MOVING ON UP

In his continuing saga to use up scrap wood from the house across the street that is being torn down, Big Bore decided to make a cat tower for Critter and Fluffy. His architectural design kept getting bigger and grander, however, until it almost didn't fit into the back porch.

After he got it all together, I painted it with leftover porch paint that matches the curtains and then added a bit of house art. (The little squares on the tower read: CAT HOUSE) He tacked on some carpet scraps for three sides and the steps. Voila!

Fluffy tends to hide out in the bottom floor, while Critter has claimed the penthouse apartment since she's bold enough to scale the stairs.

As time goes on, I suspect we'll be adding hanging toys and a tray of grass to put on the "patio." Maybe even a kitty zip line to the litter boxes. Who knows.

Now, on to the next project....

Oh, T, I don't imagine most people would want something this huge. It's just put together with old scraps of wood--not the finest of material, but it was sort of fun to do.
