    ah, what a beautiful cat! Also, great ideas. Mine enjoys playing with the tree itself. ;-)

    I like the recycled cat scratcher one. My cat chose a bolt of material to use many years ago, and I've just been chopping the really used pieces off every now and then... But, someday there isn't going to be anything to chop off any more. I will keep this place in mind. Thanks!
