As cat parents, we understand the importance of providing great exercise and lounging area for our cat is mentioned in every cats book. And one way to accomplish this is by getting the best cat tower for these cat climbers!

Made out of 100% woven fabrics, each wooden cube is covered with a heavy weight ribbed natural cotton fabric making it sturdy and durable for cat scratching and digging.
Bowsers products are pre-washed and color-safe for easy cat use and care. All five cubes are easy to clean by just using a clean damp cloth. This cat tower is available in Cool Hues color combination of Bark, Cloud, River, Leaf, and Clay - which can work perfectly as a cat scratching furniture in any room!
Today we received the Lo from Square Cat Habitat. I am so freakin' excited because I have wanted to work closely with Square Cat Habitat for some time - so I glad we get to do our first product review with them!
Meet Lo (Charlie already did).
Dimensions: 1"H x 22.75"W x 8.5"D
Charlie and Trigg both scratched on it immediately! Love it.
The Lo is a good-looking cat scratcher that is perfect for a horizontal scratcher (some cats like to scratch horizontally, some vertically and some both).
There are rubber feet to help prevent sliding (see video to see what I mean). I love that the insert is recessed into the base, so that the edges are not exposed - simple, clean and chique.
Not only is this good looking but there are also many different insert colors and textures to choose from for the Square Cat Habitat Lo. Gotta love options!
We were sent their laminated fiberboard which sells for $45!
Cat climbers also sometimes called cat trees are a welcome addition to any home with a feline friend. These cat trees offer a place for your Ragdoll to relax, to sharpen claws, and to play whenever they want. A cat tree can offer all of these things, but cat trees are often considered eye sores and are hidden away. Hiding them will no longer be necessary with these cool cat trees from a few unique companies.
The Refined Feline has an amazing cat tree with a sisal cat scratching post, several perches that are carpeted and can hold up to 50 pounds, a cubby box that is carpeted at the bottom and a weight to keep it from tipping over. The carpet can be removed for easy cleaning if necessary. If interested you can buy your own at The Refined Feline for $369.99.
If you have more of an artistic side then the Whisker Studio may be your choice for a cool cat tree for your Blue Lynx Mitted Ragdoll. The elaborate cat trees provided on the site are both artistic and functional in nature. These cat climbers will keep your Ragdoll entertained and make your room look fashionable at the same time. Find your very own at Whisker Studio for varying prices as pieces range from $4 to $52 dollars.
A final shop that has drawn attention is that of Modern Cat Designs which offers a tall cat condo that will house your Ragdoll to sleep or play. The rounded cubbies allow your cat to hide, scratch, and climb whenever he or she pleases. Find your perfect design at Modern Cat Designs for $197.00.

Every living creature, human or animal, deserves a home they can call their own. Cat Pods has created a sanctuary for your Ragdoll that serves the purpose of cat climbers, cat playpens, cat climbing trees, and sisal cat scratching posts all in one.
The Cat Pod is a stand alone home and play area for your Ragdoll. The Cat Pod has a nine inch opening for your furry friend to hide and crawl through and holes through the top for curious paws to poke and scratch through. The inside and outside are perfect to keep claws in check.
The Cat Pod allows for cats to hide, sleep, climb, and claw without concern. Made of 100% recyclable materials the Cat Pod is built to last with material that resembles wood more than cardboard. At nine pounds this pod will stay put when your cat is scratching away or just playing hide and go seek. Even the rounded design attracts cats as the contours are appealing to those of the feline persuasion. The final touch of a little catnip sprinkled on top makes this Cat Pod completely irresistible to your four legged friend.
Cats are climbers by nature. Some cat climbers are plain and stand out when placed in a main room in which your cat is likely to use it. Some cat gyms offer a great place for your cat to get some exercise, but do not offer a place for your cat to just relax. Get the best of all worlds for your Ragdoll with these cool cat trees.
Urban Pet Haus offers unique cat trees and perches in wave designs. Created to look as much like art as a place for the cat to hang out, these items are a creative way to entertain your feline friend while decorating your house. Purchase your own for between $99.99 and $149.99 from Urban Pet Haus.
Another cat product manufacturer that has taken creativity to new levels is Square Cat Habitat that offers sisal cat scratching posts that are made into perches or that mimic the look of photo frames. The cat trees available on this site are made of fiberboard and can have scratching pads and hanging toys added for extra fun. The cat trees are between $250 and $450 dollars depending on the material that is chosen.

