Cat Perches

The Pei Pod Pet Bed is an absolutely deluxe design for the cat who loves to lounge in luxury. These beds for cats come in the shape of the egg and are a pastel mint color. The product is made of high-density polyethylene and is recyclable. So not only will you be investing in a bed that is durable and easily cleaned, you will also be doing your part to stay environmentally conscious. It is also easily to clean the entire pod, requiring only a wet cloth and some soap of your choosing. This is one of the few cat products out there that requires little maintenance and is rather basic but will fulfill your little friend's needs.

This egg pet bed comes with a cute yellow cushion with a white polka dot pattern to add a bit of funk to the look of it. This cushion can be washed in a machine without problem as long as the gentle cycle option is used and the pillow is air dried rather than machine dried. Like the bed itself, the pillow is also recyclable. Cats up to 18 pounds, as well as small dogs, can fit into the Pei Pod Pet Bed. Its overall design makes this bed one piece of unique cat furniture that serves its function well without being too gaudy.

The company providing this product reminds users not to place the bed on any elevated surface. This bed is designed to be placed on the floor due to its shape, so do not purchase it if you're looking for cat perches instead.
 

Has anyone ever met a cat who didn't like window perches? For a long time, cat window perches have been available to give your lovely pet visual access to what's going on outside. Cats are very curious creatures, and buying a perch can provide them hours of entertainment as they sit mesmerized by birds flying from tree to tree and children playing in yards. This is incredibly helpful if you have an indoor cat. You want your buddy to be safe inside, but you don't want to deprive him of all the good things nature has to offer.

Many of the perches available also double as a cat window bed. This is great because instead of buying a perch and a cat bed, you can spend money on one that can be used as both. K&H offers a few different types of these 2-for-1 deals in various colors to best match your living space - like the K&H Kitty Sill Deluxe Bolster Cat Bed, 14-Inch by 24-Inch, Tan Kitty Print . Even if you don't buy a model specifically made to function as a bed as well, it's likely that if your perch is carpeted, you'll catch your cat napping on it. It may not seem like the most comfortable spot to us, but it must have something going for it if our cats insist on sleeping there!

Some cat climbing trees can also serve as window perches. Many of them feature designs with carpeted shelves at one foot intervals. If you set these trees next to the window, your cat will actually be able to lounge on a lower shelf or even climb up for a better view. SmartCat has a multi-level climber that is sure to catch your cat's attention - SmartCat Multi-Level Cat Climber .
 

Wow, this is a cat scratching tree with quite the twist! Available in black or white, the Sebastian Modern Cat Tree will fool any guest into thinking it's either a regular piece of furniture or even an aesthetically pleasing decoration that matches the most modern of homes. This design features six distinct levels in the form of boxes artistically placed on top of each other at different spots for a more interesting, compelling look.

The levels featured in this cat tree can be used for climbing and playing, and the first one consists of a sisal material that is perfect for scratching. The second and fourth levels have carpet on them and could even be used as comfortable cat window perches to allow your cat a wonderful view. The second level doubles as a hiding place with an entrance hole in it for your furry friend. This hole is 7.5 x 8 inches so that even larger cats can fit inside it and won't feel left out.

The Sebastian Modern Cat Tree uses a non-toxic, long-lasting paint that is safe for your pets and has a glossy look to it, adding a little bit of oomph to an already intriguing design. The product itself weighs 72.8 pounds so it's much sturdier than your average cat tree. Your cat could jump up to one of the levels and not have to worry about it falling over. In addition, the tree is easy to assemble and comes complete with instructions. This is one piece of cozy cat furniture that is sure to make even human jealous.
 

The Sophia Wall Mounted Cat Tree in Black is a great addition to any collection of cat climbing trees you might have, or if you haven't started a collection yet, this is the perfect one to go with. This tree comes in a set of two shelves that you can mount on a wall wherever you prefer. If you want, you can purchase another set of shelves and really come up with a great configuration that is likely to keep your cat occupied for hours at a time.

This product features carpet on each of the shelves that is perfect for your cat to perch on. One of the shelves includes a hole that is 7.5 x 8 inches so that your cat can climb through it no matter how big he or she is. The other shelf's box can be used for storage or decorations like house plants, which would look great with this sleek design. Instead of wasting money on cat window perches, you could mount these shelves near a window to do the trick.

Luckily, the shelves attach to the wall using brackets so the whole product is fairly easy to get in working shape. All that you need to start is a Phillip's head screwdriver, drill, hammer, and pencil, none of which are very hard to acquire. The shelves themselves can support up to 25 pounds so larger cats are not a problem. With all the possible configurations of this tree, this is a better buy than most cat playpens.

****ADOPTED***

About two months ago, I rescued a beautiful Ragdoll male from the beach at Heckscher Park on Long Island. I believe someone dumped him there since it is a remote location and for days, if not weeks, the cat did not stray from that one spot. It was as though he was waiting for someone to return to get him. But no one ever did.

I call him Sandy, and yes, he got his name before the superstorm. I am unsure of his age but he’s very big which may be deceiving because of his long, luxurious coat and mane. He has claws but does not use them when I handle him. As a matter of fact, though I brought a humane trap for the rescue operation, it was unnecessary because he let me, a stranger, carry him a very far distance to my car with no resistance. When I pick him up it truly is like holding a ragdoll!

