Why Designer Cat Trees are the Ultimate Accessory
If you are new to cat ownership and are looking for items you need for the new furry love in your life, then look no further than a designer Cat Tree. Cat Trees are structures for cats to play, exercise, hide and stretch without the need to be outside. They can vary in height and comfort, with each cat needing different requirements in their structures depending on their personality.
Often, Cat Trees can take up quite a bit of space in your home and aren’t the most pleasant objects to look at. However, luxury Cat Trees are designed to blend into your home while providing hours of entertainment for your feline friend.
The Benefits of Designer Cat Trees
Exercise: Many cats remain indoors for the duration of their nine lives which can restrict their movements or ability to explore in their innate way. Designer Cat Trees allow for cats to jump, climb, and stretch, keeping your cat physically healthy. This item also prevents your cats and kittens from doing this on your own furniture which can cause damage.
Relieve Stress: Designer Cat Trees have enclosed spaces to allow your cats to hide and feel safe if they’re stressed. It’s their space and they know nothing will bother them while they’re inside. By keeping your kitten or cat active with the designer Cat Tree, it will also in turn relieve stress, much like exercise does for humans.
Quality: Designer Cat Trees are made from quality products that ensure durability for many years to come. Cheaper Cat Trees, although magnificent in size, can breakdown quickly with the continuous clawing and climbing from cats. Not to mention cheaper materials can hold odour. This not only keeps leaving you out of pocket, but it’s so annoying to clean up and get rid of!
Interior Design: Designer Cat Trees can blend into any room and don’t stand out like a big eye sore in the corner of the room. This will help you feel like your home is less cluttered and can sometimes be a talking piece for your guests.
What to look for in Designer Cat Trees
Materials: You want materials that are easy to clean, don’t hold odour and come in neutral colours. These include different varieties of sustainable wood such as plywood and Ash Veneer.
Height: Cats are naturally curious about their surroundings which means they often like to climb to have a birds-eye view of the room, or at least see above most of the furniture. Designer Cat Trees should have at least one platform to observe from.
Comfort: Every cat needs its down time, a space to get away from everything for a little while. A designer Cat Tree should provide at least one area where your cat can curl up while feeling safe and protected.
Which Designer Cat Tree is right for your cat
One Level Cat Trees
One level designer Cat Trees such as the Torre Cat Tree Sml by MiaCara standing at 70cm tall are best for smaller cats or owners who don’t have much furniture within the room. This designer Cat Tree allows cats to indulge in their natural desire to climb and perch in an elevated position where they feel safe and secure without taking up too much space in a room.

Two Level Cat Trees
Designer Cat Trees with two levels such as the Torre Cat Tree Lge by MiaCara standing at 110cm tall are best for larger cats or owners with more than one furry friend.
