Our town has a lot of feral cats and one made her way to our backyard. I started feeding her and though we have a completely fenced in backyard I wanted somewhere safe for her to sleep at night so I ordered this. My husband I and put it together. I would suggest that this be a two person job to make sure things go more smoothly. The material is very light weight and it will be interesting to see how long this holds up but it is very attractive and our new baby seems to like it. She goes in at night with no trouble and I let her out during the day. I also bought her a heated house to go in this as well for winter months. The bottom has a removal shelf that I’m hoping this house will sit nicely in. I can stand up in this and I’m 5’6.
