Window Perch & High-Spot Reset: 15-Minute Vertical Cat Space Refresh

Cats don’t only walk horizontal paths — they climb, rest high, watch windows, and claim vertical territory. Over time, dust settles, perches loosen, and window-seat comfort fades. A short reset revives those high places.

This 15-minute Window Perch & High-Spot Reset relies on items from Kitty N More — including Cat Beds, Hammocks & Furniture, Wall-Mounted Cat Furniture & Shelves, and cleaning supplies for pets.

Step 1 (5 minutes) – Secure and clean shelves/hammocks

• Check mounting & supports: For wall-mounted shelves or hammock seats, ensure screws or brackets are tight and stable so no wobble when cats climb.
• Wipe down surfaces: Remove dust or cat hair from platforms, hammocks, and ledges — clean once every few weeks to maintain hygiene and comfort.
• Shake out cushions or mats: If your perch uses soft bedding or mats, take them out, shake off fur, and air them before placing back.

Step 2 (6 minutes) – Re-arrange to optimize view and comfort

• Position perches near windows: If possible, move shelves or beds so cats can see outside — birds, movement, light — enriching their indoor life.
• Create multiple levels: If you have more than one perch or shelf, stagger their height so cats can jump or climb comfortably — not all high spots should be at same height.
• Add soft padding or mat: For comfort, especially for older cats — a small mat or cushion helps absorb impact and provide warmth.

Step 3 (4 minutes) – Final check and gentle invitation

• Test stability: Press gently on each perch and shelf — no wobble, no shifting, safe for cat weight.
• Wipe floor beneath the spots: Clean fur or debris fallen from perches so area stays tidy.
• Encourage use with a treat or toy: After reset, place a favorite toy or treat on the perch to invite your cat — helps them explore new layout.

With this Window Perch & High-Spot Reset, elevated corners become clean, safe, and inviting again — giving your cat a refreshed vantage point and a renewed sense of domain. Vertical space, respected and renewed.
