65 Inch Cat Tree with a Self Groomer, Removable Bed and 5.7 Inch Posts

A cat tree arrives, gets built, and the cat sleeps on the sofa for a fortnight. Nothing on the new frame smells of the cat yet, and no amount of lifting it onto a perch changes that.

The bed on the lower perch lifts out and the maker says it can be used on its own. Put it where the cat already sleeps for a week, let it pick up the scent, then drop it back into the perch.

Wide and low, then tall

The base is 23 inches square, the platforms are 18.5 by 15.5 set at roughly 18 and 48 inches, and the top perch is 18 across and 4.5 deep. Sixty five inches overall with 33 lbs published for each tier. The wide low platforms are the detail worth noticing, because they are landing pads rather than ledges.

A bed you can take away

The lower perch holds a round cat bed that lifts straight out. The maker states it is machine washable and can be used on its own, which means it can sit on the sofa in the evening and go back on the tree in the morning. A familiar bed moved to a new place is the oldest trick there is for settling a cat.

Paper rope, and a brush

The posts are wrapped in paper rope rather than sisal. It is softer under a claw and it generally wears through sooner, so it is worth knowing which you are buying. Fixed to the base is a self groomer, a stiff brush a cat rubs against to pull out loose hair, and cats take to those without any encouragement at all.

Padded landings

Both jumping platforms are padded rather than left as bare board under fabric. On a tree with real distance between levels that padding takes some shock out of a landing, which counts most for an older cat or a heavy one that arrives flat rather than lightly.

Being able to move the bed off the tree and back again is the simplest way to get a suspicious cat onto a piece of furniture it did not choose.

The self groomer is a brush a cat operates itself. Long haired cats use them constantly, and it pulls out loose hair that would otherwise end up on the rug.

Padded platforms and a wide low first step suit a cat whose jumping is not what it was, which is worth checking before buying anything this tall.
