  • So my fluffy destroyed old cat tree and insisted for new one. About 20eur and some hours off from sunday and she got new cat tree. I had thought about buying a cat tree, but around 20 eur there was nothing good to choose from. Since I like to do everything myself, I bought the materials and made it myself.
    Material list:
    1x D110-1000mm sewer pipe
    1x D110-250mm sewer pipe
    1x D110/110 sewer pipe triangle
    3x D110 sewer pipe cups
    1x D110 sewer pipe 90 angle
    1x D110/110 sewer pipe coupler
    1x 6mm x 60m rope (around pipe is about 36cm so if you want make 1m scratch post you need 100cm/0,6cm= 166.7 x 36cm= ~6000cm = 60m of rope
    1x 30x30x1.2 cm plywood for first step
    1x 40x40x1.2 cm plywood for cat bed +4x 39x4x1,2 cm plywood for bed walls +1x 40x40x2 foam cushion + 1m artificial fur fabric
    1x 35x35x2.6 cm plywood for base
    some screws and glue sticks
    Tools that may be useful for this project:

    Wow what a great idea! Very simple and easy to scale up or modify. Only the base/foot should be larger or heavier to prevent tipping. Piling rocks beyond a certain height won't make it more stable, just heavier. Can't wait to try this!

      Good luck with your scratch post. :) my cat use it every day. Sometimes lazy way - sleeping on that middle shelf and scratching nails without getting up. I was using hot glue for every round of rope, so if cat destroy rope, it does not unwind all the way. My build is good only in corner, because its quite high and base cant provide stability. Need to redesign litle bit. Probably cut round circle in base and post tube through. Or put round plywood in tube , screw around and then screw to base. :)

    A wider base would make this cat tree more stable. I would use 4x4 fence posts instead of the plumbing parts which are more expensive. I liked the fluffy material used instead of carpet on the base and shelves. With some elastic sewn around the edges, they could have been removable for washing. Some 2 inch foam on the shelves would have been nice. Great project. Now, how about building a Catio ?
