Honestly it'd be substantially cheaper to make it yourself. The materials for my build were pretty cheap:

  • 3 cans of Krylon Fusion @ $12 each, $36
  • Water bottle, $6
  • Food bowl, $5
  • Carpet sample, free (ask your local carpet store for an out-of-production sample of commercial-grade carpet)
  • Baking racks, 2 @ $15 each, $30
  • Sterilite box, $10
  • LED drawer light: $1.50
  • Zip ties and velcro strips, $3 maybe? Harbor Freight for cheapness.

    The carrier itself would be the most expensive single part; the one I used is probably about 15 years old, but the modern version costs about $50 shipped. PetSmart has similar and cheaper versions available (here, $33 and here, $26). So if you bought a new carrier locally and didn't paint it, your total materials cost would be somewhere around $85. For me to ship it to you would probably be another $30 or so more, and that doesn't include any proposed costs for my labor time. If I were to put it all together it probably took me about 2-3 hours of labor with the single biggest expenditure being the cutting of the baking racks for the loft floor. Although this project took me about nine or ten days overall, most of that was waiting for the paint to set up.

    If you don't have a Dremel and cutting wheel you can probably get away with a strong pair of wire cutters (for the thinner wires) and a hacksaw or bolt cutter (for the thicker wires). The only other tools needed would be a rasp (to smooth out any burrs on the cut ends of the metal), a utility knife (for cutting the carpet to size), and a metal can (for making the hole in the litter pan; I used one that held canned chicken breast). If you buy a new carrier you won't have to paint it, which means you won't have to sweat out the mold release agent which means you won't need a torch. And technically you don't even need the metal can if you're capable of cutting a smooth hole (I'm not).