Do you own furniture from one of these cool cat tree sites? How do you rate its performance?
Coming home to shredded curtains, shower curtains, furniture, and even paintings, can be horribly upsetting. Are you looking for a great alternative to these problems?
Cats are climbers by nature. Why not offer your cat a safe, fun, and furniture friendly alternative to climbing your curtains?
With the Cat's Trapeze, that is available in two and three pillow sizes, your Bicolor Ragdoll will have a safe place to climb and hang out when he or she needs to relax. The lowest level serves as a hammock for when your cat needs a comfy place to nap while each of the other levels contains a pillow that is perfect for hanging, climbing, or resting.
The Cat's Trapeze is made of 100% unbleached cotton, can be machine washed when the inner pillows are removed, and comes with mounting hardware and a sisal rope for easy assembly. While the pillows do not come prestuffed, throw pillows or old towels work very well to offer your Blue Lynx Mitted Ragdoll a perfect place to hang out.
The Cat's Trapeze varies in size from 3.5 to 4.5 feet without the attached hammock which can be added if desired. The trapeze hangs from the ceiling for easy access for your Ragdoll friend.
Looking for cat climbers can be a daunting task. Every cat owner wants cat climbing trees that are safe and secure, that look good in a room, and that offer their feline friend a great place to rest, relax, play, and scratch. The Cat Power Tower offers all those details.
The Cat Power Tower offers two sisal cat scratching posts, one on either side with dual platforms on which your furry friend can lie down for a nap or stay in waiting, ready to pounce. A section built just to hide toys and treats adds extra stimulation for your cat to stay active and entertained.
So whether your cat is a scratcher that needs to sharpen his claws on something other than your furniture or a curios george who needs the diversion of hidey holes, this cat tower will provide. Even if your cat just needs a place to relax and nap, but loves being up high this tower will work. The bonus for the Cat Power Tower is that a build in carousel toy rotates when your cat bats at it to keep him or her entertained. All parts are completely replaceable if your cat simply enjoys the tower so much it wears out.
I have a Blue Lynx Mitted Ragdoll named Monkey. Her name was not intended to be Monkey but after her first day with us when she climber every piece of furniture, all the curtains, and a few legs the name just sort of stuck. Monkey is a true climber at heart and we try to be as accommodating as possible but she seems to get bored with the basic cat climbers that we have bought in the past.
I started searching Cat Furniture Products and came across the Cat Power Tower. Monkey loves all the added extras, especially the hiding box that allows for treats and small toys or balls to be hidden in the space. She also enjoys jumping from platform to platform and napping on top when she gets around to slowing down.
Monkey scratches the sisal cat scratching posts with vigor and then attaches herself to the top platform to watch the toy that can be batted around in a circle. The toy has had to be replaced several times because Monkey is so aggressive with it, but replacement was as easy as a click.
Cat climbers are a necessity for every home that has a four legged friend of the feline persuasion. In fact without one then wall, drapes, furniture, and often legs become the target for a cat's natural instinct to climb. Sisal cat scratching posts are great and serve the need to scratch and climb to some degree, but they offer no real entertainment for the cat.
The Cat Power Tower - Cat Furniture Tower meets almost every need your Ragdoll may have. The Cat Power Tower offers a place to lie down, a place to play, an attached toy, and a two sided sisal cat scratching post. If your feline can resist the hidey holes that can offer hidden treats or toys then a platform exists that is perfect for a mid morning nap. And if after a quick snooze the urge to play is unbearable then an attached carousel toy is on top and allows for hours of batting fun.
Do you have an active feline friend who needs an area that they can romp, play, climb and scratch? If you answered yes to any part of that question then the Cat Power Tower - Modern Cat Tower is perfect. Cat Gyms are great, but this Cat Power Tower offers everything in one structure. A cat tree house offers a place for the cat to climb and hide, but the Cat Power Tower offers a place to hide toys and treats, a place to lie, and a toy that rotates for your Ragdoll's entertainment.
Hide cat snacks in the hiding box and watch as your bicolor Ragdoll scrambles and reaches trying to gather his prize. Perfect as cat climbers or as scratching posts, this Cat Power Tower Modern Cat Tower will keep your furry family member content for hours on end.
All pieces can be replaced if your furry friend wears out a section or if a second Power Tower is needed for a new family addition. Great as fun and as exercise this Modern Cat Tower looks great and meets your cat's curiosity needs.
Multiple cat homes have unique litter box needs. I started with a Blue Lynx Mitted Ragdoll and one litter box. Shortly after I adopted a bicolor Ragdoll from a shelter and due to a move I also inherited by daughter's Blue Lynx Mitted Ragdoll. I also inherited my daughters ct climbers, cat window bed, and feather cat toys but that is another story for another day. As these new additions overtook my home I started noticing a huge problem. My previously litter trained feline friend suddenly decided that a spot on the carpet was her favorite. She refused to use the litter box unless it was perfectly clean. This was hard with three cats in the same home so I purchased another little plastic tray to have two litter boxes in the house, but the amount of litter I was using was ridiculous.
One day while reading one of my many cat books I ran across an ad for a self cleaning box. I started researching and found that Scoop Free Cat Litter Boxes were great for multiple cat homes and I would not have to clean the litter box every hour to make sure my cat would use it like she was trained. Best of all the litter did not have to be replaced nearly as often, every 30 days on average. I now have two self cleaning ScoopFree Cat Litter Boxes, though I really only need one, but my cats deserve a little pampering.
Oh no! Out of litter again. A trip to the store, lugging a heavy container of litter, and then emptying the smelly mess out of the old plastic litter box. This does not sound like a pleasant way to spend an evening, but many feline owners have experienced this exact situation. Whether the owner of a Blue Lynx Mitted Ragdoll or a Siamese, litter is a necessity for all indoor cats, unless of course toilet training is an option. There are sites on which you can order everything online for your cat, such as discount cat toys, cat climbers, and even litter, but unless it is reputable site like Amazon.com you can never be sure about the quality of product that will be received.
If you do want the best for your feline friend then help out the owner. The best way to help yourself and other feline friendly enthusiasts is with a ScoopFree self cleaning litter box that does most of the dirty work for them. Scoop Free Litter Box offers a self cleaning litter box that your Ragdoll will love. Equipped with a special compartment for holding the waste that is easily emptied, this litter box doesn't require a litter change for up to 30 days.
I own a number of cat related products. I have cat climbers, a cat window bed, and even two cat playpens. My Ragdoll cats are definitely of a pampered nature and that led me to believe that I should be pampered a bit too. My way of being pampered is to not have to scoop dirty litter any longer. Littermaid Elite Mega Automatic Litter Box made all my dreams come true.
I love my new touch free Littermaid Elite because it is self cleaning. The cats enjoy being able to go to a clean box every time and I think they even like being able to watch as the metal rake cleans away their fresh deposit. The best part is I never come in contact with litter. Once the disposable compartment is full I simply clear it away. The box smells fresh, much fresher than when I used a traditional box that I could not always clean right away.
I know a self cleaning litter box may seem like an unnecessary luxury but the benefits are unlimited. Aside from not having to use an old fashioned litter scoop the self cleaning Littermaid box keeps the air cleaner, keeps your cats cleaner, and can improve overall cat health and happiness because of the continually clean box. No one wants to use a dirty bathroom and that includes your cat.

