    It's called a what?

    I went to our local Lowes today and thought while there, I'd look for something to replace Amy recliner that she would feel safe and secure in and wouldn't have to fear falling from. The recliner is a eye sore because of keeping it coverd to keep the cat hair off of it and nobody but Amy ever uses it.

    I looked at the kitchen/bathroom cabinets and there were some good possiabilities with modifications made to them. They would need finishing also.

    Then I decided to look in the already done stuff that comes in boxes that you put together yourself. They had 2 of these put together, one stacked on top of the other so I looked and looked to see how much they were. WOW! Those things were normally $75! ON SALE for $29.99! I KNEW it was exactly what I was looking for so I got it and brought it home. About a hour later, my girls have their own little corner and it's PERFECT! It was something for a closet.. I call it a "Kitty Corner"!

    Put together and in place empty


    Done with the cat beds...


    Amy and Giz has checked out the beds and Samantha has been on the very top checking out the view.

    LOWE'S $29.99!

    kb2yjx- It is 42 inches high and 22 /12 by 22 1/2 inches. The shelf inside you can move to whatever height you want.

    LOL! I had a man check the price on the computer to make sure it was REALLY on sale and while he looked it up, I told him what it was for and told him I thought it was PERFECT.... but the price made it twice as PERFECT! I was ready to pay that $75 for it and not bat a eye because it was so prefect!

    It is suppose to attach to the wall but I didn't attach it, it is real sturdy and being in the corner helps keep it from moving at all when one would jump on it. If I'd stacked 2 of them, I would defiantly attach them to the wall but I didn't need 2 of them..

    That is a seriously cool idea!!!!! I would have never thought of using a stand from Lowes as a kitty condo. WTG!

    Laura, you've come up with another wonderful idea for cats. It looks great and I'm sure that they'll all enjoy it for years to come. One question I have though. How long do you think it'll take before one of them knocks the angel down or completely off of the top of the new kitty condo? Mine would knock it off within minutes.

    Samantha has already been up there. That is why the angel is shoved so far back. Samantha likes places like that and I know eventually, Giz will get up there and check it out. If there is nothing for her to bat around, she will loose interest fast.

    I WILL move it before I leave for work...

    I want to buy one for the Fur Posse but when I thought about it, I remembered that they have 3 cat condos and they only sleep on the top part. The other two compartments never get used so I don't know if this would work for them. It's a great idea, though, and I'm glad that your kitties are enjoying it.
    Blessings,
    Mary

    I wish I had room for one of those. Laura, you are a genius!!!! It's amazing how pet people look at obvious pieces of furniture, and turn them into something totally different, in an order to make their cats happy. Great minds think alike!

    I KNEW what I wanted! I went looking at Lowe's with that in mind. It had to be something Amy would feel safe in, something steady and pretty private with a place on top for Samantha or Giz.. The fact that it had another shelf is what made it so perfect... I wanted to just get rid of that chair for something neater looking.

    I WISH I had room for another one.. Think of this.. a place also to hide a litter box!
