We actually originally tried to return this because it was so wobbly but that was a huge ordeal trying to get it back to ups that after about 3 weeks we gave up and brought it in side. Not sure if the one we got is defective or if the tall piece is supposed to move so much. I also don't like that they put the staples at the back of the tower instead of the side since the cats wouldn't be able to climb as much there. Cats liked it until an awkward dismount from the top caused my cat to damage his knee.  It will be going on the curb.

This is a nice addition to our scratching post, but my one, well two complaints are that A: one cat imediately started to chew, pull at the straps that Velcro under the seat, holding the pad on. Some of the stick on Velcro gave way so I had to duct tape it on. B: The cats are very active and they make running jumps to the seat. This has cause the very cheap and small plastic tabs that hold the seat on (it slides on and locks with the tabs) to bend and fail. I have modified them with just a metal tab you can get in any hardware store. Simple fixes to make the product useable, but it would be nice if the manufacturer would deal with these issues. Otherwise, my cats love it and use a it a lot. They also LOVE the scratching post it goes on. Great investment there.

Nicely constructed kit, but two issues.

First, it doesn't drain, so the seed pods can get moldy if you live in a damp environment.

Second, not every kitty is going to go for these. Our cat mostly ignored the grass until the grass had shriveled up and died.  And then, for whatever reason, he became interested in it and somehow removed the pods from the unit and batted the dirt and dried grass all over our living room. I don't believe he ever ate any of it.

Mixed experience, at best.

Well I have the two most hyper cats ever and one is 10 and the other is 1 and they have a blast on it. Ive only had it for less than 24 hours too. Luckily my husband can fix and rebuild things but the pouch that sticks out might break soon because I have an overweight old cat who thinks hes skinny and and young and will fit himself into anything he puts his mind to. But it seems sturdy and the fabric is nice for the price. I don't think theyll use the round cubby on the second floor but thats alright. Maybe one day if we get a kitten. They haven't used the hammock at the bottom. Well sorta. My big cat went down the hole and swung off it. Doubt theyll use it again.

Liked a lot of things about the carrier, but will have to add support to the sides in the form of plastic sheets, which will hopefully allow my 6 pound kitty to be in the carrier without ca lapsing the sides.  It crowds her, and I intentionally got the largest size so she would have room to move around or lay down, but when the sides fold in it makes her uncomfortable. The sides need more strength, even though they don't even have ventilation in the lower part of the sides, so it is not because of netting, they are just not resilient enough to keep their structure when a pet is in the carrier.

Both my cats enjoy it - I did have to take the cushion out for one of them to go in it (with the cushion, he had to scrunch too much, and would get halfway in and then back out). The cushion is also striped on both sides (not solid as shown in the picture), if that matters to you.

I ordered this based on reviews from other pet owners and I'm glad I did.  The cat who is dwelling in this cage is small because he has IBS and the structure is sturdy enough for him, but I'm not sure it would hold up as well if I put one of my fat cats in it.  The instructions do give a maximum weight limit and also warns people to be careful about using it for very small pets because the bars are wider apart and the doors don't close flush to the frame. (There is a 1 inch gap that a small animal could stick its paw through or possibly get stuck.)  Having said that, I am very happy with the cage and it's perfect for a place to isolate a sick or trouble-making cat.  The engineering seems to be well thought out and the instructions are adequate although some of "us" still had to use the trial and error method even after reading the instructions.  The three doors allow easy access to each level for cleaning and to give some good petting time to the cat without taking him out of the cage. (He's partly feral and cannot be held but likes to be petted.) The 2 shelves are roomier than most and I solved the noise problem (when they jump from one shelf to the other) by putting rubberized shelf liner between the shelf tray and the frame it sits on. I'm thinking about buying one of those mesh cat tunnels to extend out from the bottom door to give my cat more room to move around, feel the carpet under his paws and be closer to the other cats while still contained.  Until we get his IBS under control he will have to be isolated and this cage is more pet friendly (and owner friendly) than the medium size dog crate we had been using.  Another plus is that this cage has wheels so you can move it from room to room.....and they even provide stops to put under 2 wheels when you don't want it to roll.  I am pleased with my purchase and feel it is well worth the price (and shipping was free through Amazon.)

