July 23, 2021 By Joi

Too cute! This adorable cat perch and scratching post (Amazon link) is a real eye-catcher, isn’t it? I love the colors more than I can even tell you. Maybe it’s the westerns fanatic in me, but this is one of the cutest cat toys or pieces of cat furniture I’ve seen in a while.

  • The main stem of the cactus is made of green natural sisal rope with a cat-like hemp ball, which can attract cats’ attention, is resistant to scratching, and can withstand cat games. Prevent cat scratching and irreversible damage to furniture.

  • The scratching post is well integrated into the cactus and is ornamental. It adds a touch of green to your corners and also adds a fun place to your cat.
  • This product has a simple structure and is easy to assemble. Raise a cactus for your favorite cat! ps: Please keep the cat tree dry and pay attention to the fire source. The color in the photo may be slightly different from the actual product, please refer to the actual product. Before buying, please make sure that the product size is suitable for your pet. 
  • Product size: (20.5 x 17.3 x 17.1) / (52 x 44 x 43.5) cm (LxWxH) Packing size: (16.5 x 4.8 x 15.4)/(42x 12 x 39) cm (LxWxH) Weight: 7.1lb/3.2kg.

ADORABLE Scratching Post: I’d Love This Even if I Didn’t Have Cats!

May 29, 2021 By Joi

This Mushroom Cat Scratching Post is one of the most adorable ones I have ever seen… bar none!

The post size is 15×12 inches, making it big enough for cats and kittens to enjoy, yet compact enough to easily move around the house without taking up too much precious space.

After all, a cat has to have plenty of room for their toys, food, and other pieces of furniture!

This adorable scratching post is available in brown (shown here) or grey.

When you click through and take a closer look, you’ll get a kick out of the realistic grass. I’m not lying, while we have 5 cats who would get a huge kick out of this scratching post, I’d buy it simply for the cuteness of it, alone!

How cute would it be on a carport or patio… and if you have outside cats, too, like we do, all the better.

Furhaven Cat Tree…. Talk About the WOW Factor…

July 21, 2020 By Joi

As a cat mom and cat blogger, I’ve seen just about every cat tree and piece of cat furniture made – and I’ve loved a lot more of them than I could even begin to count.

However, I’m certain I’ve never loved one any more than this one.. it’s beautiful, engaging for cats, and have mercy, it IS what so many AREN’T… it is very, very affordable.

I’ve often wondered two things:

  1. Why do makers of cat furniture think all cat parents are rich?
  2. Why didn’t this cat parent get the memo?!

Hiding places, climbing and jumping opportunities, scratching posts, plush ball toys suspended on a spring rod, and another set of balls hanging on a string…. so many opportunities for fun and exercise for your cat. I always LOVE the thought of keeping cats’ minds entertained and keeping them from being bored – this cat tree is JUST the thing to counter boredom.

The scratching posts are wrapped in sisal fiber, which carries the rough, bark-like texture of a tree to better satisfy your cat’s instinctual need to scratch; the material is also highly durable for long-lasting, economical use.

Please click HERE or the picture above for a closer look and more information. I’m very excited about this one!

Beautiful “Fold and Move” Cat Tower and Cat Bed

November 23, 2019 By Joi

I love everything about this beautiful Fold and Move Cat Tower and Cat Bed. For one thing, the beautiful gray goes with any decor or color scheme (it also doesn’t show cat hair as much as darker colors). I LOVE that there is room for the cat to scratch and play (with dangling balls… something that always fascinates furry babies) and the hidden bed and comfy hammock on top make it simply irresistible – to cats and their parents!

I also love that it can be folded for easy moving and transporting – whether your cat is taking a vacation or simply moving his/her favorite bed to another room.

I’m also crazy about the fact that the cushion in the “bedroom” is removable and machine washable.

  • Ideal for small spaces
  • Simply fold shut for quick and easy storage
  • Condo and toy lying hammock wrapped in soft plush
  • Natural sisal scratching surface
  • Removable cushion insert that can be machine washed

See Fold and Move Cat Tower and Cat Bed for more information!

