Contest Winner Moves on After Tragedy | Cat Room Makeover
I've always said that environmental enrichment for cats can be life-changing, and here's our proof! Kate Benjamin and I looked for stories from people like you who wanted us catify their space. Through the contest, choosing the winner, working with them, and seeing the results, I can say it again with a big exclamation point: catifying your life changes your life and the life of your cat in very meaningful ways! Watch this and tell me if you agree!
Special thanks to Kate and Armarkat for making this dream a reality!

So grateful to everyone who entered the contest and honored to have spent time with Anai & Kibs. Kate and I loved designing a catified room for them!
i came from the live lol it was awesome
I did too, I met Kate at Cat Camp and she autographed my Catify to Satisfy book 🙏🏼❤️🐾
Happy to see you today as I was just looking out my window & planning a back yard catio through that window! 🪟
I do not have a cat. I want one tho!
OH sweetie I'm so sorry for your loss!!! She sounds like an amazing kitty!!! She's watching for you both on the Rainbow Bridge. Me & my two are sending hugs to you! 🐾🐾😪🥺😿💕🌹🌹🌹
Their story really hit hard for me because my cat very suddenly passed this February. He was only 6 and one week the vet said he was perfectly healthy and 2 weeks later we had to put him down. He was my best friend :(. It was 100% my worst nightmare.
I am so sorry. Hugs to you.
Could not even imagine your pain with such a monumental loss. 😢 how heartbreaking, especially when it's so sudden. I hope you will learn to live another kitty once again. Do they know what happened with your baby? 🐈
💔😥
My four-year-old cat died two weeks ago very suddenly from what turned out to be an asthma attack, I got him to vet, they him on oxygen and stable but he was very fragile, he came home 3 days later and had a second attack and within 15 minutes, he had stopped breathing. Heart Breaking. I had him since he was 3 weeks old, he was my best little buddy.
That’s so traumatic to witness that kind of death. I started tearing up because I’m still grieving my cat who passed away from cancer in December. It’s a hurt I wish no one could experience but cats give us so much love. So happy for this cat parent and kitties! 💗 I wish you healing!
I think you picked the perfect recipient, my heart...
my cat won't climb on his new cat tree 😢 ... he is attached to the old one, is there something i can do
Please we want more of these makeovers!
I was owned by 3 cats, but sadly 1 passed in 2020 at 17+yrs old from that horrible thromboembolism. And just this past New Years Eve 2023, my 15 1/2 yr old passed, & then just 10 days later Jan 10, 2024 my 16 1/2 yr old soul cat passed. Im sooo heart broken, so I felt & understand Anai's heartache & sadness. 💔😭
It could be fun if you make some "rate my subscribers catification" videos first to laugh of us and of course give us some tips to improved our setup. Nice job as usual JG.
My 10-year old seemingly healthy cat one day suddenly fell into coma and died a few hours later. We think maybe a massive stroke or aneurysm but we’ll never know.
So sorry for your loss. A similar thing happened to my Russian Blue. She was less than 2 when she suddenly went blind. She died the next day.😢😢😢😢
2 years ago my tabby Lynx just dropped dead suddenly at 7 years old, was perfectly happy and playful a minute before, I didn't see what happened just heard a thud and found him by the fridge, I think he might have somehow fell and internally decapitated himself, was a Friday evening so could not get an autopsy, just buried him a few hours later
I have a superhighway around my lounge room I built my Lucy occasionally uses, Lynx would have loved it
I have 21 cats due being left 2 pregnant cats and during covid not being able to get in to get them fixed. For a whole year and also no vehicle and escaping cars that adds up to a lot of cats. I tried to find homes for some but after some fails I became attached. My cats are getting bored I really wish to be able to do this for them ..
They did such a great job. How heartbreaking about her other cat but hopefully she can get another cat that gets along with the one she has. They definitely deserve this, they did so much work. Looks beautiful. Good luck Anai.
I'm very sure the winner uses exclusively they/them, it's even next to their name on Zoom in the first few minutes of the video. But yes, this was great for them and their cats. (Before you argue about how another person feels most comfortable being known and addressed, they/them for singular individuals was commonly used and accepted as early as the late 14th century and records of an individual choosing to go by they/them go back to the 18th century.)
