Product overview

Natural wood furniture, built to pounce on

Every Pounce tree begins as a single length of fruitwood, selected by hand and shaped into branches and perches. It stands on a solid oak base turned on the lathe, and is wrapped in natural sisal where claws belong.

No two trunks are alike, so no two trees are either. The grain, knots, and lines on yours are its own.

Dimensions

The Perch: double perch, 5 ft tall

The Sapling: single perch, 3.6 ft tall

Perches: 18 in across

Base: 24 in diameter, solid oak

Weight rating: holds cats up to 25 lbs per perch

Shipping box: 35.4 × 19.7 × 23.6 in, about 100 lbs

Materials & care

Trunk: a single length of solid natural fruitwood, hand-selected and shaped by hand. No carpet, no particleboard, no composite.

Base: solid oak, turned on a lathe and weighted so the tree stands steady.

Scratching: more than 40 in of natural sisal rope wrapped around the trunk.

Perches: baskets fitted with removable faux fur cushions in Cloud.

Care: wipe the wood with a soft, damp cloth and vacuum the baskets with a brush attachment. Machine-wash the cushions cold with no detergent, then lay flat to dry. Sisal and cushions are built to wear and can be replaced in minutes.

Shipping & returns

Handcrafted to order; ships in 6–8 weeks. Free shipping on every order. 30-day risk-free trial. Engraved trees are final sale.

The warranty

If the trunk, base, perches, or hardware ever fail in normal use, we will repair or replace them for the life of the tree.

Covered: splitting that affects stability, a failed base, a broken perch or basket, and worn or stripped hardware.

Not covered: sisal and cushions, which are made to wear and replace in minutes; the natural character of solid wood, such as knots and fine surface lines; and damage from other pets, moving, or modification.

To claim: write to hyggepounce@gmail.com with a photograph and your order number.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it really worth the price? +

Most cat trees are carpet over particleboard — they wobble, shed, and get replaced every year or two. This is solid handcrafted wood built to last for years, with a lifetime warranty and wear parts you refresh instead of replacing the whole tree. You buy it once.

Will my cat actually use it? +

Cats are wired to climb, perch, and scratch — this gives them a natural place to do all three, with a full sisal trunk they'll claw instead of your couch. If they don't take to it, your trial has you covered.

How much weight can it hold? +

It's engineered to stay rock-steady for cats up to 25 lbs — no wobble, no tipping. Sturdy enough for big cats and confident enough for nervous jumpers.

What happens when the sisal or cushions wear out? +

You replace just that part, not the whole tree. Ropes and cushions swap out in minutes, so one tree stays like new for years.

What if it's not right for us? +

Try it risk-free — live with it, let your cat claim it, and send it back free if it's not a fit. It's also backed by a lifetime warranty either way.

Is it hard to put together? +

Not at all. It's designed to assemble quickly with just a few steps, so it's ready before your cat's curiosity runs out.

Can more than one cat use it? +

Yes. The perches and levels give multiple cats their own space to climb and rest, and the whole-wood build stays steady even with more than one cat in motion.

Designed for Your Home. Built for Their Instincts.

Cats are born to climb and perch — this handcrafted wood tree gives them the space to do it. Sturdy for cats of every size, and crafted to look like furniture, not a plastic eyesore.

Handcrafted Wood. Never Composite.

Most "wood" cat trees are just particleboard dressed up with a wood-look print. Ours is solid, handcrafted natural wood — the kind of build that lasts for years, not months.

Built to Last. Made to Renew.

When the ropes or cushions wear down, you replace just the part — not the whole tree. One handcrafted piece that stays like new for years. It's the last cat tree you'll ever need to buy.
