Best Overall

Trixie loves it!
This is the best thing I purchased for her. She spends a lot of time on it watching the birds outside
-
Great Size and Easy to Assemble
This tree is great! Perfect height, very sturdy, and assembly is straightforward. My cat is big on scratch posts which is what made me purchase this tree in particular, and he fully utilizes every single one! He’s not sure how to feel about the vertical scratch board though (but you can easily remove it). He frequently sleeps on the platforms. The material is soft and rope durable to withstand a very active scratcher.
-
Tall enough to give him a good view
I’ve moved this one around a few times and so far he loves it most between the kitchen table and window so he can see outside while lounging :)
Best Cat Tree for Large Cats
-
my cat likes it so that’s a win
Price to quality ratio seems great! Not too gigantic. Cat has been exploring all levels since we got it a few weeks ago, it’s become her main perch.
-
Perfect for large cats!
I have a 15lbs large cat and I wanted to find a tree that gave her plenty of room to sprawl. She is obsessed with this tree and has plenty of room to lounge. She also loves the different heights of scratching posts to allow her to fully stretch out. It was easy to set up and I love that the top bed can be removed and cleaned.
-
Sturdy and great for multiple kitties
Great for multiple kitties. Sturdy. Removable washable cover. Kitties are enjoying. Roomy enough for two chubby kitties to sit on top comfortably.
Best Tall Cat Tree
-
This little guy approves
His new favorite spot in the entire house, it took him a day to get all cozy up on this cat tree
-
sturdy for the price
good quality and price. My cat loves it and it gives her a great place up high to soak up the sun! A+++
-
My cats love it!
This tree is great if you have more than one cat! They love playing on it, and the multiple top shelves make it so that they can both sit up high. They use it daily. This has also helped keep them off my counters because it is an alternate high spot for them to sit. It’s also fairly easy to assemble, I did it myself in about an hour. I recommend, especially for the price!
Best Cat Tree with Condo
-
Incredible
She loves getting to the top perch and watching the birds. It's sturdy and gives her plenty of room to play.
-
Favorite place to roost!
My Babies love their view from above! I often find them sleeping on the perches. One of my kitties likes to "Superman" off the perch and onto the bed at night, night time.
-
Sturdy and safe
I have an older cat and a year old ginger. They both love the perches and the apartments. This was a great purchase.
Best Budget Cat Tree
-
Perfect viewing station
I wanted a perch for my cat to sit in to see out the window but also something that would be a source of entertainment! The condo plus 2 perches is perfect.
-
Easy to assemble, great sisal scratching posts
When I first assembled the tree, I was concerned that it was not sturdy enough and would topple as my cat jumped on and off the top tier, but it’s actually been great so far! I love how tall the sisal scratching post is - it allows my cat to really stretch up and scratch it, as opposed to the short ones which don’t provide enough vertical space for standing and scratching. I got this tree specifically for the spot in front of my side bedroom window, and it was the perfect height for that. My cat loves to sit on the top tier and look out the window, and when she’s done with that, she curls up for a nap with plenty of space for whatever...
-
Great medium sized cat tree
I was looking for a medium sized cat tree that would allow easier access to the window for my cat that previously had a femur fracture and can't jump as high. It took her about a month to warm up to the cat tree, first only using the middle level to access the window and after about two months actually napping in the top bed. My previous foster kitten also loved to climb around and nap in the cat tree. So far, none have really used the hut on the bottom level but perhaps future foster kittens will use it. Finally, it can wobble a little bit when my cat has the zoomies and she leaps onto it from a greater speed and distance. I expected it may...
Best Cat Tree with Carpet
-
Cats love it. They took an immediate love for it!
Very well constructed and easy to assemble. Lots of places to rest in and lots of surface area to scratch. Highly recommend it.
-
Initially it was a no for me
I ordered this tree because I wanted real carpet. The other style trees do not last long. It’s taller than I like. The design I felt was off. Not smooth. It didn’t flow from the bottom to the top. And its columns are skinny making it seem wobbly. At first my cat wouldn’t touch it. I had to coax him on with treats. But, it is well made. And now my cats use it. He still used his old one too but I have see. him in this one more. So five stars from Mars and Panda.

