You know CL4ever I just don't get it!! I see that pic of your new tree and I would think that it would be heaven for kitties! It is really nice. I put so much thought into the tree and chose this one only because you can replace or add pieces at any time. It was more expensive ($360 w/shipping) but I was trying to be smart and plan into the future. Plus this one had all posts covered in sisel. They have shredded their carpet condo's.
I was crushed for a day or two. I mean that would have been an awfully big and expensive plant stand!!!
Thank goodness with each passing day it is becoming more and more used. Leroy is the top percher and has been since day one. The others are starting to use the scratching posts now. I think it is getting alot of use when we aren't home. I have not been able to get Pervy on it (or so I thought!). I got up during the night to potty and I flipped on the light and perched waaaay up on the top was Ms. Pervy sound to sleep. I think they are just messing with my head! BRATS I tell ya!

Kirsten I guess your right about trying to make the ones we love happy. They could have at least acted like they liked even if they had to fake it!!!
