My cat is about 17lbs. Is this too small for him or would he be able to fit on those platforms?

Might be too small for him. I have a slender cat and she does not get up on the top two...but the rest of it, she loves it!!

The platforms do seem small. My cat is about 14 pounds and she maneuvers fine with some room to spare . I also have an 8 month old kitten that is about 8 pounds and the bigger cat seems to enjoy the thing a lot more than the kitten.

Our cat is 10lbs. and can make it on the inside part with little extra space to spare. She usually stays on the platforms. A 17lbs. cat is much to large for this cat tree unfortunately.

I'm not sure the weight of my cats, but they are large adult cats, probably around 10 pounds, and they fit on there fine. They don't lay on the platforms but they do hop up there to sit and play.

I have long haired cat, about 15lbs, and its enough room for him to sit but he never lays down on it. He likes to stretch out and wouldn't fit on any of the platforms.

Your cat is too large for this unit. I am going to attach a larger platform. Our kitten is outgrowing this unit

WRONG, WRONG, WRONG Jeremiah. My cat is 17.5 lbs and has had the same condo for 9 years. As long as the condo is a good piece of furniture and not something made from cardboard or pressboard then there is no reason a large cat can't have a condo.

17 lb cat would fit on the platforms sitting. The cat would be too big to get in the cubby, but could lay down comfortablely on top.

I have a 16 pound maine coon boy. This is really too small for him ( of course he is the one who most wants to use it). The ladder leads up, and into the cubby box, which is very small, with small openings. He cannot fit into it, he can sense it is too small. Technically going through the cubby is how the cat is supposed to gain access to the platforms/ other levels as well. The circular platforms are about the size of a small pizza. The most a large cat can do is sit/ perch. There is not enough room for them to lay down/ chill out. I would recommend this for cats under 10 lbs. Its the right size for my 8-9 lbs siamese.

My cat is a big 18 pound kitty, and he fits just fine. Keep in mind the top bit is wobbly.

Yes, I believe it will be fine. We have 2 cats that are about 15 pounds each. They often play on it together, usually on the top 2 levels.We haven't had a problem with it wobbling a lot or falling over.

I agree too small I also have a 17lb cat. he enjoys the scratching aspect but that is all.

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.

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.

Right now I have 2 kittens using it and they are 5 and 7 lbs respectively. They are both on it at the same time with no problems. I think it's more a matter of length than weight with this set up. The little paw platform is a bit on the small side since it doesn't have any borders but the cubby and the bed would fit a larger cat easily. One suggestion with a larger cat tho would be to go with a different configuration than is shown. I noticed that a few other folks did this and I followed suit. It just seems the with the bed at the top it's really tall and being a narrow set up would be more inclined to be thrown off by too much activity. Sorry for the long response, just wanted to be thorough. Right now I have 2 kittens using it and they are 5 and 7 lbs respectively. They are both on it at the same time with no problems.

I have a 11lb cat and he does fit but it's snug. He can't stand up in it at all. I need something bigger.

Dear C. Kristen Whitworth,I think you will be hard pressed to find a stand that would fit the size of your cat. Our Tom-Cat is about 11 pounds and he just fits with no room to spare.

No! It is hardly big enough for me and my cat and I weigh like under 100 lbs! It's pretty and I like it, but if I were you I'd keep looking! Sorry for the bad news! :(
1559691
Yes! We have a 19lb cat and he jumps all over it. It's a tad wobbly up high, but holds him just fine! The only one that is too small for him is the little basket on the left that hangs off by itself. It's only about a 10 inch diameter.

It seems like it would be sturdy enough, but I'm not sure if it would be big enough. We have a 13 lb cat and it fits him about right, but he doesn't have much extra space.
160302
I don't think so. Unless your cat likes small spaces... which some cats do. My cat is about 7lbs, and he barely fits. My other cat who is 5lbs seems to be more comfortable.

I have two 10 lb cats. They got on it a couple times to sniff around, but they don't really like it. It didn't wobble too much, but I think if they really got to playing they might knock it over. I say get a wider width and not so tall it might be better. Looking into making my own from real tree logs. Good luck.

I think it may be too small for her. My cat is pretty petite and its about perfect for her! It may work but would be a tight fit. Hope that helps!

It states in the description that it will accommodate up to 18lbs. I have a large cat 15 lb and he does very well on this

It would be too small. My cat is 11lb and it's too small for him now! Go with the next size up!
