LOL Lottie, I didnt really need one either, but really, really wanted one too  ;)

Yes, it was Zooplus - someone posted a link to it on catchat and as soon as I saw it I new I had to have it - the fact that it was reduced in price helped seal the deal for me  :innocent: It was all very easy to put together - apart from one particular bit, and that caused quite a lot of  :censored: words  :naughty:

There's a Zooplus link at the bottom of every Purrs page, if you go through that link as a new customer you'll get 10% off your order plus they donate 5% of the order total to Purrs  :)

Will measure tomorrow and let you know  ;) quite small though, big enough for 1 medium size persian - or probably 2 or 3 knowing the way my lot like to see how many persians can you fit into a particular space LOL!  :evillaugh:

Just about to order one and some Almo nature .

I love the way your cats all cuddle together -mine just don't !
They all get on but they never cuddle up -they will sleep within a foot of each other and thats it -Smartie slept on my shoulder all night last night , so woke up with stiff neck and headache , but i wouldn''t have moved him -its so lovely to have a fluffy bum tucked into your shoulder !!! Who needs a scarf  :rofl:

Thanks Helen -should have seen that !

Mine have always cuddled up together, mind you I had my original 4 persians as kittens and they have always been fairly close, but even my mogs cuddle up with the persians - but NOT with each other!

Have fun putting it together!  ;)

It was the floor of the balcony bit - on the underside it had 2 bits of wooden batten which should have slotted (easily!) onto the side of the house bit - however, the battens had been fixed too close together which meant it didnt slot easily at all  >:( I had the brilliant idea of unscrewing one of the battens and moving it - undid all the screws, only to find it was flippin well glued in place too  >:( so ended up having to shave bits off the wood with whatever implements I could find, surprised I didnt slice my fingers off lol!  :shocked:

Well my little house turned up yesterday , also with a thankyou gift of 2 tins of a catfood  i think is called coma ? -Opened the Tuna for Winston as he usually likes fishy ones and he just walked away after sniffing it , no-one else wanted it either ! I left it down all night ,but it wasn''t touched this morning , so in the bin it went !!!

I also ordered some Almo Nature cat food, but thats not arrived yet .

Now, i have to find time to put this together !

Actually had to ring zooplus today as i still haven''t recieved the Almo nature cat food i ordered .
I was not happy with the girl i spoke to - she kept saying "but you signed for 2 parcels and its been sent !"
I tried to explain that yes, i had signed for 2 parcels , one that only had the thankyou tins in and then the other was the cat house .
She then said as i had signed for them there was nothing she could do !!??

I said the cat house was on its own in a proper sealed box with tape round it -where was the cat food ?
She then kept insisting i check with a neighbour ????

Why , i said would they give me one parcel and then take the other all the way round to a neighbour , so they could bring it back to me ???
She got very stroppy and kept telling me, that as i has signed for it they couldn''t do anything ! (there was 12 pouches thats gone missing somewhere , i am thinking there were 2 parcels in the van yesterday and he didn''t realise and only gave me one )

Anyway , with that , i ask to speak to a manager -she said they are busy -so i said , i don''t care how busy they are , i have 5 starving cats here  :rofl:
Anyway, she left me on hold and then came back 5 mins later and said -just this once we will send out replacements !

I have no idea where the food is , all i know is i didn''t recieve it , but i am sure they didn''t believe me .

I was not happy with her attitude and had to stay calm although i was pretty angry with her  :censored:

Its put me off ordering again now !
