The Popular "Sunflower"

The Sunflower is proving to be one of our more popular cat trees. It is an extremely attractive piece of furniture that your cat will adapt to in about as long as it takes it to say "meow". The cat tree is compact, colorful, and its unique design allows the tree to fit into a corner. It has all the features of our much larger trees and brings the beauty of the outdoors into your home. Whether climbing, jumping, hiding, exploring, or its more common activity, sleeping, this is the perfect unit for your cat.

The cat tree is only 4 feet 4 inches tall, and 52 inches wide. The trunk is covered in a high grade commercial carpet and provides a scratching post for your cat. The top flower is 28 inches round with a padded center and a thermal liner to retain your cat's heat for added comfort. There are four holes each 9 inches in diameter that lead to the center of the trunk which is 12 inches in diameter. Four sculptured leaves surround the trunk providing layers for climbing or space for "snoozing". Not only does each leaf have our thermal liner, but each is attached to the trunk in such a way as to provide "flex" when the cat jumps onto the leaf making it easier on its joints and back. Older cats will get much more use out of a unit with this feature. The wide round base provides stability and guarantees the cat tree will not tip during normal use. This unique piece of cat furniture will be the focalpoint of activity for your cat, and the center of conversation among your friends.

Order your cat tree today ... you will be sure to have it before the Holidays.

Scratching is Natural


You know they say scratching is as natural as breathing for a cat. If you don't provide a suitable place for your cat to scratch you can bet they will find a place, and it may not be one you approve of. Cat's can be trained to scratch were you want them to. You start by providing them with something to scratch and make sure it is conveniently located. We pride ourselves with building our larger cat trees with a high quality commercial carpet that's ideal for a cat to sink their claws into and pull. These trees have a built in scratching post, and along with the many other features we incorporate into our trees, make them the number one choice of cats and cat lover's. See our full line of cat trees at: http://www.greatlakescatfurniture.com/ and look for the blue or red cat paw which will tell you whether or not the tree is suitable for a clawed cat.

Black Eyed Susan - Two Sizes




The Black Eyed Susan is a very unique piece of cat furniture. The larger cat tree stands 4 feet 7 inches tall and is 54 inches wide. It has a 30 inch round padded bed on the top which has a thermal liner to retain your cat's body heat for hours of comfort. There are two large sculptured leaves and two smaller leaves on the trunk of the cat tree, all constructed with high grade carpeting and thermal liner. Four holes in the thunk will keep the most inquisitive cat busy, or provide a quiet spot for when your cat wants to be left alone. The trunk is wrapped in a commercial grade carpet the cats just love to dig their claws into when scratching or stretching, it's like having a built in scratching post. Because the carpet is of such high quality it will give you years of trouble free wear. A wide round base adds stability that guarantees this Cat Tree will not tip under normal use. This unique flower design and color scheme will be the focal point in any decor.

The smaller unit is made with the same attention to detail and the same quality material. It stands only 3 feet high and is 50 inches wide, and is packed with the same features that cats love in the larger tree. There are two scultured leaves measuring 10 inches by 20 inches, and two holes in the trunk to tweak curiosity and provide a "get away" spot. This smaller unit is a great value and it fits nicely in front of an outside window.

The Big Oak


On our website The "Big Oak" is getting the most traffic of our product pages. It's no wonder because it's built like the real thing - very strong and durable. It stands seven feet tall and weights 150 lbs. It's large enough for seventeen cats to be on it at the same time. There are a total of twelve leaves, each sculptured for your cat's comfort and lined with our unique thermal layer to retains your cat's body heat. Nine holes are positioned in the truck providing many areas for exploration or hiding. The Cat Tree trunk is wrapped in commercial grade carpeting turning it into a scratching post and also giving your cat an ideal place to stretch. Our unique design allows for each piece to be easily replaced in the event of excessive wear and tear, or damage. You don't have to replace the entire tree because of an unsightly part - simply replace that part and continue enjoying the tree.


For those of you saying "seven feet - 150 lbs is just too big", we've made a smaller model. We call it the "Little Oak" (not a big stretch). It's only five feet tall and 115 lbs. Built with the same quality material and care to detail as the larger version. This might be just the right size your looking for.

"Some Assembly Required"


If you ever put together children's toys that stated "some assembly required" you may shudder every time you hear those words. But let me assure you - assembly of our cat trees is simple and easy. The only tool required is a small wrench. The smaller trees (The Spider and The Acorn) come fully assembled, the rest need to be put together. The top and base simply "spin" on, and all that is required is that you "hand" tighten them to the trunk. The leaves attach to a metal bracket on the trunk with two bolts. The holes are easily accessible to slip the bolt through, and you have no trouble fitting a wrench onto the nut to tighten. Velco flaps hide all the metal parts. A drawing of how the parts go together comes with every cat tree for those who need a "visual".

The trees are very sturdy and stable once assembled, and guaranteed not to tip under normal use. The various parts of each cat tree is designed to be "replaceable" - if a leaf gets damaged for example, it can be replaced without replacing the entire tree. You may want to change the color theme; you could easily do that by changing parts. This feature gives you much more value for your money and extends the life of the tree.

So whatever you are looking for in Cat Furniture; whether its called a Cat Condo, Cat House, Cat Climbing Tree, Cat Scratching Post, etc. - you owe it to your feline friend to check out the products at Great Lakes Cat Furniture.

Don't let the phrase "some assembly required" scare you. It truely is fast and easy.
