How tall is the present one and how many shelves, tunnels, boxes, etc. does it have?

Ours is about 4 feet tall and its really too small for Charlie - was fine when he was a kitten. DH will be building a 2nd treehouse about 3 feet higher and we'll connect the two with a ramp.

And here's the one which I am considering of buying:-

It's so pretty and someone pointed out this one actually from another thread. I am so tempted to get it.

Well the first one is "busy" and should do. If you can afford the 2nd one, go for it. But only if you have the extra money and its not money you need for your own bills :)

I have one kitty, and have the tree you posted first, the tan one. I also have another tree. It isn't as big but she does still use it all the time. She :heart3: her cat trees so I say go for two if you can. :)

The only problem that I see now is how to reorganize my apartment space to accommodate another tree. Well, I think I just have to be reasonable now and think of a better way to spend the money on her elsewhere.

You should check out Pet Edge: http://www.petedge.com/home.jsp

We got a Huge... I mean huge cat tree.. it is around 6 feet tall for $100. This is it: http://www.petedge.com/Meow-Town-Kitty-Condo-ZW81576.pro . When we first got our cat we searched high and low for cheap cat gyms and Pet Edge, by far has the cheapest. Just be prepared to spend a few hours putting it together, the directions were horrible :)

But all these cat trees pale when compared to the Cat House. Have you seen it?

This is the wrong site to post this one, if you want to be talked out of it.
:lol3::lol3::lol3:
There is nothing wrong with a cat having several cat trees. The more the merrier.

Oh mrblanche! I saw the pics of the cat house in Cat Fancy mag just a few days ago. What a marvelous idea. Those kitties are truly spoiled to the max. How wonderful really ... I've seen something similar and I think it's called Kitty Walk or something. Very creative. But I am not about to construct one because I feel strange having my kitties walking on walls. It's just me I guess but it's truly a wonderful idea.

My..thanks for the site. I was looking for a kitty tunnel and saw exactly what I wanted. Also, their cat trees are so colorful! Oh gosh, I know I will get a kitty tunnel and might change my mind about the cat tree which I initially wanted to purchase and get one from PetEdge instead.

jenniferd : Dang! You are just so right about this site. I was hoping to get talked out of buying one thing, instead I got sucked into buying another. Phew!

Well I have 2 cats and 6 cat trees (ok, granted a couple are smallish scratching posts, but one is ceiling high and 3 of them are 3ft or taller) - so by that reasoning I'd say you need 3....... ;)
