• Pompom and Elastic Band Safety: If your cat attempts to chew or ingest the pompom toys or elastic bands, remove them immediately and keep them out of reach to prevent choking hazards.
• Rounded Corners: The platforms are designed with rounded corners to minimize the risk of injury to both pets and humans.
• Placement: Place the cat tree on a flat, stable surface. Avoid placing it near windows without proper securing, or in high-traffic areas where it could be easily bumped.

6. Maintenance

Regular cleaning and maintenance will extend the life of your cat tree and ensure a hygienic environment for your pets.

• Cushion Cleaning: The plush cushions are removable and washable. For daily care, brush them to remove loose fur. For deep cleaning, remove and hand wash or machine wash on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Air dry completely before reattaching.
• Surface Cleaning: The veneered surfaces can be wiped clean with a damp cloth to remove hair and dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals that may damage the finish or be harmful to pets.
• Sisal Posts: Inspect sisal scratching posts for wear. While durable, heavily worn posts may need replacement over time to maintain their effectiveness.
• General Inspection: Periodically check for any loose parts, frayed ropes, or damaged components. Tighten screws as needed.

7. Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your cat tree.

• Cat Tree Wobbles: Ensure all screws are securely tightened. Verify that the anti-tip kit is properly installed and anchored to a wall stud or appropriate wall anchor. Place the tree on a level surface.
• Creaking Noises: Creaking can occur if connections are not fully tightened. Re-tighten all assembly screws. If the issue persists, ensure the tree is not under uneven stress from an unlevel floor.
• Cats Not Using Scratching Posts: Try enticing your cat with catnip sprayed on the sisal posts. Ensure the posts are stable and do not wobble when scratched.
• Hanging Toys Damaged/Removed: The hanging toys are designed for play but may be removed by active cats. These can be replaced with similar cat-safe toys if desired.
• Difficulty Reaching Top Levels (for larger cats): Some larger or less agile cats may find certain jumps challenging. Consider adding a small, stable step stool nearby or repositioning the tree to allow easier access from adjacent furniture if necessary.
