For weeks, my two large cats, Mittens and Whiskers, have been eyeing my furniture with a distinctly predatory glint in their eyes. Knowing the inevitable damage to my carefully chosen sofas, I decided it was time for a serious upgrade to their living quarters. Enter the Modern Cat Tree Tower CATTREEHC02. This impressive structure promised a haven of scratching posts, comfy napping spots, and a stylish addition to my home. After several weeks of rigorous testing (by my feline overlords, of course), I’m ready to share my honest review.

The CATTREEHC02 boasts an undeniably unique design. The natural water hyacinth construction gives it a sophisticated, almost bohemian vibe. The multiple levels offer a variety of lounging and climbing options. Two generously sized baskets provide ample space for naps, and the sisal scratching posts are substantial and robust. The inclusion of two machine-washable cushions is a huge plus for ease of cleaning.

The construction is sturdy; even my hefty Maine Coon, Mittens, hasn’t managed to topple it (and she’s tried!). The thick posts (8cm diameter) offer excellent stability, and the overall weight (16kg) ensures it remains firmly planted on the floor.

From the moment I assembled the cat tree (a surprisingly straightforward process), Mittens and Whiskers were captivated. They immediately began exploring every nook and cranny, testing the strength of each post with impressive gusto. The scratching posts have already proven their worth, showing only minimal wear and tear despite considerable use. The cat baskets are evidently comfortable, as both cats frequently nap in them, often vying for space. The overall design has encouraged playful interaction between the cats. I haven’t seen them this engaged in play in months!

Pros:

• Sturdy and stable construction
• High-quality natural materials
• Multiple levels for climbing and lounging
• Large, comfortable sleeping baskets
• Durable scratching posts
• Machine-washable cushions
• Stylish and aesthetically pleasing design

Cons:

• Assembly may be slightly time-consuming for some.
• The relatively high price point may be a barrier for some buyers.

Overall, I’m incredibly pleased with the Modern Cat Tree Tower CATTREEHC02. It has completely transformed my cats’ play and resting habits, providing them with a dedicated space for climbing, scratching, and napping. The combination of stylish design, durable materials, and functional features makes this a worthwhile investment for any cat owner, especially those with larger or multiple cats. While the price is higher than some budget options, the quality and longevity make it a worthy purchase. I wholeheartedly recommend the CATTREEHC02.
