Look! Modern Cat House

Leo is a cat loving designer who recently applied his creativity and love for modern design to create a minimal structure to house his kitty, Olive...
 
 

"I made this house for my cat, Olive. She enters through a door in the bottom side and then ascends a ramp, which boosts her to the upper level. The front wall is plexi-glass, the floor is 2.5 inch thick old sheepskin rug, and my wife made some small paintings that hang on the walls. There is also a big cardboard scratching porch. Cats love to scratch and relax on cardboard. The top is removable and the glass slides out for maintenance"
--Leo Kempf

This house reminds us of a kitty version of a prefab like this one or this one. Great job Leo!

What a lucky kitty! I agree, you definitely need to post the art, I really really want to see it. Is it little paintings of mice?

This would be so much cooler than a kitty condo.
