Take another look! I just added some pis of Caliban on the tree. I told
my Mum, who helped me assemble the tree, that I will probably never see
Miranda again, because she loves being high up so much. She does enjoy
the tree, but she still comes and curls up with me at night. Caliban
enjoys the tree, too, after he figured out how to drag his big belly all
the way up. ;o) The loft is nice and broad, so they can snooze or
wrestle or just lounge in comfort there.

Yes, the things I do for them! <groping around in purse for money to
feed self remainder of month> I am grateful to a certain very, very
generous lurker. This is the Xmas present for the kitties. The delivery
time was very long, and then the parts sat around while I mustered
enough energy to assemble them.

Wow, what a nice present!!  I hope they make you feel appreciated.

Make Levees, Not War

It's a Finnish company, but they do have a site in English as well.
Here's the page with different assemblies of their products. They are
mix-and-match, so you can create the cat tree you want. There's a
version of the loft near the bottom of the page, but I don't have as
many bells and whistles, just the one nest.

It took me a couple of weeks mustering up the courage to tackle the
thing, but when I finally did, it only took a couple of hours (with the
help of my mum).

Mir was the first on the tree, obviously. It took a little longer for
Caliban to figure out how he should get here with his big tummy. I
lifted him the first few times, but now he scales the poles like he'd
been doing it all his life. Besides scaling the pole, Miranda jumps from
the top of the other cat tree (a couple of metres - about six feet)
quite effortlessly. Hehe, I don't think Caliban will ever manage that.

Miranda's so elegant and athletic, but I especially like picture 70
(palace10). That's a contented cat! Isn't it funny how comfortable they
appear with bits hanging off whatever they're lying on? I noticed it again
with my own and the windowsill yesterday.

That's quite a complex tree. It must have been difficult to install.

Watching them enjoy it has more than repaid me. :o) I'm not quite sure,
though, hat it's such a good idea to let Caliban practise his climbing
skills before we set off for the island...

Heh, they wish!

There's no such thing as a spoiled cat, just a properly trained hoomin.

I'd love to have something like that for the cats, but the Palace will
have to do for them until I win the lottery and can buy a big house and
have builders make them the elevated cat-run. ;o)
