Hi Everyone! After several discussions with Head Cat Anne, she has kindly allowed me to post this thread to conduct a bit of research.
I am a master carpenter by trade, and have long been dissatisfied with some on the offerings in the market place for cat furniture. After some recent behavioural problems with a new arrival to my cat family, my vet, (who is an absolute whiz at solving these types of problems) got me doing a lot of research into feline environmental enrichment. I have since been able to design some products that my “testing engineers†love, and have solved a few bad habits.
I feel very confident in my designs, which I hope to have ready for sale in early 2011 some time, but I need help some of the human user aspects. I will get into that more later in this thread.
For now what I would like is to hear about your experiences with the products on the market place. What do you like, what do you hate, what do you wish for?! This is your chance to contribute to the development of a product that both you and your cats love!
Please donâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t name any companies if you have negative things to say, just keep it general or send me a PM. Feel free to post names and links to stuff you love.
I look forward to having your input into the final designs of my product.
I want to especially thank Anne for helping me with this project
. I will definitely be becoming a forum sponsor here in the very near future. I also will have some nice surprises for some contributors to this thread.
