Kitty Cot Instructions

Thanks for buying a Kitty Cot. We think you and your cat(s) will have years of fun and enjoyment with our wonderful new cat perch system. It’s easy to use and setup. As you can see, our design is quite different from most other cat perches you’ve seen on the market. We use lightweight durable plastic pipe for the frame, tough waterproof fabric for the hammock and stainless steel support cables. The Kitty Cot is held in place using four giant patented suction cups, which are attached to the frame and the ends of the support cables, so you can put the Kitty Cot in a wide variety of places and not just above a windowsill like most other cat perches.

First things first:

Remove the 4 large wood toothpicks holding the suction cups to the frame.
Insert the two loose suction cups into the open-ends of the Kitty Cot frame.
Find the window you’re going to attach the Kitty Cot to.
Get out your window cleaner and clean that surface real well. Probably needs it huh?
Clean the cup side of the suction cups with window cleaner too.
Hold the Kitty Cot level with both hands and push it to the glass so the suction cups seat themselves.
With one hand holding the perch level, attach the suction cups on the cables to the window glass above the perch.
You might want to lay your cats’ favorite blanket on the perch. You’re done and it’s that easy!

Other things to think about:

Don’t attach the Kitty Cot to broken or cracked glass.
Don’t attach the Kitty Cot to single strength glass. Make sure the glass is double strength or better. Newer homes usually use insulated double pane glass, which works well.
The frame is made of lightweight PVC. Don’t put above a heater, near open flame, or in a super hot window location because this may deform the frame. Your cat may love the heat but be reasonable.
When you put the Kitty Cot on a window with a chair or couch in front of it, make sure it is well above head height when you sit down or you might hit your head on it… I’ve tried this and hit the back of my head… It hurts!
Don’t put the Kitty Cot so high up that you’ll fall attaching it or your cat gets hurt from trying to get up to it or down from it.
Never ever put a small child, big child or yourself in the Kitty Cot. If we made it for humans, we would have named it the “Kiddy Cot”. It’s for domestic cats not people!
If any of your other domestic pets like and want to use the Kitty Cot, they should be the size of a domestic cat only.
Don’t hang anything on the Kitty Cot except maybe a lightweight cat toy.
Don’t put candles on the Kitty Cot or expose it to flames or fire.
The Kitty Cot is designed for one or two average size domestic cats: not three and not ten.
Inspect the Kitty Cot often and make sure the suction cups are well secured.
Don’t put the Kitty Cot over sharp, breakable or expensive objects.
The Kitty Cot attaches with suction cups so it will attach on most smooth non-porous surfaces.
The Kitty Cot works outside too and is pretty much water and weather resistant.
You can wash the Kitty Cot in a bathtub or sink and even outside on the deck with a hose and scrub brush.
The Kitty Cot uses no glue in its assembly, so if you really want to disassemble it you can.
If the Kitty Cot frame shifts or twists after time, take it down and lay on a flat surface. Hold one side down and pull up on the opposite side corner until it lays flat.
Put your cat’s favorite blanket on the Kitty Cot to create a soft bed.
Hang a light cat toy from the top suction for fun.
Hang a Kitty Cot on all the windows of your house and give them away as gifts!
Thanks and enjoy!
