Outside text for your indoor pet. This tent is a 2 piece setup and is very spacious for your pet. It comes with a traveling bag that makes it easy for storage. One issue, it is difficult to put back in the bag, I had to log onto Amazon and watch the videos the vendor had uploaded

Our cat is always very curious about the outside. She is an indoor cat. We do allow her to sometimes go onto the back patio when we are there. We have to watch her like a hawk though because we don't want he roaming away from the patio. We do have hawks around the woods in our backyard. A few months ago, our cat was in the upstairs window when a hawk swept down to the window before realizing that she was inside the house and veered away. We have seen coyotes in our back woods, racoons, and foxes. We don't want her to get away, because it isn't safe. We do want to let her see the outside on occasion though. This cat tent allows us to put her outside with us. It allows us a little freedom to not watch her continually (think children's playpen). And it provides some protection against the wilds in the woods behind us.The tent is good quality. My wife didn't have too much difficulty putting it together. We like that it has both a larger playpen and a smaller one. The smaller one can be used when you need a smaller space or for a litter box. It also allows her more room to move around.Our only complaint is that the tent was a little bent when we received it. I had to bend it into the correct shape. This might be because it is difficult to get it back into the carrying tote, which is a little small for the folded-up tent. A slightly larger tent would keep the tent from forming incorrectly and make tear-down easier.**Update**I've lowered the score for the tent. The first time we went to use the tent in a real-world situation (not testing for a few minutes), our cat clawed her way out of the tent. We have started setting up for a garage sale. We knew that the door to the house would be open as we took boxes out. We thought that this would be a good time to real-world test the tent, so we put her inside and went to work. She clawed her way out in around five minutes. She easily pulled the mesh away from the solid tent material. The problem is that the mesh for this tent is not very durable and not solidly connected to the rest of the tent.I did not fully lower my rating because I think that it may still work with small dogs, but I do not recommend for use with cats. Our cat does not have a problem with clawing up the house. But she did not want to be inside of the tent, and she was clearly looking for weak spots, which she found rather quickly.We like the idea of the tent, but these may just not be practical with cats.
