The cat tree is perfect for the small size bedroom my cats occupy most of the time. I wanted something to keep them happy.  The tree is positioned next to a window.  I was considering buying a cat perch, but now I don't need one. They have lots of room to climb.  They sleep on the perches, stretch, scratch and play. Love the little balls they can bat. Two broke off, but they are easily replaced.  They have so much fun with the balls and climbing. Perfect for our 2 cats - mother and her 5 mo. old son. When they've had enough of their canine companions, they can climb the tree.
