Review on Pop-Up Play Tunnel For Cats In Blue With Rainbow Design - Collapsible Cubes, Pack Of 1 by Kevin Stephan

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Collapsible means it collapses on your cat while he or she is in it

I'm sort of sorry I bought this. I did want something with cubes and tunnel connected and since it does that I am giving it 3 stars instead of one. But that is the only thing it has going for it.After struggling to put it together, because it did not have tabs, as indicated, only strings that tie to each other, the cheap nylon and cheap wire collapsed and became useless. I can't think of a single cat that would appreciate their fun tunnel collapsing on their head. I've seen my cat use the tunnel exactly 2 times since in the month or two since it arrived. And the tops collapsed both times and she didn't know what to do. I had to lift the top so she could see her way out. She is a 4 year old petite kitty, weights approx 7-9 lbs. She can definitely fit in the tunnel with room to spare. She's used the cubes a few times when we play measuring tape game but she is visibly nervous before getting in them. And she's a confident little kitty.I bought this the day after my I had to put my beloved disabled chihuahua to sleep. Grief is not a strong enough word to explain how I felt. But I knew Skeezix the kitty was also affected when Liza didn't come and I was not my normal self. So in my cloud I saw this and wanted a tube and cubes and I thought the bright colors might cheer me up and give Skeezix something fun now that is an only pet. Oh how wrong I was.In reality the colors are garish. And i have a very modest, small condo with slightly mismatched furniture. Not as bad a dorm or first apartment but definitely not decorated like a real grown up lives here. Even so, i've come to loathe the colors. If this goes with your decor, excluding a child's play room (and even that is pushing the limit), you may have some deep-seated issues and should seek treatment immediately. It looks like a clown pulled it out of his butt in a nightmarish circus act.This was most definitely not worth almost $30. I am definitely in the wrong business because based on the low quality materials used I'd bet it costs under $1 to make, maybe $2 at the most. Honestly I'm thinking about returning it because it's a piece of eyesore, useless junk that takes up to much real estate. I considered donating it to a animal shelter thinking little kittens might have fun in it but it would last a day, maybe 2 before it got ripped to shreds.

Pros
  • HDP
Cons
  • The tunnel may not be stable enough for cats to jump on or over
