Ranked #6 in Best Cat Trees

Hey-brother MPJ006SW Cat Tree Tower

4.2

1 source$45.99as of Oct 11

Cats.com rates the Hey Brother Cat Tree 8.5/10 and names it best for senior cats, because the levels are close together and easy to navigate. Its reviewer's cats favor the hammocks, but the 35.4-inch tree nearly toppled when her 16-pound cat tried the side hammock, so the included wall strap matters.

Strengths

— Small spaces between platforms make it easy to navigate, per Cats.com
— Includes a wall strap for added stability
— Small posts between levels connect into one tall scratching post, per Cats.com

Watch-outs

— Nearly toppled when Cats.com's 16-pound cat tried the side hammock before it was strapped to a wall
