Our new tree is here! So of course, even though it was late we had to put it together. Our girls were so anxious.

First: Our old tree. Small, but still a hit (especially with the added string):

Our new tree!!..."hmmm...this smells funny. What do you think Pebbles?":

Needed to spend some time playing with the ties that held the box together
:

Already fighting over the cubbys "My house!, No my house!":

Done!! "Let's Play!"


(Please take notice of the "ownerships"...
)

And now the games begin........

Pebbles has claimed "ownership" of the top bunk and Snickers has claimed the house. (notice my new shy girl Molly cowering in the lower house
At least she joined the group. She's usually under the bed. )


And now it starts.......(of course - I knew it would, too many females in one house)
Fight for the top house:

And the winner is....

Now the fight for the upper most shelf....


And the winner is.....Actually there was none. We had to break this one up. It ended up with hissing and growling. Not a pretty site.

All in all though, my girls are thrilled!! Even as I look out into the living room now I can see 2 sets of glowing eyes in the dark in our new tree

Oh my gosh, that's huge! So nice to see cats enjoying what we buy them for once, instead of ignoring it, LOL.

Looks like you and the kitties are all glad you spent the money on the new tree! I would be if I were a cat!

Before I read the first caption I was thinking, hmmm that first pic doesn't look like a new tree. But the new tree?... Wow! That looks more like a cat resort than just a tree. Nice!

Ummmm...so the general consensus here is ......we went a "little" large on the tree.


Funny thing is I almost had two of these.
I put a bid on this one AFTER I had already put a bid in on another one cause I liked this one better. I was pretty sure I would be outbid on the first cause it had happened 3 times already on the same model, but when it got down to the last couple hours and I was still high bidder I started walking around the house wondering where I was going to stick a second one.
. Thankfully someone finally out bid me.
Anways - Ebay - $100 (including shipping). Only thing I noticed is that the wood is a little bit thinner than my other little tree. I don't think it will matter (cat's aren't that heavy), but I guess only time will tell and this seller had a great rating telling me people aren't having trouble with them. I would highly recommend this seller too - Petisfun. My shipment arrived in one day!

That's a fantastic tree. It's so good to see all the cats enjoying themselves. This is sure to be a hit for many years to come.

Man they sure could'nt wait till you put it together
they just knew it was for them
That's a sweet deal you got on it too....hmmm.... I might have to check em' out
How do you think it'll stand up to a rambunctious little boy leaping to-and-fro off it?

Ummm...not all the cats. My old lady showed no interest like the little ones did so we decided to show it to her and picked her up to bring her over. As we were just about to put her down on it - the low subtle growling began as if to say "if you put me on this playground thing like a child, I will take your eye out"
. I'm sure she'll explore it on her own though.

would that be Zoey? i couldn't find her in any of the pix... great tree
you did a good job selecting. mine came from Petisfun, too. i've attached mine to the wall w/a couple of L-brackets because Pixel & Java tussle over the top shelf fairly often [Pixel wins] & it would wobble...kinda worried me!
