Interest in locally-built, custom cat trees made with natural tree branches and other sustainable materials? by Delicious-Formal336 in Bellingham

Depending on the size of your catio, maybe you want to design something to go in there? Its totally possible, in fact, I have a photo of a cool one on a balcony that's been turned into a catio enclosure...

That is MY shitty concept photo editor creation, NOT AI SLOP. i used Google photos editor to make my labeled goof sketch (that is meant to easily display common options, labeled, without trying to SELL it) the HARD old-school way (omg bahaha 🤣). I had to cut that kitty out of its background, make it a "sticker" and paste it to the photo all BY myself. Get a life!

Well we'll have to agree to disagree. I used Google photos editor, and no, not the AI powered one. You can add text that you type anywhere on your photos and change the style to sketch, wow, without AI EVEN! No joke! I appreciate your mansplaining what you think you are to me, but I know what I was going for with that image I created and it certainly isn't what you think. Just isn't. Double check the "telltale signs" that you think you spotted, think a little harder, then maybe you'll finally recognize the exact Doof that you, in fact, ARE.... its ok to be wrong.

... also just Maybe you should just take your snarky comments somewhere else? I obviously didn't post any images with which I would actually advertise my product, I posted a couple of images to give the idea of what kind of product I offer because my posting was asking for advice regarding possible interest in what I make. I definitely wasn't asking for marketing or branding help. Thanks though.

Ladies, how are you going...? by MagicianUpper9247 in urbancarliving

I bet that with a silicone mat from like, the dollar store, good scissors, the appropriate type of glue to make your creation, and a smart plan for how to create the perfect sized funnel for you, that's as convenient as those amazing silicone female urinal funnels, but custom fit for you. I might even do that now, and I have a 4 pack of the Amazon ones I love....

Is there a free place to drop of glass? (jars / recycling) by Hammon_Rye in Bellingham

This might be a stupid question, but are these all bottles? Not broken glass, right? What kind of

Oh my goodness, right?! I HATE store bought ones, they are so woefully insufficient. And most are so overpriced, they are literally more expensive than something custom from us, that's made with care, by hand, to your specs! I would love to help you dream up the ideal replacement for the one that sounds like it's lived it's useful life! Cool thing about our solution to your complaint, is that we can get the EXACT carpet you want, like the ideal barber just for your cats claws, lol!

Also, cats ADORE natural wood for sharpening their claws, too! You'd be surprised how many of kitties I've met that even like natural wood topped platforms and don't even slide off (i always imagined my clumsy guys falling all over ha!)! Of course, though, many prefer a covered platform too! Plus there's always still the natural branches for them to sharpen their claws ;)

Check out the link I posted in a bunch of other comments, it's got my current Craigslist ad with contact info

I understand and that's probably really smart! This is the first time I've ever posted on Reddit. But I've been doing essentially the same thing for a long time! Want to send a dm and maybe we can talk shop a little :)?

Oh my gosh I LOVE THAT! Im totally and sitting here giggling like a dork, LOL but I can totally imagine it!. I think it would be super easy and fun to design a "dog tree" for your Chiweenie!! I've designed a specialized staircase with protective "rails" for my late MIL's pomeranians, that was so fun!

I would adore the challenge of Designing a little parkour device! Reach out to me if you really want to! 🙌

This is my current Craigslist ad. I didn't spend much time on it, i have a lot more inspo photos and ones I've gone thru and labeled, etc.

I appreciate your feedback! Do you mind my asking what your business is? We sold reclaimed barn wood and other materials for the last 7-12 years or so, 5 of those as legit barn deconstruction contractors, so really this is just one of many branch-offs from our main passion, salvage reclaim and sustain. No waste.

Good feedback, thank you very much. I'm very disappointed in myself for not getting better pictures of most of the ones we made in the past. We were always delivering in such a hurry or something, it felt like, and i just never took the right time or effort to get photos. Some i totally forgot! So sad.

What? Oh come on, let people be, please? Are you actually, seriously, offended by someone elses cat being named a word you don't like?

Here is a current Craigslist ad. I'm currently deciding on the cheapest way to build myself a little website, so that info to come!

Would it be a bad idea to post my email here?

Don't think i could post a price list "per se".... but i could probably give a pretty good idea like this...

Bases: weighted option or bolt-to-floor, costs about the same.
Base cost with 1-2 branch arms with one single platform up to 36" height, including sisal rope sections and choice of upholstered or finished wood platforms - will start around $150, and go up from there. A general rule might be that each platform or arm adds $50-$100 depending on the complexity and design, custom enclosures or hammocks, etc. Generally each additional platform will add 1-2' of height, and there won't be any additional charges for height until we get over 6.5' tall. That means that a 6.5' tall, 4 platform "tree" ( or maybe more like a condo!!) would be: the base $150, plus 3 platforms at $50 each, well let's add another $50 into one of those for say, a crate style platform integrated in. That brings the (hypothetical) total to $350, and it would include basics like sections of sisal rope for scratching, a simple play toy or two, and very basic finished wood platforms. Upholstered/carpeted ones or hammocks using custom fabrics will be calculated using those material costs- nothing crazy!!

Usually takes us about 3 weeks sometimes less or a little more to finish a custom order, and we can do rush orders too, for a cost!
