I have two cat trees that I don't use anymore. Does anyone have any ideas about how to repurpose them?
Give them to your local animal rescue group as they are always looking for items to entertain cats until they find their furever homes ☺
Great idea Linda! I never thought of that.
Bring them to the SPCA of you region:)
With a bit of imagination, make a merry go round.
Maybe you could remove the carpeting, and cut 4 small holes on the top to fit small pots, then stain or paint & make it into an indoor or outdoor planter. I don't mean to be a Debbie Downer, but I'm not sure an animal shelter would take it because it will have your cats scent on it. No harm in calling first to find out. Again, I'm not positive but I'd hate for you to have to lug them around from place to place and then bring them back home. Good luck, if you decide to repurpose them!
I agree, add a carpet remnant to the post and donate it to a rescue or animal control in your area
Please donate to a needy person or donate to a cat rescue organization . There should be postings available in your area for ideas.
Freestyle! Someone will want these for their cats.
All I can see is Horseshoes and a kids game. Cut off top and buy a set of Plastic horseshoes for kids and Voila!! I"m talkin' 5 yr. or older......good outdoor game at a picnic or birthday. Just tryin' to help....
That's a awesome idea To take it to animal shelter. When I get rid of old towels & sheets, I take'm down to the Humane Society. And if I have any dog toys or dog clothes that aren't being played with anymore, I take them as well. You could put some carpet cleaner (the little spray kind) on it before you give to aspca/animal shelter. Then your cats scents wouldn't be there... I also like the idea of putting some hooks on the underside of the top piece. You could put your grilling tools on it.
I can see it as a small table by taking off the carpeting, painting or staining, putting a thick round glass on top or not and using by a chair,sofa or even by a desk.
Plant stand!
My idea seems to match others, donate them to a local cat rescue organisation.
Thats great and so sorry for your loss😻

Use as a plant stand.
Hi Lisa: You can donate them to the Humane Society or, better yet, to a rescue. Just type "Cat rescues in my area" in your search engine and you should comeup with a bunch.
Give them to a cat lover or sell them. Use for plants once you remove the fabric on the top?
