XL Cat House with Scratching Pad Winter Edition

The house is great and my cat wanted to get in it before I'd built it - which unfortunately took ages because the plastic screws do not fit together. After hurting my hands trying to force them to screw in, I ended up taping it together with parcel tape. I've bought these in the past without this problem, so I presume there's been an issue with the manufacturer of these screws. As it is, it's unfortunately not fit for purpose. I would buy in the future if this could be sorted.

The house looks good & my cat loves the scratching base but the assembly is impossible because of the badly made plastic ‘screws’ that hold the house together. Badly moulded, and not fit for purpose. Makes it quite an expensive flat scratching surface.

Good size. Very fiddly to put together and it worried me that it’s held together by little plastic poppers, I was constantly checking they hadn’t come off as I was concerned my cat would swallow them! Although my cat loved this toy it only lasted a week, he very quickly ripped it to shreds so I had to throw it away. Even though it was cheap it wasn’t worth the money or the mess! Just give your cat a cardboard box!!

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.

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.

It honestly took me longer to assemble this than it took the cats to demolish it. It looks nice, is a great idea, but not for cats like mine, they are just a pair of vandals and jumped onto to house from the top of their cat tree thus the roof totally buckled. For a well behaved sedate normal cat this would be great but for my two yobs it didn't work.

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.

Is it possible to install these fasteners without losing your mind??? Terrible, in the end I just glued them together. At least they weren't expensive 😅

Every other one of the "screws" was unusable. The roof tipped over after a few hours and now it's just a scratch pad. I wouldn't buy it again.

The idea is good, but the plastic accessories provided for fixing the cardboard are useless.