So happy Anai won this, well deserved and great job! 💕
This was the best video!!! It gave me help for doing this for Lola. ❤❤ She's been double digits for a few years, very active still because we make sure to get daily playtime in. We play hide and seek. Now I see how much can do her wall safely Thank you friend r the video
I feel for them. I also just lost my cat Harrison in February, also sudden, also 4 years old, also my first cat. He either had bone marrow cancer or an autoimmune disease where he was killing his red blood cells and it hit hard and fast. It’s the worst thing I have ever been through. I adopted him February 2022 and he passed 10 days before his two year adoption anniversary this year. Glad they were selected for this and wish them nothing but the best ❤
Me too.. I just lost my 3 year old to IMHA/suspected cancer. Blood transfusions and steroids worked just for a month and he went downhill again very sadly. I know their pain and def deserved a catify makeover 🥺❤ my cat passed just before his one year adoption anniversary. I’ve never felt so much pain and grief in my whole life. He was stable on meds but in one night suddenly went down hill- he didn’t eat his dinner and began breathing heavily and I rushed him to emergency clinic. They said they have done everything and just couldn’t help anymore and it doesn’t look good but see how he is in the morning. I took him home. I was with him the whole time and he just got worse- I was going to call the vet in the morning to come and put him to sleep but he passed in my arms at 4am. I was actually physically ill and couldn’t get out of bed for a few days after that. While he was getting treatments and in and out of emergency care I lost a lot of weight too from stress. Therapy helped.. I just adopted two unsocialized 6month old kittens last month from a shelter. They need a lot of love but it’s helping me heal. I think of them as his siblings and he is watching over them protecting them ❤ what I went though was really hard but I wouldn’t change a thing in retrospect. He was vet-checked on adoption but you never really know and I’m glad I didn’t know. I loved him with all my heart-I’m glad we had a very happy short time together ❤ Mr bean is always in my heart. You taught me so much and helped me be strong! Our cats are the best teachers.
I am so sorry for your loss. Such a similar story to what happened to me. I had been bringing Harrison in to the vet for urinary issues, dental issues, concerns about his kidneys (turns out he was born with only one) and they never caught or suspected he could have this autoimmune disease. He was last seen December and passed two months later. He also stopped eating suddenly and just didn’t seem like himself. I took him into the vet and advocated for blood tests and ultrasounds and before I knew it, he was hospitalized for 3 days. Given a blood transfusion, steroids, antibiotics and a feeding tube. He improved on day two but by day three the anemia was back, spiked a fever, vitals weren’t good, stopped eating, was in pain and not reproducing his own red blood cells either. So I had to make the hardest decision of my life and euthanize. Did it with him in my arms at the emergency hospital. I had also just gone through a break up with my boyfriend of 4.5 years, moved out of my home, into a new home and Harrison got sick and passed all within a 4.5 week time span. I have been quite depressed. Luckily I have family and friends and a great therapist for support. I am in the process of adopting another shy cat that has been passed up in foster care for 8 months because he’s shy and not sure about people, just like my Harrison. I too am glad I didn’t know at the time that Harrison had underlying health issues. I was already unsure adopting a cat that was so scared of humans. He really blossomed once we had formed a strong bond and trust. If I had to do it all over again I would in a heartbeat. He was and will always be the love of my life. Thank you for sharing your story with me ❤
Hugs
Congrats Anai 🎉 wishing them all the best
Anai, I’m so glad you won! Your apartment looks amazing and I hope you find the perfect addition to your family. Your story is heartbreaking and very familiar. My husband and I lost our 2 year old baby Ollie a few years ago now, and it happened almost exactly how you described: she was fine all day, snuggling like normal on my husband and then when we went upstairs to bed. She followed us up like normal, and then suddenly she veered toward my open closet but collapsed before she made it inside. We knew she was gone before we even left the house for the emergency vet, but still went even though there was nothing anyone could do. Only hint to what happened is that the vet heard a slight murmur at her previous checkup but it was in the heart of the COVID pandemic when we weren’t allowed inside, so they chalked it up to her being stressed and planned to monitor it going forward…she died less than 6 months later. Then 6 months after that we lost our 12yo cat Humphrey, who had cancer, and then a week later my parents lost their cat Willow to cancer as well. As traumatizing as that entire experience was, losing 3 so close together, we’ve since added 3 to our family (for a total of 5, as Humphrey and Ollie both had siblings we adopted with them). Losing them at any age sucks horribly, but giving kitties a home when they need it is worth however limited the time is we get with them ❤
This is such a beautiful space. Anai did such beautiful work. They are very to have such a beautiful relationship with their Cats and I am so happy that you picked her. Their Story was so powerful.
