Sooooo... Catmas Tree v2.0 is a real thing now.
Lots more room to get around than v1.0. At some point my wife will put hook eyes under some of the platforms to tie cat toys and/or cat-safe xmas decorations.
I have NO idea where we're going to put this.

I will never not love how Aprilface will put her paw on me to try to keep me from leaving, even when she's just napping nearby.

Cinna summited Mt. Catwall. She is fully prepared to set off the smoke detector the next time breakfast is late.

New cat structure cobbled together from closet-storage garage sale finds and scraps. The possibly-hazardous ropes in the first pic were replaced with a jute rug. Criss-cross ramps allow access to all levels. They're a bit steep, so added some ladder-steps for grip.

One of Valkyrie's kittens shortly after their eyes opened and they were able to toddle around.

April enjoying one of the new desknest-type cat platforms, because napping approximately 1 linear foot closer to me is worth it.

Sometimes I have to move the pillow that keeps April from peeing on my office chair out of the way, with April still napping on it. She doesn't seem to mind.

Been a while. Time to get caught up on posting, like Aprilface is on napping.

Our kids rescued a neighborhood Flamepoint, unchipped and no apparent owner. Valkyrie turned out to be pregnant and just over a week ago gave birth to three little clones of herself. One of them will be ours, after they're ready!

Continued success with the DIY "desk nest".
Aprilface apparently needed to be able to get approximately one foot closer to me before she'd hang in the office.

Bella approves of the recent cat tree reset in our "theater". Old beige beater condo replaced with a (now deprecated) Solvit Kittyscape platform with DIY carpet top. Also works as a side table, if you're willing to go to battle over snack ownership.

Spend $180 on a Desk Nest for the cats?
Nope. Spend $20 on a single-monitor desk mount, and repurpose the bed from an old cat tree.
Now MAYBE I can get through a day without Cinna creating new keyboard macros out of the last paragraph I was typing.

This is Chessie, an early resident of our Home for Senior's Cats. Vet guessed she was 20+. Didn't talk much, but when she did it was LOUD. The cat version of your ancient aunt, shuffling around in a bathrobe, with a lit cigarette, drinking sherry from a jam jar.

This is Kasper, sadly no longer with us. This handsome boy is arguably responsible for keeping me alive during a painful period while being diagnosed with CRPS. He was the best, and I still miss him.
