Yaheetech 53.6'' H Multilevel Cat Tree with Ladder, Condo, and Basket, Brown

We just adopted a kitten from our local shelter as a companion for our small aging Yorkie/Maltese mix. All our previous cat rescues had been de-clawed, but this little guy is so young he still has his claws. In an effort to save our furniture we decided we needed to get him a play tower with multiple sisal rope scratching poles as well as other scratching posts strategically placed throughout the house. Single posts are easy to diy but we wanted a play tower with multiple perches/cubbies that would be stable and help him feel he is king of his castle. (Shush, my animals are not spoiled!!) So, after looking at dozens of different ones we decided this was the best value and keep us in budget. Everything arrived expertly packed in one box. The pictorial instructions were clear and quite easy for us to assemble. If you've put together Ikea or similar bookcases, desks & other Assembly Required furniture then this will also be easy for you. I do recommend having a small screwdriver on hand to help line up the holes for bolting on the posts, etc. We were on the first step of putting the reinforcement poles inside the cubby when our kitten jumped inside and claimed it. He inspected and played on/with every part as we built it and especially loves the little tunnel and the cubby. The rope covered posts are his favorite way to climb it and uses the ramp to run down. He's happy, our furniture is safer so we're happy, and with more vertical play areas taking him off the ground the dog is happier as well. This is not solid wood, so it is light but very sturdy and well balanced. It comes with a wall strap as well for added stability which we'll use once we settle it in it's permanent place.
