Susan Koech my mom said and I also believe that the way a treats his pets it the way he would also treat his love ones not saying feed them out of bowls and make them a scratching post bc that would be weird lol
I never thought that I would sit through a 32 minute video on building a Cat Tree, but I couldn't look away. The whole process was amazing to watch. I'm definitely going to watch some more of your stuff!
althought i realized in the first 30 seconds i dont have the tools to even start to make one like this, i watched it to the end because it was so fun. Cool editing and nice work!
Dude... Freaking major KUDOS to you for making such an outstanding tower! Your cat is one lucky kitty to have a friend that truly knows what a cat likes, needs and appreciates. Beautiful design and I can see that a lot of care went into the project. Looks better than the ones you see on sale for $200-$300.
I was watching away like oh cool & then you slowed it down to normal speed for a moment & I realized just HOW MUCH WORK you put into this. If you want to make a cat owner happy, make their cat happy. Your MIL will love you even more than she already does when she sees this. The cat is going to go bananas, I can't wait to check out that video. GREAT JOB!!!!!
I'll check them out. Thanks for the info Our old cat trees are carpeted, and have held up very well, but they are older, and I guess they used better material. As far as movement, it's the towers that wobble. Our MCs won't go on the one I got as a gift for our surprise litter of kittens. They still use it. But it really wasn't sent for the MCs' use anyway ツ It was such a nice thing for my friend to send I never told her how awful it is. It IS the thought that counts - right? And it was a great gift.
I overhaul abused cat trees for a local cat rescue. To make the overhaul last longer I wrap the vertical posts with 3/8" sisal rope bought in bulk from Amazon. Rope will last far longer than carpet. I do make some verticals with carpet for cats preferring it.
Damn, this guy is SERIOUS about building this cat tree. He does not fuck around! Very well made. Great attention to detail. Dude definitely has some mad skills!!!!
thanks for your post. This is serious, wonderful, craftmanship that at least some viewing might aspire to. Shows us what we're not going to find in store-bought offerings
Awesome Dude ! Funny too because the loudest noise in your shop ( during Fast Forward ) wasn't the saws / drills / or compressor / - but I think it was your wife !! Same over here man !! And good too because we know we'd be lost without them ! good work !! For those that commented they'd just buy one, let's see what those look like in a year or two - bet yours wins !
You carpeted that box like a straight up boss! And I like how you sped it up to where it shows what you're doing yet still very enjoyable to watch! Kudos sir 👍 💯 💪
Much better than many other cat trees I've seen, looks more sturdy and substantial. It'll last longer and for less money.. plus it has all the 3 things cats love - height.. which is graduating.. not just 2 levels so even better, small enclosures and a hammock.
Amber Dean Thank you! I hope so, the cat using it is 9 months old now and he is already 15 lbs. I know Maine Coon's can get quite large and I wanted it to hold up to however big he gets.
Fun, entertaining and educational to watch. Buying cat tree from the shops is nice and easy but takes the fun out of it and building your own you can design exactly how it will fit into your house.
Great video. It inspired me to build my own. Didn't have any tools other than a screwdriver, but now I'm $500+ invested and there no turning back. I guess this is the start of a new craft. also, my dad hoarded a bunch of wood that's been sitting in the garage. heard my mom complaining about it once. Now he's rootin for me to prove my mom wrong lol.
Thanks for the inspiration. While I have a different idea, it's great to see how you did this and I appreciate the video. I've wanted to build cat things for years, but have so little time that it seemed like retirement gig. Now you've inspired me to simply start and showed the way.
I clicked this on, but it looks like I liked it previously ... I don’t remember the video ... wow, you went above and beyond on this cat tree. That thing is sure to last forever. When ours start to get ratty carpet, we toss them because the ones we get retail are shoddy compared to yours. I can totally see recarpeting as an option in your case. VERY NICELY DONE ❤️❤️
There you have it.....measure twice, cut once. Oh my! That was amazing. I hope that Maine Coon loves it like I do. I also hope you got some sleep during this.
Thanks for this. Keep making videos. I'm an auto mechanic so I'm familiar with tools, but not with wood or things around the house as much. Thinking about buying some nice garage tools and tacking a lot of projects like this. It's really helpful just watching you work, I'm learning a lot.
Thank you so much I bought all the material I needed and more.... to build a tree house but just didn't know where to start. I really appreciate you. Thanks
....Hall of the Mountain King....you are awesome. Love the time lapse on the clock too! This was enjoyable to watch as well as the lessons taught. Obviously you know what you're doing. I'm a craftsman myself but for some reason haven't built a damn cat tree yet! Things will change this weekend. Thanks for the vid - you implemented fastening techniques I thought of but never practiced!!!! like the triangular shelf into the 4" ....genius!
That is pure craftsmanship right there. I like how seamlessly you were able to integrate the wood with the PVC. I've got 2 big cats with endless energy and those $65 Amazon towers don't hold up more than a year. Gonna have to do something like this. Awesome video!
an overkill really? How many things do you have to entertain yourself? cats live 15 yrs+. They deserve at least 1 awesome tree. especially since most cats are indoor only.
Your wife designed the cat house and you built. I commend both of you on your creativity and see through. The video was enjoyable in it's superman speed.
Great craftsmanship and ingenuity. PVC reduces the weight, a major plus. Agree w/other guy: less talk, more action suits me fine. (Elvis fans back me up.) Thanks for the how-to, well done.
Thanks, you've got some good tips on cantilevering them in here, too. I admit I'm lazy and would use dowels/closet rod cut to length for the interior of the PVC/joint support. I think I can do this almost free, I have a lot of PVC (and wood and carpet scraps....and you're right, go to a carpet store, some will even give the bits away rather than have to fill the dumpster with the scraps from an install job) kicking around, so it's a great use for it. Probably have enough fasteners and glue, too! Weekend project, thanks:) Hope kitty is enjoying it...
Awesome cat tree! I love the design, it looks much more attractive than most cat trees. I was thinking about making one but how much time it would take would just makes me change my mind, but props to you!
Alexandra Smith Thank You! I would have probably taken less time but trying to record the whole process and set up lights for every shot really took a lot of time! I would say it's a two day job.
We are family, Love the way you put this all together and so affortable. You did a exacelent job my new friend. This will hold up alot better then what you can by in the stores. Im inpressed! 😁 I have 4 cats two kittens and two Adults cats.
Love the video. Every time I watch one of these diy videos I end having to buy new tools to try them myself. One day I’ll have every tool out there I need. 😀
Good gosh, that was alot of work. Great job its very impressive, I did not know how much smaller detail that goes into it all, it looks very time consuming
This is an epic cat tree. LOVE IT 😍 Now to persuade my bf to make similar for my two cats. Their current one is so flimsy it’s broken. People kept sitting on it and one cat is nearly 7kg!
Awesome cat trees this is a great way to get kitty to use it's own Furniture ,Lots of times people get cats but don't offer them a single piece of cat Furniture & this is when the cats seek out things of their own not their fault but the owners for not providing enough cat Furniture or cat Furniture at all . All cats have to scratch .
wow, nice job. And for people saying they could buy one cheaper, they are made cheaper too and some people like to do projects at home. Also you can design how you want or change things up.
Awesome cat tree I made one for my cats out of fence posts and 3/4" plywood and it's super heavy but my cats love it so it was worth it yours is awesome and it looks very sturdy and probably not super heavy but Def durable great build thanks for sharing
I love to see all these videos of manly men spending so much time and paying attention to so much detail for their cats 😂😂😂 it's so sweet
Susan Koech my mom said and I also believe that the way a treats his pets it the way he would also treat his love ones
not saying feed them out of bowls and make them a scratching post bc that would be weird lol
cats are life
He should be watching football and UFC fighting!
I wanted to watch some cats jumping all around...
Yes. All men Love Pussy !
I never thought that I would sit through a 32 minute video on building a Cat Tree, but I couldn't look away. The whole process was amazing to watch. I'm definitely going to watch some more of your stuff!
This is one quality cat tree to be honest.
$130 to buy from commercial establishments will not last long.
This one is of really good quality.
+Cassadanielle Picassothank you!
i m sure, THIS CAT TREE will last for sooo many years , thank you for share !!
this one looks like its worth 500 dollars....from all the work he put into it.
right. i came here to learn how to make one myself that's cheaper but for that price i'd rather just go buy one.
@@zanza.462 maybe they don't have a billion tools
althought i realized in the first 30 seconds i dont have the tools to even start to make one like this, i watched it to the end because it was so fun. Cool editing and nice work!
tutukita thank you!
I would say I have most the tools cuz my grandpa and uncul ;-;
Am Carpentar you don’t put the measurement for all items like wood and bvc
Dude...
Freaking major KUDOS to you for making such an outstanding tower! Your cat is one lucky kitty to have a friend that truly knows what a cat likes, needs and appreciates. Beautiful design and I can see that a lot of care went into the project. Looks better than the ones you see on sale for $200-$300.
Amazing! I wish I could've seen a cat enjoying it at the end!
knowing a cat, it would look at the tree built with love just for it and then prefer sitting in a cardboard box
Sophie R ☺☺☺☺😊😊😊
Lmfao!
I think this is what you are looking for

