Hey-brother Cat Tree with Litter Box Enclosure, Modern Cat Tower for Indoor Cats with Large Platform, Condo Food Station and 2 Hammocks, All-in-one Cat Furniture, Wood Rustic Gray MPJ115SG

Well thought out build, easily climbed by smallish cats (13lb and 5lb). The litter box can be accessed through the side entrance via a small archway cutout. The regular size litter box we wanted to put inside does fit, but the entrance is too high for the low archway opening. We also have a low step litter box that we keep around for our senior cat because it is easy to get in and out of. That fit with room to spare, so we also store some cans of wet food & baby food there, as well as extra deodorizer. Kitty used it right away (door off)For the money, I would have liked to see a bigger doorway to the litter box and I would have preferred Sherpa or rug to the chenille like fabric provided, as those are my cat’s preferences. I will apply some feliway to help dissipate the effect of the “new furniture” smell. But it does what I expected and fits where I needed it, so I am pleased with the value.So I read a lot of reviews and thought this would be a beast to put together. It was and it wasn’t. So it was fairly straightforward and simple, except the Allen wrench provided didn’t really want to hook in tightly so it repeatedly dropped to the floor, and the screws are super long so it was at times agonizingly slow until I got out my own toolbox (and later a drill). It CAN be done with the included tools, but not in a hurry. If you are handy and have things at home, it will be fairly simple, just realize it takes more time than you think. That being said, we had it together within 2 hours. It felt like days, but only because the Allen wrench progress was so tediously slow.The cats seem to love the setup. They have yet to eat out of the bowls but they use the litter box (I left the door off for now to help them get acclimated) and have climbed on it. Once it smells like home, I’m sure they will use it all the time. Or, you know, be a cat and totally ignore it on principle. Time will tell.

This is attractive and really pretty sturdy. The materials are heavy weight, the wood looks nice, the fabric is really soft, the screws are good quality. We swapped out the short adjustable black legs that came with it for taller furniture legs so it could be placed over a heat vent, which also made it about 5" taller. Our cats are largeish (8-10lb each) and they climbed all over it without it wobbling.That said, I agree with the reviewer who said this isn't the best for larger cats. If each level had been just an inch or two farther apart it would be perfect, but it is a little cramped for a cat over 11-12lb it's a tigher squeeze.BEWARE when putting it together: do NOT wait until step 17 to insert the door. You MUST add it in step 3. Once you get the litter box side screwed together, you are never going to get that door in without taking it apart again. So save yourself a whole lot of trouble and get that door put together (step 16) and inserted into the hinge spots (steps 17 & 18) BEFORE you get to step 4.The dimensions of the litter box area are 17" deep, 17" high, and 19 5/8" wide.UPDATES: We got this in preparation for adopting a new cat. New cat (last photo) has arrived and is kind of chonky at 12lb (she should be more like 10-11 according to our vet). She's doing ok with the litter box and food/water dishes, but everything would be easier if each level was 1-2" farther apart. I have been pondering disassembling it and swapping the house and platform sides around--I'd have to drill a couple extra holes but she'd have more room to get at the dishes.Second issue: the wood is slippery when they jump and down. Huge dilemma here, because I really like that it's not collecting cat hair. We're going to try getting some adhesive velcro strips and stick the fuzzy side only at the edges of the wood platforms for extra grip.

Super cute in my house! I love it!! I have the tidy cats litter box with the pellets and it’s a little snug in there but otherwise a perfect fit. It took forever to put together I recommend getting a power tool. The tool that came with also became dull halfway through set up. Luckily I had a spare.

Easy build. It only took a long time because the Allen wrench provided was starting to strip and it made it harder to screw in all the screws. Only complaint is that the little shelf under the food and water dishes just sit on top of metal posts instead of being screwed in like the rest of the pieces.Cute dishes! I wish the dishes provided were ceramic or stainless steel.3 month old kitten was able to jump to the dishes easily and has already enjoyed a few meals. I chose this because we have three dogs that have been sneakily eating her food. This way the food is out of their reach.Litter box from IKEA fit perfectly inside. She has yet to actually use it. Mainly because she isn’t used to the new location.The whole thing fit perfectly into a corner of the laundry room.Now I just have to get the kitten used to the new set up and location. She has been in our bathroom for two weeks, so I know it may take a while for her to fully use it the way it’s meant to be used.Great piece for the price! Exactly what I needed!

We ordered the XL cat tree. We have dogs and love the litter box hiding cabinet with secret entry. Our litter box is from Pet Smart and it fits perfectly inside, no issues. The materials are very sturdy, the cat baskets have thick metal framing. You just have to make sure you secure and tighten everything accordingly. Once bottom cabinet was assembled the rest went fairly quickly. The areas that are not fur covered can be slick and dangerous for smaller kittens but we plan to do our own customization to fix that til she’s bigger. Overall we love it and feel it’s sturdy unlike the reviews we read.
