Assembly




Start to build the frame of the cubes.
Reenforcement




Using zip ties, secure each point where two sides come together. Trim the zip ties to make sure your kitty doesn't get poked!
Doors


Using one side (or the adjustable shelf piece), zip tie one side to the other to make a hinge. This will act as a door hatch
Originally only had one top door but my cats would go into the far corner to avoid coming in, a second door solved this problem!
Using a binder clip secures the door "locked" incase your kitty discovers how to push the top open

Tips



Originally I made this multi level which looked super cool only to learn my cats preferred to roll around on the concrete patio and sniff the grass. I removed the vertical space and expanded it horizontal. That's the beauty of this design, it's completely customizable and changeable!
