Can you turn the bed so the bolster in away from window for added support for large sleepy cats?

Yes. The bolster goes on the cover and can be on front or back. I have it on the back so the cats can look out the window when they're sitting there.
248461
YES! This is exactly what we did, the cats use the bolster to keep them from rolling off the shelf. They use it as a pillow as well. I would recommend turning it so the bolster faces in.
248462
Yes you can. The pillow/cloth top is completely removable so that it can be washed so you can chose which side the bolster is facing when you put it on the plastic framing.
248463
Yes, the entire cover comes off to wash, so you could just put it on backwards.
248464
Yes, you can! I did that for the same reason - there is a picture of my boy with the bolster away from window in the costumer pictures! Works in any direction you put it.Easy to get on and of too! My boy loves to lean in the bolster and look out of the window....

Yes, you can turn it , so it faces the room.The perch is an oval shape so you can turn the padding around and have the bolster face the room. My cat didn't like it that way, but other cats would sure like it.

You can turn the bed but I live in a cold climate and like the bolster to be against the cold window. I don't know if there would be anymore support for large cat.

There is a zipper at the top, under the striped awning. That's what I use for putting my cats in. When it's time to take them out, I either reach in and pick one up off the top hammock (the zipper only lets you reach in that far), or I remove some of the closures for the door and swing it open and pick up a cat that way.

No, my cats don't go outside so this gives them a room with a view. You should be able to open the window if you wanted to though.

no..the bars are too close. My cat just jumps up and over....or if you have a large dog? you could raise the bottom of the gate to where the cat can crawl under..but the dog (baby?) can not..

You could, but the computer would still be off to your side. The main table (without the wings) would only overhang your bed by about 9".

They can, but they may not. One of my 4 cats does and her little belly hangs down a bit but she is obviously comfy. My tower has held up well and has been really flexible. Sometimes we split it up and put different sections in different rooms.

Yes, you can. Directions are in the manual under training a cat to use the door.

Yes you can. It can be boxed up so it looks like a bassinet to lay them down comfortably.

No. But make sure you clean the window and place it securely,push on it and if it doesn't pop off your good for a heavy cat.

You could leave them off. There's a middle leg as well for added support of the rails so I'm not sure what would happen if that wasn't on. It's a great bed. I love it

You can, but because the sides are so low, it will look weird. I just put a mattress on and there is plenty off support.

No. In fact I wish u could because there's a metal brace around the front part to help hold it open that makes the top part a little heavy. My bed's opening isn't very wide at all and the heaviness of the bar scares my dog when it lays on him. Maybe if your dog is bigger than a chihuahua it won't be an issue but mine (a chihuahua and bulldog) both refuse to go near it. If I could take off the top I might could at least use it as a pillow bed for them.

.I haven't been able to use mine because the window sills are too wide. I live in a very old(100 yrs) condo building. I think if the window rolls out instead of in, you could use it. I'm not sure what to do with mine but I know my cats would love it.

So glad it worked for you as well. I, too, had to put a soft towel on the lounger before my cat jumped in. She must not have liked the feel of the bed's cover.

It would be a very tight fit and only in one way. I would not advise as it would restrict a cat's feeling of security by feeling "boxed" in.

Maybe. They probably couldn't lie on their sides comfortably, but they could sit up or be on their chests (with paws underneath). I had to buy two of them to take my cats on a long car trip and laid the carriers on their sides so the cats (who each weigh 12 lbs) could lie on their sides and be comfortable. There wouldn't be any issue transporting two of them for a short distance (i.e. car into a building, vet office, etc.), but for a longer trip I'd say maybe not.

It can be prevented. It is designed to sense movement below its line of sight, so I installed it upside down at head level. That way, my two cats can't trigger it even if they climb almost to shoulder height. (To clarify, I installed it in a place where it doesn't get direct sunlight from above.)