This dude really loves his cat. :)
Or his wife
I'm rebuilding a neighbor's cat tree, and after seeing this I'm thinking of simply starting over and following your process. Thank you.
I was watching away like oh cool & then you slowed it down to normal speed for a moment & I realized just HOW MUCH WORK you put into this. If you want to make a cat owner happy, make their cat happy. Your MIL will love you even more than she already does when she sees this. The cat is going to go bananas, I can't wait to check out that video. GREAT JOB!!!!!
he reminds me of my sims who wants to get his inventing skill to level 10
lol
including the weird "mess ups" next to it.
You are making me want to reinstall and play Sims. Please stahp.
😂😂😂😂
Lmaoooo
After seeing how much work goes into making these cat trees, I now do not feel too cheap to just go buy one. Whew what a job!
After watching this, I know I will be buying my next cat tree. Amazing amount of work going on here.
He truly loves cats to take the time and energy to build this for them.
+Second Story I made a guitar and I doesn't have a clue on how to play... He probably just like to make stuff.
+Le Cobra and the fact that he owns a cat
You don't necessarily need to truly love anything nor anyone to do stuff (for them).
Le Cobra That`s what I was saying. He still owns a cat even if he doesn`t love it so obviously he will make it something
Great cat tree. And for the price, probably better built that most on the market
I'll check them out. Thanks for the info