Oh Anai, Im so very sorry for your loss. I was crying with you when you explained what happened. Im so glad you won. Much love from Scotland. ❤
Congrats to the hexa winner! Thank you Jackson!!
Congrats Monico haven! Thank you Jackson for all your help!
Congrats to monaco! Also wanting to say, I have raised and rehab’d 3 cats throughout my childhood with my mother, one of which is my furbaby mittens! Mittens is 16 and thanks to jackson once I realised she was getting older I immediately tried to accomidate her as best as I could, she loves the new “nest” (bed) we got her 😊
My cat recently died yesterday morning and seeing this warms my heart. 😢❤
What a wonderful experience to watch and see. My heart breaks for her loss. May they enjoy the journey.
OMG... That last clip was everything of Kibs just hanging out on the scratching bar not a care in the world. What a heartbreaking story but wonderful story at the same time. I love the fact she took the time to keep everything as naturally safe using like real berry juice to stain with.
OMGosh I am crying, laughing a bundle of emotions for them!! Jackson you never fail to amaze me. My first kitty came to me when I was 3 years old. Melissa and I grew up together and lived 21 years with her sweet self going to bed together EVERY NIGHT. Today I am blessed with Patch and Nelly, who needed whom more my son and I still aren't sure😂😂. Their story is one of sadness of being abandoned by people who moved from a home and did not home this brother and sister duo. My niece had her eye on what was happening on her walk to work. Before I knew it I was getting ready for a new family and keeping it a secret from my son. My WHOLE FAMILY spent Christmas Eve with us in our new Apartment waiting for the big surprise. Not only did I bring out the babies but my daughter had gotten her brother a beautiful Beta fish ( Bobbee) We all laughed in tears! Today Patch and Nelly are 5 years old healthy and happy. Thank you for teaching me so much more about kitties as after Melissa I thought what more do I need to know RIGHT? Because of you Jackson I have cleared out their toy box, changed from cat litter to pine pellets ( so much healthier for the whole family) and so many other tips from your knowledge. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! I am currently looking for a new cat tree. Do you like the faux fur, carpet, or just bare wood? I don't think I like the faux fur as this is their second one,so hard to clean etc.. My goal is straight up catification. Can't wait to adorn our living room with ideas I have seen from your videos. Oh, love you Caroline🧡🙏 Shelley, Oregon gal🌲P.S. What I would give to have a conversation with you Mr. J tee hee😂
How long have you been using the pine pellets ? I think I read somewhere that the pellet dust/shavings can be harmful for cats but I imagine standard kitty litter isn’t all that much less harmful . Do you get your pellet from a feed store or the typical pet supply store ?
Feed store. My babies are much better with them!
OMG, I was holding our new little kitties. Bella and Luna, little sisters watching this. I'm crying and so happy for this person. You two are so amazing thank you for what you do.
This is indescribable. Thank you for letting us share this space with you. It feels so “catlovingly” intimate. ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Thank you soooo much.
THANKs Jackson😊 Cats are Wonderful FurBabys
This was a wonderful idea!!! So happy for Anai and wish them and their kitty a bright future. PS that berry stain is inspirational! ✨
You definitely chose the right person. This gal did justice to Catification! This all brought back the painful loss of my dearest companion of 20 years, my deaf white kitty Talc. He slept in my arms every night for 20 years. Loosing him was my most critical 💔 loss of my entire life. I have lost both parents whom I was very close to and was caregiver to my dad for 4 years. It's almost unimaginable that the loss of a pet can impact a person to the extent that it can. I cried every day. Just about the time I thought I was through crying, I saw a blanket or something that was his and I burst into tears all over again. I realized to go on I simply had to have a cat in the house. On my next birthday, I visited an animal shelter and came home with my birthday present 🎁 💕 to myself... the best 👌 👍 gift ever... another cat. I still think of and miss my boy terribly, probably every day, but I no longer cry every day. I choose to believe he is waiting at the infamous Rainbow Bridge, and hopefully, I will see him again when I get to Heaven, as well as my precious Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Meantime I am busy parenting my little sweet pea cat princesses, Eden and Chloe, and I have a 10 year old amazing great neice, Eliza to dote on several days a week. I'd like to say thank you, Jackson, for all you do for the feline community that has been overlooked until you came on the scene. Thanks 🎉❤🎉
I love the image of kibs lounging, draped over the horizontal wall scratching post. Great outcome.
