WOW – you all are wonderful. Thanks you ever so much.

RedHedd – I think it will be close to a year before the next cat show around here. I did check out one local pet store, but the selection was rather meager.

mruffruff – I will definitely have help with whatever I buy. Thanks! And how many cats do you have using that duplex tree?

sirrahbed, Kuhio, CatMama, jazzcat – constructing our own or finding a local craftsman sounds like the most economical solution. Neither of us is very talented that way, although we could probably put something together that the cats would love.

catlover4ever – would you believe I have never been to the eBay site? I love the tree you have in the corner.

CalliesMom – thanks for the brand name – I’m going to check that out.

sirrahbed – thanks for your pictures. That will really help if we go that route.

jazzcat – wonderful picture – of the tree and the cats. Thanks!

QSL – thanks for the tips regarding the rope.