Are you in the Greater Philly area?
I have a few that need overhauling :)
MomKat Pat - I was thinking the exact same thing! Great job!
I forgot how labor intensive doing all that carpet work is. I used to custom out vans in the 70's and early 80's. Nice job! Cuddles will be happy!
Damn, this guy is SERIOUS about building this cat tree. He does not fuck around! Very well made. Great attention to detail. Dude definitely has some mad skills!!!!
Wow... I wish I had a guy who could make something like this. So much better then the cheap-ass store bought ones. You did a great job!
Make one yourself? You have hands, I presume?
thanks for your post. This is serious, wonderful, craftmanship that at least some viewing might aspire to. Shows us what we're not going to find in store-bought offerings
Why do i find this video so relaxing? ._.
You can watch endlessly on three things like fire burning, water flowing and how working man
Boy do i know how hard it is to find big enough cat toys, trees or loungers for the big guys!!! Thanks for sharing!!
Awesome Dude ! Funny too because the loudest noise in your shop ( during Fast Forward ) wasn't the saws / drills / or compressor / - but I think it was your wife !! Same over here man !! And good too because we know we'd be lost without them ! good work !! For those that commented they'd just buy one, let's see what those look like in a year or two - bet yours wins !
+ATS - All Technical Solutions lol, she was pissed when she saw that. haha!
You carpeted that box like a straight up boss! And I like how you sped it up to where it shows what you're doing yet still very enjoyable to watch! Kudos sir 👍 💯 💪
Much better than many other cat trees I've seen, looks more sturdy and substantial. It'll last longer and for less money.. plus it has all the 3 things cats love - height.. which is graduating.. not just 2 levels so even better, small enclosures and a hammock.
Very cool and that cat tree is going to last decades!
Amber Dean Thank you! I hope so, the cat using it is 9 months old now and he is already 15 lbs. I know Maine Coon's can get quite large and I wanted it to hold up to however big he gets.
Excellent work!!!!! That cat tree will outlive generations.... of cats
PVC was a great idea. That saves SO much weight. Nice job with the carpet too
I went in awe when I saw that you actually MADE that!
Fun, entertaining and educational to watch. Buying cat tree from the shops is nice and easy but takes the fun out of it and building your own you can design exactly how it will fit into your house.
Great video. It inspired me to build my own. Didn't have any tools other than a screwdriver, but now I'm $500+ invested and there no turning back. I guess this is the start of a new craft.

