- Is it suitable for winter?
- It blocks wind and rain but has no insulation. In freezing climates, add bedding and consider moving it to a sheltered spot or bringing cats indoors.
- How long does assembly take?
- Most owners report a few hours with two people. You need a screwdriver and a drill, and pre-drilling helps avoid splitting the wood.
- Can it hold more than one cat?
- Yes. The two levels and lower run give two or three cats room to spread out, though the upper house is the only fully enclosed sleeping area.
- Does the wood need treating?
- Yes. Apply a pet-safe sealant or stain before the first wet season and reapply yearly to prevent rot and warping.
- Can it be moved once built?
- It is heavy and not designed to be carried. Build it where it will stay, or move it in sections.
- Is the roof really waterproof?
- The asphalt-covered roof sheds rain, but water can still reach the wood at seams. Check the roof edges and reseal them if you see damp inside.
