Turning an Unused Closet into the Perfect Cat Lounge
Everything I used for this project can be found here:
Hey there! So, thereās been this unused closet in my office, literally just sitting next to my desk doing nothing. And, if you know me, you know my cat, Kikko, pretty much runs this place, so I had the idea of turning it into her very own lounging and play area! š¾
First things first, I cleared out the closet. And let me tell you, the empty space was beggingĀ for a pop of color! I went with this super cute Rifle Paper Co. wallpaperājust a strip across the back wall to give it that perfect, cozy vibe. It really brought the space to life, adding a fun pattern and bright energy.
Once the walls were set, it was time to get to work. I added a cat climbing wallĀ on the left side with three different climbing levels and a hanging ropeābecause what cat doesnāt love a good challenge, right? š¹ This setup lets her jump, climb, and play all she wants, plus it keeps her entertained while Iām working.
Now, for the centerpiece: In the middle of the closet, I installed a wall-mounted cat bed. But this isnāt just any bedāit's also a bridge that connects both sides of the closet, so she can climb across it like the little explorer she is. And let me tell you, sheās been loving it! I also installed 2 little climbing steps so she can cross the lower level as well.
Over on the right side, I got creative with an old, half-deconstructed cat tree. I used the base and secured another platform in the corner to help her easily get to the top. Thereās another wall-mounted bed up there too, but honestly, she hasnāt been using that one muchāmaybe itās a bit too high for her taste, haha!
On the floor, I placed a cat scratcherĀ onto an elevated feeding stand to keep her claws busy and a jute bean bagĀ where she can curl up and nap after her adventures. Itās basically her little oasis, and it warms my heart to see her so comfy in her new space.
Iām not totally done yetāI feel like I could still add a few more touchesābut what do you guys think so far? Any suggestions?
