Why Isn’t the Base Size Enough?
Upper platforms reach past the base. Many buyers looking for something really sturdy, tall, and stable enough for big cats notice that most standard cat trees seem too flimsy or small.
Check both footprint numbers first. Owners bought a rather short cat tree because owners are going to put shelves on the walls, but the carpet underneath the base makes it wobbly. The base is big enough, it looks very sturdy, and there are big, high platforms, and two-post deep metal baskets helps when a wider heavy base is far better than a taller base.
What Sticks Out Past the Base Board?
Ramps and baskets add width. The whole thing is built around a wider base so it’s not tipping over on you, and a two-post deep metal basket helps when a cat likes to stretch and scratch on the large window sill.
They also love to climb. You might want to make that base bigger, preferably wider than the top, and our 83-inch five-post tower helps when they sleep in a cat tree in two baskets next to each other.
How Much Floor Do These Four Trees Need?
The cats like to bat at the sisal rope. You are not sure which tree would be better because the first one is 140cm tall and is wider, and the second one is 170cm tall and is narrower.
Cats are funny like that. There should be a scratch post in almost every room, while our 83-inch five-post tower works well since a chair will probably end up in the corner by the cat tree.
How Do I Measure My Room?
A cat likes to sleep stretched out quite often. Several owners bought some sisal rope to replace the worn out bits on scratching posts, and the carpet is in good shape and just seems to need cleaning in a couple of spots.
Pay attention to the return window. They will only scratch the parts with sisal rope or rough carpet, and you don’t need to have your cat tree double as a scratch post, though many people like them to.
Which Tree Fits My Space?
Some senior cats are much more spry than others. They have several cat trees, scratch posts, treats and so many toys for them, and our 74-inch slim tower helps when the sisal rope and carpet are both appealing for scratching.
Your cats love all portions of it. If the top platform starts wobbling because it’s made from particle board, the cat will not use it, and the 83-inch eight-tier frame helps when besides that you could also get cat climbing wall shelves around the cat tree. Get a square metal base that is more than twice the weight of the tower, and and more than twice the diameter of the tower along one edge.
The exception to all of this is kittens. Renters in a very small apartment often don’t have room for a huge cat tree, and there is also a cat condo in every room because the key to a good cat tree is a stable base.
