Tree-hugging moderncats rejoice! This month we’ve got a great giveaway just for you! The wonderful folks over at Mountain Cat Trees are offering one of their beautiful, eco-friendly, handcrafted cat trees for the monthly giveaway. I first wrote about Mountain Cat Trees last year, and showed you all of their wonderful scratchers and cat trees made of natural materials that kitties love. They use real trees with the bark removed and natural sisal. Everything is handmade in Massachusetts using trees that are locally harvested from downed trees or timber cutting and forest management. Now that’s really green!

Mountain Cat Trees is offering a 36-inch two-level cat tree (retail value $155) to one lucky winner. To enter the monthly giveaway, make sure you’re signed-up to receive Moderncat updates via email. If you’re already getting the updates but you’d like an EXTRA chance to win this month, please leave a comment on this post. Complete details on the monthly giveaway here. The winner will be chosen in a random drawing on August 31. Due to shipping costs, this giveaway includes free shipping to addresses in the US only.

Very cool!! I could use this in my house
August 12th, 2010 at 12:31 pm
My kitties love their cat tree! I think it is possibly the BEST thing you can give them. I’m sure that they would love one of these trees too. What an added bonus that Mountain Cat Trees make theirs eco-friendly

I love this tree! Wish everything in my house could be eco-friendly, but it’s hard to convince my cats to use the toilet and leave kitty litter behind! lol

the gang needs a new climbing perch to watch the birdies outside from!
August 14th, 2010 at 7:08 am
These cat trees are wonderful!! I can attest that fact since I have the 54 inch tall ones. Since our two cats just love it, we are considering getting them a second one for another room. My home is very eco-conscious. My furniture and flooring are composed of natural materials.
August 14th, 2010 at 10:07 am

August 15th, 2010 at 8:47 am

August 15th, 2010 at 9:38 am

August 15th, 2010 at 12:30 pm
Nice!
August 15th, 2010 at 2:20 pm
My mom just adopted one of our “abandoned strays” and he is past due for a scratcher as she has informed me he is scratching up her furniture! We could use this!
August 15th, 2010 at 5:26 pm
Oooh! I want it! My two little guys could seriously use something to perch and scratch on!
August 15th, 2010 at 8:19 pm
way to go green I love it!
August 15th, 2010 at 8:26 pm
love how easy to keep clean these look! just what I need for my “sensitive tummy” kits!
August 15th, 2010 at 9:14 pm
This would be perfect for us, as we’re having a hard time creating something like this DIY but desperately need some interesting furniture for our indoor kitty.
August 15th, 2010 at 9:32 pm
I love that this doesn’t have carpet! I think my cats would really enjoy this!
August 15th, 2010 at 9:59 pm
Tiny Panther will loooove this!
August 16th, 2010 at 1:05 am
My 5 cats would love this & hopefully it would save my newly reupholstered suite from being ruined
August 16th, 2010 at 3:38 am
Looks great, might stop my cats from scrathing the banisters instead of the scratch post!
August 16th, 2010 at 4:14 am
Ideal for Pickles who loves to scrat, especially the carpets
August 16th, 2010 at 9:30 am
My kitties would love this…cat fight time, who gets to sleep on it first?
August 16th, 2010 at 11:18 am
I love the natural, eco friendly materials. Gorgeous design, too!
August 16th, 2010 at 12:04 pm
My five cats will squabble as to who gets to the top of the tree.
August 16th, 2010 at 11:39 pm
My cat would love this, she is always looking for a new toy / adventure to start in the house!
It would give me some “quiet time” while she has fun!
And eco friendly can’t get any better.
August 17th, 2010 at 9:20 am
That looks great – my cats love scratching on the sisal it’s covered with too.
August 17th, 2010 at 10:04 am
My cat has ruined my new sofa so hopefully this would take his mind off scratching the rest of the furniture
August 17th, 2010 at 12:47 pm
I’ve tried building my own, but they are never as pretty as these are. So many trees are going to waste for no good reason, might as well give them some lasting use after they are discarded. Wish more companies used found materials. Great idea!

Howie, my 8-year old best buddy, has used a 2×4 piece of plywood to manicure his nails since he was small. He loves it, however, the wood has broken down and he recently got a splinter in his paw so I had to throw it out.
I would love to win this cat tree because it is made from an actual tree and will provide the wood surface he prefers but not hurt his paws.
I also made him a sisal wrapped piece of wood which he uses but it is very frayed now and I just don’t want to make another one because it was difficult to do because I have arthritis in my hands.
He is an indoor cat but loves to look out the window all day watching the birdies and bunnies and the height of this cat tree is perfect for placing near the window so he can look outside.
I try to be earth-friendly and recycle all my trash, etc., and I am grateful there are companies that produce products that won’t hurt my cat or the environment.
Thank you Modern Cat for providing this wonderful contest. Good luck to everyone!
August 18th, 2010 at 9:39 am
So many entries! But I’ll add mine because my rambunctious one-year-old cat would LOVE this tree. Thanks!
August 18th, 2010 at 10:49 am
My cat would love this!
August 18th, 2010 at 12:06 pm
Sure would love to win this! My cats Jonah and Calvin just lost their beloved friend Lincoln, and I would love to give them something new to play with.
August 19th, 2010 at 10:20 am
I have several cats and they each love to have their own spot to supervise the house from.
I can just picture one of the girls-Hobbee- sitting on one next to the bedroom window watching out the back at all the wildlife. she would be in heaven.
August 19th, 2010 at 11:03 am
This tree would be a great extra for my cats. They love having something extra to climb on every day. Thanks and good luck to everyone.
August 19th, 2010 at 11:17 am
Love the natural, untouched wood and sisal. This would brighten up my cats’ play area.
