Homemade tree for the BIG BOY
(lemmy.world)
None of our numerous store-bought cat trees were ever large enough for our 16lb boy, so I grabbed an old area rug and plywood scraps I had and took matters into my own hands.
It's about 70% compete, I'm gonna add at least a platform on top of the post, and my partner wanted a cat hammock, so I gotta figure out where/how to incorporate that.
Lemmy know what you think!
I've done plenty of cat stuff with staples, especially the sisal rope, as long as you angle it in the direction they would be scratching it's usually fine, you do need a really heavy duty staple gun tho
I use staples, too. I use them for the primary attachment of carpet, while the adhesive cures. Clamps, too, depending on how aesthetically pleasing the surface needs to be
