Catry 27.2-in Sisal KItten Tree

We were super excited about this cat tree because it's not too tall and had the curved perch for our little foster kitten. Unfortunately, now that he's strong enough to climb to the top, we are realizing that the tree is not at all sturdy and tips over when he reaches the top! It has fallen on him twice in the last two days. The curved perch is wobbly as well, despite our best efforts to screw it in. The design is wonderful and we were super excited, but this was not a safe option for our kitten.

The tree is well made my problem not giving 5 stars is that the circle beds are very small. My kittens have a hard time sleeping in them. Wish they were a couple inches bigger.

I apparently didn’t read any reviews on this before getting excited about the price! Mine is not wobbly but it does tip over when he goes up to (13 lbs). He thinks it’s great still.

Mittens really likes this tree. She doesn't care to scratch the sisal but loves the carpeted areas for light scratching. Even though we have a larger cat condo, this little one is her go to hang out.

I bought this specifically because my overweight cat (14.5 lbs) cannot jump very high and the dimensions were narrow enough to use in my office nook. I put a 15 lb dumbbell on the bottom to make sure it wouldn't topple over, and she will sit on the lower portion but the top portion is so wobbly that she's afraid to jump up to it. I have placed her on the top and she was totally happy to squeeze her chonky self into a tiny circle to fit, but me having to pick her up to put her on top is not the goal here. It's a construction issue - the two pillars are only connected by flexible carpet, instead of something solid that would act as a support brace. And technically the footprint is too narrow for I bought this specifically because my overweight cat (14.5 lbs) cannot jump very high and the dimensions were narrow enough to use in my office nook.

And technically the footprint is too narrow for the height - I needed a narrow footprint but if you have a heavy or rambunctious cat you need to be ready to add extra weight to keep it from tipping over. These downsides might be fixed by screwing some scrap wood onto it to brace it or perhaps using an L bracket to attach the top platform to a wall, but I haven't tried so I can't say for sure. … more

it’s very cheap. if your cats rlly playful it will most likely fall when they are goofing around. not steady . the material the rope is made of easily comes out when my cat plays or bites with it .

Structurally sound—even for larger cats—but absolutely doesn’t hold up to scratching. Both the “sisal” (doesn’t look to me like sisal rope) section and the carpet section are already showing heavy wear after just a couple of months.

The material is great, however, Since the tower has to be assembled, once it is together it is extremely wobbly and my cat will not go on it. I did everything to make sure it was secure, but there was no way to reinforce the tower.

I'm impressed for the price. Big enough for kitten now. A few layers to play on and she loves the rope.

Very nice tree for the price ,my girls love it ,easy to assemble
