Well to be quite honest, what doesn't a teepee for cats have to do with kids? Though kids themselves probably won't fit inside, that doesn't mean it's not a perfect outpost for stuffed animals, action figures and dolls — even Ninjas and Jedis need a place to take a breather.
You can find this sweet little cardboard cat (and super hero) refueling station at DesignBoom for $36. Although that might seem steep when it comes to something the cat might scratch up, we're guessing it would see a great deal of play time when it came to kids.
We like the idea that it can fold back up flat if needs be and stored in a closet for a little while when it's in the way or not being used, because even if it's forgotten about for a bit, it will still be extra awesome when you pull it back out of the closet on a rainy day. See more details and extra cute kitties over at DesignBoom.

I can't stand those overpriced cardboard creations! We've received three boxes in the mail this week (holiday season and all), and have transformed two of them into a fort and a car (which can then later be transformed into a house and a boat, and on, and on...). Plain old boxes are perfect- and free!
I agree with JoRossi. Why pay for something when we always get boxes for free and it's good for the tots to use some imagination!
i would pay for the pattern on how to make your own tee pee with the plain box we already have. that way i could make it a bit bigger too! <3 it
LOL. I saw the title of this post and immediately thought the exact same phrase the post started with! "What DOESN'T a teepee for cats have to do with kids?" I have fond memories of turning my family's carpet-covered cylindrical cat condo into a fort or cave for my dolls and action figures.
I do agree with the previous commenters though. I wish they'd offer the pattern so we can DIY it and reuse some cardboard boxes!
yeah... this is probably offensive.
