Petco's "Trixie DreamWorld" Furniture?

Anyone ever seen this brand before, or know of anyone who owns it?

I was just looking online @ Petco's kitty furniture, and came across this line - Trixie's DreamWorld. It says it's a new item/online only. There are a *few* reviews, but not many.

What caught my interest was the price! Seems fairly cheap (that said, some of them are obviously smaller trees). However I bought two cheap/clearance cat trees in Petco 4 years ago for $15 & $25 - they're still going strong!

I'm divided, I want a larger cat tree, but fear for Lola "Stupey Tail"s safety - she's clumsy & not very smart. If she's on top of the tree & has a seizure..... ???? So I've been considering several smaller/shorter cat trees, as opposed to 1 - 2 large ones.

I'm assuming no one else has heard of it, either? I'm thinking about ordering a cheaper/smaller one - just to see. We'll see what I finally settle on!

I was headed to my Petco Saturday so I checked & they don't have them, I discovered the same thing you did once - that the store had an "online only" item. I also asked some of their managers if they've heard any positive or negative feedback on them - they've heard nothing one way or another (and I trust them to tell me the truth given how much I shop there).

I printed off comparisons of tons of trees off Petco & went back through them last night with several other people for feedback. I ruled out the one you have based on the ladders, if there are ladders they'd need to be solid to decrease the chances of Lola being able to injur herself on them. Another concern I had was how sturdy/stable would it be - so it's good to know it's held up OK for you.

Good to know that it only lasted about 2 years. That makes me lean away from them, no matter how cheap. Because if they destroy easy.....Lola will eat *anything* that fits in her mouth. I don't need her eating them (and she chews on the cat trees, too). My favorite little fruit loop.

I just saw some mention of being able to return it to the store, so was considering such. (I also considered donating it to somewhere if I hated it.) The lack of reviews anywhere concerned me, as I did google the brand & some of the names of the trees I'm considering. But they may be fairly new, and if it takes a week to ship to, then I can understand not many reviews as people wouldn't have had them long.


I did get a link of something wonderful e-mailed to me, for Lola. It was a giant hamster wheel, she aught to be safe in that! I've always been over-protective of my cats, but Lola's so injury prone....I've never been this "paranoid" about a cat before.

(PS - Still shopping, I found this tree on Amazon I like but the reviews are so-so, both the build & the fact that it's PINK!)

Well, I'm kind of narrowing things down. I've pretty much ruled out the Trixie furniture, the cheaper ones are so small IMO they aren't worth getting, or else they'd be a danger to Lola. I've found a model of Armarkat furniture I like, the one a family member of mine has, so I'm going go with that. I can get it off Amazon for just over $100. I'm a little nervous of it's height - but I think we'll be OK so long as gravity doesn't surprise Lola too much.

What I'm trying hard to find it something basic like this -

Twitch would *love* that....but I'm not willing to pay much over $50 for it, let alone $120+. Twitch would love the trees with the "tunnels" on them (larger for an adult 10 lb cat with a massive spay sway ). And the cradles I know she'd love.

I've found them on eBay for an OK price, but I'm not willing to purchase through eBay. So I keep looking....

I ended up picking up these two trees on Petco today. This one is shorter & this one is larger.

Of course, Lola cannot figure out either of them. She just falls off.