Because I have 8 cats already and have recently incurred huge vet bills for two of them, I have been financially unable to bring him to the vet for an exam at this time so I am unsure of his approximate age or if he is neutered. However, I have treated him with flea/tick protection meds twice (once each month). Due to my many cats, Sandy refuses to stay inside for very long so he has been living outside in the woods behind my complex. While my cats have been tolerant of him, Sandy is not comfortable with them, but he’s making progress. I try to bring him in every night for a few hours for a meal and a nap, and I leave food and water outside for him every day.

He is an absolute mush -- very lovable and easily handled. He has a spectacular coat, beautiful markings and deep blue eyes. This photo does not do him justice.

I don't want to see him spend the winter outdoors even though he thinks he’s King of the Jungle as he climbs trees and perches himself for a morning of bird-watching. It really is a sight to see.

Ideally, I think he would prefer a home with a yard since being outside seems very important to him. But he also appears very comfortable indoors. He is a gem and he deserves a loving home.

Update 12/11/12 - Sandy went to the vet yesterday for a thorough exam. Thankfully, he tested negative for feline aids and feline leukemia. He also received his FVRCP, Rabies and Feline Leukemia vaccinations.
 
It was determined that Sandy is in fact a neutered male and his age is estimated at around 3 years old.   He was scanned for a microchip but does not have one. He weighed in at 12.6 lbs. and my vet said he's very fit. Sandy also got a treatment of Revolution for cats.   So he's in fantastic shape and ready to find his forever home.

Age: estimated at around 3 years old
Sex: Male
Fee: $200 (to be donated to cat rescue)
Location: Bohemia, NY

This is a guest post by Erica Johnson

Hello, my name is Erica Johnson and I am a cat behaviorist. I would like to share some of my favorite items with you! They are all kitty tested and approved, and of course, safe!  I have taken the guesswork out of these items, and provided links directly to the items online.  There may be several of one or two places, that’s just because I know and trust them!  I’ve even done some of the price comparing, to find out where you’ll get the most for your money!

1. Cozy Cat Comforters. Starting at $25. These comforters are spectacular! I had to buy one for each cat, and my small-medium dog! My pets wanted one of their very own, they would not share.  My oldest cat is the toughest critic known to man!  She instantly went to the comforter and laid down.  Now, if she finds something that sweet little heart desires, I would pay close to anything just to see her happy!  I've never seen them so possessive over something! They love them so much; they choose sleeping on the comforter instead of my bed! The shop also makes a larger item, like a table runner for the foot of the bed or back of the couch! I don't want to imagine life without these! Small-medium size dogs love them too. I got my Chihuahua one!   The shops’ owner makes you feel as though you are royalty!  She is the most attentive seller I have had the pleasure of doing business with.  She can also do custom orders if you don’t find the comforter that is purr-fect for you!  
2. Grow a surprise! Grow your own cat grass. They love it! Kits are sold at pet stores that contain various safe species of cat grass, so you can grow kitty his or her, own little garden! They love to chew it and it’s a natural hairball remedy!
3. Da Bird - The best wand toy ever - $9.99. This wand toy must be magic! I have never seen a cat that could resist!  It has to be the most incredibly lifelike bird feathers on the end of the very long, thin metal-like wand. It will be the best $8 you ever spend on a cat toy!
4. CatIt Designs - Water Fountain - $34.06 Do you have a cat that likes to have the faucet turned on for him/her to drink? It is very common for a cat to want to drink water as it drips from a faucet. Kitties like cool, fresh, running water. This fountain was the best investment I EVER made. It fulfills all these kitty wants. The water runs constantly down over a large dome into a dish that is constantly running and filtering all the water and keeping it cool (we live in Texas, we need it!), while providing different area to drink from!
5. Petstages Cheese Chase - $9.88  This super fun circular track comes with a ball for kitty to chase ‘round and ‘round!  That’s not all!  There is a furry friend growing up in the center for kitty to bat and chew!  My kitty has had his since he was born, and it’s still one of his favorites! 
6. Temptations cat treats Starting at 1.99 Any Pet Store -I LOVE Temptations cat treats! They are just one calorie per treat and have a plethora of amazing flavors. My favorite is catnip, and it seems to be the cats’ favorite too!
7. Cat tree. I found the best deal at Petsmart.  It is Online Only though, this is for a 74” tree but they have a variety of beautiful cat furniture! This one is $179.99. This is truly a great investment in your cats’ behavior. Cats do not like to be on the floor, and as a behaviorist, this is one of the first places the client and I go. My first thought is always to provide a way for kitty to get up off the floor. A cat tree also gives your cat a piece of furniture of his own; cats do realize and have feelings about their own furniture in the home. Place the tree in front of a window so they can watch the birds outside, and you've also just given kitty his own television!
8. Window Perch. Drs Foster and Smith. This perch allows kitty to safely observe the outdoors, without all of the risk and danger.  Naps may be taken while lying in the sun after a long, ever so hard day of bird watching!

Meowwy Christmas!!
