Feline Furniture Co. Deluxe Cat Condo

When the UPS driver first handed me the package, I thought there must be some mistake. The box resting in my arms only weighed about 12 pounds and measured about 17×20. Surely a Deluxe Kitty Condo couldn’t be inside, could it?

I opened the box. An assortment of carpeted tubes and several different types of plastic connectors met my eye. Dumping the contents on the floor, I found the instructions and started reading. Just then, my husband Mike walked into the room. Mike (an extreme left-brained individual who never reads instructions and puts items together in a matter of minutes) waved away the proffered instructions, and set to work. Twenty minutes later with no tools required, the condo was fully assembled and sitting on our living room floor.

The unit looked promising. Built on a concept similar to Tinker Toys, the unit locks together and can grow upwards and/or outwards, starting with a basic coffee-table shaped base. Additional pieces provided snap together easily and cleanly. The finished product has an additional second level. Three sturdy hammocks are provided, that can be hung in your choice of four locations. Once fully-assembled the unit can be easily moved by one person.

I called my kitty testers and four came on a run. I moved the completed kitty condo under the window and in a matter of minutes there were four cats on it. Two of my older males had curled up to sleep in the hammocks, impervious to the fact that my two kittens, Taz and Squirrel, were playing leapfrog over their sleeping forms.

I was impressed with the design of the condo. The Feline Furniture Company Deluxe Cat Condo has many features going for it. The biggest plus of this unit, once assembled, would be the lightweight construction making it easy to move about the room or house. Easy to snap apart and make into individual beds, this unit would be perfect for cat breeders and rescuers. I could see it as just the right solution for a mom cat that needs to get away from her kittens, yet still maintain an eye on them while she rests on one of the beds well above their reach. In the winter, these hammock beds would be ideal to raise a cat off the cold floor and enfold him in a warm fleecy pouch. When traveling with your cat, take one of these units with you. Taken apart these beds will fit in any suitcase taking up relatively little space, or slide under the seat, or in the trunk of your car.

Another positive feature would be how quickly you can disassemble the unit to replace a shredded post once it gets some attention from busy claws. Instead of throwing the whole unit out as irreplaceable, twist off the leg and buy a new one for pennies on the dollar. Then you have a brand new unit again! No more sweeping up those annoying carpet fibers from the rug either, as the indoor-outdoor carpeting provided proves quite durable.

You can order additional modular, space-age components and snap together various designs. The Super Cat Hotel, English Catsel, or the Kitty Hawk is some of the many themes offered by Playland Deluxe Kitty Condos. Add a Cozy Fur Cat Condo for the ultimate in comfort for your cat. The fur condo, specially designed to slip easily in place on any unit makes a very cozy faux fur cave.

In a Go as You Grow, feature, the Feline Furniture Company makes available various size condos designed specifically for the growing stages of kittens or to accommodate the smaller cat breeds. Keeping in mind the various sizes of all cats, the company also provides jumbo models to accommodate those larger breeds.

Recently I acquired three orphaned, four-week old kittens. I put the kittens in the cat room upstairs, and took apart the one unit making it into two separate stand-alone beds. Immediately the three kittens were racing up and down the posts, leaping from one hammock to the next in true kitty ecstasy. At night, I placed a pet heating pad underneath the hammock, and Winkin, Blinkin and Nodd spent a quiet night on top, resting in fleecy warm comfort.

Utilizing space age technology and innovative design, the Feline Furniture Company Deluxe Condo accommodates all the needs for the modern-day cat owner. A combination exercise gym; for true feline aerobic workouts, scratching post to keep restless paws busy on safe turf and a comfortable faux fur bed where a now tired out kitty can rest, this Deluxe Condo holds all the answers. The neutral color blends in well with any decor, making this perfect for any home or apartment. If you are a modern-day cat owner on the go, this modular cat furniture fits your lifestyle. The Deluxe Condo, though it arrives to your home packed in a small box, delivers an enormous amount of satisfaction for you and your cat!
