Very cool! I like the ay you put alternating shelves o the walls. I did this also but a bit differently...same concept. used wood, batting and fleece or sherpa...here are some pics...added two poles for climbing...lots of vertical space. The pics don't contain the second poll yet and I will be getting rid of the cat tree/condo and replacing with a new one.

Paige, what did you cover the climbing poles with? Is it carpet?

It is sisal, evelyn. I got it at home depot, where it comes in 50 ft rolls and then dyed it using Blue food dye. You have to soak the sisal before using and dying as it has toxic chemical additives.

Please provide more info on the length of time to soak and in what for the sisal. We Will be using it when we build Echo's tree.

Will do, Laura...just need to ask my friends who helped me since they did the soaking and then let dry in their garage. Once soaked, it takes a few days to dry...as least mine did because the climbing poles are about 7 feet tall...

Laura it takes about 2 days for the sisal to dry...sisal is very heavy and dense...

Sorry it has taken so long to post, this tree is really pretty. It comes very well packaged, easy to put the branches on, and they could be easily exchanged. The quality of the materials is top notch. Only the old sleepy cat uses it now, I will have to see how it holds up with harder play, in a month, countdown has begun!!
