Catty Stacks Modular Cat Condos, Sky Blue

This is a sturdy, cardboard cube that folds together using a simple tab system.

Each side has a pre-cut hole; some are smaller and offset, while others are larger and centered. The large holes are scored and can be cut even larger still with a craft knife. Our "big boned", portly cat has no trouble fitting through the larger holes, while the smaller holes provide more box surface for standing and resting.

The outside of the cube is a solid color, while the inside is, well, cardboard colored.

The cubes are not laminated or coated in any way. I initially worried that the cats would scratch on them and tear them up because of this, but we've had them for two months and they still look brand new.

It occurs to me that the unlaminated cardboard would make these super easy to decorate with craft paint, markers, crayons, or colored pencils. I could see this being a great rainy day project for a young pet owner, or even a service project for a group of kids to decorate and donate to their local cat shelter. Or, how about having local artists decorate cubes to auction off as an animal shelter fundraiser? I didn't really think of them as a "blank canvas" until I put them together at home.

The cubes clip to one another using metal binder clips (included). This allows them to be arranged and rearranged many different ways. I love how lightweight they are; very easy to move as needed.

Our cats adore having the cubes connected in a long, low "tunnel" down the hallway; they run across the top or through the middle every time they travel up and down the hall. They stash toys in there and love to leap out to surprise one another and unsuspecting people. It has turned a space we weren't using for anything into a cat playground!

When we've stacked the cubes in pyramid-type structures, response has been varied. Our youngest cat climbs all over them, but the senior cat seems to lack the coordination to climb up through the holes and a little unsure about the whole thing. Still, this would be brilliant for kittens and athletic cats.

The only things keeping this from being a 5-star review is the cost. It is, afterall, a cardboard box and a handful of binder clips. They are surprisingly sturdy and are holding up exceptionally well, but could not be cleaned easily in the event of a cat-related mess of some sort. If a cat picks the wrong place to furball (or worse) we'll likely have to let the whole cube go. If the price were a little lower, that would be less of a concern.

Still, compared to the price of those ugly and equally hard-to-clean carpet and playwood cat towers at the pet store, these seem like a good pick. They're made in the USA, by a small company with cats at heart. They're modern and understated so people don't mind having them around, with a clever modular design that makes them great fun for the cats. No regrets on this purchase!

The Calico loves them!! Simple and well made. Very sturdy, not your average "cardboard". They can be clipped together in different configurations. Designed by someone who understands cats.

My cats adore cardboard boxes so I thought I'd try these. They were a bit confusing to put together, but it wasn't too bad. They are very sturdy and have held up to two cats, 11lbs and 14lbs. Cons would be they get dirty rather easily and difficult to clean, but it hasn't been a big issue. I got five of these, and they were easy to stack. My cats have a large cat condo, but they prefer these and are on them most of the time. The holes in the corners are perfect for sticking out paws while playing with the cat on top. I'm unsure if they'd use them if I only had one cat since they mostly use them for play so I'd probably recommend these to multiple cat homes.

Was a gift for my brother's two kittens. They love it and used it immediately. Will replace them

as the cats get their use of them.

These are OK. I bought three but haven't stacked them as my cats are very strong. I have two on the floor now that they use to hide/sleep in.

I'm going to use them as cat beds. Other than that, they're not strong enough for my cats. Also, to make the holes bigger (they are perforated to two sizes), the cats don't have enough footing to climb on them if stacked.
