Cat Furniture & Climbing Space Refresh: 15-Minute Safety & Comfort Check

Cats view the world vertically: a shelf, a perch, a hammock near the window — these high places become their refuge. With time though, screws loosen, surfaces gather dust, bedding wears thin. A regular furniture refresh keeps those elevated spaces safe and inviting.

This 15-minute Cat Furniture & Climbing Space Refresh uses offerings from Kitty N More — such as wall-mounted shelves & furniture, hammocks & cat beds, and cleaning supplies to maintain comfort and security up high.

Step 1 (5 minutes) – Check stability & tighten mountings

• Press gently on shelves or perches: Test for wobbles, loose brackets or screws — safety matters more than convenience.
• Tighten screws or brackets if needed: Use proper tools; if furniture is old and unsafe, consider replacement rather than repair.
• Ensure weight-capacity is respected: If multiple cats share a perch, verify it can support combined weight — avoid overloading.

Step 2 (6 minutes) – Clean surfaces, bedding & remove dust**

• Wipe down shelves, hammocks, perches: Use a damp cloth or pet-safe wipes to remove dust and fur — improves air quality and comfort.
• Wash or replace removable bedding: If hammocks or mats are washable, launder; if worn, swap for fresh from furniture collection.
• Vacuum or sweep area underneath the climbing space: Fur and dust fall — cleaning prevents build-up and keeps surrounding floor tidy.

Step 3 (4 minutes) – Refresh accessories & observe cat comfort

• Add soft blankets or cushions: Offer extra comfort — cats often appreciate soft padding rather than cold boards or hard surfaces.
• Check for sharp edges or loose parts: Remove or cover anything dangerous — screws, exposed wood, torn fabric — prioritize safety.
• Observe cat behavior briefly: After reset, watch if your cat hesitates or avoids the perch — if so, adjust location, bedding, or height for reassurance.

This Cat Furniture & Climbing Space Refresh preserves the vertical comfort and safety of your cat’s home. Stable shelves, clean surfaces, soft bedding — a high space that welcomes leap, rest, and quiet watching. Because comfort is best when it’s safe, always.
