Zombii!

Fancy treehouse BTW. My sisters been thinking of commissioning one from me.

That's her!

From you? You make them? And you haven't made one for the boy ๐Ÿ˜ญ

[-] weeeeum@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Well, I'm a woodworker, so I'm sure I could bang something together. Just need to think about the upholstery and padding.

[-] Sasnak 3 points 2 days ago

That would be so cool! If you end up making him one, you haveta show me. Don't forget to wrap the sisal rope around the posts for scratching

[-] weeeeum@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

In might not bother with sctaching post, since he never uses them. He much prefers cardboard scratchers or a beater carpet we let him tear apart.

[-] Sasnak 2 points 1 day ago

Fair. Bitty likes to lay in her nest and scratch the post right next to it. I haveta figure out how to get her a new tower soon. Hers is coming apart

[-] weeeeum@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

If its the wood you might be able to sink a woodscrew into a post section. Drive it most of the way with a drill, and tighten the rest by hand. Make sure it goes in all the way so nobody gets their claws caught on it

See, the posts seem to be made of cardboard, so I think they're just weakening from being moved and living through the house fire. It was given to us by someone who's cat ran away, so it was already preowned. I was thinking about getting a 2x4 and anchoring it in the wood platforms from bottom to top and putting something heavy in the base just for support and balance

Hmm I'm not sure how to fix it then. I bet it would stiffen up a lot if it was screwed to the wall, even with just drywall anchors

[-] Sasnak 1 points 15 hours ago

Yeah, but we have a month to month rental, so I don't think that's an option

My parents have a similar house in their cats' scratching post, but they never go in! Does yours like that space?

[-] Sasnak 4 points 2 days ago

That's actually the first time Zombii went in! We were excited. Little Bitty likes for us to put her toys in the one at the top so she can throw them and then cry until we toss them back in

[-] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

Oh cool, so it seems like not just ours are weirded out by that house :D

And that with the toys is just classical cat behavior!

[-] Sasnak 2 points 2 days ago

Yeah. They love to sit on top of them, tho!

Bitty loves to play fetch. Whether we throw it for her, or she throws it for us xD
