5. Maintenance

Proper maintenance will extend the life of your Feandrea Cat Tree and ensure a hygienic environment for your pets.

• Cleaning Removable Mats/Covers: The covers on the platforms and the mat inside the condo are removable and washable. Follow the care instructions on the labels, typically machine wash cold on a gentle cycle and air dry.
• Spot Cleaning: For non-removable fabric areas, spot clean with a mild detergent and damp cloth. Avoid excessive moisture.
• Avoid Moisture: Do not soak the sisal rope or wooden components. Moisture can damage the materials and compromise the structure.
• Vacuuming: Regularly vacuum the cat tree to remove loose fur and dust.
• Check for Wear: Periodically inspect scratching posts for significant wear. While durable, sisal rope will eventually fray with use.
