Quick answer

Installing the Slide 22x8 on your Cat Condo or Cat Mansion is straightforward with the right tools and a few checks to ensure a snug fit.

Why add a slide to your cat tree?

A slide introduces a new play element that encourages climbing and sliding, which can help keep your cat active and entertained. The Slide 22x8 is designed specifically as a spare component for Cat Condo and Cat Mansion models, so it integrates without major modifications.

Installation steps

  1. Check compatibility: Confirm your cat tree model is either Cat Condo or Cat Mansion from Cat Tree King. The Slide 22x8 is a spare part for these models only. Using it on a different model may require drilling extra holes, which is not recommended.
  2. Gather tools: You will need a Phillips-head screwdriver and possibly a small Allen key if your tree uses hex bolts. No power tools are required. Have the original assembly manual handy—it shows the screw sizes used on your tree.
  3. Remove the existing component: Unscrew the piece you are replacing (e.g., a platform or ramp). Keep all screws and washers in a safe place. Do not force the screws—if they are stuck, apply gentle pressure and turn counterclockwise.
  4. Align the slide: Position the Slide 22x8 so that its mounting holes line up with the existing holes on your cat tree. The slide should slope downward to allow your cat to glide. Double-check the orientation: the slide surface should face upward and the lip should point outward.
  5. Secure the slide: Insert the screws through the slide into the tree frame and tighten them evenly. Do not overtighten—stop when the screw head is flush with the surface. If the slide wobbles, add a washer or check that the screws are the correct length.
  6. Test stability: Gently push the slide from different angles to ensure it is firmly attached. Then place a treat on the slide to encourage your cat to try it. If your cat hesitates, guide them with a toy or treat on the slide surface.
