I'm trying to raise money for my move to Prague, so I'm making these to sell at the local farmers market and craigslist.

Unless you are near the south-central coast of California, you are out of luck as I won't ship these. This is basically just showing them off. If you are interested, PM me.

Those look great! I'd love to have a cat tree but I don't have the funds, or the room for one right now.

Have you considered making window perches too? Or what about cat beds?

There have been some fabulous examples of crafty things made for kitties, some of them being "no sew" too. Basically just cut and tie the ends together instead of sewing.

Anything pet related will sell great.

Another idea is a raised stand for food dishes. I am currently using some plastic storage containers stacked up and turned upside down. I put Chynna's dish on top of that.

Another idea that would be good is a wall mounted scratch post. The kind that you can attach to an "outside" corner where 2 walls meet. The corners like on these islands....

My cats don't scratch the wall, but I often see Abby stand up and stretch against a corner. If there was a scratch post high enough up, she could get in a good scratch and a stretch.

I know. It was just a picture to show the type of "sharp" corner that I meant, and that was the first picture I saw that demonstrated that.

However, I did find a picture of the type of scratch post I am referring to. However, it doesn't need to be so elaborate.
