Review on Black Fabric Kitty Cot - The Ultimate Cat Perch, Ranked as World's Best by Jamie Sanchez

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great idea, especially if you don't have a window sill.

My cat Bug weighs 14-15 pounds. all by myself (so I felt a suction cup up to 15lbs x 4 would work well). I live in a basement, so my only real window is my door, and I know there are no windows (previous apartments had large sliding glass doors). However, when I first installed it, the bottom suction cups didn't hold. and my cat was REALLY abandoned! I heard it happen from another room, walked in and only saw the bed hanging on the top suction cups (which stayed in place) on the door and the cat walking with "dignity". BUT! I later realized it must be because my friend (who was helping me with the installation as I am now disabled from an accident at work) was trying to angle the bed slightly down towards the door (like "cradle" and if she fell, then he will fall into the door, not throw it on the floor). *It* makes the cups slide. The bed MUST be flat and level as it will press the lower shells against the surface to keep them in place. This is a problem and it works great and is very durable! Anyway, we played around a bit and added two toilet seat screws that permanently attach the bottom pans to the PVC, which I think might be a good idea to add in future versions of this product. All in all a good product, my first concern was the suction cups flying off and c when spreading (which made me giggle a lot and got frustrated when I didn't see any reviews with stories like this before buying, which honestly is one of the reasons why I wanted to try this product) but when installed correctly it works great and the cat loves it! I know she missed watching TV and observing nature.
