DIY MEGA CAT TREE | MODERN BUILDS
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
How to build a cat tower that's over five feet tall! I built this modern style cat house for my parent's new cat while I was visiting over the holidays. I think it look pretty cool and so far Polly the cat has been hanging out in it a little bit more each day. I'll leave links below to free plans on my website you can build something similar! Thanks for watching :)

MODERN BUILDS
Hi, My name is Mike Montgomery and I'm a MAKER; a designer, builder, and full-time content creator. Accessibility is my focus with Modern Builds, not simply accessibility of designs, but accessibility in materials, information, and projects themselves. I've focused on creating furniture and DIY projects that are simple enough that any beginner maker can accomplish, yet interesting enough that any expert might be inspired. Building and making is becoming less and less of an exclusive hobby and profession. My goal is to reduce that separation even further.

I would wrap that tallest post, they really like to stretch and scratch at the same time. Mine will climb up to the top using that one post too. But I’m nit picking, excellent job!

I was thinking the same thing. The low scratching posts won't get used because they like to stand up on hind feet and stretch. the section of my scratching post with the most 'damage' is about 18 to 20 inches up.

I was going to say that and carpet the whole thing. But cats are different and maybe his likes this.
What ever happened to the plans?
awesome! waiting for the plan, my cats would love one of this
My first pet was a tortoise shell calico cat named Polly. She was such a special and smart cat. We had her for 20 years. I shed a tear when you announced the name and she looks just like our Polly. 🥲 we miss her so much.

Tortoiseshell and Calico are two different color patterns of cats. Tortoiseshells (Torties) contain three different colors, but are intermixed in a way that resembles the shell of a tortoise. Typically, their coats contain a predominantly blue base and do no have distinct patches, but rather intermix with each other while remaining identifiable. Calicos contain three different colors as well, but have a primarily white base with distinct color patches. Of course there are varying degrees of each pattern, but those are the basic differences. Not trying to be pedantic here, just trying to educate. Fun Fact: Both color patterns are on almost exclusively female cats. In the extremely rare instance that a male cat contains a tri-color pattern, it is almost always sterile. This has to do with dominant and recessive genes and the color orange being tied exclusively to the X chromosome.

Our tortie is going to be 16 years old this year.
Nice. Hamster trail for the cat. A nice tube to connect the boxes. I love kittys.
Where is the plan plz?
Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Keep making. God bless.
This is an attractive cat tree, Mike. I'm thinking that Polly will enjoy it. Thanks for the video.
waiting for the plans!
Pre-built Outdoor Catios/Tunnels are so expensive, would love to see you make it more affordable! Love your videos Mike! 😁
Hi! I couldn't find the plans at your website... Are they still available? Where can I find? Thanks!
Perfect timing for this video! My partner and I are moving in together and I want to build his cat a new tower!
Love this project. I suggest some kind of a pillow cover. Wash pillow cover and ready. I have 4 cats. Greetings from Puerto Rico. 🇵🇷
awww Torties are my favorite color pattern.
Mike!!! Where's our plans dude? I'm trying to build this guy but guessing at the sizes of wood
Hello. Nice work! Now this is my style of decor.... Am I missing the pdf, cant seemt to locate? Thanks
Awesome work on this one, mike!
Omg I love this. I've been holding off on buying a cat tree because they're either too ugly or way too expensive. Definitely going to try making this!!
That cat tree is beautiful. Your projects are always so well done. If the cat doesn't show interest, you can put some catnip on it. I had to with my 4 cats. Now they love it.
Love the tree! I would love to see one that allows at least 2 cats with a full area to sleep. I certainly will build this one. But keep these ones coming
I have a big and tall 21lb male Ragamuffin whose feet are almost the size of mine! Also have another rescue who is a 10 lb female Siamese. I bought a cat tree when the male was around 3 yrs old and only 12 lbs. It did not last 6 months. It was carpet over particle board so the screws did not hold it together. I kept gluing and repairing it until I have up. I think this design just might work and last a while. I agree about making covers for the pillows. Your mom has probably already figured that out by now lol Thanks so much for the design!!
i can´t find the plans, any link please?
Awww, I love the cat!
I will make sure to look into it thanks for the idea
Hey Mike where are the plans? Oh so wanting to build
Looks awesome! 🔥 Love the stop motion beauty shot!
Great project
Well done 👏
This is so cute!! 🥰
wheres the plans
Looks good nice job
I love this. I’ve been looking for something to make for my bunny and everything on the market has carpet
Awww one of my favourite videos. Awww you're cat is beautiful & just like my cat, they just don't care until you get home 😂 thanx again I'm learning alot of tips from you.
Re: Plans They can’t be located here or on your website. Several of us are interested. Thanks!
Oh my god your a life saver been wanting to do this for a while
That's one nice kitty
Where's the pdf?
Nice, money well spent (or saved). Qute cat btw.
Cat's gonna be screaming... "Top of da World Ma!!!, Top of da World"!!! Pretty cool Mike. Hoping all is well Bud, Dirty Jersey out!!
Plans?
Am I the only one who can’t find the link to the plans?
The cat 🐈⬛ reaction at the end of the video is the most cat-like behavior ever 😹 🐱: “I will not endorse your cat tree human” 🤣 That looks simple enough that I might be able to do it, cool!!! Thanks so much for the idea! 😊
Great video ☺️ You haven't posted the plans ? I can't find it...
where can i find the detailed plans for this build?
Is Poly short for "Varathane 1 qt. Clear Satin Water-Based Polyurethane"?
@DumbfoundedMadman

