If you are a cat parent, you might have wondered whether you should get a cat tree for your furry friend. A cat tree is not just a fancy toy or a piece of furniture, it is actually a very beneficial addition to your cat’s indoor environment.
The Benefits of a Cat Tree
Cats are natural climbers and scratchers. They love to explore their surroundings, find high places to perch and observe, and mark their territory with their claws. These behaviors are essential for their physical and mental well-being.
A cat tree offers your cat a safe, comfortable, and fun place to exercise, play, and relax. Here are some of the benefits of having a cat tree for your cat:
- Exercise and stimulation. A cat tree can help your cat stay fit and healthy by encouraging them to climb, jump and stretch. This can prevent obesity, boredom, and stress-related issues such as over-grooming or aggression. A cat tree can also stimulate your cat’s natural curiosity and hunting instincts by providing them with different levels, platforms, tunnels, toys, and hiding spots.
- Security and comfort. A cat tree can provide high vantage points where your cat can survey their territory and feel safe from potential threats. This can reduce anxiety and fear in shy or nervous cats, especially if they live in a multi-pet household or a noisy environment. A cat tree can also provide your cat with a cozy and warm place to nap and rest, especially if it has soft cushions or beds.
- A stronger bond. A cat tree can be a great place for you to interact with your cat and show them affection. You can play with them using toys or treats, groom them gently, or simply cuddle with them on the cat tree. This can strengthen your relationship with your cat and make them feel loved and happy.
How to Choose the Right Cat Tree
There are many types and styles of cat trees available on the market, so how do you choose the best one for your cat? Here are some factors to consider when shopping for a cat tree:
- Age and ability. For senior cats or cats with mobility issues, you may want to opt for a low-height or ramp-accessible cat tree that is easy to climb and has comfortable resting areas. For kittens or energetic cats, you may want to go for a tall or multi-level cat tree that has more challenges and entertaining features.
- Space and budget. You also need to consider how much space you have in your home and how much money you are willing to spend on a cat tree. Cat trees can range from small to large sizes and from cheap to expensive prices. You need to find a balance between what suits your needs and what fits your budget. Ideally, you want to choose a sturdy and durable cat tree that has enough room for your cat to move around and play.
- Your cat’s preferences. Think about what your cat likes and dislikes. Some cats may prefer certain materials, colors, shapes, or designs over others. For example, some cats may like rope or cardboard scratching posts more than carpet ones, or some cats may like round or curved platforms more than square ones. You can observe your cat’s behavior and habits to get an idea of what they enjoy.
- Your design preferences. Finally, it’s important to consider what cat tree will look best in your home. This is often a pain-point for the design-inclined who not only care about the wellbeing of the cat, but also about the appearance of their home… Enter Papuk.

Hear what other cat parents had to say about the Connect Cat Tree:
Rach S. – ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐The best cat furniture for design-y people“As someone who works in interior design, I’m super picky about what I bring into my home. When I first saw this bundle, I just knew it was exactly what I’ve been looking for! It took like 10 minutes to put together and fit right in with the rest of my home; it’s genuinely so stunning and well-designed. My two kitties have had two much fun climbing, napping, and playing together on this—it’s the best :)”
Caleb M. – ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Still love it!“I’ve owned the Papuk Cat Tree with a pillow and toy attachments for a couple years. Both my cats love it (often fighting to get the prime top seat). It’s compact enough to fit in my condo, and goes with my aesthetic. Definitely recommend for any design focused cat parents.”
Arthur W. – ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Perfect quality and design“We purchased our new cat tree a week ago and it became a new comfort zone for Albus, she loves it!The quality is excellent with soft material. An amazing design which fits awesome with our furniture. We were so pleased that we followed up with a new order completing the connect set with the accessories. Highly recommended “
