How much weight will this hold? I am thinking about using this as sleeping area for 2 feral cats (I will remove the wire from the bottom).

this is PERFECT for your feral cats - the "upstairs" area is a bit small because there is an opening in the middle, down to the ground level but .. if you do NOT take out the wire - elevate so there is an up and down level...and make sure it is shielded below from driving rain or wind, should be big enough for both ...i am nuts about cats ...and i bought one for each ...sleep upstairs, litter box in the bottom for when i have to bring them inside and contain them ..these shelters are perfect for cats !!!

It will hold two cats. It is cute but mine is in the garage for a sick chicken. I doubt you would get more than a couple of years outdoors. IKeep it from the elements would be best.

You should be fine. Our bun in it easily is 6lbs and jumps all around no issues. Plus he has toys, water food bowls, litter box on the bottom

I think it would hold them both but wouldn't expect them to be comfortable if they are about 10 pounds apiece. I used it to transport 2 kittens but they were each around 5 or 6 pounds at the time and were able to curl up nicely with each other. I would suspect that if you have very mellow cats it would work for you, but if they're large, it wouldn't offer them a lot of room.

There is none published in the literature/instructions, so I'm not sure of any official ruling. The support slats are about 3/4-1" thick, though I opted to have a slim box spring since this was my first bed frame and I was apprehensive on depending just on slats. It's only me and my cat regularly sleeping on the bed but from other site reviews on non storage versions I'd wager between 600-800 lbs.

My cats don't weigh that much, but the window perch is very sturdy. It will defininatly hold him. It is very well made and my cats love it! Hope that helps.

I have a 13lb and a 10lb cat. It holds either of them but they rarely use the boxes. They prefer the top tiers and each if them fits with ample room. Had the cat tree over a year and it's suffered abuse from 2 cats, a 2-3yr old and a dog and is just now becoming wobbly.

Not much at all. It doesn't hold my ONE (small) cat's weight and continues to fall over anytime she tries to jump onto it. She now has no interest in it because it's not a very secure tower. You would have to secure it with brackets to the wall and ceiling in order for it to be stable.

I'm not sure but my cat is 12 lbs and it opens on that due to flaw in construction. I'm sure it can't hold that much more weight.

The shelf would easily hold the weight, but I personally think you would want two shelves together as they are narrow. I added a second shelf for our cat, she is about the same weight. Also, the shelf that came with the cage was slippery plastic, we also added a piece of carpeting, securing it with double sided tape. The cage is sturdy, we are pleased with it.

Hi, I don't have any one cat that large, but my two cats, who each weigh about 9 pounds, have gotten into the hammock together and it held them just fine.

Both my cats can lay in it together. I don't know exactly what they weigh? My guess together they would be around 15 pounds. It doesn't move even when they jump down from or up to it. I imagine it could hold at least 20-25 lbs.

I would never underestimate the will of a cat- but I would suspect this would hold pretty well, its a wide cut of velcro and the angle of the pull would make it more difficult. My cat was under 10 lbs when I was using it- so there is that- but he was a very excitable maine coon- so thats gotta count for something:)

The stuff is strong enough to hold up to kitty claws, but the support wires are weak and so if any cat or kitten jumps on it from the outside that part will collapse. The bottom is canvas but it is not zipped and it's held on by velcro tabs. My kitten was able to figure out how to get out of it after one day.

I think it will be tough enough for a semi feral cat. It's pretty heavy synthetic material. My cat has scratched at it and it hasn't been damaged - I've had the tent for about 9 months.

I have cats ranging from 6 lbs to 25 lbs that run up and down it all day long. I have NEVER had to worry about it. You dont even need the ladders because the cats dont use them and they dont support it at all. My cats stretch or scratch on the bottom ladder.

Yes. I would say this is strong enough for small kittens. As I've mentioned in another post on this item, I recommend replacing the wooden door stops with latches if you really intend to KEEP something inside and not escape. I also added a wire mesh bottom to mine (comes open). I tried keeping my rabbits in it on dirt without the wire mesh, and they dug under and out the very first night.

I don't think a cat could lift it from the tank or separate the wire. I believe a critter would be safe inside from a cat.

I have three cats one is about 13lbs. No problem with stability. You could use metal angle brackets to fasten to wall in a couple of places. I think the large flat areas were made of plywood so you probably would need to use 'T-nuts' to fasten to wall.
