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 composite cashmere platform combination of different heights and sizes is a place for cats to jump and play and stretch their bodies, and it is also a warm cat litter.
  • 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.

See Mushroom Cat Scratching Post 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.

Great Looking, Sturdy, and Affordable Scratching Post

November 12, 2012 By Joi

I’m not sure why, but I’ve always thought the sight of a cat going to town on a scratching post is impossibly cute. The look of determination they get just floors me.

When I come home from the store (or wherever I’ve ventured off to), Alexa is always so excited to see her “mommy” return that she runs to her nearest scratching post and releases her emotions. Naturally, I applaud her efforts, right before picking her up and kissing the face I love so much.

I can’t even begin to imagine coming home to a cat-less house!

The cat scratching post at the top of the page is the Ultimate Sisal Scratching Post from Wayfair. It’s every bit as nice, sturdy, and well made as some expensive posts, but priced much more within reach.

Product Description:

Cats need a scratching post that will allow them to get a full stretch. The 32″ post height allows the cat to stretch vertically while using the post (important for territorial marking purposes and for toning muscles). The finest materials and workmanship guarantee the scratching post will remain attractive and useful for years Features: -32 inch height allows cats to stretch fully and tone muscles. -Sturdy 16 inch by 16 inch base eliminates tipping and wobbling. -Fibrous and durable woven sisal naturally inspires scratching. -Superior to carpeted posts that may snag nails. -Assembles with two included screws. -Attractive and neutrally toned. -Assembly required. -Overall dimensions: 32″ H x 16″ W x 16″ D.

We have inside and outside cats and we love them all like family. The beauty, above, is MinJee and she is as sweet as she is gorgeous.

If the spoiled inside crew would allow it, needless to say they’d ALL be inside. As it is, our outside cats have their own custom-built wooden homes and penthouses and, yes, they are all equipped with heating pads for the cold months.

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.
