YITAHOME 2 Tier Large Indoor Cat Cage Crate, DIY Pet Playpen with Detachable Metal Wire, Kitten Kennel Condo with Ladder for Small Animals - Puppy Rabbit Bunny Squirrel, Black

Easy to put together, the only thing that got me was the clamps that hold the gates down. They were hard to figure out for me because I’m not a builder. I did figure it out. USE THE TIES!!! It’s sturdy. I did place the floor upside down (🤣) I didn’t notice until the project was completed and I wasn’t going to take it all down! It’s nice for large cats BUT make sure you place a small litter box in the more open space to give them room. Now, the locks won’t completely close the gates just take note of it. But, so far Storm loves it, but he doesn’t know it’s for him to be in while we are away but I do recommend you allow them to get familiar with the kennel before just full blown locking the door on the first use. I also would recommend using a floor mat where the litter box is because the floor isn’t 💯 completely closed, it will be a mess underneath.

I purchased this for a cat that passed the day that I received it :(. I gave it to my daughter who has an old "misbehaving" cat (but we still love her!...yes both the cat & daughter!). Her cat loves that she now has her own dedicated litter box/water/food. My daughter leaves the top open and everything else closed, so the cat guards her territory (there are 2 other cats in the house). This means that she is no longer having "accidents" around the house, win-win! I love that this is completely modular, I can put a "door" anywhere I want. It relies on zip ties for its integrity. I could buy 2 kits and expand in any direction, much like Leggo! If I don't like the layout, just snip the zip ties and reorganize. Once zip tied together it is very sturdy. After I originally assembled it I put it in the back of my pickup, secured only by a bungee cord, and drove 45 minutes to her house. I walked it in through a 36" doorway and it was ready to go!

Love the run around room and view this provides for my newly rescued kitten, but a couple pointers: 1) Major flaw (imo): the floor panels are made of a thick plastic sheet! Yes I said plastic! Any cat worth their salt could shred those before breakfast. Even if they didn't, I feel over time the plastic would get too stretchy and be subject to getting holes and tears. I liked the cage enough to look for a way to overcome that, and found a perfect (and not too expensive) solution: 13x13 ceramic floor tiles. They have to be that size, anything smaller would bite into the plastic. They run about $1.50 each and you need 9, found at most Lowe's or Home Depots. You can see in the cage pic that I have one in place where Gabriel is eating. I have now covered every floor panel with a tile, they sit perfectly in place. I actually cut pieces of a non slip rug pad and placed them in first, then put the tiles on top of that, but that additional bit of work isn't necessary. If you wanted to, though, your length and width would be 27.5" and half of that of course (to configure for the partial floors) would be 13.75". You'd cut a 27.5"x27.5" square for the bottom floor (with a slit for the center pole), and two "L" shaped pieces for the 2 partial floors. Again, this was something I decided to do that is a bit over and above. The tiles provide all the protection and sturdiness you need. Plus you can remove them for cleaning when needed. 2) It was kinda fun to build, but keep an eye on your doors: in retrospect, I suggest tethering them to their adjacent panel while building, to keep them aligned. After I was done, I saw that they weren't flush (see pic). It would take tearing down to fix that. Not willing! Just have to be sure they are snugly secured. 3) The little clasps provided don't really secure the doors well; partly because mine weren't flush, but even so, they allow for more wiggle room than you'd want -- the doors can be pushed against, causing a gap that a paw or maybe even head (if they're intent enough) could be pushed through and possibly caught. Worst case, a smaller cat could possibly squeeze out. I tried several clasps and ended up with velcro strip ties, which keep all the doors snugly closed. Of course, a cat could chew on those too.....so you have to figure out a way to secure the doors well for your particular pet. Might take 2 or 3 clasps per door. And you can join the doors together to make one long door....but I like being able to open up one level at a time...while he's on level 3, I can grab the litter box from level 1. 4) I'm not sure the ladders are necessary -- depends on your cat's age maybe, but 13 week old Gabriel ignored them and simply jumped from floor to floor with ease. I took them out, they used up space for no reason. 5) The hammock just got in his way and he never climbed into it, I took it out. That is a cat by cat choice I'm sure. 6) Overall I'm pleased with the condo and the extra room it gives him, but I will say it's not as sturdy as your standard kennel....thinner metal. It is also obviously not going to be convenient to put up and tear down for repeated use (such as we need in our rescue work). But, we do love God's little creatures don't we, and this extra effort felt worth it. It makes me happy to see him run up and down, getting a better view and better exercise. 7) Last suggestion: get those carpet sliders for moving furniture around, and put one under each foot. This makes it so easy to push around whenever you need to move it, without another person helping you carry it. I'm just leaving them in place.

So it doesn't fit a cat comfortably at all. Our lil guy is 1 yr old and we had originally gotten it for him, since he had become ill and needed to be crated. However it stated it was for cats and shown how it fit a cat litter box and was two stories. No, it was great disappointment. Standard small litter box didn't fit. When I put my cat in there he cried and was soo scared. I was able to make a L shape out of the cage thinking that would make it bigger but no. The company was awesome at fixing the situation since it was no good for me and did refund me for product and told me to donate the product. I just wanted to make sure people knew the actual description though of the cage so you didnt make the same mistake. Because i waited for this cage a while to get and than once i got it was bummed it didnt work and could of gotten something elsewhere. Could it work for a kitten? Yes probably a tiny baby one, but once it got past a certain point it would be to big for this cage. So I'm just pointing out if your needing it for a larger animal this won't work, good for tiny kitten or rabbit. Cage itself is sturdy and they give you zip ties as well and super easy to assemble. That's way I'm marking it 3* and also good customer service.

Great product but missing pieces including the waterproof pad and an unresponsive seller. I emailed them (as advised on their packing slip) on April 14th and still have not heard back as of 5/4.

Love this catio and so does my kittens. It was very easy to assemble. Its pretty sturdy and easy to clean. Size is perfect and it looks nice.

The directions weren’t very clear so a little hard to construct & not sturdy enough for large cats but I foster kittens for a rescue & it’s perfect

My kittens are 4 months and I still crate them at night. They love it. They nap in it during the day sometimes. It came with one hammock. Con is it took me over 3 hours to assemble. The size is perfect for 2 very young kittens. It is stable and has multiple doors. It is not too heavy either so I move it to vaccuum around the crate.

We used this to move our kitty across Canada .. twice! Works well, was large enough for her to move around in the cage and have a small litter box! She is a medium sized cat and seemed pretty content with it!