Congratulations Anai!!🎉🎉🎉And to Kibs!!🎣🤗🫂
I'm really glad you did this for this very well deserved person. Loved to see the finished project. I'm happy for her. ❤❤❤
The same thing happened to one of my cats when he was 8, the one moment he was licking himself, the next he just made a terrifying cartwheel and collapsed and started moaning. I ran in my payamas towards the vet and felt him pass away in my arms. It was a brain hemmorhage. It was very frightening. And he was such a sweet boy. Since then if one of my cats makes sudden sounds of scratching and making zoomie sounds sometimes I still jump up and have to check if they are actually playing or something bad might be happening. It gives me the jitters still.
Congratulations to your lucky winner🎉😻
Beautiful. . .but also. . .thank you. Affordable shelving is SO hard to find. . may need to pick some of those up when I start the superhighway.
This looks like it turned out so great for both Anai and Kibs! You could see how much Kibs was enjoying the new space and how comfortable she was with her new vertical space. And Anai was so gracious. They were just such a loving cat parent, and obviously the perfect person to be selected for the new furniture and design. Cheers to you both, and good luck with finding the perfect companion to share your space! 😊
WOW!! What an AWESOME transformation. Beautiful.
Just wonderful! That baby looks so happy! 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
Wow! This looks amazing! I want this for my cats!
What an amazing cat parent & story!!! Touched me so profoundly. Congratulations on your new space!!
I have cat trees, cat tunnels, window perches, catnip toys and wands, laser toys, etc, I need to add cat friendly perches on my walls. I know cats love heights. Lately, I had to rearrange the top of my china cabinet because some of my cats use that access to the other side of the room. I love how this catified room turned out. It's such a fun room for the kitties to hang out in. Awesome video😊
My little boy loves to jump on my China cabinet. Neither of my girls have done that. I have 2 cat trees(tall), a window perch, 3 scratcher perches, and the back of my couch to lounge on, but he is a very active climber.
@KarenGaylor4712 It's funny you say that. It's only some males that will go up there. My females stick to the perches and the divets in a cat tree.
@@KarenGaylor4712Using furniture like end tables, dressers, filing cabinets & bookcases (w/ tops cleared off) to make a "cat hiway" may help? End tables with a bottom shelf make great "cat caves," just add a pet bed or blanket. Just don't use suction cup shelves/ hammocks on windows. It's safer to put a cat tree, table or small bookcase under/in front of it instead 👍😺👍
This was such a fantastic contest, and Anai knocked it out of the ballpark!!! How awesome is it that Jackson and Kate were able to help them create an awesome home for both Anai and Kibs!
Oh my goodness. I’m a little late watching this but SO happy for them! My heart truly goes out to you for losing your fur baby so young and abruptly. I’m an empath and I definitely cried when you shared your story. I lost my fur baby who was 15 years old and I thought witnessing her being put down was the worst thing ever. But what you went through is truly the worst and I can’t even imagine the pain you felt experiencing that. Thank you so much for being vulnerable with us and I’m so glad you got everything you needed for your fur baby. You did an amazing job! 💙
I need more videos like this! Bravo, Anai!
10/10 video. It just really sucks that someone started cutting onions and kept going till the end. Best wishes for this little fur-family. ❤️
so glad the other cat has recovered. thanks lovely person.
I appreciate the ideas. I need to get my boys up on the walls and our of my way so I can get some housekeeping done 😹 You know the cat's idea of housekeeping is to shuffle the mail and let it scatter randomly .... Roll through the laundry, before and after it's been washed and dried ... Chase the broom and mop ... Jump on top of the fridge to show you what to pick for dinner, even if it means jumping into the freezer when you're being dense and aren't picking up on their communications ... And my favorite: jumping onto the counter as you're washing dishes by hand, and stepping right in between your arms to supervise your washing. Of course, you can't see what you're washing, but the cat will let you know when it's clean enough 😹
Just lost our 6 yr old rescue Bengal cross gorgeous Benji on Monday with saddle thrombus peculiar to cats it was so sudden and unexpected one minute he was laying on the chair next to me as i bathed and then his back legs cramped and he screamed out as his legs collapsed. We got him to the vets but his breathing was now obviously laboured and his heart was failing. I cuddled him to the end telling him how much we loved him as our vet gently let him sleep forever.The shock of losing him so suddenly and we felt so helpless to help him except to allow him peace. You deserve this make over and we hope you and your cat and your new cat get loads of fun from it. We have built a Catfresco for our cats we still have two but will always miss our Benji 💔💔💔
Who else came here from the live?👇🏿👇🏿👇🏿
I did! This is a great video!
i did i want to cry for her 😢
@@serenitytrek It’s awesome. Anai is so sweet and deserving of this lovely makeover. So happy for them!
