Bella Pet Design has customers that complain that a cat tree is not enough for their 2 cats, and that they always fight for the same top bed of the tree.
Cats have competitive natures, as well as the love to climb. The top spot gives them the feeling they are in charge, they look at everything from above, are able to observe things and are able to react. This is instinctive for a cat, cats still have the wild instincts that bigger cats use in the wild. A big cat, like a lion would climb a tree and sit on one of the branches feeling more secure that if an attack would come, they are able to observe all the action below them, which gives them the advantage of time, to react.
Although our beloved home cats are in no imminent danger not should they feel threaten, that instinct coming from their ancestors will most likely never disappear.
So is there a resolution for this problem? We at Bella Pet Design think so:
You either get a custom cat tree that has a double top or one with a single larger top. I personally would advise for the single larger top? Why: Because as I said earlier cats are competitive and they will always try to have the same top shelf. A larger shelf would accommodate both your cats.
If we are thinking 3 or more cats a real large top shelf for your cat tree might be the answer, depending on the size of your cats.
