Make-them-yourself-Cat Forts!!!!! Contest for the best fort?

[Jan D & Squeaky]

Hi Everybody, I, the cat, Squeaky am so bored, there's nothing to do at home and mommy is really boring too. She's home for the pandemic and sits around looking at that darned computer screen a lot.

Mommy has an idea that she thinks is a secret from me, it's building a cat fort. First she was going to use ladders and blankets but now she's decided to include cardboard boxes. There will be treats, and catnip. Probably some new toys too. It'll be in a separate room in the house where I can only go part of the time. Wow she wishes she could get an aquarium in there LOL!

Anyway she found some photos online of similar forts for ideas. AND maybe, just maybe, to inspire other cat parents on this site to create forts for their kitties, she could come up with some small prize for the best fort? Maybe a $20 Amazon gift card? Other people could donate prizes too.....

Let me know what you think! Here is a link to some fort photos:

Cheers and happy new year!

OMG LOL! I love all of these fort pictures! I wish I had room to build my own.

Just drape a blanket over a chair or back of couch. My kits love the blanket over the back of couch so it goes over the seat cushion. It's more of a tent. They lay under it, then one who likes to lay on top of it on other cat.

I like some of them but mine would never go for any of them. They don't like boxes. Go figure.

Cat's that don't like boxes? What's wrong with them????

They are idiots. They have never gone in a box. Maybe it reminds them of being in carrier. One will climb on top of a bix. I have tried to make chewy boxes appealing, cut holes, put toys in them, bunch up the paper. They just aren't interested. Tux use to like bags, not anymore though.

LOL !!!! I keep threatening them that I will return them from where they came. Tripper from a bush and pregnant, Tux from the woods with broken tail, PJ from the sewer with 3 1/2 legs. They don't seem to listen to me.

Can't keep ours out of them - in the photo below Lady is in the box and Mac seems to be wondering if he can tape it up and return her to Amazon!
