A Great Invention for our Feline Friends!

I have several other blogs, mainly promoting local businesses in my home state of Michigan. A writer for one of my blogs, The Genesee County Business Blog, added a company that has a great invention for cats, called the Cat Roost.

Here is what he has to say about his invention:


My inspiration for the Cat Roost came one day while visiting the Adopt-a-Pet center in Fenton Michigan. We ended up adopting two cats that day, Kitten and Angel, now better known as Siegfried and Roy. Yes just like the famous Las Vegas Tiger act duo.


Each day as I watched Siegfried & Roy cuddle up on a chair or a blanket I'd think back to my visit at Adopt-a-Pet and the crates they were kept in. The cats loved sleeping and napping in a hammock like bed made with a piece of cloth attached to the sides of the crateImage Roy Sig Mantle with shower curtain rod hooks.
I wanted to find something like those improvised beds that I could bring home to them. I couldn’t find anything that was quite like what they were used to, so I thought "if I cant find something I’ll make them one”.

Later that week I was in my basement working on my bicycle when I looked over and noticed a folded up chair standing up in a corner. The chair had three legs and when folded out created a canvas top Image Roy Rooststool to sit on. I looked at it for a second and said "it’s what I’ve been looking for, the Cat Roost!” The rest as they say is history, I was on a mission. I could tell you I came up with the “Cat Roost” on my first attempt but that just didn’t happen.

I’d scour the shelves of the local Hardware Store and Lumber Yard looking for anything I could find to make what I envisioned in my head. Sig in RoostI’d put something together, set it on the floor, step back look at it and usually say “what the heck was I thinking!” After many hours and many unsuccessful versions I came up with what you see today. It’s simple, easy to set up, move from place to place and most of all cats love it!

So that’s the story of how the Cat Roost was created. I’m always looking for ways to make life easier and more comfortable for the ones who always give us joy and unconditional love, our Pets!
