't tried it, though a bucket with guck in it shouldn't tip over.)

I have had no problem with the lid coming off. If you snap it in place, it is very secure. Even the squirrels haven't been able to take the lid off.

Yes, it stays open, but only all the way open. Once it starts to close it will fall shut. Laura N. is correct. It is very light weight. Lid would not cause bodily harm, but would startle small child. Kids learn so fast, should not be a problem.

Edges of the lid are slightly higher than the middle which is fairly flat. The seat itself is very slightly rounded at edges. I imagine your cat's claws will damage the surface though.

The lid does come off completely and then velcros on both sides tightly with a round piece of velcro. It's very secure.

Yup....If the container is full of biscuits it's slightly secure but once it's half full, it's can topple off easily... My cat has experimented it quite a few time till I fed up and has donated it to Mr dustbin...���

There are strong bungee cords that hold the lid tight. We have "wild cats" and so far no problems.

Yes, we've never had a problem with the lid falling off. If you try to pour with a full unfiltered reservoir then it might be a different story (unless you physically hold the lid down), but otherwise it's always stayed on perfectly.

I have 4 cats and they used it. The only problem is that it is so dark inside with the lid down they had a hard time hitting the box and urine got underneath the pan. I found cleaning the box was somewhat difficult. The lid doesn't stay open and I had to prop it open with something while I worked to clean the box. It's a nice piece of furniture, but I bought another litter box and am using it to put the cat food on top to keep it away from the dogs.

The top does stay open. which is great if your cat is still doped up from surgery. our cats weight 14 & 15 lbs. had no problems for me as well as our vet. : )
