Cat Tree Reviews

Cat-Tree-Reviews

A cat makes a wonderful pet for both adults and children. They are quiet, easy to house and fun to have around the house. They are cheap to feed and will sit on your knee in the evenings. Everyone loves a cat in the house. However if you’ve decided that you’re going to get a pet cat there’s a few things you need to think about. One of them is how to keep him happy and entertained. And a great way to make sure you have a happy feline is to provide him or her with a cat tree and scratching post.

A cat tree is something for your him to play on. Cats are natural climbers. If you’ve ever been outside and seen him go up a tree you’ll be amazed at how fast they can climb. Felines just love to climb trees, and of course if he is an outdoors cat and there’s trees around then he can do so to his heart’s content. But if your cat is an indoors cat then there are certainly no trees to him to climb on, or at least there aren’t unless you buy a cat tree.

Today’s cat furniture goes beyond scratching posts and pet beds. Cat trees and condos, as well as steps, rockers and tunnels are all part of the available inventory of furniture. A cat tree is one or more vertical posts that have resting places on the ‘limbs’. Sometimes they are shelves, or may look like short boxes. Most often trees are covered in carpet, with the lower part having sisal or burlap to encourage scratching.

Scratching posts are designed to provide the cat with somewhere to scratch that can happily be damaged from the scratching without upsetting the owner of the cat. There are both horizontal and vertical cat scratching posts, however both provide the same function, to give the cat somewhere to scratch to save the legs of your furniture.

Many cats seem to enjoy the challenge posed by intricate cat tree and condo designs. Cat trees also make better scratching posts than most scratching posts. They allow the cat to reach up to their full extent and really stretch and exercise their muscles while they scratch. Cat trees also make it easier to play with your cat. You can easily get to them when there are up, and they are less likely to scratch you when they are hanging from their favorite perch.

Below are some cat trees that we have reviewed and summarized. We have sorted it with the ones we find the best at the top of the table.
