Catification is an important concept for cat lovers that has become popular in recent years. It’s all about optimizing your living space to best suit both your needs and your cat’s needs. Read on for how/why you should catify.

 

How/why should I catify?

There are many ways to catify a space, but catification usually revolves around creating an environment that caters to your cat’s instincts to leap, pounce, climb, hunt, and explore. The emphasis here is on vertical ascension; creating a progression of household objects like furniture and shelves that can be traversed up and down, floor to ceiling. Having your living space emulate the type of environment that your cat’s ancestors might have explored outdoors has a whole host of benefits for your cat, including increased confidence, decreased behavioral issues, more enjoyable playtime, and fewer cat-on-cat conflicts.
