LadyCrimson Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 1 hour ago, Gfted1 said: We have a 7ft multi-level cat tree in the living room next to the back slider and our cats love it. They dont use the two "cat houses" on the bottom level but the scratching posts and flat lounging areas are a big hit. I think the height makes them feel superior too. My past cats just used the set of three six foot high bookshelves, jumping/scrabbling up and then squabbling over who got which bookshelf. The one closest to the path us humans walked past all the time was the most coveted. Some would keep trying to reach out to whack hubby's head as he walked by. I am too short, they couldn't touch me. Cats definitely like heights. 2 “Things are as they are.

Cats definitely like heights. My cats completely ignore any scratchingposts, climbing stuff or anything of that sort, but they do love the leather chairs and corners of the sofa and recliner. -.- The only time I've actually managed to get them onto the climbing tree was with catnip. But they do love climbing up the walls of the house to my bedroom window Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L.

Yeah, its a vast scale to think of the events he 'lived' through (even though generally speaking he wasn't actually there, its just that's a lot of history). I also thought it was fascinating (dunno if it was this article, or another I read on him) that the reason so many of these Tortoises were given as gifts is they were easy to keep alive and they were stackable. the idea of a ship's hold stacked with turtles is just wild. 1 I cannot - yet I must.
