Window Seats!

[critters]

I built one, but the pics are probably too big for the bb. The legs are 2 2x4s bolted together, x 2. The top is an old piece of pine, about 6 inches wide and screwed into each 2x4 in each leg. Another 2x4 is 8 or 9 inches from the bottom (it is above the electric heater) with 2 bolts in each side, for support to the legs. Feet can be cut from a wider piece of pine; I wanted to have semicircles, but I couldn't find circular pieces anywhere. A 1x1 is between the legs but supporting the "tabletop."

I then tied carpet samples around each leg and the 2x4 support toward the bottom so both vertical and horizontal scratchers are happy. It was VERY simple; Lowe's cut the wood to size before I could've even fired up my saw, and it's custom-fit to the window and the heater. CHEAP too!!

The Contractor and I built some on the enclosed Porch so the Found Ctas can all sit in the Sun.
Nothing is too good for the Ctas.
And some are just boards with a soft cover.
They are not hard to make at all.
Look in your hardware store for shelving units , they work well for Cats.

Since I have 5 cats and several are heavy I decided to make something sturdy for them to look out the office window. This is it. The bottom shelf is more of a step for my short legged cats Scout and Rumor but sometimes I'll find one sleeping there. They love the top shelf and I've since made a pillow for it so it's extra soft. They all love it and sometimes will get in a fight over it so I guess she should have made it big enough to fit the whole window.

We have these window-sills at every window! They are highly appreciated by our cats!


My cats are allowed one 1 of the kitchencupboards. It is a great look-out point for birds! This is our RB-Sydney
