Due to the economic crisis, I unexpectedly had to move in with a relative. Trouble for me, I have 3 cats, and only had one relative willing to accommodate them. However, this relative has very nice furniture. This product is keeping my cats from wearing out my welcome, as it prevents them from tearing up furniture by giving them a safe place to chill when I'm away and I'm not stressed about them spraying anywhere from the stress of the move, cuz they're relaxin in this unit on the shaded patio during the day. Not practical to keep food and litter in for 3 pets...since those two necessities should be much much farther apart than this unit allows, so it appears I will be ordering at least one more unit to give my fat cats some more space.
