This is my second Archie & Oscar cat tree purchase and it's perfect for smaller areas. My other cat tree is five years old and still looks new, after heavy use by multiple cats. The faux fleece covering is easy to vacuum and shampoo. I do not recommend the faux fur covering, as it doesn't wear well and is much harder to keep clean. These cat trees are sturdy and well made, they look great, are very affordable, and my cats love them!!
