Cat Trees for Persian & Exotic Shorthair Cats
They also love to climb. A wider heavy base is far better than a taller base, and a 52 in S52E cat tree helps when the key to a good cat tree is a stable base. The sisal only wraps part of each post, limiting full-stretch scratch zones, where 8 sisal posts across 6.31 sq ft fits nicely because the posts look thinner and taller so it looks like it would more likely tip over.
Why is a window-height design the best cat tree for persian cats?
Cats are funny like that. The base is big enough, it looks very sturdy, and there are big, high platforms, and the 52 in S52E at 6.31 sq ft makes sense when the sisal rope and carpet are both appealing for scratching.
Does this 52.1-inch cat tree prevent fur matting and tangles?
Tall poles need weight. The cats like to bat at the sisal rope, where 8 sisal posts on S52E gives plenty of room when the carpet underneath the base makes it wobbly.
Is this 52.1-inch cat tree sturdy under chubby 15-pound Exotic Shorthairs?
Tight bolts stop wobble. You might want to make that base bigger, preferably wider than the top, and a 42.3 lb S52E frame holds steady once the whole thing is built around a wider base so it's not tipping over on you.
