That's wicked. :) Sorry to be a pain, but how big is the base? (I have a large post in one downstairs room, but with four cats, another in the other room is probably a good idea. I can ask my mum for it for my birthday!)

Tesco on line has one for £41, but I got mine in the store, it is different to the one on line, I got a cat Tunnel 24cm x 27cm for £2 and a pack of 6 cat toys for £2 as well .
The cat tree bass is 37cm Square and it is 110cm high, it is worth a trip down to your local store

Cool! That would fit where I want it for. I'll look on Thursday, and if they have them in I'll let my mum know! ;)

I got a 3 way crinkle tunnel in tesco today for £12   ;D

I also noticed they had a bowl and collar set and the collar had no safety feature and was made of a plastic type material so wouldnt even stretch  >:(

I've noticed their collars are not very "safety aware" too, MM. I looked for some new ones in there near Christmas - they did have a few in the reduced to clear section that were safety release, but they wouldn't have suited my lot. (I assume I'm not the only person that thinks like that....!)

I can not put it into words, I'm like a cat on a hot tin roof, everything is ready for him, look out on Thursday night for the photos, I should be back from picking him up about 8:30

gosh what a bargain and nice post too. I also noticed your radiator bed in the background - how do you get the bedding to stay on the frame. Mine looks very similar to yours but my cats pull it off the frame all the time - one even started sleeping inside the bed (like a sleeping bag)
Title: Re: New Cat Tree
Post by: Parée on January 24, 2008, 17:36:48 PM
The frame fits inside the covering with the opening against the radiator so they cannot get in it, the cover on mine is a tight fit over the frame which clips together. I hope this helps!!

Hi Lisa

Ooooh I might take a detour on the way home from work tomorrow, did they have many?  Whereabouts were they?  (Questions, questions, sorry  :evillaugh:)