Plush Fabric-Lined Cat Condo…. Oooh La La

March 23, 2019 By Joi

The Trixie Fabric-Lined Cat Condo (pictured here) is a heckuva lot of fun just waiting for a lucky, pampered, and most of all loved cat to enjoy. Any good cat parent knows that keeping a cat entertained and engaged is good for her physically, mentally, and emotionally. Providing your cat with novel, new, and exciting opportunities keeps her on her toes… and adorable toes, at that.

I love everything about this cat condo – its great looks, reasonable price, and the many opportunities for a cat to explore and enjoy. She can even hide out inside and plan her sneak attack.

We all know how much cats love the sneak attack.

I also love that it’s compact and close to the ground, meaning that even the clumsiest cat will be perfectly safe from harm.

One of my cats, Alexa, fits this description perfectly. Even she couldn’t cause a disaster with this cat furniture.

When it comes to keeping things fun and exciting for indoor cats, we like to rotate cat toys, scratching posts, and even cat furniture. It makes each of their treasured possessions last longer but, more importantly, it keeps things fresh and new for them – something outside cats are awarded with, by God, on a daily basis.

We have to provide the fun and variety for inside babies.

Features:

  • Wrapped in soft plush inside and out
  • Condo lined in plush fabric
  • Natural sisal scratching surface
  • Dangling plush toys inside

Product Description:

The Topi Cat Condo will provide endless opportunities for your cats to play, scratch, explore or just relax. This stylish piece of cat furniture combines the best of both worlds: a condo hideaway and a scratching surface. Felines can sharpen their claws on the large scratching surface wrapped in durable sisal instead of on your furniture or carpet. If a nap or a place to hide is in order, the cat can crawl inside the kitty condo which is covered in plush fabric both inside and out, making it the perfect retreat. Feeling a little spunky? Taunt the plush toys suspended inside, sure to peak your little hunter’s interest. Suitable for cats of all ages and activity levels. One year warranty. Color: chocolate brown. Dimensions (inches): 18 x 12 x 13; condo opening 6 x 6. Weight: 3 pounds.

Well if this doesn’t look like hours of cat fun, I’m not sure what does! The Cat Scratching Post with Hanging Butterfly Toy is just the thing a house cat needs to stay active, engaged, and amused.

Cat Face Cat Lounge: Uncommonly Cute Cat Scratcher and “Recliner”

October 24, 2018 By Joi

Okay, how cute is this Cat Face Cat Lounge? Our cats are absolutely crazy about corrugated cardboard scratchers and cat furniture. Cats just automatically seem DRAWN to anything cardboard, don’t they?

I haven’t met a cat yet who didn’t think cardboard scratchers were the best thing going!

This two-piece cat lounge has a cat face bed that pulls away from the cat-shaped head (love, love, love the ears). If you have multiple cats, like we do, this gives everyone their own place to sit.

Cats don’t just love to scratch, they NEED to scratch. Scratching is an enjoyable, instinctual form of exercising for cats. It is also a pleasurable experience for your cat and keeps her nails in tip-top condition. It’s also healthy exercise for your cat’s muscles, relieves stress and allows them to mark their territory…. a very important part of being a cat!

While the main reason we frequently buy cat scratchers such as this is the fact that our cats get so much joy and fun out of them, I also love the fact that the best way to keep cats from scratching woodwork, doors, walls, and furniture is to give them something they not only CAN scratch… but are encouraged to do so. 

Features

  • Sleek design made of eco-friendly, recyclable corrugated cardboard. Cats love the feel of cardboard!
  • Jumbo and durable: This lounge can accommodate 4 cats playing together at the same time. Your cats will enjoy a comfy curved lounger and cozy hideaway cave all in one.
  • Serves double duty as both a cat scratcher and lounge. 
  • For those of your looking for something that will fit the decor of your house, the neutral tones and pleasing shape will suit your aesthetics.

See Cat Face Cat Lounge for a larger view as well as various other pictures and information.

We also feed and care for feral cats. Some honor us by following us home and allowing us to give them a forever home and to, more importantly, be their forever family.
