Paradise Banana Leaf Cat Tree

I can't recommend this enough. When we first saw photos of it from other members we knew that it would be the ideal cat tree for Hank. Not only that it looks great it's also VERY sturdy too. To be honest, I think Hank is a little spoilt having this tree all to himself as I can imagine that it is large enough for 2 or 3 Maine Coons. Maybe 4 or more if you have smaller cats.

The instruction leaflet is very vague, but my husband manage to put it up within 20 mins no problem. We have placed the tree in our dining/kitchen room just by the large patio doors, Hank loves it there because he can watch the birds etc. He does tend to sit right on the top though like a little lion on his throne. He particularly loves the hammock to sleep in during the night and the flat ledge to watch us all when were eating our dinner.

I'm very picky when it comes to stuff like these, and thankfully, the Paradise cat tree goes with my decor, and blends in you hardly notice it's there. It's a little pricey but it's worth it as I would imagine that it will last for a long long time. Though its big, it's not bulky or an eye sore, and the most important thing of all is that Hank absolutely LOVES it!

Pros: Sturdy, Large enough for Maine Coons, stylish.

Cons: Unclear instructions & expensive (but he's worth it!) :LOL:

Paradise Banana Leaf Cat Tree - Zooplus

It is indeed a fantastic cat tree! We used it as only tree up to the number of 3 cats, but for cats n°4 & 5 we decided to combine it with another cat tree. I wanted to buy a second banana leaf, but then Axxes won a cat tree (unfortunately no banana leaf) as a price for his Best over All election in a show, and now we're using that one. It's no way as sturdy as the banana leaf and I think we still might have to buy a second banana leaf in the future.

My postman has just this minute delivered mine in a huge box!! - it is taking up most of the hallway! The postman laughed when I asked him to bring it in as the dogs where standing up at the doorway and looking intrigued. I said 'the things we do for our pets!' and smiled and he laughed again. I will have fun putting it up tonight and let you know how I get on later. It will go in my office which is a room at the front of the house and I will put it by the window so he can have a view of the world going by!

Well I got it up - eventually -took me and my 11 year old daughter an hour and a half! Don't know how you did it in 20mins. It looks lovely though. I'm a bit worried I haven't done it up tight enough as the top is a bit wobbly so I may have to take it down at the weekend and get my husband to do it up tighter. I thought the instructions were utterly useless!!!!

They do look great... I haven't seen them in Australia.

We're going to enclose the side of the house where we currently have a shadehouse for our boy when he arrives so he will be able to spend time outside safely.
