Speaking of Cat Trees

Cat shows seem to have the best prices, although the selection can be slim. The major pet stores like Petco have a better selection however their prices are a LOT higher. I bought a nice tall scratching post/tree for my two at a local pet store that was having a grand opening 20% off sale., so I guess looking around is the answer.

Not a bad idea, I've been looking for one for my cats, and I'll think I'll check out a cat show.

Debbie - the tree looks great!!!! The shelf looks really different from mine though, did he make it different? Glad to see the kitties like it and as for the tunnel, Jazz really love to sleep in it but it is also a major game/swatting spot too.

PS - I won't tell my Dad that it only took Dennis a few hours one afternoon. He worked on mine for a long time but of course he is in his 80s and not in the best of health.

He probably DID something different. He never follows directions. He considers them "suggestions"

Wow Debbie ... that is a really wonderful cat tree! Tell Dennis I need him to put the pressure on my Jerry to get busy building!!! I love the pics, and the one of Emily and Eliot using the top level for boxing! hehe
Oh and that second level is a perfect Dylan-sized one!!! Love that big fluffy guy!!!

Aww!! They look so cute playing on that tree! Thanks for the pics!

The instructions look sort of intimidating, but I bet my boyfriend can do it. I can't wait to get started on it! If you don't mind my asking, sirrahbed, how much did the project cost you altogether? Thanks!!

Well, I started this whole thread, and want to thank all of you for your input, ideas, suggestions.

I know my limitations, and those of Douglas, so I found one online and ordred it. Here it is - Cat Tree

We ordered it in blue, and it should arrive by the end of the week. It says all you need is a wrench to put it together.
