I LOVE your pictures of your 2 kitties! They are beautiful!! Your cat tower looks very professional, too. And it looks like quite the success with your kitties.

That was neat! I love seeing ideas people have for building their cats play things like that.

NeelOj.....LOVE it! Thanks for sharing. What a cool and creative idea. And your kids have made full use of it. Wish my cats would still "hunt" the bugs that get in the house. They have lost interest in their old age. Enjoyed the pics, thanks again!

I really like the box idea too! I may make one using moving boxes I have on hand.
I made what I call a "kitty gym" and it only cost me $28 because I had most of the stuff on hand. I used two old CD shelving and bought boards to go from one to the other. I had old thin carpet, never used, that I used with a staple gun and tacked the carpet onto the boards. I made this mainly so KoKo and CeCe could sit at the windows and see out. They have made very good use of it.

That was awesome! Thanks for sharing the link. I love the fact that the cat owner wanted to make it up to Oscar, that he took the time and thought to make it, and I loved seeing Oscar hanging out in it. Made my morning. It is so nice to hear about wonderful people treating their kitties well.

Not just expensive, but probably wouldn't "last" too long. Especially with pinchy claws going at it. My guys would tear it apart in no time!

I know! Those were expensive boxes. We made a "galaxy" for our kittens out of four 12 pack pop boxes, and a center box. They loved it, but then got too big for it.

That was so creative! But how much did he spend on boxes? :)
