Construction
The method of construction is one of the main ways that makes Panther Perches different to the cat trees available in regular Pet Store.
​
Panther Perches are hand built for strength and each part is hand sanded, stained and varnished for aesthetics.
Although all our products are built with care and attention the following is a short gallery of what is involved in the manufacturing process of the Premium Cat Tree with Kitty Ramp.
