Things to know before getting the IRIS Pet Wire 2-tier and 3-tier Cat Cages, Indoor
While few complained that the IRIS Pet Wire 2-tier and 3-tier Cat Cages for Indoor are slightly difficult to assemble, but most done it in less than 30mins. Those who complained were the ones having problem figuring out how to put the wire fasteners as there’s no clear instruction found in the manual. Fortunately, one existing customer is kind enough to post a video on Amazon review to show us how. Once you understood how to handle the fasteners, the rest are easy.
The IRIS Pet Wire 2-tier and 3-tier Cat Cages for Indoor is also not suitable for little kittens. They can slip through the slots and escape out of the cage. While this can be easily solved by just wrapping the cage with hardware cloth, but you might want to consider the additional cost involved.
Also, noise is created when the cats jump from level to level. To resolve this, someone has suggested placing a cut out “Hugger Mugger Tapas Basic Yoga Mat” in between the wire floor and the tray. The good thing is that it works.
