3. Assembly Instructions
While specific step-by-step diagrams are not provided, the cat tree is designed for straightforward assembly. Please follow the general guidelines below:
- Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging and verify against the included parts list (not provided in this manual, refer to product packaging).
- Identify Base: Start by identifying the largest, thickest base platform. This forms the foundation of your cat tree.
- Attach Lower Posts: Securely screw the lowest scratching posts into the base. Ensure they are tightened to provide a stable foundation.
- Build Upwards: Continue attaching platforms, condos, and additional scratching posts layer by layer. Each component should have pre-drilled holes that align with the posts.
- Install Special Features: Attach the hammock, perches, and any ramps or ladders as you build.
- Secure Pompoms: Attach the hanging pompoms to the designated areas on the perches.
- Ensure Stability: After full assembly, gently shake the cat tree to ensure all connections are secure and the structure is stable.
- Install Anti-Tip Kit: For enhanced safety, especially with active cats or in multi-cat households, utilize the included anti-tip kit. Secure the strap to the top of the cat tree and anchor it to a wall stud.
4. Usage Guidelines
This cat tree offers a variety of spaces for your cat's enjoyment:
- Scratching Posts and Boards: Encourage your cat to use the sisal-wrapped posts and scratching boards to maintain claw health and redirect scratching behavior away from furniture.
- Condos and Caves: These enclosed spaces provide a sense of security and privacy, ideal for napping or hiding.
- Perches: The elevated perches offer a high vantage point, satisfying your cat's instinct to observe their surroundings from above.
- Hammock: A comfortable spot for lounging and relaxing.
- Pompoms: Designed for interactive play, encouraging batting and pouncing.
5. Maintenance and Cleaning
Regular cleaning will extend the life of your cat tree and keep it hygienic for your pets.
- Top Perches: The top perches feature detachable covers that are machine washable for easy cleaning.
- Other Plush Surfaces: For other plush areas, use a vacuum cleaner to remove loose fur and debris. Spot clean any stains with a mild pet-safe cleaner and a damp cloth.
- Sisal Posts: The sisal material is tough and durable. Use a stiff brush or vacuum attachment to clean the sisal posts. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the material or be harmful to your cat.
- General Inspection: Periodically check all screws and connections to ensure they remain tight and secure.
6. Troubleshooting
- Stability Issues: If the cat tree feels wobbly, re-check all connections and ensure screws are tightened. Make sure the anti-tip kit is properly installed and anchored to a wall stud.
- Cat Not Using the Tree: Cats can be particular. Try placing familiar blankets or toys on the tree. Use catnip spray to attract them. Place the tree in a location where your cat enjoys spending time, such as near a window.
- Excessive Shedding of Plush Fabric: A new cat tree may shed some loose fibers initially. This should decrease with use and vacuuming.
7. User Tips
- Introduce Gradually: Allow your cat to explore the tree at their own pace. Don't force them onto it.
- Strategic Placement: Position the cat tree in a high-traffic area where your cat likes to be, or near a window for bird watching.
- Reward Positive Behavior: Praise and reward your cat with treats when they use the scratching posts or other features.
- Regular Playtime: Engage your cat with toys on the tree to encourage climbing and exploration.
