Does anyone know if they can tip over if a squirrel sits on the edge of it?

I have not had the problem. Once you have added the soil and plants there reasly

I have 7 of these. If they are sitting properly on the deck rail and filled w/soil, they don't tip over. this is my second year with them and have never had it happen. :) Jan

I've had mine for 2 years now. I left it outside over the summer. It's heavy duty. Looks great. And shouldn't tip over with high winds or squirrels.

Not at all. They are quite heavy and solid on e they are filled w dirt and plants.

No, it won't tip. Filled with dirt and plants, it's solid and sits securely on the rail.

I guess it depends on the size of the squirrel. After filling the box with soil, that weight off-set the weight of the squirrels in my area. I have had no problems with the stability of the box

Probably, if you mount it to your house or another structure that they cannot climb up to the base of the pole. Mine is mounted to my deck, so the animals have easy access to it. Luckily, one the squirrels get to the feeder, they can't get a good grip on it and they fall off.

Yes. They don't make them like they used to. This model is definitely cheaper. If you hang it high and have squirrels and they knock it to the ground it'll probably sustain damage.

Yes, it should be heavy enough for a rat to not tip over. It's also quite low to the ground and the legs spread widely so it's quite steady. Hope this helps!

Not positive but I have mine fairly high up to prevent squirrels from jumping over it. I also heavily grease the pole below it.

Hi. No I don't think the cat could tip it over unless the cat was very big.

I believe they do. They're slippery enough to prevent a foothold. Only way might be if they can leap onto feeder from some place close. I have three and have never seen a squirrel on any of them and my neighborhood has lots of squirrels! Hope this helps.

No, that pole will not stop squirreled. You need to put a baffle on the pole.

Yes, I think squirrels could climb out on it. I don't know of anything that is squirrel proof! It is very sturdy. I really like it because you can position it in many directions.

The bottom of the item is designed to fit over a post to secure the globe. The bottom of the globe is not flat. However, it appears strong enough to push it down into a reasonably soft ground to help stablize it. We have squirrels that take a great delight in knocking it over from our deck railing. Maybe rabbits are not as mischievious and the ground might stabilize it enough. Good luck.

Never had a problem with tip over. I have two different units from them and neither was prone to tip over.

The cats cannot tip it over. First there are outriggers to stabilize the tower. Also the netting is on all sides so if it did tip the cat would still be enclosed. My cats love it. I put a cat tree in the tower that they can sit on.

On occasion the squirrels do tip the feeder enough that some seed falls to the ground.

It's SUPPOSED to be, but my squirrels hang on it, causing it to tilt sideways and then they scarf up all they can eat. And they are bottomless pits.

I cannot say for sure but I would assume so and if they can do the top they can do the sides. Plus a raccoon can tip it over.

I hang mine from a metal rod with a couple of bends in it and with one end of the rod inserted into the ground. Very simple and works well but not really squirrel proof.

I'm not sure if it would tip over if they aren't able to walk yet. We've gotten two of them for grandsons but they were already walking. Good luck.
