Forget all those fancy apartments going up all over town - the real money's in luxury cat cocoons. Gothamist was sent a link to a "Modern Cat PlayHouse," which looks insanely cool, and we totally wanted it, but then we got to the bottom of the item and it was listed at a whopping $279 (or about 25 scratchpads). Excuse us while we go down to our local bodega to get some free boxes. Besides, is a modern playhouse really that much better for our cat than a regular old shoebox? Maybe we can even try constructing this ourselves with lots and lots of glue. Poor kitty would probably end up stuck to the creation though.

hmm, they use lasers to cut the cardboard. i think mort would end up chasing the laser around and it might result in a severed tail or something.
I think it's craft time!
Cats reek, as do cat houses.
It's actually pretty easy to make. The company didn't even try to hide the fact that it's rather symetrical and can be laid out in a couple of hours, cut in a couple more and glued in 30 minutes. It wouldn't take that much glue, you would want to do the center areas of each form but the edges should be left unglued because you don't want it on the kitties paws.
My cats would seriously go nuts over that thing.
I bought one of those corrugated cardboard things for my cats at a pet store in NJ. It was not nearly as fancy - it's a giant cardboard square with a cardboard circle in the middle but my cats scratch and love that thing as if it fed them.
And to imagine that I balked at the $32 price tag.
