Fabric
Choose from either a heavy duty cotton canvas or an open weave jute fabric. The cotton offers a more refined look while the open weave of the jute allows cats to sink their claws in and get a good grip on the fabric for easier climbing.
Filling The Cat's Trapeze
Inner pillows for stuffing the trapeze are sold separately. The trapeze can be stuffed with your own throw pillows, or you can use old towels, recycled clothes or crumpled newspapers placed inside a pillowcase.
Hanging The Cat's Trapeze
There are several different options for hanging the Cat's Trapeze. To create the most movement, hang the trapeze from a ceiling-mounted hook positioned away from the walls. To create less movement, position the ceiling-mounted hook near a wall or in a corner.
Wall-mounted hooks or over-the-door hooks, similar to those shown above, can also be used to hang the Cat's Trapeze against a wall or door. Over-the-door hooks for use with the 1- pillow and 2-pillow trapeze only. All ceiling- or wall-mounted hardware must be properly secured into wooden studs/beams or mounted with heavy duty wall anchors.
The Cat's Trapeze comes with a hammock that attaches under the bottom pillow, creating an extra napping spot. The trapeze also includes a small piece of sisal rope that is used to bind the trapeze straps together and attach to the mounting hardware. A longer piece of sisal rope can also be used to hang the trapeze. This will allow you to adjust the height of the trapeze.
The Cat's Trapeze is designed to hold up to 55 lbs. when it is properly mounted. Do not use the Cat's Trapeze with senior cats or with cats that have agility or mobility issues.
Care Instructions
COTTON - The cotton Cat's Trapeze and hammock can be machine washed at 104° F (40° C) after removing the inner pillows or stuffing. We recommend air drying and warm iron as needed. The cotton trapeze cover will shrink slightly after washing. Do not machine dry, this will cause the trapeze cover to shrink considerably.
