Exactly what I want to do for my cat. No more flimsy kitty condos that seem to be designed for miniature cats! Well done on both the construction and the video.

For a diy that looks way more professionally done than a lot of the cat trees out there. Awesome job!

Charlie is too cute! Don't be surprised if he starts needing a friend. As our little guy got older he needed another cat even though he had been neutered. That was 15 years and a bunch of friends ago. He's thinking now to be careful what ya wish for. He was our first rescue and none of the others have been alone. Kittens are very entertaining and even entertain each other.

Well that was a couple of hundred dollars saved, well done. Congrats

Absolutely fantastic! Far better and stronger than anything in the shops. Well done….Charlie must be so proud of his clever Mum 😻

Looks awesome and very sturdy and Charlie is adorable.

Wow!! I'm so impressed! You did a fantastic job. Charlie certainly has a talented "mom." ❤

I just ran across this. Love the cute cat tree. You make it look so easy. Charley break was fun

Well thought out cat tree & excellent tutorial!

Proper build! Nice work!

I love your design. Simple and classy and everything that deserves a thumb-up

Love this!! Thank you for sharing

Well done! Thank you for sharing.

Great job!

We've just adopted a couple of cats and I've been wanting to make a new book shelf cubby situation for awhile. You've just inspired me to turn the top into a cosy window moment with tree attachment for our climber! Thank you :D Off to go do some planning!

Great presentation of your work. Thanks so much!

Great job! You're very talented! Charlie is adorable😻

Great job, well done. Charlie is a very lucky kitty!

This turned out awesome!! Good job!!

Beautiful!!

You rock! That was amazing 👏

I love this my daughter is getting a kitten in a weeks time so I’m going to make one hope it comes out like yours , Thanks for posting this 👍

Doubble cute ! ....Appreciate your awesome sharing video 😊

I am soooo going to make this for my new kitten TY!! Charlie is so cute!

So cool. Great job!😊

What a great project 👍🏻🤩😀😃❤️❤️❤️

Bravo! it is really nice. Husband has to be very proud :D Thanks for sharing.

Wow . . . AMAZING! Inspiring!

Wow came out great

Beautiful design and build. I'm making a cat tree as part of a 'pet projects' project. I'm definitely taking some of your idea for this. And ... Charlie is adorable!

Thanks for sharing such awesome work well done and it also pulls on creativity of what's in your head that you may not always know that's there that has pulled on my creativity in my own self thank you very much

I love your design. Exactly what I’m looking for. Love the hinge hack too! Hi from Alberta, Canada!

You did a marvelous job on it. I love to build things also and wish I would had watched your video before buying. We probably have enough wood down stairs to build about 4 or 5 of them now I wished I'd seen this. Thank you for sharing😻😸

This is INCREDIBLE!!!

Nice Job! Lucky Charley.

Amazing

Wow great job luv it

We will now enjoy a short break for Charlie cuteness?!? Loved it! So cute!

This is also exactly what I’m looking to make for my cats Frank and George, no doubt they will spend years playing happily on/in this, thank you for sharing your incredible build 🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛

Brilliant!

Nice design and nicely done (both for the project and the video).

Nice work and your nails are still beautifully manicured!

It was so cute at the end your cat is so adorable

Fantastic!

Great job.

What an utterly adorable and cute fur baby ! You will certainly have to be on your toes as their servant. I'm pretty sure if any mischief occurs, we all know who the culprit will be. Great job on the cat tree, I think it's gonna get used and abused quite a lot.

Nice job. I have a good bit of extra wood and mdf from a CNC table that I no longer use. I didn't know what I was saving it for, but now I do! Was just shopping AZ prime day for cat tree deals and they all look so flimsy for stupid prices. Will be building my own soon!

That is amazing! What a great job you did! I have a fear of power tools, but I love that other women don’t! You go!!! Making us girls look strong, smart and capable! Yay, you! -Nancy

Просто супер! Спасибо за идею и наглядное пособие👌👌🐾❣️

Wonderful project. I made a homemade tall cat tree by taking an old wicker table that I had that was not too pretty anymore for the living room and attached a short and cheap cat tree to it. For extra stability since the wicker is so light and the cat tree can tend to be heavy, I got a decorative fabric cubby to put on the bottom shelf of the wicker table and put large heavy beach rocks at the bottom and her toys and sunrises on top. And in the bottom cubby in the cat tree that she never really used cuz it’s so tiny (and she doesn’t like those kinds of tight spaces anyway) I filled a burlap bag with heavy rocks and that puppy don’t move now. I put it in front of her favorite window and next to a homemade climbing/nap wall I made from an old twin mattress I was going to toss. I just covered the mattress with a nice grippy upholstery fabric. And since the climbing wall is in the hallway I don’t even need to attach it to the wall if she topples it over cuz it is still easy for her to cling to as it falls to hit the opposing wall and then she has plenty of ways to hop down either to her cat tree or a living room arm chair right by the hallway entrance. Or she cries for me to push it back in place as she rides it back in place. Those two pieces get the most use compared to any other cat furniture I’ve purchased. Except for the perfect cat scratching post I found at a feed store. It’s super tall and has the heavy wide base. It comes with me anytime we travel cuz it takes up little space. I put it in the car last and nudge it between the luggage and the base against the rear seat door behind the driver so no windows get blocked. Thanks for inspiring me with your kitty condo build. I’m sure your baby will love it for years to come

Just got a cat and was looking for a cat tree but the ones I want are like $200+. This looks so much better and a lot cheaper to make. Thank you.

Subscribed, good luck in your youtube endeavors.

