Product Description

Give your cat the off-floor perch and security they love for bird-watching, people-watching or a cozy catnap. This comfortable resting spot is padded with a soft foam cushion and covered with a plush fleece cover of machine washable polyester. The Kitty Shelf will support up to 20 pounds. It is easy to install and move, attaching without screws or nails. Two metal brackets slip between the window sill and window sash. A vinyl-tipped arm braces it against the wall without marring.

I never thought I would find a cat perch that would work with the sliding windows in my mobile home, but to my surprise, this one installed in under 5 minutes without velcro tape or screws. This shelf is sturdy, even when my silly Burmese hangs off the edge of it. She loves this shelf. I live in San Diego, and right now the night time temperature is about 70. I leave the window open (yes, you can close the window without removing the perch when it rains or gets too cool) and when she gets too warm sleeping on my bed she just hops on the perch and catches the breeze. One thing I should mention - she is full grown and weighs 7 1/2 pounds. She litterally "boings" off the bookcase and up onto the perch, and it doesn't move. I only mention this because I can't say that if your cat weighs 20 lbs it will be as sturdy for your furball as it is for mine. Also, the sash in mobile home windows is slimmer than most regular windows so the brackets had to be hammered down between the sill and the sash, making it super sturdy. If your space between the sill and sash is a little too wide, try putting a wooden paint stirrer under the seat so it sits on the sill and adjust the bracket underneath accordingly. I did that on another window and it was fine. I will probably order another one very shortly for the master bedroom window, and another for a Christmas gift for a neighbor with a furball. These are wonderful, and the cover comes off for cleaning which is an added bonus. Well worth the price, I've seen the covers for these selling for $10, without the perch. Great bargain and no screw holes in the window sill!

I am very pleased with the kitty shelf. And also my kitten is pleased to. She loves to sit on it and look at the outside world. The shelf was very easy to assemble and fits quite nicely on my window ledge. For the price and shipping cost it was well worth it. I know I could have bought one much more expensive, but this will be great for my kitten for many years to come.

The shelf had to be modified to hold our cat's weight(8lbs). I had to drill out a hole on the wall support bracket and anchor to the wall. Easy to do. May be the manufacture could add this to the product ?
