Cat Playhouse - Airplane

My cat, Raoul purchased this during a nocturnal shopping spree. We got him his own credit card with the hope that occasional nighttime internet shopping would entertain him while the rest of the household slept. This works out pretty well most of the time as he usually purchases small inexpensive items such as cans of tuna, bags of Pounce, and electronic dog whistles.

One night, however, he watched Amelia on Amazon Instant Video and he became extremely interested in flying. For a few weeks he would climb up on to a tall bookcase and spring, legs outstretched, usually on to the sleeping dog, but sometimes at any unsuspecting passerby. He must have eventually become bored with free flight because this Cat Airplane arrived one day. Raoul set upon assembling the cardboard pieces and although he was quite methodical, it was beyond his physical ability to complete the job. Of course, we assisted him; the propeller assembly being extremely difficult even for us with thumbs.

At last, the cat airplane was finished and the first thing we noticed is that the cockpit was rather a tight squeeze for a big fellah like Raoul. He was quite determined and was barely able to squeeze himself in, but he eventually did. Once in, he really looked fantastic! Purring like mad, he tried to find the controls, but there were none. Thinking that he had mistakenly purchased a glider, he requested that we lift the plane (with him still inside) up to his usual bookcase perch and then give him a shove. Needless to say, we refused!

It took lots of explaining on our part to convince Raoul that he had not purchased a real plane but merely a toy. He is quite disillusioned now. He mostly sleeps or sits and stares off into the far distance, a cat with shattered dreams.

Please don't let this happen to your cat!

Cool looking, but the interior is much too small and slippery. The cavity is small, slick, and sloped from the front of the plane to the tail and the tabs from wings and tail parts protrude into the already inadequate space. Not comfy looking at all; my cats won't have anything to do with it, and they LOVE cardboard boxes. It was maddening to assemble and takes up a lot of floor space (which would be fine if the interior was at all usable).

The photo alone is priceless, and so I just had to get this hilarious-looking cat toy--gave it as a present. I understand it took a bit to assemble it, but it was worth it--the cats love it and we humans love looking at them IN it! Can't go wrong with this darling playhouse for your mewer!

My cats don't want much to do with this airplane unfortunately but the three times they've been in it (in the six months we've owned it) it's been really cute for taking pictures. They don't really enjoy it though because it's a stiff cardboard. They like to rub their faces on it and that's about it.

It was also quite an effort to put together.

It was an okay purchase but I wish the hole for the cats was a little bigger so they would feel less nervous jumping in.
