I will start with “I am 20 years as a dog owner, and the first time cats parent.” 6 month ago we decided to rescue two 6 and 7 months old kitties. Neither one of our pups (Boxers) have been exposed to cats. To ensure proper pets introduction we want kitties to have a “safe harbor”. We also were planning to use it as an outdoor In closure when all of us outside. Fur-babies (pups) and Pur-babies (kitties) did amazing, and we had nothing to worry about. They still do, not one hiss or raised paw/claw.
Now, back to enclosure: money well spent item. I have researched at least 10-12 different enclosures, and if I will have to buy one again, I will go for the same one again. We are in the South East region which allows us to take advantage of the snowless winters. The assembly was fast and easy: 2 hour job for one person. It took about a week to find the best way to arrange the shelves and 2 hammocks. Despite that we found good placement for all 4 items, it still felt that the rest of the space was underutilized. I was considering to purchase an additional shelf. It seems that quite a few costumers have done so. But during Hobby Lobby trip, I found a fruit basket that could have made a nice swinging “hammock”. So, I got the basket and roll of burlap rope and pulled it through the basket in the way that it provide an additional support and stability. I combined threads and braided the end. The “fruit basket hammock” was secured to the cage with heavy duty zip ties. A small pillow serves as a nice “kitty mattress”. My smaller kitty absolutely loves it.
We decided against the wheels that came with the enclosure. The cage is light enough that we did not have any difficulty to go back and forth indoor/outdoor.
Hammocks: at first cats were avoiding at any cost. So, I put them tightly and snagged to maximize the tension. Once cats discovered that hammocks were more “stable and stationary”. They start to use them consistently. In two months of consistent use, one of the hammocks clip broke, just cracked in two halves. I purchased a bag CC of small clips and repaired the hammock. Within a week, two strings on the second hammock were ripped off. I had some 1/2 inch ribbon, and re-enforced the entire hammock all the way around. I intentionally left long ends, so I can use them as ties, to tie hammock to the enclosure frame. Personally, ties would have been a better option from the begin with, I wish that manufacturer would switch from clips to ties. Ties provide better control for the hammock’s tension.
At the bottom of the enclosure we arranged two different types of scratch boards. Every single items inside and outside enclosure used by cats. It is their place to play and rest. Once we discover that they love to climb it, we throw one of the beds on top. That bed was another Hit.
Another thing to add, because we were moving enclosure back and forth (inside/outside), we re-enforced sides with a few small zip ties on each side. You probably can see them in the photos.
We added a few hanging feather toys and scratch mat on one of the shelves to entertain the kittens.
At the end, despite all the breaks, we all absolutely love it. It is a long lasting purchase.

Pros: Fairly easy to put together, instructions are good and all the parts were present. Didn't take long to build and I am sure it would be fine to dismantle, move, and reconstruct. Size wise, okay for one cat but only as a temporary measure. Easy to clean, hammocks etc can be removed and cleaned.
Cons: These are the issues which really let this product down, some of them are actually quite big issues. Firstly, these are quite heavy packages and thus get quite a rough ride around the warehouse. On opening both my products, there were broken pieces of black plastic in the bottom of the cardboard box. These turned out to be from the underneath of the bottom trays which the whole cage sits on (see photos). The areas where the plastic has snapped off due to suffering impacts during storage/transit, the plastic tray is deformed. Also, the metal top lid on one cage was bent (see photos). In addition to the above, the clips which hold on the cloth on the shelves are made of cheese, they snapped of when my cat jumped up, resulting in the poor girl falling down because she had nothing to grip onto. As the shelves are slippery without the cloth covers, the shelves now have to be removed. Probably the biggest issue I have with this product is the caster wheels! They are ridiculous and here's why. They have a locking mechanism made out of metal, however, when it is in the unlock position the metal clasp is lower than the wheel (see photo) and so as you drag it along your precious expensive carpet, IT WILL DIG IN AND SNAG IT! I now have lines of pulled thread in our carpet thanks to the ridiculous untested design. I found in the end that the cage moves easier when the wheels are locked.
The manufacturer does offer replacement parts which I will be taking them up on, but it shouldn't be that way and I doubt they will replace our carpet?
Taking into consideration all the issues above, it's worth noting that this product is not cheap by any means, therefore I do not recommend you buy one.
