Operating Instructions

The PLEKER 5-in-1 Cat Wall Shelves offer a versatile and engaging environment for your cats, supporting their natural instincts to climb, jump, scratch, rest, and hide. The modular design allows for endless layouts to suit any room and cater to your cat's preferences.

Key Features and Usage:

• Climbing and Jumping: Arrange the platforms to create dynamic paths for your cat to explore, offering higher views and stimulating physical activity.
• Scratching: Utilize the sisal scratching post and scratching board to satisfy your cat's natural urge to claw, helping to protect your furniture.
• Resting and Hiding: The double-layer cat bed with a hideaway cave, cat sofa, and cat basket provide cozy, elevated spots for napping and observing their surroundings.
• Playtime: The hanging toy ball on the cat tree adds an interactive element to keep your cat engaged and entertained.

Maintenance

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

• Surfaces: Gently dust and vacuum solid wood and velvet surfaces to remove cat hair and debris.
• Sisal Scratching Posts: Trim any loose sisal fibers from the scratching posts as needed to maintain their integrity.
• Location: Keep the product in a dry, indoor location. Avoid exposure to moisture or direct sunlight for prolonged periods.
• Cleaning Restrictions: Do not machine wash or dry clean any components. Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent if necessary, then air dry completely.

Troubleshooting

• Wobbling or Instability: Re-check all mounting points. Ensure brackets are securely fastened into wall studs or that appropriate anchors are used for solid walls. If using drywall anchors, verify they are rated for the expected load and consider upgrading to stronger anchors if your cats are particularly active or heavy.
• Cats Not Using the Shelves: Cats may need time to adjust to new furniture. Try placing treats or catnip on the shelves to encourage exploration. Ensure the layout provides easy and safe access between components.
• Product Damage: If any part of the system becomes damaged, discontinue use immediately to prevent injury to your pet. Contact customer support for replacement parts or assistance.
• Suitability for Large Cats: While each shelf is built for strength (up to 44lbs), the platform sizes are optimized for small to medium cats. Larger or heavier cats may find the platforms more compact. Ensure the chosen layout provides adequate space for your cat's size and comfort.
