Hello how may I help you? I have a cat question. ok go ahead I live in an apartment. How much room does my cat need? you need about 7x8 square feet I don't quite understand that measurement? you need a space of 7 feet by 8 feet Ah ok, the square feet thing confused me, 7 feet by 8 feet much better! i apologize. are you clear now? yes, I now just have to think of a scratching post. there's one on sale
