New from the U.K. comes a unique approach to indoor climbing — the Hicat climbing system. Designed with a cat’s natural climbing instincts in mind, this system of products includes vertical climbing elements that extend from floor to ceiling.
The clean contemporary forms are available in a variety of configurations and textures. The larger vertical element can include access holes and internal shelves, kind of like a tree hole for napping or surveying the living room.
Hicat is not yet available, but it can be pre-ordered now and is expected to ship in the U.K. sometime around August 2008. The manufacturer is currently seeking U.S. distribution.

Fire Pole for puss ~ Nice look to it and space saving. Does any one have an idea about the mechanics at the floor and ceiling?

Afternoon.
Hicat is my product so thanks for your comment. The unit basically locates in to a single ceiling fixing & comes with end options for hard floors & carpet. Once the unit is in position it can’t move, rotate or slip, but can be easily relocated in minutes if required.
Hope this helps.

I love that photo at the top of the page. Too cool! We have a 6 foot tall home-made scratching post for our cat, and she loves it. This one allows even greater climbing height and looks elegant also. Great product!

Nice!!! I want that… How can I purchase it? Will it be available in EBAY soon? Can it ship to Asian countries?

Wow, that is sooooo cool. My kitty would love it, and it would work in an apartment since it only takes up vertical space…

I’m interested in the pole. Please let me know when it’s available and the cost. Thanks

This is awesome!
Mark from hicat – saw your post above. Can you tell us the price and when it will be available in the U.S. (or how much to ship to the U.S.)?

Oh please, please….make this available in the U.S. My kitty would love this! I’ve built him lofts throughout my apartment, which he gets to from his many carpeted cat trees. This would be very space saving and I know he would love this much better. PLEASE! Make available to United States while he’s still young and can enjoy it.

Are these available in the US? I want two of them – the pole and the spiral staircase – both going all the way to the ceiling.
Please contact me with a way to purchase these. They are a solution for our cats.
