Cheap Cat Furniture

You can find affordable beds, trees, condos, and scratching posts. And many of these bargains can be easily found online. This is great news whether you want to buy a piece for your own cat or to give it as a gift.

If you don’t want to spend any money, you can make your own furniture, barter with other cat loving friends, or re-use and/or re-purpose old furniture.

Below you will find several tips and ideas to help you find low-priced cat furniture.

Finding inexpensive cat furniture

Check online auctions. You may find cheap cat furniture on eBay. You can either bid for items or buy them at the suggested price. Check other online auctions as well.

Check Craiglist.org and other similar sites. Many people list their cat furniture pieces at discounted prices. If you’re lucky, you may even find free stuff.

Barter. Many people barter items on Craiglist.org. If you own something that is in good condition, you may barter it for apiece of cat furniture. Just make sure that the item you will barter is of similar value as the piece you want. You may also try this concept with friends and other cat owners.

Make your own. If you are handy and enjoy building things, you may create your very own piece of cat furniture. You may even save some money in the process. The advantage of this option is that you get to choose the design, the materials, and the price. Fortunately, you can find e-books (some of them for free) on how to build cat furniture. Before you start your project, make a list of all the things you’ll need and check their prices. This will help you assess how much money you will spend.

Recycle, re-use, re-purpose. Use pieces you already have or convert old pieces of furniture into new ones. For example, if you have an old chest you no longer need, gut it out and make a cat house or litter box cover out of it.
