Perfect for scratching - Let the catfight the tank rather than letting them tear up your furniture or destroy other cardboard boxes. Unique Design - Your cat will love planning world domination from inside this World War 2 inspired tank. From Jake's Farm Yard comes the amazing, awesome Cardboard Cat Tank. A great enrichment toy for cats and other small animals, the turret is fully movable and allows cats to hide and play to their heart's content. You can see the amount of fun our models, Luna and Poppy are having inside the tank.
Durable build - Crafted from British-made 7mm cardboard with reinforced braces on key points to avoid collapsing and allow for rough play. Eco-Friendly Material - The cat tank is made from cardboard, it will hold up for a while but can easily biodegrade or be recycled when the tank has finished its duty. The cardboard structure also requires the use of plastic screws (included in the kit). These screws potentially pose a cat choking hazard. Once buried in the cardboard the screws seem to pose little to no risk of falling out. But while you’re assembling it, make sure to keep your little kitty away so it doesn’t decide to chew on something it shouldn’t. Assembly Garry told us that his cat is a 2-year-old female named Mittens. "She is mostly calm and collected, apart from when we all go to bed, then she runs about the house like a maniac," he told Bored Panda. "She also takes a toy to the top of the stairs around 1 AM every night and howls which is both annoying and cute."

Cats are natural predators ¹ who love to hide, evaluate their opponents, and pounce on them. Your home offers a safe environment, although your feline friend will have fun pretending your feet are dangerous wild predators. Hiding in a box allows them to stalk you and ensure the element of surprise when they pounce on you. Must I Raise the Sides When Making My DIY Cardboard Box Cat Bed? Made from 7mm cardboard, there is plenty of strength to the cat tank which should hold up to even the roughest of play from your feline friends.
Awesome !! So well designed, easy and fun to build, very sturdy, and looks amazing! Has withstood vigorous play from four active cats, they all love it !!” From the very beginning, my cat, Chalupa, couldn't stay from this kitty war machine. Before I pulled the parts out of the boxes, Chalupa investigated. Once it was together he immediately went inside to see what this new space was. Bare Cardboard Finish - Let your children or childish adults colour in the sides to give it a camouflage finish, or just add some doodles.
The quality of this cat product is outstanding. Our only complaint is that some of the pieces came damaged. It didn’t impact the quality of the overall assembled tank but it was worrying to see some of the pieces in bad condition. An enclosed space or one that partially hides your cat’s body will make it feel safe and secure, especially when napping. Raised sides can encourage your feline to use its bed because a “predator” cannot sneak up on them from behind or the sides. Why Does My Cat Keep Tearing Up Its Cardboard Box Bed? In total, putting it together requires 65 steps and some of the steps have multiple instructions. Be careful with some of the mirrored image pieces as they come in pairs and you can easily swap them putting the cardboard piece on the wrong side. I made this mistake a couple of times.
Overall, we’re big fans of the cardboard cat tank and Cacao Pets in general. Their creative and well thought out designs truly inspire the imagination. Built not only as functional cat homes but also as beautiful works of art you won’t mind seeing in your living room. Probably the worst part of the experience was putting it together. I’ve had my fair share of assembling cat furniture and IKEA furniture but making this cat tank took nearly two hours from start to finish. No step posed any real challenge but there were many steps. At least 75 screws were necessary to secure the cardboard pieces together. I recommend using your hand to get the screw started and then using a screwdriver to finish embedding the plastic screw into the cardboard. Anna revealed that after her success with building the tank, she's now turning her attention towards a new project: crafting a cat-Dalek. "The Dalek is taking a lot longer, I’ve spent about three hours so far and only managed the angled base section. I estimate it will take me another 6 to 8 hours including painting to finish." The next day after our initial play session, I found my cat investigating the tank once again. I even caught him taking a cat nap inside. It provided him a safe and enclosed space like his very own kitty cave.She and her husband adopted Topsy and Turvy from a foster rescue group in October 2016. "We think they’re about five years old now, and their birthday is sometime in July. They’re litter mates, brother and sister. They are definitely spoiled, both by ourselves and my mother. They get their own Christmas presents every year. Before the coronavirus, Topsy would sit on our front door mat every afternoon waiting for me to come home from work. That meant it was dinner time! He’s also the one to wake me up in the morning if I hit the snooze button too many times on the alarm. Breakfast cannot be delayed," Anna went into detail about how wholesome life with the brother-sister cat duo is like.
