72-inch Casita Cat Furniture Tree Condo

Our cats love the tree. We put the "nests" up higher, but the cats still don't use them and don't seem to like the ladder either. However, they hang out constantly on the upper levels, they love the hanging mouse, and the ladder protects their food and water from the dogs, so overall, the product is well worth it.

I've had this now for three years, one of my two cats still uses it daily and still sleeps in the basket and on the top platform. Even though both are declawed now both still instinctively use the scratching poles. Great item one of the best I've seen and very well contructed.

We've "collected" stray cats, till we now have 6 indoor/outdoor cats (from 6 lbs all the way to 16 lbs). After our old cat tree finally lost the last of its sisal, we decided to buy one from Overstock. I chose this one because it has enough hammocks, levels, houses and sisal scratching posts for all my cats. I received it 5 days after I ordered it - Overstock's usual great delivery service - and opened the box the next day to start putting it together. There are no written instructions for assembly - just pictures, so after studying the parts list and the assembly pictures for about 15 minutes, it took me only about 45 minutes to put the cat tree together. The only reason it took me that long is because I had 4 cats jumping around on it as I was trying to screw the pieces together! (Start assembly from the TOP of the cat tree -- very important!) It's very sturdy, very aesthetically pleasing and my cats love it! And because they love it, I love it. I highly recommend this cat tree to anyone with cats - especially if you have a Siamese...they go crazy with the hanging toy. I gave it 4 stars only because when I got to the part where I needed to attach the legs to the base of the tree (the piece that holds the whole thing up), the screw holes were not aligned properly. So I only got two of the legs screwed to the base piece. Before letting all my cats play on it, we had them test it for stability and sturdiness. It works fine, but we're going to fix the situation by drilling new holes in the base (yeah, right...that's on the to-do list right after blowing the snow off our sidewalk in South Texas! In other words, it's never gonna happen.)

I bought this tree for our first kitten and am very pleased with it. It is super soft and the size fits well in the corner of my living room. My kitten absolutely loves the 'house' and has slept in it multiple times. Since I am planning on getting another kitten, I just wonder if they will fight over this 1 house-LOL! The price seemed fair, the shipping cheap, and delivery was quick and efficient. My only (minor) complaint is the instructions--I would enlarge them and make them a little clearer. I put this together by myself and since I don't do these kinds of things often, it took me longer than it should have (my boyfriend is surpised I did it by myself, but women can do these things too!). All in all, though, I am extremely pleased and so is my kitten! My boyfriend has a cat and is buying from this company (a different tree, though) because of my positive experience.
