  Merry Pet MPS002 Wood Room with a View Pet House By: Merry Pet Average Rating: 4.5 Total Reviews: 12 More Information GREAT DOG HOUSE  On: 2010-07-04This is an awsome dog house. Fits all of my dogs very well. Very sturdy. Might buy another one to put in another room because they use the first one downstairs and would probably love another one upstairs. I got mine for 120$. What a deal! Love it! On: 2010-05-17Great product and well packaged. It took me about 20 minutes to set up and looks so cute! The only problem is that it does need some caulking between the seams if left outside. Overall, a great product! You can insulate this for free! On: 2010-04-30I bought this house for our old cat who (because of incontinence) has been moved outside. The wood on this is fairly light and there are plenty of gaps and small openings to let a breezy, cold draft in. I quickly realized that this house needed insulation. I thought of some solutions for a while, then stared down at the packaging. There are large pieces of Styrofoam which make great insulation. I traced a rough template of the four sides and top and bottom, scored it with a knife, then hot-glued it right on the interior. I then made little flaps on the entrance out of a very thin, old outdoor chair cushion. If youre going to insulate the house like I did, make sure you assemble the four sides and drop the bottom in first. My mistake was that I glued the Styrofoam on the four sides, then tried to drop the bottom in, but it wouldnt fit (I got creative and found a solution). In the end my cat loved it! He stayed in all night and didnt want to come out in the morning. Very cozy. The added bonus was that I picked this up at PetSmart on closeout for $49. Debbie, Sonoma,CA On: 2010-02-15I love this house! We purchased it for our feral cats. They love it too! It is very sturdy, attractive and easy to assemble. The description was very accurate. Our cats especially love the sun deck. I would recommend this for any pet lover! An 'OK' cat house-Needs modified for outdoor use  On: 2009-10-03I purchased this house for my indoor/outdoor cat for $80 from Petsmart. Ive been searching the internet for weeks for an affordable,quality cat house (to no avail). This was very easy to put together, took me about 15 minutes, although I omitted the lattice and steps (which seem useless for cats) and modified the front entrance. I took both sides of the steps and cut them to fit the front, gluing them one on top of the other across the bottom part of the entrance. Since this will be used during the winter, I wanted a smaller opening and something more protective from snow and rain. My 15 lb. cat eases in and out of it without any problem with the smaller opening. And yes, I did have to caulk it, it would have most definitely leaked, there were gaps between the wood. I caulked the top and sides, sealing every single seam. I also gave it a coating of waterproof stain (additional supplies cost $15). The wood is thin and its aromatic but not overwhelming. My cat seems to like it, taking to it quickly and it will keep him dry and warm, serving its purpose. Worth the price even on sale? Probably not, but with the modifications I made, I think it will work fine for my cats needs. My dogs love this lookout post! On: 2009-09-21I have had this pet house for four-and-a-half years and it is still going strong. It is great for relatively small dogs, Id say up to 15-20 lbs. I put a square dog bed with bolster sides on top to make it comfy, and my two chihuahuas, 7 lbs and 4 lbs, are usually up there together enjoying each others company. Theres plenty of room for both. They can both easily climb the steps and get into the bed. The house is next to the main front window in my house, and my dogs use the top deck as a lookout perch. It is absolutely their favorite place -- if Im looking for them in the house thats the first place I check. They watch the bikers, dog walkers, cats, etc. go by and bark at them. Great entertainment for them (even if a little loud for me.) Neither one of them likes to stay in the little room underneath (although sometimes the littlest one hides in it when she knows shes been bad), but it is perfect for storing dog toys. Just toss them through the large door and voila, everything is picked up. My dogs know where their toys are and readily go into the little room to get them. The house was easy to assemble and it is very sturdy. Its also lightweight, so its easy to move around if necessary. The stairs are worn now (mainly the top two), but thats to be expected after 4+ years of constant use, and the appearance of the steps isnt really objectionable. The wear merely represents how much use the steps get. I would absolutely recommend this pet house to a friend. It was a tad expensive, but it has proved to be the best purchase Ive ever made for my small dogs. just what I wanted On: 2009-06-21I read several reviews before I made this purchase. The fun part is the product suppose to be a dog house and so many of us use it for cat. Thats the same case to me. My cats are easy to accomodate. I only have to put a little cat nip inside to attract them to go in. The top deck just work wonderful to be the feeding space. I also like it to be all cedar that just work good for semi-outdoor situation so the bug dont craw in too much. The assembly is a breeze. I dont even need help from my husband but a Black and Decker electric screw driver only. I may get another one when winter comes so each of my cat have their own place. Great Product On: 2009-01-15I purchased this for my 2 small dogs for use indoors. I was really impressed by the packaging, nothing was broken during shipment because it was packed so tight. It was also really easy to assemble (although I did have some screws left over). My dogs LOVE it. Cat Loves It - Not Weatherproof  On: 2008-11-30Our outdoor cat loves this product. Placed a heated bed in it. The Petsafe Wellness Heated Bed (mini) is a perfect fit. This product is not weatherproof, and should be used on a covered porch. The top is wood slats with very small gaps, and water would leak right thru to the interior. I put the cats food on top, but not the water, as a spill would go right to his bed inside. Top is only removable if you do not use the screws and attach the top. very cute On: 2008-05-21this little house it is loved by my dog, she loves to sit on the top and look out for the rest of the pets i have, it looks very cute in my back yard too! :) 5-Star Room for My 5-Star Cats! On: 2007-07-15I bought this house 3 years ago. For the first two years of use, it was on my covered porch and exposed to alot of the elements and held up very well. (I stuffed it with clean straw for winter use.) Easy to assemble, though it does take about 30 mintues. It is also easy to keep clean. I would buy another in a flash - but dont have the room! My four cats love this house! For a while only my outside cat used it. It took him a week or two to get used to it, but then it became his favorite outside spot. Now that he is happy living inside, he shares the house with his two brothers and sister. Quite often there is one large cat sleeping on the bottom level, while one or two are on the balcony doing "guard duty" at the window! Every one who sees the house comments on the attractive and fun design, esp. the balcony. This house is worth the price! Its good On: 2006-07-17This is really cool but i dont like the color... i geuss i could paint it but that would be really hard.
