Giant Cat Tree

Realistically, there are only two things that cats love more than feeling worshipped by us humans: climbing and scratching. Unless you’re happy for them to unleash this energy on your beautiful wooden chests and bookcase, do yourself (and your kitten) a favor, and buy a giant cat tree.

A sturdy model is a must, but, if you want them to truly fall in love with it, you must also choose a tree based on your cat’s likes and dislikes:

Do they like to play with a specific material (e.g. rope or fluffy fabric)?Kittens and young cats tend to be more curious and adventurous, so you should look for a stimulating tree that will grow with them and that includes plenty of features. A senior cat will prioritize resting and lounging, so condos and shorter platforms would be a better choice

Ceiling to floor cat tree

At first, you might think that ‘giant cat tree’ and ‘small apartments’ don’t go together. However, you just need to look at it from a different perspective.

If you haven’t got much floor space available, there’s still a handy way of spoiling your cat: choose a thinner but taller ceiling-to-floor model with plenty of layers and platforms in between.

Monochrome giant cat tree

Your new giant cat tree doesn’t have to look completely out of place just because it’s a less traditional item. Sticking to your palette’s colors will even help you complement your decor!

If you’d like to ensure a more delicate result, though, consider sticking to a monochrome model in your primary or secondary color.

Giant cat tree in neutral tones

Another versatile option is to choose a massive cat tree in neutral hues like black, white, gray, or beige.

This will work especially well in traditional interiors, making this tree more similar to your other furniture and decorative pieces while complementing your other items and fixtures.

Huge cat trees in eye catching finishes

As well as the toy of your cat’s nine lifetimes, this new purchase can be an opportunity for you to make a decorative statement.

So, consider choosing an accent color. Or even bolder, perhaps: how about a recognizable pattern like this leopard print?

Minimalist giant cat trees

Yes, a cat tree can be both big and minimalist. Much like other monochrome options, this is a handy compromise if you’re put off by the most traditional toy-style cat trees.

These models rely on a simpler design with clean lines. We actually think they’re more similar to tiered plant stands than to fluffy cat trees.

However, because they include fewer toys and features, we mainly recommend them for less adventurous cats.

Huge cat tree made of wood

Another more elegant and eco-friendly choice consists of wooden cat trees: perfect to match your other finishes and to reinforce your sustainable ethos!

Because the actual wooden platforms won’t offer your cat many opportunities to satisfy their scratching needs, be sure to choose a model that includes a dedicated post.

Giant cat tower with two condos

Reaching 82 inches, this is one of the tallest cat trees we’ve seen, but that’s not even what caught our attention.

The two condos make it a practical choice for households with more than one cat as they’ll never have to fight for that coveted spot.

Choosing a tower with a few additional open platforms will also help keep their playtime varied.

Huge cat trees with slide

As well as open platforms, condos and scratching posts, some giant cat trees can delight your pets with additional features.

For example, you could consider one with a slide. Not only will it provide a fun alternative for your younger cats, but it’ll really make things easier for older ones or cats with mobility issues.

Instead of having to jump, they’ll be able to reach the lowest platform or condo by walking on it.

Massive cat tree with toys

Younger and more playful cats will certainly enjoy an abundance of toys and stimulating features. So, if you have room for one of the largest cat trees that are wider as well as taller, let your kittens go wild!

For example, some giant cat trees come with fuzzy balls, hammocks, ropes, and padded plush perches.

Biggest cat tree to spoil your kittens

If space really is the least of your concerns, you can find even larger cat trees that make the most of both their width and height to create a challenging, obstacle-style playground.

These large cat trees usually involve small ladders and an interesting variety of platforms, but you can also find them with hoops, condos, and hammocks.

A real treat for the most active and curious kittens!

Our advice Buying Guide

There are many designs on the market most of which are affordable for cat owners.

What features to look for in large cat trees?

Large cat trees come with a number of distinct features that make life for your cat fun and more exciting.

Scratching Post - Scratching posts are put in a cat tree to help with exercise. The cats will often pull and scratch against the posts. This will help them stay agile and limber all the time. In addition to this, the scratching posts ensure that the cat doesn’t use your furniture instead.
The Condo - The condo is more like the accommodation. It’s a nice comfy part of the cat tree designed to give the cat a perfect place to rest and relax. It’s also a very nice place for the cat to sleep.
Toys - Despite its many functions, the cat tree is a plaything. It’s something for the cat to have fun with and as such, most cat tree designs will come with one or two toys carefully attached. The toys range from one tree to another but they will work for any cat.
The Levels - Most cats love to climb and they can’t do so in an average home. Large cat trees change this massively. They give the cats simple steps to jump over and over as if they were somewhere in a forest or a park.

What are large cat trees made of?

The large cat trees are made using several materials. One common option used is sisal. Sisal offers a coarse, more natural fiber and can be a great addition to the scratching posts. Normal carpeting may also be used. The carpet is put on the flat surfaces including the condo and the steps. However, wood is the most common material used for cat trees and accomplishes a number of goals. While it’s comfy enough for a cat to relax in, it’s also strong for scratching posts and steps too. Wooden cat trees are however more expensive. In case you have a tight budget, you may consider a similar design made using corrugated cardboard.

How to match a cat tree with your furniture style?

Cat trees can be custom made from scratch if you want. In case you’re finding it hard to buy a readymade option that meets your design needs, you can have the entire thing build for you. The cat trees are generally placed inside the home. In that case, you can expect that they will have an effect on your existing décor. In order to correct this, think of the trees as a new furniture piece. It has to be compatible with your décor for it to make sense.

Large cat trees offer cats a nice place to play and relax. It’s the ideal natural environment for an indoor pet.
