 Premium Cat Furniture Puts the Fun in Your Feline’s Day
It is a well-known rule that cats have "nine lives" and can almost always land on their feet, even if it is from five feet or two stories up. Cats are naturally curious and enjoy exploring their surroundings. Cat exploration can include climbing, leaping, and jumping from one piece of furniture to the next. However, if the cat does not have adequate toys and places to scratch, they may end up destroying couches, tables, and wood doorways, especially if they are not declawed. Because of this, cats need to be able to have toys and furniture of their own that they can use however they like. In addition, because cats are such nimble creatures, they really enjoy the exercise and imagination that premium cat furniture brings.

The choices, types, and styles that are available for premium cat furniture make shopping a fun experience. Below are some of the options to take into consideration when deciding what type of cat furniture to buy. It is also important to remember to set up a range ahead of time of how much you are willing to spend.

Carpets and Colors

Most premium cat furniture is carpeted, because this makes it easy for the cat to climb onto. It also provides a comfortable sleeping and lounging area for the cat. The colors and styles of carpet can vary, and it is recommended to choose a carpet color that matches the overall decor and design of the room where the furniture will be placed. The more it blends in, the more natural it will look. Of course, some ardent cat lovers choose to dedicate one room in their house to their pet, which may then lend itself to finding brighter colors.

Posts

While the majority of any premium cat furniture is carpeted, some styles have the posts of the furniture covered in cardboard or twine. Besides providing a steady climbing texture, this also allows a place for the cat to claw and scratch, especially if they aren't declawed. These scratching posts help keep the felines' claws rounded and not as sharp.

Beds/Tunnels

A fun component of some premium cat furniture is the tunnel/bed aspect. This is usually tube-shaped and can fit one cat at a time. This tunnel usually has one large opening, but may be open on both ends so the cat can climb in from either direction and look out while in the tunnel/bed.

Platforms

These are usually flat, curved, or round areas where the cat can perch or lay. Some platforms have slightly raised walls so the cat can curl up to nap without having to worry about falling off the side. In a lot of premium cat furniture styles, a platform is the highest point and has the tallest post.

Variations

There are many different sizes, heights, and styles of premium cat furniture available. Some styles have two or three posts, while some may only have one. In addition, some styles may have different combinations of tunnels/beds and platforms. For example, one style may have a curved platform on its highest post and another round platform below it, while other styles may have two tunnels and three platforms, all at varying heights.

Toys Attached

Some styles have toys or balls attached, either dangling by strings, or coming out from the post or side by a string. This adds another element of fun for cats, especially when they are feeling playful and frisky and do not have anything else to entertain them. This piece of premium cat furniture would be a great addition for a cat that is home alone during the day.
