I finally got some extra cash, and I am going to give my babies a huge cat tree! I did a lot of research, and decided on this one. It holds up to 80lbs, so I am sure it's sturdy enough for big Bugsy! The other reason was the large perches, and the two houses.
I am also hopefully getting a great deal - It's going to be around $120 including delivery!!!!!!!
The money is also going to be sufficient for Bugsy's dental treatment - I am going to take him in when I get back from my trip, next week.
FINALLY things are getting into place!

Nice! My only worry would be the very top platforms that are only supported by one post. I really need to get one of these for my two but I think we need a house first... we have NO extra room right now.

That's similar to the one I'd like hubby to make for me and the cats (maybe only one ladder). But how are you getting it at $120? The sale price listed on the page is $169 now.

Oh WOW!!! That thing is amazing! I really hope to get a cat tree for my boys sometime soon. I'll have to check out ebay.


Please post pics of the furkids enjoying it ASAP!

I've been eyeing that *same* one for Tofu! I probably won't be able to place the order until mid-June though. Let me know how you like it!

They LOVE it!!!

When I first got it, I thought the boards were too thin, and that they would snap in two... I had a member from TCS who has both this, and the identical design from Go Pet Club, and the second appears to be stronger, firmer, with thicker boards... It feels pretty sturdy once you put it together - I am confident it is not going to break easily.
From what I researched, Armarkat has pretty good reviews, so I decided to give it a shot - If I but another one it will be from Go Pet.
It was a breeze to put it together - very clear instructions, all the pieces well marked... It probably took me 30-45 minutes.
They don't play much in it yet - they sleep in it, stretch, and window watch in it. They finally can completely stretch out while scratching! They also exercise climbing it, which is great!
Anyway...................................... Here are some pictures of the kitties enjoying it!



Poor Bugsy - he doesn't quite fit
- but still LOVES it!!


Watching the birdies...


an overall picture


All and all, I think this was a GREAT buy, at a great value! It is hard to beat $117 including shipping!

They really look like they are enjoying their new tree.

I've got the same one! All of my cats love it. There is always a bit of competition for the top perches though.
They've used it so much I now have to replace the sisal on the posts.

Your cats are beautiful!
