What's the most expensivecat item that you've bought?
I just got my Fosters& Smith cat cataloge yesterday and was looking at all these items....some were VERY expensive.
I think the most expensive thing I've bought Layla was...erm....well it wasn't even Layla's it was Autumn's bed.

Like a lil over $20 I think.

The most expensive accessory we bought is probably a large mat that goes in front of the litter trays to catch the excess litter from their paws. We had a small one for the one litter tray, but now we have 2 litter trays, we just bought a $25 super size mat, and the cats hate it.

Stumpy walks up next to the mat, stretches out, gets her front paws on to the edge of the litter tray, gets her weight on her front legs and one back leg, brings the other back leg up to the litter tray, then can get the last leg up and into the litter tray without ever touching the mat.

Getting out she just leaps from the litter tray to just past the mat

I think I was questioning my own sanity when we got the "Sandcastle Lounger" but it has proven to be the cats favorite thing. They use it all the time and they keep us entertianed so I guess it was worth it.

Good one Arlyn

A lot of the time when I see these huge kitty condos or perches I wonder, "Is she really gonna use it?" I always fear I'll waste money on somethings she doesn't like.

Honestly I don't think we've spent more than a buck or two on toys and furniture.
The kitties' grandmeowmy makes all of their goodies for them.

Cat furnitures and carriers, definitely.

Or is that the pair of eyeglasses chewed up by one of my cats....does it count?

I was going to say the Drinkwell fountain ($40-$50), but then I remembered that the cat tree we made cost us about $60... but then I remembered about the cat enclosure. So... it's the cat enclosure... somewhere over $400.

We spent $200 on big cat tree. We bought it during a move because my SO wanted to have it there for them when they got to the new house. He wanted them to have something special to help them through the trauma of moving. I thought it was so sweet. I was glad they liked it.

Probably also the water fountain for $40, they have a load of beds and tents that are $15-20 each, but probably $200 for all of them... we made their tree pretty cheaply but no idea of the cost as we had most of the materials here anyway.

200 bucks on the new cat tree.. I think I spent 50 on the first petmate fountain.. it started leaking so we have a smaller cheaper one now.. Hmm also 25 bucks on a litter mat, 35 bucks on the old cat tree. Oh yes, hubby bought on knee high piece of furniture before for them for christmas that was about 70-80 bucks.

We have bought three Litter-Robots........well maybe they were really for us, not the furless kids.
