Cats love boxes, and they also love small cat houses - they like feeling cozy and protected.
While you can always buy a cat house for your fluffy friend, you can also make one by yourself - it's not that hard!
Here are some DIY ideas you can try to make your cat happy.
Cat Hammock Window Perch
Attach a strong fabric or an old T-shirt to a wooden frame. Hang it in a sunny window for your cat to lounge in and watch birds outside.
Cat Teepee
Create a cozy teepee using wooden dowels and a bedsheet. Cats love to hide and play in small spaces.
Cardboard Castle
Collect cardboard boxes and create a cat castle by stacking and connecting them with glue or tape. Cut out windows and doors for your cat to explore.
PVC Pipe Cat Tunnel
Use PVC pipes to create a fun and flexible tunnel for your cat to run through. You can connect different sections and add curves for more excitement.
Cat Tree Bookshelf
Transform a bookshelf into a cat tree by adding carpeted shelves and scratching posts. Cats can climb and relax on it.
Cat Box Maze
Arrange cardboard boxes into a maze by cutting openings between them. Your cat can have a blast exploring and hiding inside.
Cat Wall Shelves
Install wooden shelves on your walls at varying heights. Cats can climb and perch on them, giving them a bird's-eye view of the room.
Hanging Cat Bed
Suspend a basket or a small wooden platform from the ceiling with strong ropes. Make sure it's secure for your cat to nap in.
Catio
If you have outdoor space, build a "catio" – an enclosed outdoor area where your cat can safely enjoy the fresh air without roaming freely.
Cat Tent
Use a small pop-up tent as a cozy hideaway for your cat. Place a soft blanket inside for extra comfort.
