We got our two new cat stands today... shame we will only use them for two months and sell them...(it's too expensive to ship back to the US)

Anyway, the cats love them of course... here are some pics:

WOW! I can only hope that my 14 Cats can not surf the Web , as they would be so angry that they dont have any Cat stands in thier home. My cats would love to have those stands to relax on.They would be even happier than they are now! But on disability , there is food and vet bills to deal with.

Wow. I think those are the most wonderful cat trees I've ever seen. It's a pity you cannot take them with you:(

Those are just incredible! I have one that is made of branches and shelves but nothing that extensive! Too bad you have to leave them behind but I understand the expense. It was too expensive for my husband to move most of his stuff here from Vancouver let alone overseas.

Those are incredibly cool cat trees. What about if you dismantled them, and shipped them the cheapest way? OR, do you know anyone that is moving to the US..and you could put them in there? They seem just too beautiful to leave. OR, can you return them? And, buy them again from the US???

Those are simply magnificent!

Shame you can't keep them, but I'm sure you'll enjoy the two months with them. :)

I can't returm them as i bought them in the US and shipped them here... shipping back would be more expensive than buying them again.

A woman by the name of Judy sells these stands and she is based near Chicago. She also goes to quite a few cat shows to sell her stands so you might be able to see them there. Her address is below.

those are cool! If my townhouse was a little bigger we would probably get one of those. Oh well, Jack and Ali will just have to deal w/ having a one tier cat stand.

I can't see them. Only the dreaded red "X". But maybe that's a good thing or Butter would be begging!!!! :p

Those are probably the most beautiful cat trees I have seen. I may have to investigate an early Christmas gift for the herd. If they are as tall as they seem, Binx can't put his big nose up there!

Those are really beautiful cat trees. I think this summer if I can save up enough extra money I want to get another for my cats.

Ours have just put in a request for one of those for Christmas, oh, and higher ceilings in the house to accommodate it! :)

Those sure are beautiful cat trees. :) I'm sorry you can't take them with you. My cats don't need any more cat trees because they have 3 large ones now. :)

a few more details for you...

The big one is 8 feet (2.5 meter) and the base is 2 feet 6 inches. The two with the pagoda are a little smaller at 6 feet 3 inches and the base is 2 feet.

The big one was custom made for our request and cost a bit over 600$, and the smaller ones were around 500$ each. The shipping and taxes to Israel cost moe than we paid for the stands and that's why we are just going to buy new ones there and not ship these back.

Efrat, when you get to the United States you may want to try ebay. This is where I bought my two cat trees and they weren't too expensive either. Here's a picture of them.

Wow.......those are expensive!!!

I'll be making Nakita one this summer, and I think this design is the best I have seen so far!

Wow, those are some fantastic cat trees!!! If T & P were younger, I know they would be soooo jealous! :)

Brookfield isn't too far from Naperville, so the new ones you buy you might be able to pick up yourself in a pick-up truck which would save on shipping costs again.

So Efrat, do you want Sara and I to start looking for a nice BIG house for you in Naperville? Seems you'll be needing it with the 4 kitties and all their "accessories." ;) :D

Ilan's parents are already taking care of this :D and we are thinking of getting more cats there after we settle in :)
