What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The listed dimensions conflict: product details give 30L x 87.1W x 30H centimetres, while another details field gives 87.12 x 29.97 x 29.97 cm; confirm the selected listing's measurements if fit matters. The listing recommends small and medium breeds, despite promotional wording that says cats of all sizes, so suitability for larger cats is unconfirmed.