@@marywatkins9438 I still have chill bumps! 🤗
I did too!! 😊
What a beautiful episode. Thank you for the inspiration. ❤
4 years is so young. im sorry for your loss.
This is so amazing! So hard to watch the beginning, but so happy with the ending. I lost my baby (7 yrs) last year. He was an absolute cuddle bug. Tried getting him cat trees and such, but he only ever wanted to be where I was. In preparation for my new cat, I declutter my house and turned old furniture into cat towers. Really glad I did because the new cat is sooo energetic and loves climbing. I want to try dying some of my stuff, too. Always great to see happy cats. I hope we get to see an update with them and their cat later.
So heartwarming 🥰 Blessings to you and kitty, Anai!
Someday, when I live on my own (live with my mother right now), my cat will have a space like that. She's a climber who lives up high, and she would have so much fun with this.
Maybe you can use furniture like end tables, dressers, filing cabinets & bookcases (w/tops cleared off) to make a "cat hiway"? End tables with a bottom shelf make great "cat caves," just add a pet bed or blanket. Just don't use suction cup shelves/ hammocks on windows. It's safer to put a cat tree, table or small bookcase under/in front of it.
@@tammyrawdon3587 We have 4 cat trees and other things for her to explore, plus a screened-in porch. I just can't put anything on the wall to make a full highway.
@dragonofmordor I guessed as much. That's why I mentioned lining up furniture (with the tops cleared off) along the wall so they can walk/ jump from one to another. Even just one or two pieces (next to the cat trees?) will give them a place to perch bc cats love to be up high.
Oh my gosh, way to make us all cry. So amazing. ❤
I can't say much since my Ghost girl died at the same age. I had just brought in a new little fur ball that I named Myst about a week before my little girl Ghost died. In some ways I think that it was my fault that Ghost died. I still miss her dreadfully. I can see why you picked this young lady for the help. I wish that I can catify my apartment better for my fur children. However, I have done what I could under the last management company of my apartment complex. I'm glad that you are still helping other cat guardians! I think that it's awesome that you're still helping others.
A feral mom had kittens under my dining room table after I churu-lured her into my home! Omg! Now we have 7 cats!!!
Hopefully you have lovingly gotten them spayed and neutered. Continue to love the energy of them!
I'm here from the live. It's such a bittersweet story. Awesome challenge.
(83) Wow. Quite the transformation. A VERY deserving winner.
My cat needs a catio and a catified room! She'd be in heaven.
If you're a renter (as most people are), you can use furniture like end tables, dressers, filing cabinets & bookcases (w/tops cleared off) to make a "cat hiway." End tables with a bottom shelf make great "cat caves," just add a pet bed or blanket. Just don't use suction cup shelves/ hammocks on windows. A cat tree, table or small bookcase under/ in front of it is much safer. If you have a porch, enclose it with chicken wire for a "catio"... it also helps protect them if they bolt out the door.
So many of us can relate and feel the sorrow Anai shares at the loss of her first cat. ❤ Thank you for sharing your story and for giving your cats the most loving home, Anai! I hope your catified space is amazing!
Loat my boy suddenly at nearly the age of 5. Knew him since he was a baby in 2019. I have been catifying my space for his best buddie that I took in when we moved. He also is still searching for Angel but I will get him a new buddy when the place is finished. So happy for her!
Thanks for doing this!
I lost a beloved cat to a saddle thrombosis many years ago, and it was as sudden as she described the loss of her cat😢
That is amazing. Nice job, everyone. 👏🏻
18:38 That is stunning! I love the sunflower decor as well. So cute.
10:20 Having three cats definitely helped me to keep my home decluttered. Great point!
You can see at the end, her cat wants that to continue over the other door!! 🥰
This is so incredible thank you for everything you do you’ve changed all of their lives for the better 🥰 I had a question about “my cat from hell” I’ve tried to do my own research but couldn’t find much Has there ever been a cat you truly couldn’t help for whatever reason? Thank you! Love you and your show in the future when I get a cat I’m confident in my ability to know exactly what to do and catify the hell out of the place 😁❤️
Can't wait to purchase!!!!