There's something so satisfying about this video being sped up without music added on top
I like the music you used as well as watching your progress on the project and attention to detail.
Thank you!
I clicked this on, but it looks like I liked it previously ... I don’t remember the video ... wow, you went above and beyond on this cat tree. That thing is sure to last forever. When ours start to get ratty carpet, we toss them because the ones we get retail are shoddy compared to yours. I can totally see recarpeting as an option in your case. VERY NICELY DONE ❤️❤️
WONDERFUL video! Love how you showed the steps, but sped up. Great techniques that I will be using for my cat tree!
Wow, this is super well-made. I cannot believe this is a homemade cat tree.
There you have it.....measure twice, cut once. Oh my! That was amazing. I hope that Maine Coon loves it like I do. I also hope you got some sleep during this.
Wish I could have sufficent tools and a working room like yours to make everything I need. The cat house and tree are so good
thank you!
Just watched every minute if this video. Great job. It gave me a lot of ideas for the tree I'm going to build. Thank you!
outstanding workmanship ! this is nothing short of cat heaven. well done, truly !
Curtis I think you made that sturdy enough for YOU to play on. Go ahead, I want to see you climb on that thing! Do it Do it Do it!
Amazing job. Sturdier than what you buy in store
Great work! I can't wait to get started on one!!! Thanks for saving me all the trial-and-error tactics, too!
Thank you for giving me some ideas that I didn't know how to do correctly. Very appreciated! And this is a really good cat tree, hurrah!
Thanks for this. Keep making videos. I'm an auto mechanic so I'm familiar with tools, but not with wood or things around the house as much. Thinking about buying some nice garage tools and tacking a lot of projects like this. It's really helpful just watching you work, I'm learning a lot.

Nice job, both with the tree itself and the documentation of the process!
thank you very much!
Thank you so much I bought all the material I needed and more.... to build a tree house but just didn't know where to start. I really appreciate you. Thanks
He is so gorgeous and his voice is so deep and manly. I probably just watched the video for the eye candy😍.
This is so cool! If I didn't live in an apartment and had the power tools I'd make it for my rescue.
Wonderful craftsmanship! I don't think I'll ever complain about the price of cat tree after watching this video....
....Hall of the Mountain King....you are awesome.
Love the time lapse on the clock too! This was enjoyable to watch as well as the lessons taught. Obviously you know what you're doing.

Meticulous work. Your craft and dedication are awe-inspiring.
Great job on that awesome cat tree. I wish I had it right now.
That is one adorably loved & spoiled kitty. 😺😻😸 And you are a wonderful son-in-law.
Nice video , Beautiful job man. Thanks for posting. I was thinking about making these and selling them, until I watched this.
yeh I liked that wen ye could still hear the sounds o the power tools and his movements :0)
You couldn’t buy one so nice!! Very helpful!! Thanks!!
Wow, this is brilliant!!!! Love all the attention to detail. Thanks for sharing!!!
Please make more projects! It was so fun to watch the process of this video and I learned a few things from this.
That is pure craftsmanship right there. I like how seamlessly you were able to integrate the wood with the PVC. I've got 2 big cats with endless energy and those $65 Amazon towers don't hold up more than a year. Gonna have to do something like this. Awesome video!
thank you!
Excellent workmanship; solid build. Looks like it was well planned.
Thank you! 75% planned, 25% seat of my pants.
Congratulations, wonderful cat tree
Thank you, it's still holding up till this day.
That’s a great cat tree! I have several large cats and I might need to make one of these.
a bit of an overkill but the cats would be happy , probably the best cat house diy ive seen on youtube
an overkill really? How many things do you have to entertain yourself? cats live 15 yrs+. They deserve at least 1 awesome tree. especially since most cats are indoor only.
Your wife designed the cat house and you built. I commend both of you on your creativity and see through. The video was enjoyable in it's superman speed.
That was nicely done. Would have been nice seeing cat using it after all your hard work.
I want to have the room, tools and time to do this. This is amazing work.
I'm 42 seconds in and I can already tell this dude and myself would be buddies
Love this, only missing one thing, your cat enjoying the cat tree!
Great craftsmanship and ingenuity. PVC reduces the weight, a major plus. Agree w/other guy: less talk, more action suits me fine. (Elvis fans back me up.) Thanks for the how-to, well done.
So satisfying watching you make this. Also appreciate the neatly stored shelves!

He loves it! thank you for watching!
Dude is rocking the tools and skills for real, but I think he could have just built the cat a real house in less time!
This video should be considered as one of those relaxing videos
Your hard work is awesome, just miss that lucky cat enjoying it.

Really nicely done! I appreciate the attention to detail, that tree is going to last!!

Good gosh, that was alot of work. Great job its very impressive, I did not know how much smaller detail that goes into it all, it looks very time consuming
Robyn Macmillan thank you and thanks for watching! It took three days to build. Probably would have took less time if I wasn't self filming.
This is an epic cat tree. LOVE IT 😍
Now to persuade my bf to make similar for my two cats. Their current one is so flimsy it’s broken. People kept sitting on it and one cat is nearly 7kg!
Your cat s for sure the luckiest in the world! Nice work, thank you for sharing, you are very skilled and you must love your pet ♥

love how clean and organized your work is. Now where can I order one ?
he made this more difficult then it could have been but he did better than I would this is great
