Miss Meow-
Here's some links to places to buy cat trees, and plans for making them.

I am pretty handy around the house, making stuff. I just finished a 10 foot cornice for the curtain rod in our bedroom, I made a cedar shoe rack, and many scratching posts. But, when it comes to putting that carpet on a cat tree and not having it fray, I'm afraid I did'nt have the skill to make that happen. So, (I took all of that money I daved by making everything else around here, ha, ha and) I bought one.

The boys LOVE it! Ever since it got here over a year ago. Mr. Jones, I noticed had not been going up it in a long time, so I finally put him up there and it was a light bulb going on. Maybe Snowy told him he couldn't go up anymore or something, but then Mommy said he could. So everyday now he goes up and naps, and Snowy reaches up and hassles him.

Here's the pix

And Mr. Jones

My cats love their cat trees so much that they've torn off all the carpeting on one of the posts. I bought some blue nylon rope and repaired the one post. I also have a tower that I got for free. Someone in my building was throwing it out. Sunny loves to hide in it. Here's an older pic of all three of them on it.

Here's mine, Bo and Abby. This picture shows the top two things, below Abby is a tube, and below the tube is a square box with a hole. The whole thing is about 6 feet high. I have it right next to the window, they can look out and see the birds and squirrels.

That is a very nice 'tree', and I do mean tree. They look very contented with it.

I didn't know if you had pics of both of my cat trees, so here ya go...

I know some people use a small ladder and use a roll of thick sisal rope to wrap around the ladder and steps for the scratch part and then they take a large cardboard tube(if you go to a home improvement store, I believe it's the base they use to pour concrete pillars) and cut it in half or keep it whole, cover it in carpet and attach to either one of the steps or top of the ladder...and voila cat tree. So for that project all you'd need is a small ladder, a roll of sisal rope, 1 or more large cardboard tubes, carpet pieces, and patience! I can't find the website right now that has the instructions and pictures for what I'm describing, but when I find it, I'll post it.

honestly....that pic of bo and abby "sitting in a tree' is so precious....they look totally at peace!!! isnt that just wonderful to behold?
