I love it! That sure is sweet! I think they will like it. Usually they like to go hide and do their thing so the closed up area shouldn't be a problem. I will tell you that dome litter box thing does not work! I have one and Big Stuff can't get in it! It's way too small for him. but that cabinet looks great.. can't wait to hear what the cat's think.. they will be the final judges on just how cool it is.. not sure Jenny will know what to do  |

I just looked at the picture again and for sure that cat coming out of the box is NOT a DLX or all those nice things folded and placed on top of it wouldn't still be there, they would be all over the place  |

Now that looks nice and tidy! I defiantly want to know if it works! We haven't installed our cat door that will lead to the box in the garage. Sure hope it works....for both of us |

Well, it showed up. It's one of those cheap Chinese particle board pieces of junk. You have to assemble it with cam-lock fasteners, and of course, I broke one doing it. It's setting in the garage now waiting for the glue to dry. It will only take a 16" X 18" liter box, and I don't even think that's half a cat...
On the plus side, Scooter has already been in it, helping with assembly.
So far, I wouldn't recommend it, it's super cheap & flimsy. Cheap looking too...

Oh, what a bummer!  Sorry to hear it's not what you expected.. but isn't that what usually happens, you get excited then you get dumped on  Maybe it will just turn into a place to curl up and take a nap in a cat bed inside..if Scooter already likes it, that's good, but what does Jenny think of it  I read the size and thought that it might be a bit small for a litter box but wasn't sure... Can you send it back? It might be cheaply made but I don't consider it cheap.. |

Ron says you should get this one... It comes with two levels. One for Scooter and one for Jenny Just have to modify the ends for separate entries. At least it's made of good quality materials that have will survive decades to come and it's not cheap www.amerantfurn.com/EE-208P.html |

Oh Yeah sure Jackie!! At that price I think I'll get several ;D It would be a shame to destroy a beautiful piece of Antique furniture like that.. But it sure would be a beautiful thing and no one would ever suspect it was a litter box  |

The room is set up (we did a massive remodel in the spare bedroom, all new furniture and rearranged everything) and the cat-poop-box is in place. We left one of the larger boxes they have been using next to it and will slowly ween them into the box. I just don't see it working, it's pretty small...
If it fails, I'm going to buy a folding screen to hide the regular litter box....

Jackie, really curious to see how your cat-door box works out. Post up some pics when you get it all set up. Sure wish we could do something like that, but our garage is over 110 degrees right now, so there's no way...

We're into multitasking and we would do that for sure to that piece!! We didn't put a closet in our new office. We bought a beautiful wardrobe and incorporated our fax and printer in it. Now instead of ugly closet doors there is a beautiful wardrobe that is very functional.  |

Very cool, Jackie! I especially like the arched opening on the inside of the house. What is that product? It reads "Kitchen" FWIW, per Nevada building codes, the wall between the garage and living area has to be a one hour minimum fire wall, so this would not meet code here, bummer... Looks like the kids are using it, you're off to a good start! |

That is so cool! Who ever came up with the idea .. con grads cause it is really a very cool idea.... The cat's are already digging it.. All you have to do is put in something new and they have to get in it and check it out.. cats and curiosity  |

Question for Dan... Did you put the cat litter box in the guest bedroom to keep people from staying too long?? Just saying... |
