"Hello, I wonder if this tree is used to big cats, and if they come without problems either of 2 tree houses, also would like to know how you can clea

I have 3 big kittys about 20 lbs each and they love this tree. I had a problem with the toys on a string they came right off but it is durable enough that they play rough on it. I clean it with regular soap and water and sometimes a carpet cleaner and a sponge

I have a 15 lb cat and a 13 lb cat that have used this product and it has held up pretty well. They have both used the house and each fits without problem. They are also on the tree at the same time and no problem. To clean, we simply use a vacuum cleaner to lift the hair and dirt particles.

Do not buy this tree. Mine is already broke and it hasn't even been a yr that I bought it. It was extremely unsturdy I have 1 other trees made by Armatkat that are great. They are still holding up with 4 adult cats that live on them all day

I have a 16lb and an 18 lb cat and have had no problems with the cat tree holding up, I also had no trouble putting it together at all. To clean I just use the cat hair remover that looks like a window squeegee cleaner and I've used a cat carpet cleaner and wash cloth. This is my second cat tree from this company over the past couple years (2 for 2 different rooms, I didn't have to replace one) and I plan on buying more for different rooms. I love them and for the price the quality is the best I've found.

Interesting question... We have a cat but I've never had issue to use it. I can only say that I will try it for that situation should it happen.

My two cats who are in the 14-16 lb range and about the same age, love this tree. It was the first cat tree I've purchased and I was not sure if they would like or use it. They use it anytime I am in that room and often when I am not, including the highest perch. It was easy to put together and seems very sturdy, especially since I have it pressed against a corner. I definitely recommend this cat tree.

There is a "door type" of opening on the bottom that is about 5 inches in width at the bottom. The largest circular openings are about 4 to 4 and a half inches in diameter. My cat is an 8 pounder. She actually has never gone inside of the tree, but it has been the absolutely best scratching post we could find. Don't know if the failure to go inside is due to size or not. She does not in general go hiding at all - so it may be a temperament issue, but dont really know

I have one cat that goes on his tree several time a day and the other one only when the mood strikes. I have mine sitting in from of a window so they like to look at the humming birds feeding, I have them on my outside windows, I'm sure that helps some. Also we have squirrels that play on the neighbors roof and catch my cats attention. But maybe it will just take time. You know how cats are. Independent as all get-out. Patience it may take awhile. Kittens would probably adjust to the tree better.

Hi Michelle. No it is not just for kittens. We bought ours for our 2yr old tuxedo. She is 9lbs and loves it! About six months ago we added another cat to our family. They both enjoy it and it's held up pretty well. We've had the tree for 1yr. Cats are now 3yrs old 9lbs and 10mos 7lbs. Both are lively and use the tree often for climbing, sleeping, jumping and running.

I have 4 cats but they don't weigh as much as yours. Each of them is 10-12 pounds. They have fun rough-housing on the tree, there is definately room for all and it is very sturdy. If you built it right it will last.

I have 2 cats (11lbs & 14lbs (a "little overweight for his frame." Neither of them stretch out on any level of it, but the y both always fight to see who can curl up in or sit on the top tier. I may even order another one for a second window to replace the cat tree I bought from another company. This one is MUCH sturdier! Good luck!

I have several cats who are pretty big cats - one that weighs 25 pounds. It is a VERY STURDY cat tree. I have had all three spaces occupied at the same time with no problem - even with the 25 pound cat.

Never too big! I hope you've brought home your kitten, and your cat tree, and both are living in harmony. Maybe you have decided to get kitty a brother or sister by now? They are lots more fun in twos (or threes or fours)...........

Yes, your cat moves from level to level from the inside. A cut out in the floor of each level, allows them to navigate easily. Where As a traditional cat tree relys on your cats agility to jump & scale the structure. I think this would be a good tree for your declawed kitties. (:

This would be fine for one spoiled cat. Like others said, you'll already have a large cat tree in case you decide to enlarge your cat family later on. Go for it. My cats LOVE this tree.

This tree is huge and very sturdy! I think your cats would do great with this one!

It's fairly big I guess, but to be honest, we use two of these for a two cat home. You could probably get by with just one, but you'll be cleaning it more. Our cats seem to have decided that one of the boxes is for number 1 and the other for number 2, and they both use them that way, which is a little weird, but hey, cats.

I have a couple of 14 lb cats and two very active yearlings. They seem to do very well on the tree, it's sturdy and they love it. I also have a nearly blind cat who I have had to rescue a couple of times from the top of the cat tree. He likes the climb too.

It might be ok, and certainly would be a stylish cat tree! If it's for a larger adult cat, it won't work as well as it would for a kitten or a smaller cat; the slope doesn't allow for a large cat to transition up and down easily. I'll say, thought, that this is a very stable piece of furniture, well worth the dollars, and easy to put together!

That's what my cats did. I never really thought about it, because cats can jump enormous heights. It's a great cat tree.
