This is an old photo. This was the very first cat tree we bought for Sencha before we realized he was a bit bigger than the average cat. We ended up having to return the tree because it was too small for him. He briefly used the tree but he could never seem to be able to find a comfortable spot on it.

Fun fact we were originally planning on adopting a kitten and had gotten a bunch of kitten stuff before we had even adopted a cat but we ended up going with Sencha who was 3.5 years old at the time of adoption. My SO was the one who chose him. He said he picked him because he noticed Sencha kept staring at me when we were walking around the adoption center.

This was the cat tree we ended up with. We still have the tree to this date and he still uses it sometimes.

What tree is that? We have a rather chonky boi that we think is a Bengal mix, and there are days we think he'll topple over the regular sized trees we have (we have 3 other "normal" sized kittehs). I know they make large cat trees specifically for this, but any recs are welcome!

Also, of course he's an awesome kitteh.

Unfortunately I can't find the exact tree anymore. I do recall we searched for "cat tree for heavy cats" specifically and then we did some research to find a good option.

Ah, not a worry. I'm sure I'll find "the one" soon enough. Thanks!

I was forced to search for "the one" when I got my mainecoon. His 20 pound butt leaps from this sucker and it stays upright. I have two of these. https://www.chewy.com/midwest-feline-nuvo-grand-forte-41-in/dp/108188

Very pretty grey cat.
