3-D

Today I made a furry quilt in three-dimensions. Okay, it's really the cat tree that has sat in its box by the front door for a very long time.

Molly quickly figured out that she could use it as a gateway to the top of the bookshelves. She also found it to be an excellent platform for her piggy-back rides. Given the platforms and hidey-holes are relatively small, I suspect it will also be a Buddy-free zone. I will be securing it to the wall in case he tries, though.

The instructions say to not let the cats use it unattended. I read the instructions to Molly and I'm sure she will comply.

That looks like a great addition to your sewing space. I have one in mine that is wonderful for holding fabric while the cats lounge on my ironing board and cutting mat, also steal my chair every time I get up. Mine, too, has a hidey hole. Also good for aging fabric the hubby doesn't know I've purchased. The best part? The ironing board didn't come with such foolish instructions so the cats are free to wander across it as I sleep and launch themselves from it, leaving it tilting at an odd angle against the wall for me to set right in the morning, so proper lounging can commence!

Whoa, Molly...I have cat-tree envy. Smitty

Heck, I'd want to climb that thing myself...
Anchoring it is a really good idea - I can see Buddy using it for a combination thrill ride and catapult. 8)

Yeah, you’d better anchor it. Ours isn’t that tall, we don’t have a pony climbing it, and still Bruce had to bolt a post inside one of the uprights on the “kids’ “ tree to steady it. Now it sits in their room (aka the guest bedroom) where Alfalfa lounges in the penthouse and Darla reclines on the daybed.

That is one tall cat tree!!! I know another little cat pretty close to home who would love one of these giants!

I really enjoy reading your blog. I love cats and talk to/about my cats the same way you do. You have a lot of quilting books on your selves--any favorites that you can share?
