What cat furniture does a cat need?

An indoor cat needs at least one good scratching spot, a raised lounging spot with a view and a quiet place to retreat to. On top of that, it needs ways to climb, such as a cat tree or steps on the wall. How much of this you need depends on your cat and your home.

Which is better: a cat tree or wall-mounted cat furniture?

A cat tree is quick to set up and doesn’t need any drill holes. Wall-mounted cat furniture saves floor space and can be freely combined and expanded. You’ll find more on our cat wall page.

What cat furniture works in a small apartment?

In a small apartment, it pays to choose furniture that takes up hardly any floor space: wall loungers for the corner, a window perch, steps on the wall or a wall-mounted cat tree. That way, your cat gets height and a view without cluttering the floor.

What cat furniture is best for large cats?

Large breeds like the Maine Coon or the Norwegian Forest Cat mainly need sturdy furniture and lounging surfaces where they can stretch out. That’s something we pay special attention to at LucyBalu: the powder-coated metal wall elements are screwed firmly to the wall and stay stable, even when a large cat pushes off hard.

How often should you replace a cat tree?

Only once it wobbles or the scratching surfaces are completely shredded. With LucyBalu, you don’t have to replace the whole piece of furniture: scratching elements, pads and posts are available individually as replacement parts. Your cat keeps its familiar spot.

Is there cat furniture for senior cats?

Older cats don’t jump as high or as far. So plan your steps with smaller gaps and mount lounging spots a little lower. Stairs like STEPS with three steps help your cat get up without having to make long jumps.

Where is the best place to put cat furniture?

Wherever your cat likes to be anyway: by the window, near your own favorite spot or wherever it can survey the room. Scratching spots belong near sleeping areas and entrances, because cats like to scratch right after waking up and to mark their territory.

Modern cat furniture by LucyBalu

When people think of cat furniture, many still picture plush cat trees. It doesn’t have to be that way. LucyBalu started in 2019 as a project for the Munich animal shelter. For the small intake rooms there, our co-founder Sebastian developed cat furniture that is sturdy and easy to clean. With a modular cat wall, the cats had enough room to climb, jump and rest despite the limited space. The STEPS cat stairs, the STRAIGHT wall lounger, the WAVE cat step and the SWING cat hammock all date back to that time. Ever since, we’ve known what it takes for cats to live well, even in a small space.

Designer cat furniture, as individual as your home

Cat furniture doesn’t need to shout. It should blend calmly into your interior and, above all, do its job: making your cat’s life comfortable. The basic needs are similar for every cat – climbing, scratching, watching and, above all, plenty of sleep. Your home, on the other hand, is entirely your own. That’s why we design our cat furniture to fit into almost any modern home – on the wall, in a corner or freestanding in the room.

Cat furniture with beautiful design and high quality

Our range is small but well thought out. Quality over quantity. We develop every product ourselves – designed in Munich – and have it made by carefully selected quality manufacturers. Cats don’t like change and prefer to keep their favorite spots for a lifetime. That’s why you can reorder many wear parts individually, such as pads, scratching elements or posts. The furniture stays and looks fresh again.

Wall-mounted cat furniture

Cats love being up high. From there, they can keep an eye on the room and find some peace when things get busy below. Wall-mounted cat furniture makes use of exactly that space: steps, lounging platforms, hammocks and scratching elements hang on the wall and keep the floor clear. At LucyBalu, you combine them into a cat wall that you can expand at any time later on. To start, a single piece is enough, such as our SWING wall-mounted cat hammock.

The wall elements are made of powder-coated metal and hold up to 15 kg (33 lb); for the STEPS cat stairs, we recommend up to 10 kg (22 lb). Leave about one stretched-out cat length between the elements. In the wall planner, you can see in advance what your wall will look like.

Cat furniture for small apartments

A small space doesn’t have to mean a small world for your cat. A wall lounger for the corner, a window perch or a wall-mounted cat tree takes up hardly any floor space and still gives your cat height, a view and a place to scratch. That way, your cat gets its own territory without your living room turning into a cat playground.

Cat tree or cat wall?

A cat tree stands on its own anywhere in the room, sets up quickly and brings scratching, climbing and lounging together in one spot. A cat wall needs wall anchors, but in return it saves floor space and can be fitted exactly to your wall. Many cat owners combine the two: a cat tree as the go-to hangout and a few wall elements as the route up.

Modern cat furniture that fits your home

Our cat furniture has a simple design and comes in calm colors. It’s meant to blend into your home rather than take over the room. Because cats don’t like giving up their favorite spots, you can reorder wear parts such as pads, scratching elements or posts individually. The furniture stays, and only the worn part gets replaced.