Update May 2013: I have gotten another cage and the cat that's living in it is somewhat weak and having difficulty getting from level to level.  I purchased 2 ClosetMaid Hanging Baskets which have 2 hanging hooks on each end.  2 hooks hang from the bars under the trays and 2 hooks hang from bars at the end of the cage.  Each shelf hangs about 8 inches below and perpendicular to the tray above it.  Because the shelf is wire I made a platform of foam board, covered it with a towel secured by safety pins, and to stabilize the platform I used giant safety pins to attach it to the wire shelf. You can find the ClosetMaid Hanging Basket online and the pictures will help you visualize how it works.  They cost from about $12 to $19 and it's a great way to give sick cats a "leg up."  I do love my cat cages; I have found that one of my fat cats (12 lbs) frequently likes to sleep on the outside top of the cage and both cages have stood up well even when the cat outside the cage and the cat inside the cage have swatting matches.  I also found a way to attach an octagon shaped canvas/mesh cabana to the bottom (open) doorway of the cage as an extension of sleeping/lounging space for the cat.  This really is a great cage with lots of possibilities.

Has been good so far but need to switch to something else for my cat who has become more elderly.

My only complaint is that the gray reflective part collar has started to fray slightly. My kitties tend to rough house quite a bit, but my other cat's (different) collar has not frayed. I'll keep an eye on it and will need to replace if it becomes a problem. Otherwise I think the safety latch seems good and he likes his collar.

There's a noticeable difference in my 13 yr old kitty's level of activity. And she's super picky about food but when I sprinkle this over wet food, she licks the bowl clean. Not advisable to sprinkle over dry food, my cat won't touch it like that.

Had to modify it a little bit to make it sturdy. The fabric seat is also a little flimsy and my cat managed to tear it up fairly quickly. A problem easily fixed with a blanket

I needed to switch my sickly old kitty to a limited ingredient diet. He's very picky but eats this pretty well. Problems are that so far each case has come with one or more dented cans and twice in a row a case has had one can with nasty dried food all over it. Also a problem is there's always a thick dark layer on the bottom that my car refuses to eat.

I have very mixed feelings about this item. Overall, the features are great. We love that we can put our cat in through either the top or side door. Love that it folds up and can be put away.

But it's heavy and a little bit tricky to fold and unfold (the clasps can be a little difficult).

If the carrier was just a bit lighter, it would be much easier to love. As it is, although we like it and use it some, it's not completely the go-to carrier I would have liked.

I have three cats, all longer than average, and live in a cold area. I thought this bed might be something that my kitties would like because whenever we use an electric heater, they tend to get right up in it and stick their little faces millimeters away. I joke about it but I seriously worry that they will end up cooking their eyeballs or something so I was hoping this bed would take the place.

My issues with this bed are the following:

-- the size is awkward for cats. It's just a tad too large for a cat because the sides are a bit too far to hug a single cat and it's too small for my cats to put up with squishing in there together. My cats are on the large side though so this may now be true for everyone.

-- the instructions state that you should only plug it in when in use and to unplug when not. My cats are not really fans of the bed unless it's heated (it's a bit stiff compared to what they usually prefer because of the heating coils along the bottom) so I'm caught in a catch-22. Do I keep it heated so my cats will use it but go against the warnings on the instructions? Or do I follow the instructions and then my cats will hardly ever use it?

Overall though, I really like this bed for the winter months. We used it for about four months straight and whenever it *was* heated, there was usually a cat in there sleeping for hours on end. Now that it's warming up a bit, we've put it into storage but will definitely be giving it another go once it gets cold again. I'm not sure if this is something we can't live without but it's a nice little luxury just the same.

kitties seems to like it as much as any other litter box. Sits in the living room and no one even notices its a litter box! Its not as sturdy or as "solid" as I thought it would be, but does the job. Had to make a cut into the plastic litter pan to make the front entrance shallow enough to match the door entrance. I would recommend covering the inside with contact paper if your kitty sprays, or expect to clean walls more often.