Turned out amazing 🤩
Wow, that was so lovely 😻
Not only a touching video, but a great tutorial resource
13:13 Wow, that is a really sharp design! Love the over the door detail, and the steps. Also like the spots in the corner where the cat can lounge.
Besides making me cry very inspirational.
Concats to the winner!
Wonderful. Congrats
So wonderful. Thank you for saving this kittie, thank you Jackson Galaxy, Kate and Armarkat. Can't wait to see a follow up when she has rescue #2😊❤ The catified space looks amazing.
Congrats Anai! Your Kibs looks like my Princess Fluff!!! I so want to do some catifying around my house this summer.
Love the staining of the wood. It was beautiful and inspiring.
I definitely cried
Good on all of you❤
This story hits hard for me. Ive been crying for three days because my baby has been sick since the 15th of March. We fought so hard to get to pay day so we could get her to the vet. She was not eating on her own. The vet suspects kidney failure, but that's academic at this point. Couldn't afford to do the blood tests to confirm. We brought her home and over the last two days she has gone from stable to being unable to eat, walk, poop, pee. I can't bear to see her struggle and hurt. I promised her that if she got too sick to be happy then I would help her cross the rainbow bridge. She goes to the vet tomorrow and I can't stop crying. Please keep my little Pyrrha in your thoughts.
My heart is heavy for you. It hurts so much to witness the pain of our loved ones. Especially the most innocent of us!
I would die for Kibs, I'm barely a minute into the video but she's so gorgeous!
I'm soon moving to a house and I can't wait to catify my space there
We lost a 4 year old as well. We had adopted him from the shelter and were not made aware that he had a heart murmur. In the end, this was the issue that took him. He got a blood clot in his front leg and while the vet said it could be treated, he would stay in hospital for a few days because of treatment, but because it was due to a murmur it was 100% likely that it would return continually and my daughter and I didn't think that was fair at all to Brody so we made the decision to euthanise him. It was very hard on us both and on our older cat, Cody.
I did! Yay! Loving this video!
Last fall our sweet Minnie was 12 when we had to make the decision to let her go to heaven when we woke up to blood all over her face and paws and horrible sounds of struggling to breathe. The vet said it looked like a nasal tumor. One month later we were blessed to have since taken in a brother and sister pair of kittens from outside we were involved in the neighborhood TNR program. Please we're looking forward to a follow up sometime with this precious story.
What an amazing room!!
I just lost my Lewis James earlier this month at only 4 years old as well. He got sick and didn’t make it until his blood and urine came back from the lab. He was my first cat. It’s so hard! This is awesome to see. I’m hoping to add another cat to my family soon. My Shelby Laraine (2 year old calico) misses her brother and playmate.
I’m wondering if the terrible vaccines (even worse than usual) are causing early cancers and diseases in cats that should be otherwise healthy .
@@SleeplessinOC yes. Rabies and distemper only.
Don't have animals if you're not going to care enough to properly vaccinate them
we have a screened in porch... cats allowed....but there are a few walls and our cats would love to have play and not just look outside! I never thought of that!
Our boy loves his cat trees and walkways indoors, but his new favorite game is to kitty parkoure in the very large oak tree in my folk's back yard. We are still amazed to watch him do his acrobatics in that tree. My heavens this story broke my heart. I hope Kibbs lives a long, happy life.
Hopefully we get an update when the new cat arrives!❤❤
So awesome. Glad to see Anai & Kibs are happy with the results. ❤ How can this be done if no nails in wall are allowed?
Congrats to monacohaven!🎉
@JacksonGalaxy that was an amazing video 😊 it definitely touches my heart and made me hold a cat while listening to her story. The project came out great! Houdini and I thank you for being able to help so many and we will definitely keep watching 🐾
Sorry for your loss ☹️ I hope the cattification will allow you to accomodate Kibbs' needs and open thr future for her furry companion.
Amazing !
That’s awesome❤

Kate’s Witcher necklace is awesome!
If your not allowed to nail the walls is there catification that can be put up for that? I ask cause I am disabled, thus can't afford my own place and have to use section 8 to rent from others, they have rules like this where you can't nail things to the walls and stuff.
Can you use furniture like end tables, dressers, filing cabinets & bookcases (w/tops cleared off) to make a "cat hiway"? End tables with a bottom shelf make great "cat caves," just add a pet bed or blanket. Just don't use suction cup shelves/ hammocks on windows. It's safer to put a cat tree, table or small bookcase under/in front of it instead.
