I purchased this to make a catio for my cats so they could be outside, and enjoy fresh air and sunshine without me having to worry about the cat killing dog that lives on my street. It was easy to assemble. I'm a 67 year old woman, and I did this all by myself. The cats are safe now, and can go out side once again. I was so pleased with this product, i bought another one to attach to the current one, to extend their outside area. I am so pleased to have found your website. i have told my friends about this, and put it on my facebook page.
