The cat house concept was born from a love for my cat and the natural instinct’s a feline has to be in a safe elevated location. The cat house provides a means to access a protected comfortable location for feline activities of elevated observation, sleep etc.

Details:
The cat house’s structural elements are abstracted down to the bare minimum. Four sets of double struts originate from a hub, which slides over the supporting central tube column. The struts angle up to support twin angles, which project from the central hub at a right angle. These twin angles in turn provide edge support for the four triangular sections, which comprise the “bomb proof” hardwood platform. These struts penetrate between the twin angles and continue up to support the roof above.

The ramp is hardwood to match the platform and structured from below with an aluminum tube. The tube connects to the ramp using “U” brackets. The ramp and supporting tube structure is fabricated in two pieces to meet maximum length shipping requirements.

Materials:
Roof…..galvanized sheet metal
Super Structure (tube column, hub, struts, angles & brackets)…..anodized aluminum
Ramp and platform…..Pau Lope (ironwood) hardwood
Hardware…..stainless steel
