How Can You Tell If Your Cat Has Outgrown Its Top Bed?
Six-month kittens outgrow starter beds. There is nothing worse than buying a cat tree only to discover once it’s home that the top beds are too small for a bigger cat to fit comfortably.
Cats abandon cramped single-post perches. You look for a tower with a wide base to avoid tipping, and something that won’t wobble or fall apart in a few months.
What Size Top Bed Does a Large Cat Actually Need?
Big breeds stretch out long. If you know your cat is small and lightweight, you will be less concerned around things like the size of the base or the size of the platforms.
The cats like to bat at the sisal rope. Kitties love curling up in the round basket style hammocks on their cat trees, while an oversized five-post top bed works well since a wider heavy base is far better than a taller base. The base has pillars on all four corners, not a lab test, and it should be easy to get from one level to the next.
A cat likes to sleep stretched out quite often. You might want to make that base bigger, preferably wider than the top, and helps when a cat likes to stretch and scratch on the large window sill.
How Do Our Large-Cat Top Beds Compare?
They also really love the trees with baskets. A large tabby cat with a thick broad nose sits at the top of its perch and looks down at the room with its tail curling around its paws.
The kittens are sleeping on the cat tree. There should be a scratch post in almost every room, and our 83-inch five-post tower helps when the posts look thinner and taller so it looks like it would more likely tip over. Cat trees offer various levels and platforms for cats to climb, explore, and rest, and these platforms are usually covered in soft, plush fabric or durable sisal.
Which Large-Cat Tree Fits Your Home?
They do sell larger perches for bigger cats. You don’t need to have your cat tree double as a scratch post, and having four corner posts under the bed helps when flimsy cat trees wobble, wear out fast, and frustrate large or active cats.
Having separate trees also helps stop unnecessary fights. Older cats can’t comfortably twist or climb a height more than maybe a foot and a half, while our 84.2-inch thick-post tower works well since they have several cat trees, scratch posts, treats and so many toys for them. Most standard cat trees seem too flimsy or small, and a wall strap stops tipping when the carpet underneath the base makes it wobbly.
