    For now, setting up several empty cardboard boxes - which you must have, moving as you are, with holes cut in some sides but not all, some stacked - would be a good makeshift "jungle gym" until you have a chance to buy or build an official tree! Cardboard and some packing tape can make a great temporary structure.

    Are your cats all climbers or tunnelers? Do they like relaxing up on top of something or underneath it? How many kitties need resting spots? Do they like dangling toys or ones that move on the surface? There are so many options, the "best" tree depends on the cats who will be using it!

    I've bought some very good cat furniture at cat shows as well as on e-bay. Here's a link to some discount cat furniture that you might like: http://www.crazycatcondos.com/discou...furniture.html. Here's another link from overstock.com: http://www.overstock.com/Pet-Supplie.../312/dept.html. Good luck and congrats on becoming a homeowner.

    Thank you both We have just the two cats... I have a feeling at least one of them will be a climber (they don't really have an opportunity to do so at the condo but I have found Espeon on top of the fridge before). Not so sure if they would play with dangly stuff... I feel like all they would do is use it as a scraching post and lounge on it... we have a scratching post for them now and they both use it all the time. They are *always* in the windows looking outside.

    Yikes, I'm sorry I don't see the option to edit posts from mobile (having internet hooked up at the house today so its been turned off at the condo to use the laptop!) but wanted to add... they have been going nuts over the boxes at the condo... especially the ones I bring from work filled with paper packing material... you'd think they died and went to kitty heaven the way they're acting.

    This was Freckles favorite
    It's not a cat tree, but it kept her busy.

    Here is the cat tree we have out in the dining room. Jax loves to lay on the top especially when the window is open.

    We also have a smaller basic one in the "cat room" that I don't have a picture of on here. It just has the round tunnel thing (that they never really use) with a scratching post (that Paizly loves) holding up a platform at the top. That one is also in the window so they can sit and look out.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!