Cats love it.
It's sturdy and easy for the cats to get from level to level.Two of our younger cats play and nap on it daily.
Best Cat Tree that Looks Like a Tree
-
Sturdy and appealing
this is perfect for all my cats. It is sturdy for the larger cats and has nice platforms and tunnels to play in.
-
Purrfect!
We had a cat tree from Chewy which my cat loved...to death. So when it was time to replace it, we did decide to down size and this the perfect size! She is happy and I have more room.
-
Not Perfect but..
My cats LOVE sunbathing on the top and attacking the scratching posts. The leaves didn’t last very long so it looks pretty bare now. The hanging tunnel also has gone loose (cats didn’t even use it. Despite the small annoyances, it was easy to assemble and what really matters is that the cats like it.
Best for Cats Who Love to Scratch

Cats Love It
All 3 of my cats use it daily. Since are all black & the 3rd is black & while, it's sometimes hard to see them but I also can't see any hair they leave behind - LOL
-
Solid, sturdy, and my boys loved it immediately
After looking at a ton of different cat trees, I decided to purchase this one. It was important that it was sturdy (my boys are 11 months and 9 months and growing like weeds). Also, since there are two of them, I wanted there to be lots of beds and places to lay. This has 3 beds, a hut, and a hammock with multiple perches and scratching posts. And as soon as I started putting it together, I could see how well made and sturdy it was. And both the cats loved watching and participating in me putting it together. It was love at first sight. Best money I've spent lately!
-
Nice plush tower
Good size, easy numbered assembly, sturdy, good value for the price. Let’s see how it holds up once the cats go at it. The removal covers make it difficult for the cats to climb to the beds. Not sure how the firmness of the removal cushions will hold up after washing.
Best Modern Cat Tree
-
Nice perch
I wanted a cat tree without carpet. This is a nice one. Very sturdy. Easy to put together. Cat likes the top platform for bird watching. He’s a 15 pound cat and has no trouble with the platform design a few reviews mention
-
Aesthetically Pleasing
I've been looking for months for a cat tree that wasn't ugly as sin but also not $600. I was pumped when I saw this one. It looks great, the laminate is realistic like wood, and the other materials are good too. It was not difficult to put together by myself, just took a little bit of time. It is true that a cat wouldn't be able to get from the first platform to the second, but mine is next to a table and she goes right to the second then the third. It only took a few days for my cat to start chillin up there. The best part is she has stopped trying to climb up my bookshelves! Overall very happy I can have a cat tree that doesn't ruin the...

I love the nice design of this tree. LOVE no carpet !! I.
I only buy uncarpeted trees now. Carpeted ones are a cleaning nightmare. The kitties love it, though they refused to pose. This was super easy to assemble, and it beautiful.
Best Cat Tree for Small Spaces
-
Cute cat tree for kitten or young cat
Was the first cat tree that I bought for my cat and she enjoyed it! The sisal posts could be more durable, however.
-
Great for Kittens
Perfect for when my cats were kittens and as a secondary cat tree for scratching & lounging by the window now that they’re bigger. Really good quality and still in excellent condition after being used daily for 2 years.
-
My cat absolutely loves this
Like most cats, mine is kind of particular. In order for her to use a scratcher or a piece of furniture, it must fulfill a few requirements. It can’t be too steep, it has to not wobble with her on it (she’s 17lbs and is pretty long), and I have to place it in the right location. She legit has shedded this and I had to buy a replacement.
Best Novelty Cat Tree
-
10/10 cat (and ferret) condo
This little tower is so cute and the quality is amazing! It took about 10 minutes to fully assemble, and sits perfectly in our kitchen area. The main reason why I purchased this was because two of my cats have a hard time jumping down from the counter, so this was a great way for them to jump down safely. The condo itself isn't ideal for my large boys, but they still go inside to nap. My ferrets also love snuggling inside Thanks so much for making a wonderful and cute product!
-
so cute!
both the kitten and the adult cat (a svelte but long lady) fit perfectly in this small adorable llama scritcher/bed
-
Llama a welcome addition
We bought the llama to keep the giraffe company and fill an empty space in our living room. It was very easy to put together. The cats love it. Our older cat, Melody was napping in the giraffe earlier. I am hoping all the kitties will enjoy their new scratching and napping menagerie animals.
A cat tree may seem like a larger investment, but your furry friend will get so much out of it. The best cat trees will provide hours of entertainment—and give them their new favorite spot for snoozing away the afternoon.
