The Dude Loves His Cat Tree

The Dude loves his cat tree. Brendel does as well. This tree is in the living room and is about six feet tall. It has different levels and a cubby hole they get in and hide and sleep. Snapped this photo while he was chilling and watching commercials on television. This is where the Dude sleeps a lot and snores, like an echo chamber! They also have a nice view of the deck and yard. And they do a lot of bird watching from here. Funny to watch the Dude run and jump on this tree and go all the way to the top. He thinks he is the king of the cat tree. And I suppose he is for now. Brendel is asleep in another tree in her room. Yes she has a bedroom. The life of a cat is pretty awesome.

It amazes me the agility of a cat to climb and jump, with little to no fear whatsoever! They love to be up high, for some reason or another:) Dude and Brendel are enjoying life to its' fullest!

@CarolDM My friend Leann, her cat would bounce across the roof, of her Dad's garage! He fell off once, but it didn't phase 'Tom' in the least bit lol

@CarolDM Dude looks very comfortable up there. So that is one way to describe it. I bought a smaller one and called it a playhouse without windows and curtains, but, Sophie does not like it at all. Mine has a hammock. I did a post on it before and shared a picture. Wow, you have two of them. Can we see the one Brendel likes?

That is one killer cat tree..Nico feels deprived. His is only about 4 feet. He has a second one, but has decided it is too "woobly" to suit him.

You should see him get up there, the tree shakes he is so fast, right up to the top every time.

@CarolDM honestly is there any place other than the top that the dude should be? ps looks like the watermark is a counter weight!

@DocAndersen I suppose he is right where he belongs. The watermark is a little too big, oh well it will balance the tree for the Dude.

He seems to be enjoying himself. Do your cats ever go outside and climb a real tree?

They cannot go outside, they were declawed (front paws) when I adopted them. They must stay indoors to be safe.

@CarolDM I have a tall old radio cabinet by the window near my front door. One of my feline crew's favorite spots for a nap.

Dude is King! Doodles used to rip Kuma from the top of his kitty gym, which looked so much like that. He liked to be king of his and hers, too. Beautiful photo!

@CarolDM Lol! Doodles was double the weight of Kuma. One swipe, and she was down a level. She took a lot of abuse from him.
