If you really want a cat tree that actually looks like a real tree (or is even made from a real tree) then you may have already considered a custom design. While I did feature one custom design on this list, there’s a reason I didn’t add more. Finally, our testers observed how their cats interacted with the tree over a two-week period. They noted any wear-and-tear, while also recording which features of the tree their cats used and didn't use. Our Whisker Cat Tower is still as indestructible and unchanged as when we first set it up several months ago. It's hard to imagine a more durable alternative. The only real downside is the assembly, which requires a Phillips screwdriver, hammer, and an electric drill with two different drill bit sizes. While the results were worth it, we did spend nearly two frustrating hours getting it together.

Last one because I couldn’t resist – this stunning-in-white Go Pet Club Tree House. I’ve obviously showcased plenty of their products already, but if the Go Pet Club aesthetic is up your alley like it is mine, you might want to take a look around at the other options they have and choose the one you really like from the batch. There’s this white, covered-in-leaves option that looks like a taller version of this particular cat tree, and this circular, narrow leaf-covered cat treethat’s too cute for words and probably should have made it to my narrow cat trees for small apartments list. Okay, enough out of me. You get the picture, I love all the Go Pet Club cat trees. I’m done. Height and Dimensions: 15.7”L x 9.4”W x 94”H with adjustable height between 95-108 inches, with each platform measuring 17.3 x 9.4 inches. If you’re willing to give up a little realism and stretch your imagination a bit, I actually like this one better than the On2Pets tree above.The two higher platforms are about the same size—big enough for King Henry to max out. We also build out a tiny little ledge around the highest platform to coordinate with the base. We like that this cat tree has a detachable cat bowl - so when your favourite feline doesn’t want to come down, they can enjoy their meals up high. You can also choose the best colour for your home and cat, as this freestanding cat tree comes in smoky grey or light grey. Pros Here at https://cattree.uk we strongly suggest investing in a large indoor cat tree for your cat to rest and play. The great thing about large indoor cat trees is that as there are so many different models available to the public, it is very easy to find a large indoor cat tree to suits your needs and fit in with your homes décor.

While the ease with which you can change out one or every branch on the Modern Cat Tree is one of its coolest features, it also means that active play will sometimes shake a branch or two loose. While never a major annoyance, we did begin to anticipate needing to reinstall a branch or two whenever our test cats got the zoomies, or pounced on each other through some leaves. But this small cat tree isn’t all cutesy style- it’s also got a functional and unique design that allows you to switch between a focus on scratching or lounging. You can actually unscrew the flower portion and add an extra joint to angle the flower to the side. This puts the sisal scratching pad at the perfect angle for scratching as the majority of cats prefer vertical options. Weight Capacity: While the exact weight capacity isn’t specified, it’s designed to comfortably and safely accommodate both small and large breeds.

We also like the included memory foam pads, which attach to the top and bottom platforms with strips of hook-and-loop tape. These pads are cozy and conform well to your cat's body, plus you can remove them for washing or spot cleaning. Unfortunately, the pads are not machine washable. There's also a removable sisal scratch pad and a dangling rope with three rattan toys. Another appreciable feature is that all of these accessories are easily replaceable, with Catit selling separate plush pads, rattan ball toys, scratchy sisal pads, and even replacement seagrass-wrapped posts. My second favourite option is yet another Go Pet Club Cat Tree, though this time for completely different reasons from the first. Avery is an enormous fan of jumping, and really seems to prefer getting his exercise through this route rather than running or any other type of exercise. Something like this particular Go Pet Club Tree House would in my opinion strike his fancy way more than others, since there are ever so many platforms along both sides for him to leap onto. Over the years, I have had a few readers reach out to let me know they used this tutorial to make a tree for their kitties. They graciously allowed me to share them to help inspire you all to create your own! Bryan’s tree… What I Love About It:The ability to go from scratching post to cat bed makes this one of the more unique cat trees on the market. I love that you can adjust the style based on what your cat seems to prefer! We also added Liquid Nailson the bottom of each branch before screwing them on. Next, we built out and finished thebase. We built a raised edge all the way around using 1″ x 3″ pine pieces cut to length.
