I want to introduce a new kitten... Do you think it will fold if my 18 lbs cat jumps on the top?

Yes, top is only a fold-able flap. I wouldn't put anything over 5 lbs on the top.

Honestly, yes. The top isn't designed to hold any weight so if a heavy enough cat jumps on it, the sides will fold in. Has happened to me a few times. But, I think using these type of pens for introductions are much safer than just letting them roam and easier to deal with than a wire kennel or crate.

This is the single best purchase I have ever made in my history of being "cat mother" for the last 56 years!!!I just put my 19 pound cat on top of it, and it indented somewhat, but did not collapse. I would highly recommend this product!!! It is SUPERIOR.

Lol...yes it wil. But this "playpen" is one of the best cat purchases I have made. Even with the top off, 2 of my 3 cats jump in and out of it all the time. My new kitten - there was a 1 day "growl and sniff test" and they sorted it out. No big problems and one month later, they all play. One 15 lb 5 year old, one 1 year 10 lb and the kitten that is soon to be 4 months. Have fun. I wholeheartedly endorse this product.

Im not sure. When i put pressure on the sides it does fold down but springs back up quickly. Im pretty sure it wont collapse on the kitten.

That is a good question, I put the heavier cats on the bottom, any where from 10 to 17 lbs and the lighter ones on top........I would think you could go 20 lbs, it is really quite durable and strong, wondeful for Vet trips and just walks...hope that helps a little....have fun....

I am sorry to tell you-I threw mine away-fixed or not-it is NOT well made-a kitten would knock it over! Sorry!

Yes. My cat is 12 pounds & jumps on it. She doesn't jump to the top level though.

I have a kitten that loves it. I don't think a 12 pound cat would fit in the tube that is at the top. Not sure though. My kitten is 6 months old and it won't be long before she won't fit in that part. Hate to be a downer, but I'm not sure this is good for multiple cats or big cats. but I don't really have the experience about this.

Eh, I don't think it would topple but it does wobble a bit when my big cat jumps up to get on the box top (below the "beds" at the tip top). I ended up pushing mine into a corner to brace it. Mine sits on a hardwood floor.

No, not at all. We have 6 very active cats, two of them over 15 lbs. They all scratch and jump up on it and it's never toppled once, even when they are all running around playing together. It's a very sturdy item.

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! :(

No, I won't think so. It is rather an unstable cat tree....our cat won't jump to the top because it's so wobbly.Not a good choice for a bigger, heavier cat.

I would say so, it's only a few inches high, and kittens DO grow up...I also agree with the other person's answer, put a little box or something for it to step on if it's too high.

My puppy (6 lbs) was able to collapse it and tip it over to escape, so I would say your cat could do the same.

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.

It's doable, although of course assembly/breakdown goes much faster with two people. It folds down nicely for transport or storage, and cats seem to find it comfortable. Good luck with your adoption events!

I believe so! My kitten, Morgan, weighs 6.7 lbs. & he isn't crushing it when he plays with this toy. I do believe ALL cat toys are only entertaining to kittens under 7-8 months old. The assembly of this toy is easier than it looks once you get it.

I would say not. My cat is 14 pounds and cannot fit in this bed. The "roof" is flimsy and collapses.

My cat is only 8 months old so she does not weigh as much as your cats..however its pretty nice size inside i think they should be fine just be sure to have it in a corner due to the sizes of your cats jumping up it my cause it to Rick but..my cat booms all over it crazy not once had it fell over..i recommend this even if the larger car can't fit..there are many levels for he/she to lounge on
