A cat tree that fits both of you.

Picture your cat beside the sofa, with room to scratch and a resting place that fits the way they sleep. Then picture yourself opening the nearby drawer, walking past and lifting out the cushion to clean it. A useful choice makes room for both routines.

Start with the room. Check the resting space.

Compare the widest part of the tree with the space you can spare, then compare the usable bed with a place your cat already enjoys. Check the route between levels and the exact model instructions. A large-cat label alone cannot answer those questions.

Will it fit beside your sofa?

Check the full footprint, the resting surface and the space between levels. Bring those measurements to the comparison, along with the room you can spare.
