We wanted to create an urban, streetscape inspired cat tree that would help any indoor cat feel at home in the city. Original photographs/graphics screen printed in layers are combined with graffiti styling to give this cat tree life. With the vivid, graphic approach it becomes just as much a form of urban sculpture as a functional climb a kitty deserves.
