Cat Trees & Condos (Wall-Mounted)

A cat condo is a structure made for cats to do the things they’re naturally inclined to do in the wild, like scratch, climb, play, and nap. A downside to many cat trees is that they can often take up floor space and are typically made without your home’s decor in mind. 

We were focused on this issue when coming up with a line of unique cat trees that are fastened on the wall to create wall cat trees. Cats love to be up high; it increases their space in the apartment or house and helps keep them active.

There really isn’t a difference between the two words, at least that we have found. We use both terms in our listings so that our furniture options will come up for pet parents searching for either term.

Our cat playgrounds are designed to accommodate cats of all sizes. We keep both space and functionality in mind when we’re designing cat trees. Some of the options work better than others, and these are our suggestions for the best cat condos for those large tabbys:

• The Juggernaut Cat Condo
• Cat Bridges
• The Overlook Cat Tree
• Cat Shelves
• The Climb Cat Condo

It’s always possible that your cat could fall from any cat wall furniture. Luckily, cats are incredibly resilient to falling and over the last ten years we haven’t heard of a case where a cat fell and was seriously injured. In the wild, cats have a wide variety of enrichment options, like climbing trees or hunting, that they don’t typically have indoors. Climbing and scratching are important and natural behaviors for cats and providing your cat with an indoor cat playground is an excellent outlet for them to replicate those activities.

Please keep in mind that you know your cat best and it’s important to keep that in mind when deciding how high to mount the cat wall playgound. If your cat is elderly or has health issues that limit their movements or balance, then we highly suggest installing furniture only high enough to where you’re comfortable with them jumping down from.

Not at all! Clean any of the bamboo parts without removing them from the wall by wiping with a damp cloth with a slightly diluted soap/water mixture. The Cat Hammocks can be easily removed and washed by hand or on a gentle cycle with cold water. To dry and remove wrinkles, we’ve found that reattaching the fabric to the cat tree and letting it dry stretched out works best. Please do not put the canvas sections in the dryer; they have a tendency to shrink.

If you notice that any portion of your cat playground is wobbly, 90% of the time it’s due to a mounting plank not being installed into a wall stud. This is very important for all the furniture other than our cat shelves, which function fine as long as one side is in a stud and the other utilizes drywall anchors. Please note that we include these drywall anchors for our shelves, but typically do not with the cat condos, because those are designed to fit either a 16” stud spacing or 24” stud spacing, depending on which is selected.  

If you a mounting plank is “bouncy,” as in the front end moves up and down, this is typically caused by the bottom screw not being installed with the plank flush to the wall. Simply remove the bottom screw, pull the plank downward to make it flush to the wall, and then re-install the screw with the plank held into place. 

If you have any other issues or concerns, we’re eager to help solve those, so please don’t hesitate to chat us on the site and contact us explaining the issue. Pictures always help us! So please include those in your message. Thanks!

It’s always best to give your cat time to acclimate to their cat tree wall. We don’t recommend forcing your cat onto anything. It’s best to persuade them with positive reinforcements like treats, catnip, and petting them once they’re up. If they have a negative experience on the furniture, there’s a better chance of them associating that location with the experience and they’ll be more likely to avoid the spot in the future.
