Quick answer

Installing the Large, Cream Lying Area Step With Play Rope Triangular is straightforward when you attach it directly to a compatible sisal pole. The key is to ensure the bracket is tight and the step is level so your cat feels secure.

Why choose this large lying area step?

The Large, Cream Lying Area Step With Play Rope Triangular is specifically designed for large and heavy cats, offering a 22x22x22 inch space to relax. Its integrated play rope adds a natural sisal texture for scratching and play, making it a dual-purpose addition to your cat tree.

Before you start, confirm your cat tree has a sisal pole with a diameter of 5, 6, or 8 inches. This step is not compatible with other pole sizes, so measure first to avoid a wasted effort.

Step-by-step installation guide

  1. 1. Choose the right pole: Measure the diameter of your cat tree's sisal pole. This step fits poles that are 5, 6, or 8 inches thick. Using it on a different size will make the bracket unstable. Check your pole size before buying.
  2. 2. Position the bracket: Slide the metal bracket that comes with the step around the chosen pole. Hold the step at the height you want, making sure it is level. A common mistake is attaching it too high, which can make it hard for older or less agile cats to reach. Consider your cat's jumping ability when choosing the height.
  3. 3. Tighten all screws: Use the provided Allen key or screwdriver to tighten the bracket screws firmly against the pole. The step should not wobble when you push on it. Over-tightening can strip the screws, so stop when the bracket is snug and secure. Check for wobble after tightening; re-tighten if needed.
  4. 4. Test the play rope: Gently tug the natural sisal play rope to ensure it is securely attached to the step. While it is durable, avoid using it as a primary support for the step. The rope is for play and scratching, not structural stability. The rope is an accessory; do not hang the step by it.
