Built a cat condo for Oscar!!

Didnt feel like spending $160 or more on a decent kitty condo from the store, so with the help of a friend, decided to build one myself! Cost about $40 total in wood and materials at home depot.

He used to jump on my range and fridge and be where he wasnt supposed to, now he barely leaves his condo!!

oh wow!!! Good job!!
First off this is the first time Ive seen Oscar and he's such a cutie!!! love love orange kitties, even better when theyre floofy

As for the condo....really really good job. Im looking into buying one too...one of the ones I like (that isnt cheaply made, very steady) is over 300 dollars ..umm ya no. lol I just cant justify it. Unfortunately I never really built anything/have any clue how to :sad:

Lettin the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier than puttin it back in.

Most of the stuff people worry about ain't gonna happen anyway.
