I bought a 2 meter tall tree, about $180, in january and my goddamn four cats ignored it and kept scratching my furniture. So, I solved by sprinkling catnip all over ir and today, they love playing in it even after I cleaned it. That's your answer: buy catnip. Your furniture, wallet and sanity will thank you. 👌
Me: spends two days making this for my cat My cat: eats a spider then pukes it up, sleeps for 3 hours in an Amazon box then chases some old receipt I didn't aim well enough at the bin
i knew within the first 60 seconds that i wouldn't be taking on a project like this. all i could think was, man, if i only had the tools. and the capability to use them. but i watched it through to the end. what a piece of workmanship. this is a great cat tree, and it looks much sturdier than what i imagine the store bought ones to be. as jim palmore says, i'm glad my cats didn't see it, i would be having to take a woodworking class right now. great cat tree, your cat callie is a fortunate feline.
I was mesmerized while watching this incredible cat tower get built. It's unique, fun for cats and looks like it will last forever. So well made. If three female cats show up at your door with a suitcase, they're mine. I tried to explain I couldn't possibly make them a cat tree with my two hands and 10 thumbs and they started packing their toys immediately.
Thank you so much for showing this to us it looks great I'm going to try it. It is so nice to watch something like this without having them stop every 3 minutes to tell you how to do something
I buy two of these trees a year.. My cat MASSACRES THEM . This is by far the best one I have seen. Absolutely fabulous to watch and your Callie is a very lucky Puddy to have such a clever and loving Dad .. The ones I buy have too many things on them and no room to roll around like this one. Kudo"s for the added touch of the ball in the box thingy ..
I was amazed by the way you work and the clean finishes... and loved to see your Angel trying every part of it 😊😊😊...WELL DONE AND THANKS FOR LOVING YOUR CAT SOOO MUCH😁😁😁
The little setup for wrapping the sisal around the tube was genius! I can't believe I've never thought of it before. And the little box with the jingle balls in it - I never would've thought to add that into a cat tree 🤯
I had a nice cat tree for a while. Probably months. My cat used to watch me when I went near it because if it wasn't sufficient enough for the human slaves to sit and play on, shit must be no good. Lol would you believe I climbed my ass up there and next day he was sleeping on it and has been for months?! My fiancee to this day still doesn't know I did that. Just knows the cat started to like it all of a sudden! Lol! 😆🤣🤣😂🤣
Looks exactly like mine too. Love how the cat played on the whole thing, completely deleted all my criticisms of it except the fact that an older larger cat would need larger circular tops on those top posts.
Fantastically done Bud. Glad to see you back with another video. I'm jealous of the cat as this is one heck of a play tower. Hope all is well 7 Dirty Jersey out!!
Great build. The only thing I might of changed is the large box the cat goes into, when cats are sick they will hide in a place like that so I'd make a door on the back so you can get them out.
I'm looking to build a cat tree for my girlfriend. I was very happy to see your video. it looks time consuming, but doable. The joy your kitty had playing on it definitely makes it look very much worth while too. Thanks for the great post and the inspiration!!!!!
This is AWESOME!!!!!! I can't love this enough. Best cat tree/tower video I've seen yet! I may do something similar but need to find an alternative for wood because it's sooooo expensive these days. Edit 1: What staple gun are you using and does it work with 3/4" plywood or would a brad nailer be better for going through that thick of plywood? (Sorry. New to woodworking.) Edit 2: Oooooh, I wonder what your pretty kitty would do with toys hanging down from different spots on the tree?
Hi Heather, thank you very much! To fit the fleece I used an electric staple gun like this: www.screwfix.ie/p/titan-ttb515stp-15mm-second-fix-electric-nail-gun-stapler-240v/99925 and it worked perfectly on the plywood. I did use a brad nailer to help secure the wood into the tubes but some screws would also work. Some hanging toys would be a great addition, they would just need to be secured very well! If I was doing it again I would do something different with the box section in the middle. When she younger and smaller she used it but now she has gotten older she hardly ever uses it.
@@EamonWalshDIY Awesome, except that she's all "grown up now" and doesn't use it. LOLOL!! My dang cat doesn't drink enough water and I saw a video where cats like running water so I bought a fancy "faucet" type waterer and that dork has NEVER used it. He jumps up on the raised dog feeder and waterer and drinks out of that! He has no idea how much Lab slobber he is ingesting. XD
Truly a king commanding his castle, and a fine one at that! I'm building my own cat tower (complete with turrets and battlements), and am so grateful to have your video fur some inspurration. Unfortunately, mine won't include a meow with accompanying bass drop
I think that's the best cat tree I've ever seen. I wasn't sure about the holey box with balls at first. I thought the cat needed to see them or something. But I was proved completely wrong. Your cat sure loved to climb & hang with his claws on it. Definitely the best I've seen & I bet it's easy to repair if some of it gets too torn up over time. It doesn't look too hard to make either. Who knows maybe I'll try it one day. Although I wouldn't be able to walk past it because my little turd would fly out of nowhere to land on my shoulders.
Between a cat-bed and a cat-scratcher, the cats definitely prefer the cat-scratcher. If you can put the bed IN the cat-scratcher, he will like both. But the bed alone, they don't want that, they want the full tower for themselves to feel superior in every way.
Then don’t do it if your not a carpenter my family’s blue collar if your not then don’t whine and complain just go buy one because you probably have all the money to buy one and don’t have to build your own house and furniture
Real men love their pets and all would build something like this (if they had the imagination and skills). About 12 years from now you can DIY a staircase to the bed and one for this tower of joy (DIY Cat Tree demonstrated here).
My favorite parts were when kitty climbed to the top and gave a happy thank you meow and at the end when kitty gave I love you slow blink eyes. And seeing kitty play and enjoy it so much. Kitty is so proud and happy and like he knows you did it for him. 😻 that is one amazing cat tree 😺
When I lost my cat, breaking down and rebuilding the kitty condo was my way of mourning and healing and preparing to adopt again. Some folks will see this as “too much work” but I’m inspired to hold onto this, and maybe I’ll start from scratch next time
My kitty and I watched the video together. She enjoyed it too apparently. Her eyes and ears perked up when she saw your cat. Fantastic job on the cat tree. And you have an adorable 🐈.
This is EPIC! I love this so much! Thank you for sharing. I definitely do not have the skills or the patience to make this whole thing, but my boys would love the box with the holes and Jingle balls hidden underneath! That would be so much fun for them. Thank you again.
That proud meow after he climbed to the top!!! he is so proud about his dad and he should. i wish i could make something like that for my babies..
Can he come make one for me? I spent $80 on one and couldn't figure out how to put it together. 😢

Christa Merritt because it carried your scent. Cats like to be around things that have ur scent. That is why they scratch couches and stuff
That is fantastic! What incredible work! Different from anything I've seen in the pet stores. You've given me some good tips & great inspiration.

I had my doubts when building this. Mine didn't come out perfect ( like the video ) but our cats love it.
Thats the most important thing!! :-)
Congrats I'm sure your cats love you for it 🙂

Between a cat-bed and a cat-scratcher, the cats definitely prefer the cat-scratcher.

But the bed alone, they don't want that, they want the full tower for themselves to feel superior in every way.