"Poly" is typically short for either any polyurethane finish, or a polyamorous relationship lifestyle. I believe it's the former in this particular case.

Good question, I was wondering that myself, lol. As I was skimming through the comments, I actually thought you were talking about the cat 🤣😂 I think I used too much glue today lol. Any hu, Hi from Aotearoa (New Zealand) 👋🫣
Thanks for this. I am planning on making one and I’m so tired of carpet ones. I want to make the base of mine with a handmade dog crate.
Super cute cat! The tower looks expensive. I bet she will get a lot of use out of it.
I love these videos
Came for the Cat, Stayed for the Project. Nice work my dude.
Me: *waiting the entire month of december without a video hoping that means january will be wall to wall modern builds bangers* Mike: CAT TOWER!!!!!
Drat! I just ordered a new cat tree! But I might make this one anyway!
Are the plans for this available? I didn’t see them.
Hola yo me dedico a elaborar, rascadores- y me encantó tu vídeo aparte del trabajo, por las herramientas.
I myself, would add some carpet to parts of it , it helps give the kitty a place to scratch instead of your furniture 👍🐈⬛looks great,
oh you should do more of these.
Great job. A sweet job for a sweet girl. Polly must be very happy 😃.
thank you thank you
Really like your 'sewing' dude 😂
This only confirms my suspicions. We are meant for each other. Swoon. 🥰 🐈⬛
Nice
Love that cat tree and want to try making it on my own, but i cant find it in ur projects or the pdf you mentioned in the beginning of the video, has it been uploaded yet?
Build a bookshelf headboard next! 😇
Where are the plans? I can't find them and I'd like to build this with my son.
Please upload plans!!!
Are the plans available? Cant find them :(
Yessssssss
Cool stuff, and he ain't lying those things are like 150-200 bucks at the store
Hi, where did you find the wooden dowels?
Nice! My cats prefer 2 holes in a box/house instead of one. They feel trapped if there's only 1.
Also, it shows you can make cat towers into something stylish. The ones covered in carpet are good too, but not as aesthetically pleasing as this one.
Surprise that You didn't use 2x4!!!! Haha
This looks so nice where can I find the plans for this?

Awesome !!! can you please provide drawing with dimensions please?
Hello! did you ever post the plans for this?
Looks cute. The cats want use the bottom rope much. Sorry your furniture will have to do for scratching. Top bed is nice for perching, but not for sleeping - which is what cats like to spend most of their time doing.
Did this plan ever go up?!
This is my comment to appease the great algorithm
❤😸❤😸❤😸
you shouldn't use synthetic rope for scratching posts.
“going up tonight” 2 years later 😔
Wooden dowels dimension diameter or radius
Oh my, watching you use a circular saw to cut those dowels was very painful. Great build nevertheless!
What no Gary tower?
This isn't bad, but I actually like the style that Mau Pets has a bit more since it uses a more natural wood on the poles, but that's more of an aesthetic think my cats could care less they use my target shelves to climb most of the time forget anything I give them. Assholes.
Hi
Meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow.
Still no plans 😢
Come on Mike. Step up your sewing game. You're better than hot glue
I’m Mexican
