Which is better for feral cats?

The PawHut. Its escape door, five doors and floor holes give a trapped cat a way out, and the asphalt roof keeps the interior dry. The Patiozen has no escape hatch.

Is the PawHut worth $66 more?

Which lasts longer outdoors?

The Patiozen's resin resists rot and moisture without upkeep. The PawHut's fir wood is sturdy but needs protection from wet ground; one buyer wished it had legs to lift it off the soil.

The PawHut measures 76" L x 39.25" W x 45.25" H and weighs 24 kg. The Patiozen is 4.34 ft high and 1.73 ft wide.

Which is easier to clean?
