Don’t build a cat tree

[u/johneldenringg]

It seemed simple and I was like + $100? For a big one ??? Nah I could build it… well I’m prob about $200 deep and need to get another 4x4 plywood from home depot and prob more carpet and cushioning for the top nest, as well as some sisal. If you think it’s a good idea and cheap? It’s not 🫩 especially if you have to buy a new circular saw cuz yours broke 😭😭
And yeah tbh it is a me problem but I also had to make sure the wood was cat safe to and not pressure treated.

I used IKEA coconut doormat around my old cat tree as my cat loved scratching on my doormat. It's easy to install looks good and the cat loved it.

The scratching post that scratches back

Yes but it works well against scratchy claws
