About Neko Goten Kattaturn

Neko Goten er kattaturn hannaður til að líkjast hágæða húsgögnum. Byggingin er gerð úr eik og sedrusvið frá Fukui-héraði í Japan og er handunnin af húsgagnasmiðum. Neko Goten er 2200 mm á breidd, 600 mm á dýpt og 1800 mm á hæð. Hönnunin sameinar stiga, klóruborð, gagnsæja hálfhvel, rúllu, kúlulaga skýli, matarsvæði með geymslu og svefnsvæði. Þétta leiksvæðið hentar leiguhúsnæði, kattakaffihúsum og heilsugæslustöðvum þar sem ekki er hægt að endurgera fyrir ketti.
