Frequently asked questions
Is it good for kittens and senior cats?
Yes. The built-in 2-step ladder lets tiny kittens and less agile older cats reach the condo safely, and the lower 135cm height suits cats who aren't big climbers.
Can I remove the toy or the itch-rub brush?
They're fixed in place so they don't come loose during rough play, giving your cat a permanent grooming and play spot.
Is it stable enough for big or energetic cats?
This tower stands 135cm tall with a 12mm base board and 7cm hemp-wrapped posts, and is engineered to support up to 20kg. Its compact height keeps the centre of gravity low. For extra peace of mind with very active cats, place it against a wall or in a corner, and re-tighten the bolts a week after assembly.
How much space does it need?
The footprint is 40 x 60cm and the tower is 135cm tall. Leave a little clearance around it so your cat can jump on and off safely, and position it near a window if you can, cats love a view.
How many cats can use it?
It's ideal for 1–2 cats. If your cats squabble over the top spot, a second perch at a similar height elsewhere in the room can help keep the peace.
My cat isn't using the new tower. What can I do?
Most cats need a few days. Put the tower where your cat already likes to hang out, ideally by a window, rub catnip or silvervine on the posts, scatter treats on the platforms and play with a wand toy around it.
How do I clean it?
Wipe the E1-grade MDF with a wood-look finish surfaces with a damp cloth and dry them straight away, and vacuum or brush the fabric cushions. Avoid soaking the boards, and keep the tower away from splashing water bowls or fountains.
How long does assembly take?
It arrives flat-packed with tools and step-by-step instructions, and takes around 30 minutes to put together. The assembled tower weighs 12.8kg, so it's easiest to build it in the room where it will live.
Will the scratching posts shed fibres?
A little loose fibre is normal once your cat starts scratching, it means the posts are doing their job. Trim any long strands with scissors so they don't get swallowed.
