One thing to keep in mind with a cat tower is they will wear out from the cats sharpening their claws. So if "looking nice" is a priority you either need to get one where the scratch pads can be replaced or you're buying a new tower every couple years. That's the one advantage to the cheap ones on chewy, they use standardized bolts and column sizes so you can kinda lego build them as needed. Or swap in replacements.

if the scratchers are rope wound round pillars, you can buy sisal or coconut rope for pretty cheap to replace worn-out ones - just need to nail it in top and bottom if you wind it tightly. pads yeah those would be harder to DIY replace

Douche4Sale posted:I knew I had seen something like a brush that attached to walls or arches before. It turns out the search term you are looking for is "self grooming" or "self groomer". Oh, that's perfect! I found a thing I'm sure he'll enjoy. Christmas is saved! Thanks!

I have a probably overpriced cat tree from Mau but the cats love it and I like looking at it, so I'd say it's worth it. It's also sturdy enough for our two, who are both fairly large cats (14 & 16lbs).

I have one of those artificial sunlight lamps for the winter sadnesses. I can only keep it on for a short time though, because as soon as my cat sees it, he sticks his face right up against it and squints. It hurts his eyes but he can't stop himself. Got to wonder what's going on in his head.

Warmth maybe? Feel his ears or toe beans and if they're cool to the touch kitty is just looking for some toast. Maybe consider a pet-specific heating bed, if he's the type that likes cat beds.
