This is the cat tree my husband built near our front door.  It is made of PVC plumbing pipes, wood, and sticky-backed industrial carpeting. You can probably see the cats have ripped the carpeting to shreds.  This is in the living room of our small house -- it almost qualifies as a tiny house at 675 square feet.  My recording/lesson studio is actually hidden in this room.  



Below is a picture of some of the cat shelves in my office, a petite room in the front of the house.  The cats can roam and sleep above my desk.  I keep most of my files, makeup, sewing, and other supplies in the mirror-doored IKEA wardrobe by the desk.  Some of you might recognize this little room from my Sphere of Protection video -- it is the same space.  



This is my office window.  The stained glass is fake -- it is a sticker.  The grille is a piece of wall "art" from Hobby Lobby.  I think I paid about $25 for it.  It keeps the cats from trying to bust through the screen.  

 

Ashley Amore Reed Cocklebur Steele.  This is in the kitchen.  The stools came from a guy in nearby Wheaton from Facebook Marketplace; I think they were $10 each or less.  The seats are pretty beat up and need a refinishing.



Shadow Shadilay Sniffles Spazzimodo Steele.   My husband built the island out of an old IKEA bookshelf we had and added the "wood" laminate top.  The space under the counter has a rolling rack where we store cat food.  The cats also have a covered litter box under there.  We also have a second covered litter box under my office desk and a third one in the bedroom.  

 

The kitchen -- my husband used our old IKEA bookshelves from past apartments and pulled apart/hacked more IKEA shelves for the walls.  The only cost was the L brackets and the industrial stick-back carpeting so the cats don't slip and slide.  





 

I have trained both of the cats to fetch but only Shadow likes to show off for photos.



 

This is yet another IKEA bookshelf, this time with holes cut into it so the cats can weave through to the top.
