I left a review for this house kennel several months ago and Wayfair sent me a notification asking for a new one so I figured I would post photos of day 1 vs 8 months later. This house has held up great and we use this outdoors all day and night for a feral cat that we like to give shelter to, especially in the winter. We lined it with foam ourselves to insulate during winters. This house kennel has been perfect for keeping a cat protected from the elements and safe from predators while sleeping. We removed the metal gate to allow free access in and out at all times. This took less than 45 minutes to assemble and is surprisingly heavy.
