Our Charley girl absolutely loves her new hangout spot. The assembly was really easy but it did not come with instructions - I ended up finding them on Amazon. The hammock is at the perfect height for a small window we have where Charley can look outside and nap. My only complaint is that she spends about 95% of her day in here and no longer sleeps with us! I may have to cut her off for a few hours per day to encourage exercise and play but she really loves it!
