Go Pet Club Cat Tree Review

Cat Trees... Carpet Covered Works Of Art?

Seriously, cat trees are carpet covered works of art if done right.   And the carpet covered cat towers usually are the most well-made and the sturdiest of all the cat furniture out there.  Let's face it we use carpet for these because it's very durable, comes in a bajillion different colors and textures and is still a fabric so it can be wrapped around stuff like posts, platforms and tubes.

This lets true artists have free reign and create some truly stunning art for your kitty to zip around on.  Your cats will enjoy it for years and years while YOU get to have a stunning conversation piece in your home.  Just take a look at these…

Best Cat Tree Without Carpet Ideas

If you are looking for a cat tree without carpet your options have greatly expanded in the last few years.  Nowa days, you can find cat trees in all shapes and sizes.  They range from bare wood to those covered in an assortment of very sturdy fabrics or cushions.  This broadens your range of colors and patterns as well as making it easier to replace the coverings when they become worn.  Some folks tell me they are easier to clean as well for sure the bare wood ones are.  So to help you in your search we humbly offer up these cat trees without carpet.

Cat Trees, Carpet And Thinking Outside The Box

Brand new plush or shag carpet aren't the only options for building cat trees.  In fact, you don't have to use carpet at all if you don't want to.

It always surprises me that folks don't think outside the box more when they opt to build their own cat furniture.

I mean, that's the beauty of doing it yourself, right?  YOU are in total control of design and materials.

If you want the most expensive purple shag then blingtastic purple shag it is.  If you want to build a cat tree house like this one here for both your cats and your kids to play in, you can!

Let me be crystal clear.  You don't have to cover your cat furniture in carpet.

BUT if you like carpet but would rather keep costs low there are tons of options to do that as well.

First, you can NOT BE IN A HURRY!

If you take your time and snoop around you probably can still build a cat tree doll house like this one.  In full neon blue and pink premium carpet for WAY CHEAP or even FREE!

But you have to scope out your options first.  You see, many carpet sellers/installation companies toss out carpet scraps that would suit your needs perfectly.  If you ask them nicely often times they will sell to you dirt cheap or even give you what to them are just the unsellable scraps left over from a job.

Now if you want specific colors, you may have to wait a while and keep checking with them or with many different companies.

But if you are not choosy about color or style, you can probably find enough such carpet to suit your needs on just about any given day of the week.

But this isn't the only source of cheap or low cost carpet to build your cat trees with.

Cat Trees... Is Carpet The Only Answer?

If I had a dollar for every time I heard someone bellyache about carpet and cat trees I'd be able to retire!

Ok, so maybe that's a bit unfair but still.  There are folks out there that think the only thing you can cover cat furniture with is shag carpet.

Nothing could be further from the truth.

Though if you cover your cat tree with carpet it will last a LONG time because it is very durable.

And what you can do with it is incredibly versatile, as you can see from the cool pattern in this cat three here.  It is hardly the only covering you can or even should use when you build a cat tree for yourself.

The list of materials you can cover a cat tree with is as limitless as your imagination.  Some things that spring to mind are…