Nice work

I am New to your channel young lady you have done a wonderful job Thanks for sharing your video Merry Christmas to all❤ 🙏👍💚💛💚💚❤️✨

I wish you a wonderful day and a great mood.👍😻😀🌸💞

Hermoso trabajo 😻😻😻

Excellent. I😍 Charlie

I leaned a old mattress and box springs against the wall. The cats love climbing on it.

Absolutely wonderful job! Charlie is sooooo cute! 😻 Would you mind sharing the dimensions again?

We bought a nice cat tree. When our guys got to adult size it started to wobble, took it apart and the posts were hollow flimsy plastic under the rope and carpet. It wasn't PVC , it was some hollow thin plastic tubes with threaded holes for the bolts that warped easily. I want to make my own. This is a great video thank you.

@shesmakingsomething UPDATE. Well after 16 months. The cat tree has only had 1 issue. And that was simple exchange of some carpet. Make sure you have a hood staple gun.

I've done one before and here's some tip i can give you : - Use staples to fix the sisal on the post, that way it can be replaced when your cat has destroyed it. - Do pre-hole before screwing, that way you will avoid crack in the plank.

hi would it be possible for you to post all measurements I've try to write them down but I'm getting a bit confused please and thank you

Amazing project, I was just watching some videos because I want to make my cat tree for my little furry love ones 😅 and my wallet it’s almost empty 😢😢😢. You inspire me to do something pretty for my cats. Thank you ❤

You should pre-drill holes for screws to avoid splitting the wood

Charlie 🥰🥰🥰

What supplies did you need to make this cat tree? Also, great job on the cat tree, it looks awsome!

Хорошие животные , все вместе дружно живут.👍👍👍🐕🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛

This is definitely the nicest one I have found on UKposts, I just wish you were a little more clear with your measurements. Kind of hard to follow a tutorial video when you don't have all the measurements to go off of 😕

Other than my holding my breath every time I saw you drilling near your bare feet, you did a wonderful job. Another woodworking tip: When using glue for any wood project, don’t just lay down lines of it. You want to spread it like you would with paint. You can use a brush or anything that will allow you to spread it on the surface. The other materials will hold better, dry smoother and be less subject to shifting with change in humidity and house temperature. Also, periodically check that your staples are still in place because wood swells and contracts with changes in humidity which can cause the staples to loosen over time. Trust me when I tell you that you don’t want your kitty to get hold of a loose staple to play with and possibly get it stuck in their mouth or paw.

I built one a few years ago but now it’s time to make another, when I originally built it I didn’t take into account that I would one day have a few more cats and 1 would be 15 lbs so yeah… it’s almost kaput

Do you have measurements for this tree? I’d like to make it. Thanks

2:26 You're binding your blade, that's why it's harder at the end of the cut. Instead of cutting between your supports, cut to the side of them.

👏🏻👏🏻 😸

How much time do you have in this? This is impressive! You did a phenomenal job. My husband and I are talking about making our own cat tree/ condo versus buying one, because I want more than any store bought ones have to offer. 😆 I'm trying to get ideas and learn from others before jumping in! You really did amazing though, and great job putting the video together!

Did you ever attach the teaser toy? I am constructing my own after watching this for inspo and I’m not sure how best to go about it. I thought about doing a small 1/2 pilot hole, feeding some of the sting in and then got glueing but it doesn’t feel like that’s strong enough

I'd use glue on the post and screws . Those get so loose . I seen the particle board blows out when screwed . I suggest using OSB instead . Looks awesome . Did you say keep him out of trouble? lol He's a cat, good luck with that. ha ha ha .He is a cutie.

One of my biggest pet peeves is when the wife wants to make something but the husband does all the power-tooling. I appreciate that you did 99.7% of it yourself! AND WHAT A GREAT CAT TREE!! HELLO CHARLIE! 🎉

Hola 🖐️🖐️, buen proyecto. Una consulta: qué tipo de madera utilizas ??? 🤔 Y que grosor tienen las maderas que usas ???. Eng: Hello 🖐️🖐️ good project. One question: what kind of wood do you use? 🤔 And how thick are the woods you use?

Please add measurements for all the parts

How did you decide the design? I have misc cat tower parts because I took 2 apart, recovered it with crushed velvet and shaggy fabric to match my couch, but now am stuck on how I should put it all together to make 1 big tower. Did you use a CAD program to test different ideas or just sketched it out? It looks great.

Hii thank you for the video it is very helpful! I was just wondering what type of carpet you used to wrap the wood? 😊

How many meters of carpet did you have to use to cover everything?

I wish I had the tools to make my kittens a tower

Salam Zəhmət olmasa ölçü yaza bilərsiz?

How much it would it cost me in begging you to make me one of those tree houses 🏘️ for my two cats when is one is a 14 15 lb

Where did you find the 2 x 48" round post made in Viet Nam. I can't find it in my area.

how much did it weigh?

That top platform will most definitely not hold out when the cat grows bigger.

What cat weight is safe for this design?

Genial solo necesito una carpinteria😂

Where did you find the dowel?

Your building skills are way better than your drawing skills! LOL Great job!

So how much did you spend total?

From a professional woodworker: NEVER use ANY tool while barefoot!! Go ahead, ask me why. 😊And then ask me about my personal experience.

What breed of cat is Charlie?

What type of glue did you use to attach the carpets to the board?

Uhmm random question. Are you Wickedy by any chance? You sure sound just like her.😅

I need to make something very sturdy soon. I got two 18lb cats and those pressed paper cat trees don't hold for too long.

charlie needs to be checked for tiny pieces of wood in his fur now!
