PRECISION PET PRODUCTS Extreme Outback Log Cabin Dog House - Large Size, Natural Wood Finish (7027013) | Weatherproof Outdoor Shelter for Dogs, Perfect for Backyards & Patios

I would actually give it 4.5 starts (5 with a better stain and heavier duty floor). We have two outside cats. Last winter my wife lost a lot of sleep putting hand warmers in a kitty carrier to help keep the momma cat warm. This year we have her and one of her kittens we kept. We needed a better shelter for the two kitties. So, we purchased the small extreme version together with the insulation package and related door for about $160.Pros:1. This was snap to assemble with a small pivot driver screwdriver. It took about 15 minutes.2. Insulation package fit perfectly and has removable flooring. It has a washable canvas cover and the floor is soft.3. Roomy enough for two full grown kitties to fit without straining the weight capacity of the house.3. Offset door which allows cats to cuddle away from the elements in the back section.4. Elevated floor to keep kitties dry.5. With door installed, the temperature can be maintained and they are more protected from rain/snow.Cons:1. Lightweight. May be easily damaged by a rambunctious dog.2. Wood floor is in three pieces and quite light. May be a problem for a 20 lb dog, but works great for two cats!3. One of the sides was not drilled for perfect fit, but is fine with the installed insulation package.4. Could have a better stain job. I resealed with a clear deck sealer to provide better weather protection as the stain matches my pergola and fence color perfectly.We also purchased a microwave pet bed warmer to provide an additional heat source other than the two cat’s body heat. The house, door, insulation package and bed warmer work well enough. The male (7 months old) took to it as soon as we put it outside. It took the momma (yes she is now fixed) a couple of days before she got comfortable using it. It does a good job in the rain with the door installed. We did not install the door until the cats got use to using the house.So far, the house seems to stay warm enough and dry enough for the kitties!Recommendation: Be sure to orient the door away from the direction you generally get the most rain. We get the most rain from the NE direction. Next is from the SW. So we oriented so the door faces W so the protected side of the house is on the S side and is less exposed to rain and wind.Hope this helps you kitty owners!Kaos
