Amazon Basics 3-Tier Large Cat Playpen, Durable and Pliable cat Cage Box Crate Kennel, Black, 91 cm L x 56 cm W x 130 cm H

Picked up our 9 week kitten and little nervous about going out for a couple of hours or overnight and leaving him with no supervision as he's very active at the moment and likes wires. This cage is so spacious and great, as soon as you say cage people imagine this tiny thing and think you're cruel but this is not a "cage " more of an enclosure. It has different levels but my kitten was too nervous to get to the top one so i lowered the top one from how the picture was and he feels comfortable getting to it now but still chooses the middle shelf to sleep. Shut the doors at night around 11 after he'd gone crazy for a good hour and he seemed content till the morning. No meowing, just settles in. First night I kept feeling the need to check on him and sometimes he was asleep and then sometimes I'd look in and his eyes were open but seemed fine. He's got his food water and litter at the bottom and I notice the food has gone down in the morning so must be getting up and down. Second night didn't check in on him from like 11pm to 7am and when I opened the gates he made his way out and started purring. Same day he chose to take himself in there for his afternoon nap instead of our sofa or laps. Reassuring that he obviously doesn't mind it! Assembly wise I feel it would be pretty impossible by yourself, it's also ridiculously heavy. Good thing it has wheels because it's a breeze to move around. The instructions are a bit confusing but it's pretty sturdy once up. Very happy!

I managed to assemble this cage by myself, but it would have taken less time if I'd had someone helping me. This is not an easy task, even with good instruction being included. It took care because it was easy to catch one's fingers! (Luckily, I didn't).The cage is useful for one cat. I dare say two 'quiet' cats, or maybe a nursing mother with kittens. However, whilst it would house 3 full grown cats, I would never recommend using it as a permanent place to hold 3 cats. It just is not large enough for that, unless the door was permanently open for 3 cats to have freedom of movement. There's not enough room for 3 cats and a litter tray, with the doors closed. Cats move about!It is heavy to move but not impossible for anyone over 5 feet tall and reasonably strong. However, do move it in the box to its intended permanent location before unpacking it. This is a one-piece product, and not easy to move prior to assembly, for one person. I took it upstairs in the box. It would have been difficult to do so, whilst folded.As a cage, and a good quality cage at that, if you need a cage this size, I can highly recommend this particular model. If I needed another, I would buy this again.

We adopted another kitten into our multi-cat household and then found he had not only ringworm but ear mites too and needed prolonged isolation. Eeep! With no spare room we could shut him in, the soft sided puppy crate we first used to contain him just wasn't going to be suitable for weeks in quarantine.This cage, with added mosquito netting to stop him reaching out or the other cats reaching in, has helped keep him separate. Now he has lots of room to jump and climb and do all the normal things kittens need to do (like hanging upside down from the roof!), he seems very happy with his new, hopefully temporary, home.It was a bit fiddly assembling it - definitely a two person task! The top needs to be raised while the sides are unfolded and clipped into place. One very tall and very flexible person might just be able to do it alone, but most people will find a second person to help is essential - and maybe a few swear words, too! It's also heavy and not easy to move - the package weighed I think 16kg! But it's better quality than expected, and seems very sturdy when assembled.A couple of small minuses- it's very rattly and noisy when the kitten gets his nightly zoomies and goes on the rampage. And the shelves don't clip onto the shelf supports, so he can tip them up if he stands right at the edge of a shelf when he's jumping around. Some way to secure the shelves in place would be a big help.Overall though, definitely good value for the price.

I bought this for one of my cats to recover from surgery, I wish I had of thought of this years ago!!! Essential if you have a multi-pet household, it ensures that the patient cannot be disturbed giving them literally their own apartment with bathroom and scratching on the lower level, chilling on floor 1, dining on floor 2, bedroom on floor 3. The trays are designed in such a way that they can't tip if the pet jumps on the edge - very clever! It was great to be able to wheel it to an open doorway on a nice day so he could enjoy the weather too. I have a puppy who lunches on kitty litter and has no concept of personal space at mealtimes, so I can tell you how much of a difference this made in our home, stress levels reduced massively! We could have him in the main room all the time with all of us so he didn't feel excluded and giving lots of cuddles, while making sure he didn't escape the house while he still had stitches and the cone of shame! He has since had his stitches removed and is back to chasing butterflies in the garden :) It is quite simple (ingenious really!) to assemble, but you may need two people in the beginning. I saw a review here suggest laying it on its side when opening the first large section, and I can confirm that this is the best way to get started! The doors are nice and big so its easy to reach in with your pet in your arms, cleaning is also easy - you can get half your body through the opening to reach anywhere! The locks are secure, the whole cage is stable and manoeuvrable, and it can be packed flat for storage or travel. I can see this coming in really handy if we go on holiday, they can come with us! :)
