Product Information

No matter the size of the tree or the size of the cat, a cat tree needs to be stable. Some cats can be boisterous while jumping on and off the tree, and scratching the posts can push the tree perilously close to toppling. Some cats love to explore vertically as well as horizontally, while some are quite happy with a simple post and bed. If yours is an adventurous cat, look for one with as many layers or levels as you can reasonably fit.

What I Love About It: This cat tree makes a safe and stable place for your older cat to enjoy napping and resting. There’s also the ladder that connects the first platform to the floor and can help older cats get more out of this tree.As cats age, they’re more likely to have arthritis and other joint issues that can make big jumps a bit uncomfortable. Ramps and ladders can allow cats to get into their tree without jumping and it’s something we looked for in our list of the best cat trees for older cats. What I Love About It:This cat tree does a little bit of everything and it does it really well. But my favorite is the supersized platform and extra-cozy cat cubbies! Having a large cat doesn’t necessarily mean that you have to fill every room of the house with giant cat trees and scratching posts, or that you have to spend a fortune to find a suitable place for your cat to laze around. It is difficult to judge the stability of a cat tree, but key factors include the overall weight and the size of the base relative to the structure itself. Look for those trees that are heavy and wide, especially if you are looking for a tall cat tree. Alternatively, some do come with fixings that can be used to attach the tree to a wall and ensure greater stability.

In the case of top, cushioned platforms, you may find your cat enjoys spending a lot of time up there, watching the world from an elevated vantage point. Again, ensure that the size is appropriate for your cat and that the structure is stable enough for your cat to perch on top. Cats need an appropriate area to scratch- and there’s really no getting around that.That’s because scratching does a lot more than just help keep kitty claws under control, it’s also a way for your cat to identify their territory. While not every cat tree needs to have a huge scratching area, your cat does need somewhere to scratch so always consider what options your cat already has and find a cat tree that makes sense within your current setup. How To Find The Perfect Placement For Your Cat Tree Ladders – Ladders do provide access to upper levels but they are also fun for some cats to climb. If a cat tree does have a ladder, ensure it is angled and that the ladder rungs are covered in sisal. The angle of the ladder makes it the perfect spot for scratching and if it is only covered in fabric, it will be easily destroyed.

What I Wish It Had: It makes a great option for older and disabled cats and I don’t find any flaws to this cat tree. Closing ThoughtsIf you’re looking for a cat tree for large cats, it means that the tree itself is going to be large. Trees can measure up to nearly 2 metres in height, although some measure under a metre. Consider the height of your ceilings, and don’t forget that your cat will need to be able to stand up on the top platform. The best cat trees for large cats in the UK can be expensive, and the selection is somewhat limited. Fortunately, there are a few brands that make some solid, stable, and fulfilling cat trees that are suitable for cats of all sizes and breeds. Beds and platforms are also common additions to cat trees. They can be on any of the levels, and some include plush cushions so your cat can get snug and warm. Even if your cat doesn’t weigh a lot, if it is a tall cat that likes to stretch out, you will need a large platform, or it won’t be able to stretch out comfortably. Stability & Strength However, big cats can struggle with some of the trees on the market because they simply aren’t designed for the large frame, long legs, and extra weight of breeds like the Maine Coon. When looking for the best cat tree for large cats, you should consider the following features to ensure you get one that is right for your cat, and you. Size

RHRQuality specialises in producing cat trees, scratching posts, and other items for extra-large breeds and they do it well. The RHRQuality Cat Tree for Large Cats XXL Royal Cat Palace is a giant of a tree designed for giant cats, but it does have a similarly large price tag attached to it. If you’re looking for a giant cat tree, RHRQuality really is one of the first names to consider. The RHRQuality Cat Tree Cat Penthouse has clearly been designed for large breeds like Maine Coons. First off, it stands nearly 2 metres from the ground, which means that it will take up a lot of height in any room, and if you have low ceilings and a tall cat, it might actually be a struggle for your feline friend to sit on the top perch. Scratching Posts – Cats not only enjoy scratching but they use it as a means of relieving stress, maintaining their claws, and playing. If you don’t provide surfaces that your cat is allowed to scratch, it increases the likelihood that they will scratch surfaces they aren’t supposed to. Cat trees naturally have columns in place, used for providing structure and support, and these are usually covered in a sisal rope. Sisal is a tough fabric, but it won’t usually cause injury to your cat so it is a good choice. It will last longer than fabric. The more scratching columns and posts on a cat tree, the better. The tree has two large condos with sizable openings and viewing windows. There’s a hanging rope for play, ladders for climbing, two cushioned platforms, a separate platform, and two beds, as well as multiple surfaces for scratching. I’m a BIG fan of the Go Pet Club brand. They consistently make some of the largest trees but with surprisingly budget-friendly pricing and this 62-inch cat tree is no exception.Those platforms really are big with the top platform measuring 19.6″ by 19.6″! That’s almost double the size of many cat tree platforms and that’s a big reason why this cat tree also tops as one of the best cat trees for Maine Coons and big cats.
