I’ve heard that cats in the wild climb up to a high vantage point to survey their surroundings and locate possible food sources. Here’s a picture of me hunting for food from a high place.


Seriously, you know that I’m a natural cat. Even though I live inside and I’m not wild, I prefer things as close to natural as possible. None of this fancy, schmancy glittery stuff for me. That’s why I like these natural-looking cat trees I found.

The cat trees with the leaves are great. I could really feel like the mighty hunter in one of these. I’d climb up there and peer out through the leaves, and no one would ever know I was there. I bet my person would like them, too, because they look like a nice house plant, but she wouldn’t have to water them.

Even though those cat climbers are made with real tree branches and look very realistic, it’s true that the leaves aren’t real. Real leaves just wouldn’t last, so these are made of silk. So I really like the all-natural cedar cat tree, too. It’s made from a real cedar tree and solid wood platforms, with no chemicals, preservatives, or synthetic carpeting. It looks very serene and peaceful; it would be purrfect for my zen meditations.

Indoor cats really need a cat tree to climb. It satisfies their need to be up high, and it provides some much-needed exercise to ward off obesity. What’s that you say? I should talk? Hey, I use my cat tree as much as you use that treadmill in the corner. I just don’t like to get too high off the ground, because that places me farther away from the food. Here’s a picture of my favorite cat tree.
