Tangkula Outdoor Cat House Wooden, 2-Story Outside Cat Shelter Condo Enclosure with Escape Door, Asphalt Roof, Balcony, Jumping Platform, Weatherproof

It's neat. I did modify it a bit. I put a hole in the side so I could put in a large bed warmer for winter months and I put hinges on the top section of the roof so I can lift it up to clean and not have to unscrew and remove the roof section. My cats lounge in the lower section on cold nights snoozing on the warm pad and move to the second floor when it's warmer.

This feral cat house was too cute to not purchase.The assembly directions were easy to follow.We reinforced with glue.It should probably be weather coated.It is two separate "rooms", one on top of the other.Is it sturdy? Reasonably.I would not chance moving it around a lot, but it's solid.I wish you could access each room without blindly putting your hand in. I also wish there was an option for an opening between top and bottom rooms.The top you can just take off.I had a home made one last year.When I went to clean it out after the winter, I just dumped it, not knowing there a moma cat and 3 newborn kittens inside.One survived, but I felt bad.

I'm single so it took about an hour to put together on my own. It is put held together with included screws, but you definitely need a power drill since you are screwing into plain wood, with no receiving holes. There are no guides on the receiving piece of wood, so you basically have to eyeball it from the pictorial directions. I split one of the pieces screwing into it (a roof rail) but you can't really see it, and the roof still stayed together.I am hoping that the feral cats who seek shelter on my porch will use it during bad weather.

Smaller than expected

Two of us assembled it rather quickly. It is heavy, so build it in place where you want it because moving it after will be a pain.One modification that I plan on doing in the spring: adding hinges to the roof section that is over the "hideout". There's no easy way to reach in there to get an animal out because of the porch fence. Being able to lift the roof like a toy box lid would be a great change to the design.Also, if you live where it gets really cold, besides adding bedding, look at using an old moving blanket as insulation on the walls and lightweight vinyl curtain to the doorways to help keep your "guests" warm.

I have an outdoor cat that can't be inside cuz she won't use a litter box. Had a smaller house for her and she stopped using it after a while due to size. She has used this one all winter and loves it. Also put a self eating pad in there for her and a couple of my old shirts in there for scent. My neighbors think she's spoiled.

I really loved this product, it was so easy to assemble with the easy to understand instructions! My cat absolutely loves this tiny house and sleeps in there regularly. Overall, it was a great addition to my home and my cat loves it!

The wood is so flimsy that it cracks and splinters easily. The instructions are horrible. It's just a few pages of bad illustrations. The holes are not started or marked so you have to wing it and line everything up yourself. The roof is very difficult and doesn't exactly line up and there's no room for forgiveness. On the steps, the screw hole is so close to the wall that you can hardly turn the screwdriver. I so regret buying this but there's no way to fit it all back in the tight fitting box it came in.
