My cat loves it
My cat loves a scratching post and bought this as a treat for him, he goes hell for leather scratching it, absolutely loves it and is currently sleeping in his little house.

Both my cats love this house and opens both ends
Purchased two of these one as a present for a fiends cat and one for my two. My two love it and one loves to sleep in it as well. It is good that it opens both ends as if the second cat goes in the other one can get out easily. My grandson had no problem putting them together and they seem quite sturdy. My friends cat also liked hers and using the scratch bottom. Would buy again and recommend
Cats love it but the plastic connectors are rubbish.
My cats were excited watching me try to assemble it but their patience ran as thin as mine did with the fiddly plastic connectors that don't connect properly. The bottom ones are also located just far enough in that you can't use standard pliers on them to try to force the connection which added to the frustration.
For the price, I guess it's ok but I would have preferred to have paid a couple of quid more for connectors that do the job.

Worries about plastic connectors
It’s looks lovely. My cats have loved destroying it. However plastic connectors are used to build the product and they pop out easily, which I’ve not been happy about. I’ve had to keep a close eye on my cats with this product as while they have had fun destroying it they have also loved trying to eat the plastic connectors that have fallen out easily. I’m worried they could chock on or swallow them. Would be cautious about this product.
excellent

Great
Cute, nice size. My cats loved it 😊
amazing

Badly made!
I bought this for my anxious cat so he could hide when feeling scared. Putting it together is easy but the actual plastic pieces that keep it together are dreadful and don’t stay together. It had fell apart numerous times.

Refill needed
Awesome little house fits perfectly in a corner under the stairs giving our cats opportunity for a hide out. Refill pads are needed as it's extremaly wasteful to buy a whole new house each time. I would get a refill every time ordering food.

Really cute house, my kitten loves it. He hasn't mastered scratching the inside but is very happy to sit in it when he wants some peace and quite

Rubbish
The screws that come with this do not fit together.. totally waste of time and money!

Cats love this
All 4 of my cats love this, I will have to get more, they love the scratch card and playing in the box, plus a good size

Cat left me for this new house
My cat well and truly left home to live in this house. That's what it feels like! She is in it all the time. For a box that is so cheap, but well made for a box. I feel abandoned ! It's a star buy. Would definitely recommend. I'm getting another for my friend.

Coco loved it
I thought as she’s a big cat (Maine Coon) it would be too small and she would destroy it but no she loved it.
Cute but not fit for purpose
My cats loved it for the week it stayed up. The fasteners are not robust enough to survive the romping of a few boisterous cats.

Waste of money
Tired to build this and the screws were impossible to put together what a waste of money

Broken in a hour
Literally got this delivered a hour ago. It's broken already. I know its only cardboard but why stock something that's done within a hour?

Gorgeous Little House
I loved this house as did my two boys.Unfortunately they demolished it in no time.They started jumping on the roof when one was inside.Probably not ideal for boisterous cats like mine.I kept putting it together again but they soon flattened it.They just sat sadly around the flat box.However good news I just prop it up and they can still play in with flat roof

Cat House Demolished in minutes !
I loved this novelty house as did my two boys.They went in straight away too.I regret not taking photos.I went to the kitchen and five minutes later they had destroyed it by jumping on to the roof .I have put it together a few times but they keep jumping on the roof great fun but better for a quiet cat perhaps

What more could you want for the price?
Honestly – at this price, you really can’t go wrong. Sure, the house could be improved a bit. But hey, just wrap some parcel tape around it when the little screws stop holding. My cats love the house, even my Maine Coons, and even when the scratching cardboard is completely wrecked, they still love lying in it. No, for €5.99 without any extra discounts, there’s nothing to complain about. I’ve already ordered it several times.

Shame (size of the kennel and scratching post)
It's a shame that it's impossible to accept a scratching post as a replacement for the one that comes with the little house when it gets worn out. I preferred the smaller house for this reason, and also because it takes up less floor space.

My cats love it
Very durable. It sits on the balcony and protects my four-legged friends from the sun. They love lying in it and scratching around. Unfortunately, after almost 2 years, it broke, so now there's a new one.

Super
As mentioned in previous reviews, the plastic 'screws' come out quickly, but nothing that can't be fixed with a bit of tape. My cats love it! Excellent value for money!

Popular cat house with poor plastic feet
Swapped out the plastic tabs for a white cable tie instead, works like a charm.

Skoda of money. The plastic handles are poor quality and hard to hold, there's a risk of swallowing.

Not sustainable
Pretty poor plastic rivets that don't hold together. The house was broken after 2 days. Definitely cheap but "expensive" if the house doesn't last more than 24 hours.

Love at first sight
Once assembled (the fastening clips are a bit tricky to close), my cat—who usually takes months to get used to something new—went straight in and it instantly became his new favourite spot, even though he already had other similar options. I’d say it was truly love at first sight!

A great choice
Honestly, ever since I bought it, they haven’t stopped using it to play and scratch their claws. My three cats take turns spending the day there—sometimes two of them squeeze in together and play in their new little house 🐱.

My cat loves it and goes in there every day.
It's really great, especially for the price! I actually found it easy to assemble, and the snap buttons worked just fine.
And most importantly – my cat loves it!

Poor quality
It lasted only a few hours, the roof collapsed, and the plastic screws flew apart. Even during assembly, I didn't have much faith in it, but its durability still managed to surprise me—unfortunately, not in a positive way.

XL Home Cat House with Scratching Mat
The cat loves it, but unfortunately the mounting with those plastic 'screws' is terrible. If the cat jumps out of the house with a bit more force, the mounting gives way and the whole thing falls apart.

Waste of money
Total disaster. The house fell apart after just one day. It's really hard to put together. Those plastic screws are a joke. They don't fit at all and won't screw in. In the end, everything comes loose and the house tears apart. For this kind of money, the quality is zero. It's unstable. The free one I once got with pellet from Castbest was miles better and lasted for months.

Good value
My cat loved it and it lasted about 1.5 years! Pretty good for a paper toy. I'll buy it again.

Small house
As soon as I set it up, my Tessie took to it right away, scratching her claws on it and then lying down. No more random cardboard boxes lying around!