Littermaid Elite is an automatic self-cleaning litter box. For cat climbers and cats who just love lounging about on cat window perches, this litter box comes with a steel rake that can be turned on after your cat leaves the box.
The entire process of cleaning the box takes 10 minutes. The Littermaid Elite has motion sensors that can monitor each time your cat uses it. After your cat leaves the box, that's when it will start to rake through the litter and dump it in a plastic litter bin attached on the box. The plastic container is easy to remove for throwing of its contents.
The Littermaid Elite also has carbon filters to keep the box from becoming smelly. It has an ionic air cleaner that disinfects the area of the litter box as well. This cat box can be used by 2 or more cats.
I really never know that carpet scratching posts were a problem until I started doing this website.
Of course, I always thought they were uglier than sin, but I didn't think they were bad, per say
Here are the top 5 reasons I prefer sisal cat scratching posts over carpet ones:
Sisal is not a common material found throughout your house and therefore you probably don't have furniture made out of sisal or have sisal on your stairs. Carpet on the other hand is probably on your stairs and is probably on your floor. So as far as the cat is concerned, the carpet on your scratching post and the carpet on your stairs is the same and both fair game.
Carpet is just ugly - stop using it.
Cat climbing trees with sisal allow cats to climb more easily, not to mention that sisal seems to last about 3 times as long as carpet.
Carpet scratching posts are probably one of the big reasons why people declaw cats and also one of the reasons they get rid of them - because they are taught destructive behavior. If I could eliminate carpet scratching posts I would.
They are UGLY - yes, again!!

We have a 4 your old male Ragdoll that has become territorial and we have tried everything. He has been wonderful up until a couple months ago...reason...I have had triplets and they are now 18 months old and are mobile and he likes to lay on the floor etc and doesn't move when they come running around. Now they don't step on him but we believe he is threatened in a way and that is why he is on the defense all the time. We have tried everything thinking maybe he was uncomfortable etc but nothing seems to work. :((( We thought maybe he was sick but that was also ruled out. We are hoping to find him a GREAT home with NO children so he can sleep in peace, where ever and whenever he wants. We are located in south Texas. If anyone is interested I will send pictures and all info. Thank you!
Sonni is a very smart cat who loves to snuggle next to you when you are lounging on the couch or in bed. Every morning he gets a little closer and purrs his little heart out. However, this is very hard to think about, but we need to find him a good home with no small children. Sonni is a 4 year old Ragdoll that has become territorial...reason?... We have tried everything however we came to the conclusion that he just doesn't like kids. :((( We have ruled out all other possibilities. We are not sure why but because of it we need to find a safe, good home for him with NO small children. If interested you can email me at carrie0300@gmail.com. I will send pictures and answer any questions you might have.
