6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance will extend the life of your cat tree and keep it hygienic for your pets.

• Cleaning: The plush fabric surfaces can be easily cleaned using a lint roller or a vacuum cleaner to remove pet hair and debris. For minor stains, wipe with a slightly damp cloth and allow to air dry completely.
• Inspection: Periodically check all screws and connections. Tighten any loose fasteners to maintain stability.
• Scratching Posts: Monitor the condition of the scratching posts. While durable, they will wear over time. Consider replacing the entire cat tree or adding additional scratching solutions if posts become excessively worn.
• Pom-pom Balls: The included pom-pom balls are replaceable. If your cats damage or lose the original balls, use the provided bell-free alternatives or similar replacements.

7. Troubleshooting

Here are solutions to common issues you might encounter:

• Instability: If the cat tree feels wobbly, re-check all screw connections and ensure they are tightened. Confirm that the anti-tip kit is correctly installed and secured to a wall stud or appropriate anchor. Ensure the tree is on a level floor.
• Cats Not Using the Tree: Cats can be particular. Try placing the tree in a different location, perhaps near a window or in a quiet corner. Use catnip spray on the scratching posts or platforms. Place their favorite blanket or toy on one of the levels.
• Excessive Shedding/Hair: This is normal for plush cat trees. Regular vacuuming or using a lint roller will help manage pet hair.
• Damaged Components: If a part becomes damaged, discontinue use of that specific part if it compromises safety. Contact customer support for potential replacement parts or guidance.
