My cats love this! It’s honestly pretty difficult to put together. I noticed the same feedback prior to purchasing and hired a handyman to tackle the job. He even commented the instructions were pretty much useless. He however was able to put it together. My 7 month old kittens love watching hummingbirds, yard parties, and neighborhood action from the safety of this cat house. I was able to even fit a small cat tree in it for extra enjoyment.
