We just had our basement finished and needed a way for our kitty to safely climb to the basement window so he could enjoy the view of the yard. Our carpenter planned to construct some shelves on the walls; however, our friend who loves your products wisely suggested a cat tree from your company. She assured us it would be sturdy, practical, and easy to assemble. In addition, it would come quickly. Wow! all of this proved true. We are absolutely delighted with this product. Our cat loves it. He really enjoys all the levels and naps in the "tree house" as we call it. (I cut his favorite fleece blanket to fit this area to make him feel more at home.) The cat tree is attractive and worth every penny. Many thanks for a great product. My husband and I very highly recommend this cat tree.
