6. Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and hygiene of your cat tree, follow these care instructions:
- Regular Cleaning: Vacuum plush surfaces regularly to remove loose fur and dust. Spot clean any soiled areas with a mild pet-safe cleaner and a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Hair Removal: Use a lint roller or pet hair remover tool to keep plush areas free of excessive hair buildup.
- Periodic Inspection: Regularly check all screws and connections to ensure they remain tight. Tighten any loose parts to maintain stability.
- Sisal Post Care: The sisal rope is designed for scratching. If it becomes heavily frayed, consider replacing the post if possible, or monitor for sharp edges.
- Stability Check: Periodically ensure the cat tree is stable and does not wobble, especially if your cat is very active.

7. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |

| Cat tree wobbles or is unstable. | Loose screws or uneven placement. | Ensure all screws are tightened securely. Place the cat tree on a flat, level surface. If necessary, consider anchoring it to a wall for added stability (hardware not included). |
| Cat is not using the scratching posts. | Preference for other surfaces or unfamiliarity. | Sprinkle catnip on the sisal posts. Gently guide your cat's paws to the posts. Reward them with treats when they use it. |
