Why Do Cats Fight Over the Top Spot on a Cat Tree?
Every cat wants the crown. At first they loved sharing the same cat tree, and as they grew up, they both needed their own space, and having separate trees also helps stop unnecessary fights.
Grown littermates need separate beds. They love to snug in the hammock or top which worked great when they were kittens, and now though, they’re quite large and are spilling out the sides.
How Do Two Top Beds Change the Way Multi-Cat Homes Share Space?
Twin beds share the view. 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.
The carpet underneath the base makes it wobbly. Owners with two cats that love to rip and tear at their current tree would like something fairly big so two average sized cats can comfortably play on it together. It depends on how solid they are and how much they weigh, not a lab wobble test, and they last a long time, are very sturdy and cats love their cat trees.
Most standard cat trees seem too flimsy or small. A wider heavy base is far better than a taller base, and older cats can’t comfortably twist or climb a height more than maybe a foot and a half because they have several cat trees, scratch posts, treats and so many toys for them.
Two Top Beds vs One Extra-Tall Tower: How Do Our Multi-Cat Trees Compare?
The cats like to bat at the sisal rope. 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.
A cat likes to sleep stretched out quite often. It should be easy to get from one level to the next, and our split multi-board corner tree helps when they love that spot or the little basket at the top. Maintenance means practicality is key for pet owners, and many cat trees feature removable and washable cushions, making it easy to maintain hygiene.
Which Multi-Cat Tree Fits Your Home Best?
Some senior cats are much more spry than others. The two younger ones love it, and though neither really use the highest tier, a tree has bowls off the sides of it, and both kittens seem to love those.
They also really love the trees with baskets. You want something huge, like 6+ ft tall, with tons of perches for climbing and scratching posts. The base is big enough, it looks very sturdy, and the wall strap stops tipping where there are big, high platforms to lay on.
