Anyone's cat(s) do their business in the pockets? :-) I suspect mine will, even if there's a scoop in the way. UPDATE: None of mine has shown the slightest interest in using the pockets! However, I underestimated how much this thing will weigh once...

Had One that did a couple time. What we did was to take a box and cut 4 pieces to fit the pocket taped them together and put in pocket. The cardboard stick up about 3 inches. Problem solved.We are very happy with them. We have several cats and this allows us to scoop once a day instead of 3-4 time a day.

My initial thought was sure, why not..so I took my cat's collar off, hung it on the rearview mirror, and headed to the grocery store. I closed all the windows, and after finishing with my purchases, I walked out of the store, and turned on the tracker...sure enough..halfway down the parking aisle, it started picking it up...and bullseye...there was my car. Just a thought, though, there are two tracking devices, but only one locator...wonder if you could find the lost kids if you put one in their car :-) Have fun.

Maybe try tempting your kitty to enter with food treats, the laser, da bird, cat nip, etc.? One of my kitties LOVES the tunnel - visits often. We play a game of catch and she loves to use her tunnel as a hiding spot for that and other activities. (She's 10 lbs.) Her brother has ZERO interest in the tunnel...I suspect he may be too big for it at 16 lbs. Good luck!

I've had the condo since my cat was only a few months old, she is now slightly over ten pounds and still runs up and down it. I have it against a wall and occasionally you'll hear it bang into the wall when she throws her weight around but we've never had an issue of it tipping. My mother in law has the same one and has a huge stray cat, no problem with tipping, 5 cats might be a different issue.

My cat did not try to escape from the holster. I think she (more or less) felt secure in it. One thing if you have a rather long haired cat the velcro closure may snag the cats belly hair. Hopefully they will redesign the holster where it attaches on top rather than underneath.

The petmate is great and I use the compartments for scoopers. My cats don't mess with the scoopers but still miss the box ocasionally but it is very rare now. When I was using two smallers boxes they missed a lot of the time.

AudreyB, did you purchase this item and find a way to use it with your cat? I also have a very large cat, a Maine Coon that weighs about 22 pounds. I curious to see if you could use this product. Thanks!

Oh boy! I have two cats and so far so good, BUT....I also have a quilted pillowcase over it. Are you using the pillow with the side where you pour in the water facing up? If so that would make a difference. That side has to be underside of your pillow. Naughty kitty.

Sorry. Our cat weighs less than ten pounds, so we're not in a position to make a judgement re your situation. The first couple of times we tried it, she slipped right out of it and POUFF was gone...but not far.

Oh yes, it happens in my home. One of my cats acts like I never feed him, we'll call him fatcat. I use the Wonderbowl for skinnycat and put it on top of the refrigerator so its a little deterrent for fatcat. However, I have caught fatcat up there many times waiting for skinnycat to decide to eat. I don't really have a solution but canned air seems to bother fatcat, so I use that as a deterrent. Mealtime is a circus in my home :)

I have a cat that is extremely fat....and has becomelame....and that's why I bought the product. So far ....only problem....is that she puts her claws in it to get up...but she uses it...and can be next to me . We like the product....has worked for us.

You would have to have a book somewhere that is able to support your cats weight . Our cat is only 8lbs and she did not want to get in this. I am going to give it to Goodwill.

I had the same concern, but I think so. My cat's between 16-18 lbs and glides right on through. Cats are mostly all fur aren't they? Haha.

Many thanks for this post - I'll be very curious to see how your cat reacts to the pet potty. My cat is old, hates all the other cats, and doesn't share anything - we have, it seems, much the same situation. Good luck!

If your cat is very food motivated it probably could do that. This is one of the deeper styles. The flower style slo-bowl isn't as deep. The one with parallel lines would be probably be easiest for a cat to get the food out of. But I don't have a cat so I'm just guessing.

I would not recommend the backpack carrier for two full grown cats in 1 carrier. There will not be enough room. If you are buying two, 1 for each cat would work fine. Also, this backpack carrier should be used as such.. A backpack, if you are traveling with them on your person.
