Gorgeous Cat Activity Tower: Perfect for Homes with Multiple Cats!

July 21, 2021 By Joi

This is one of the best looking Cat Towers (or cat trees, whichever you prefer to call it) I’ve ever seen!

This is the MQ Multi-Layered Cat Tower (Amazon link) and it is large and interesting enough to hold any cat’s attention indefinitely. I love the multiple platforms and the hammock at the bottom so much. The fact that it has TWO different little kitty caves as I call them makes it extra nice.

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!

Dark Gray Multi-Platform Cat Tree: Great-Looking, Sturdy, AND Very Affordable

February 16, 2020 By Joi

While the dark gray Multi-Platform Cat Tree (Amazon link), pictured here, is ideal for cats with siblings, it’s also perfect for very busy cats who love to explore.

Keeping indoor cats entertained and maintaining their sense of fun and adventure is something I feel uncommonly passionate about. Outside cats have such variety – it’s as though no two days are quite the same for them… heck, often no two hours are the same. They have endless smells, sights, adventures – “finding fun” is not something they ever have to worry about and they seldom, if ever, get bored.

Our inside cats, however, have a much calmer world – and while it’s a much safer and more comfortable world, getting bored can be a very real danger. That’s why I love getting new, exciting cat toys (Amazon link) for them. While they have their favorite types of toys that I buy frequently throughout the year, my favorite thing to do is to find new toys with new sounds and sights they haven’t seen before. Their reactions are my favorite things ever!

The same is true for cat furniture. Our cats’ tree is just about ready to be replaced. They’ve done a real number on it! I can’t wait to introduce a fun new climbing, scratching, and hiding place for them to check out.

The beauty pictured here is a front-runner for me right now. I love the large platforms (perfect for stretching out and taking a nap on) and the dark gray color is perfection. I also love that scratching posts are involved. Our human furniture is especially thankful for this feature!

Features:

  • Multi-platform cat tree with scratching posts and enclosure
  • Tiered platforms provide space for your cat to relax, play, and climb
  • Helps keep your cat from damaging carpets, furniture, curtains, and more
  • Natural jute fiber scratching posts help keep nails healthy
  • Neutral color tones fit in with your home’s existing décor
  • Durable, long-lasting construction

See Multi-Platform Cat Tree (Amazon link) for more details.

Cat Tree Haven: Great Gift Idea that Might Save Your Christmas Tree

September 12, 2019 By Joi

One of our cats recently had kittens so, needless to say, we’re already thinking about how “interesting” Christmas will be this year. The gifts, bows, gift tags, ornaments, candy canes, and shiny decorations throughout the house are going to be fascinating enough for these little balls of energy, but I have a feeling the Christmas tree might prove to be a nightmare.

How do you keep a tree standing when three little toddlers with fur are intent on bringing it down?!

When I saw this amazing Cat Haven Condo on Amazon earlier, I was struck with an idea… diversion! I mean it often works for children who walk on two legs, why not children who walk… make that RUN… on four?!

  • Cat condo designed for cats up to 32 pounds in weight. Easy to assemble cat furniture, less than 15 minutes, no tools required.
  • Cat tree house intended for indoor use, fits great in any room.
  • Cat tower perfect for jumping, scratching, climbing, and relaxing.
  • Made from pressed wood, carpet and artificial leaves, great for cats’ innate instinct of hiding within nature. Made in USA and Imported.
  • Square base, 24 inches covered with artificial turf and 3 carpeted perches 22, 22 and 18 inches in diameter.

See Cat Haven Condo for a closer look (as well as adorable shots of cats enjoying their haven).

Beautiful and UNIQUE Cat Tree Your Cat(s) Will Love

September 3, 2019 By Joi

This may just be the most excited I’ve ever been to post about a cat tree. Sure, there have been (and are) a ton I love… but there’s just something about this particular one that is extra wonderful.

It’s so deliciously unique and handsome. Your cat will think, “Finally! A cat tree that’s worthy of me!”

This gorgeous Cat Tree from Vesper is extra good-looking, isn’t it? (And it is currently available at a HUGE discount on Amazon… I mean HUGE)

  • Elegant yet practical line of cat furniture that satisfies the daily activity needs of fussy felines
  • Cube cave with 2 platforms
  • Soft memory foam cushions
  • Great spot for your cat to play or rest
  • Base: 22.1 x 22.1 inches; Height 47.9 inches

Description from Amazon: Vesper V-Line cat furniture is the perfect convergence of innovative design, cat-friendly materials and meticulous workmanship. The result is an elegant yet practical line of cat furniture that satisfies the daily activity needs of fussy felines and the aesthetic tastes of cat lovers. Every stunning piece of furniture features varying combinations of cozy cubes, platforms and tunnels, as well as strategically placed scratching areas. The V-HIGH BASE is an eye catcher thanks to its height – it is an observation deck as well as a place to rest in one. It has tall and slim scratching poles that encourage extensive scratching. The cube cave with rear exit provides a cozy space for a nap.

I’m not sure which I love most, the gorgeous wood-look, the little hidden “cave,” the hanging toy, or the ample scratching opportunities.

I guess, truth be told, I love it like I do my cats – head to toe!

Tree Cat Condo… What Cat Wouldn’t Love This?!

April 30, 2018 By Joi

If you’re anything like THIS cat mom, you’re always on the lookout for things that’ll inspire, amuse, and entertain your cats – things that’ll rock their little worlds and blow their little minds. The cat tree condo, pictured above, would do all the above and then some.

As I said in a previous article, Tips for Keeping Your Indoor Cat Active and Entertained, boredom is one of the worst things for a cat. Indoor cats are more prone to boredom than outdoor cats, so it’s up to us to keep them on their tiny toes! Not only does it allow your cat to climb, it allows her to do her favorite thing in the world… hide and spy on her humans.

  • Cat condo designed for cats up to 32 pounds in weight. Easy to assemble cat furniture, less than 15 minutes, no tools required.
  • Cat tree house intended for indoor use, fits great in any room.
  • Cat tower perfect for jumping, scratching, climbing, and relaxing.
  • Made from pressed wood, carpet and artificial leaves, great for cats’ innate instinct of hiding within nature. Made in USA and Imported.
  • Square base, 24 inches covered with artificial turf and 2 carpeted perches of 22 and 18 inches in diameter.

Not only is this cat tree EXACTLY what your cat has been looking for all of her lives, it’s downright beautiful, isn’t it? It’d look great in any room of your house… especially with your adorable cat peeking out!

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.
