Many cats live indoors, but they love to watch the world (birdies, squirrels, critters); so I made a window perch to satisfy their unending curiosity!
It measures 23" x 13" (24.5" wide with the suction cups) and is held on by four giant suction cups. I can customize for you, just convo me... I make these perches as I sell them, so I can tweak the size if necessary. Each one is made with love! I hope the fabric choices complement your decor. If you have a particular fabric or fabric design in mind, please let me know. I have gotten some great fabrics with your feedback. My taste may not be the same as yours and I want you to want this great perch in your home!
The security of the suction cups is my number one question, I completely understand!
It is my concern as well. I would not sell these perches if I thought kitties would be getting hurt or would not enjoy the perch.
The suction cups are made in the US and are rated to hold 12 pounds each. They will not come off the window unless there is something amiss, if it does not have a good seal. Typically if this happens, one suction cup will fall but the others will hold the perch up enough so your kitty doesn't fall. The enemy of the suction cup is dust and oils. The suction cups are meant to be placed in a sunny window so they stay soft and flexible. They should be washed periodically in hot soapy water and re-seated on clean glass and they will be as good as new. I've had the same perches up for years, one on the inside of a fixed window of a slider, and one on the outside. My boys are about 14 pounds each and sometimes they like to snuggle together on the perch, grooming and wrestling, like cats do.
While the perch CAN be taken apart, it is not an easy task. You can wash the whole perch with a hose in the shower or outside and let air dry. You can use a brush and gentle soap if necessary.
This perch is portable and requires no tools, drilling, or frustration to set up.
Thanks for looking!
