Default Catnipped's new cat tree

I can't find the thread again, so I'll have to post seperately... I
just watched the video of your furry friends exploring their new cat
tree. How cute! It looks like the boys are going to grow up to be VERY
big cats (either that or Jesse is remarkably small...) Looks like they
love that new tree!


No, I'd say that Jessie is about average - she's 7.5 to 8.0 pounds. I think
the boys might be big - if they grown into their ears and tails - but the
are very, very lean cats, almost like Abyssinians , like this

We just bought the girls a new cat tree of their own, but it's not
nearly as nice as yours... really we got ripped off. Never ever
EVER buy a super-cheap cattree on Ebay! I thought it would be big
enough for Silver to climb on it comfortably and the perches are TINY
so she only just fits... Not to mention it's unstable as heck because
the base is far too small for it and our ceiling isn't even enough to
make the screw-in-top sit firmly - Silly and Tessie were exploring it
and Tessie tried to bound up it like she did the old one, and she
shook it right loose from the ceiling! Fortunately it rocked and went
back into place without actually falling over, but they both got the
fright of their lives (and so did I because I was watching at the
time!)


Aw Karen, that sucks! Did you see if you could get a refund on it - or did
you at least give the seller a bad review on eBay?

The one we got at PetsMart cost $190 + tax, which was way more than we
wanted to pay, but it's made out of very heavy wood - even with the boys
flinging themselves around on it (and I have more video of that) it doesn't
rock or tip.

Hugs,
