Cat tree (sans cat!)


Here's the cat tree we got for Jason and Molly, no real interest in it yet except for a bit of claw-sharpening on the posts and both cats have tried out the "den" in the base, no gymnastics yet however!





I don't know why it looks a bit bendy on the right-hand side it's not really like that! It stands 125cm tall and matches the carpet in the spare room!

What a nice cat tree, and isn't that typical that they're acting fairly disinterested! Cats can be so weird. Leia has never used the scratching post part of hers nor the nice basket on the top; she will sit occasionally in the cradle... we could have given them a cardboard box and saved the money!

That's a lovely cat tree MrsH - of course it doesn't smell right just yet. Give it time and keep fingers crossed!

Re: Cat tree (sans cat!)


Now try naming it the dog tree and I bet you get interest.......nice though, sure they will both try for the same platform.

Very nice.
I got ours used and so you can imagine the offensive smells made sure they investigated it right away They rarely use it though, so I've gotten to the habit of throwing my clothes on it

That's a really nice cat tree, hopefully Jason and Molly will soon discover what they are missing out on!

Re: Cat tree (sans cat!)


It looks great, have you tried sprinkling cat nip on it ?

Kizzy and Pip still like theirs. They regularly sleep in the little beds. Pip usually has the slightly higher "Pip's Nest", but Kizzy sometimes likes to use it too. They scratch the rope legs but have never used the two storey "den" which is where I now put their toys.

Now that's a good idea! at the moment we keep putting some of their little toys on the platforms or poking out of the holes, one of them has at least jumped up and knocked their dragon back to earth but we weren't there to see it happen!
