Maintenance

Proper maintenance will extend the life of your Cat Craft 3-Level Cat Condo Tree.

• Cleaning: The fabric components are spot clean only. Use a damp cloth and mild detergent for small stains. Avoid saturating the material. Vacuum regularly to remove loose fur and debris.
• Inspection: Periodically check all screws and connections to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten if necessary.
• Damage: If any part of the cat tree becomes significantly damaged or unstable, discontinue use and consider replacing the affected component or the entire unit.

Troubleshooting

Here are solutions to common issues you might encounter:

• Instability: If the cat tree wobbles, ensure it is placed on a level surface. Check all assembly connections and tighten any loose screws or bolts.
• Cat Not Using Tree: Cats may need time to adjust to new items. Try placing treats or familiar toys on different levels. You can also use catnip to attract your cat to the scratching areas or beds.
• Worn Scratching Surface: Over time, the scratching pad may show wear. While designed for durability, excessive wear may reduce its effectiveness. Consider replacing the unit if the scratching surface is no longer functional.
