The cat tree is brilliant. I have two boisterous boy cats and they love it. I had researched a lot as I know some cat trees are not very sturdy but this one is. Very well made . It was also very easy to put together. I like how it has scratching posts as well as places for them to lie down on. The carpeted areas are very soft and lovely colour of grey. Very pleased with this and would definitely recommend even for bigger older cats too!
