About Neko Goten Wieża dla kota

Neko Goten to wieża dla kota zaprojektowana tak, aby przypominała ekskluzywne meble. Konstrukcja wykonana jest z drewna dębowego i cedrowego pochodzącego z prefektury Fukui w Japonii, a wykończona ręcznie przez rzemieślników meblarskich. Neko Goten ma 2200 mm szerokości, 600 mm głębokości i 1800 mm wysokości. Projekt łączy w sobie schody, deskę do drapania, przezroczystą półkulę, wałek, kulistą kryjówkę, strefę karmienia ze schowkiem oraz miejsce do spania. Kompaktowa strefa zabawy sprawdzi się w mieszkaniach na wynajem, kawiarniach dla kotów oraz klinikach, gdzie przeprowadzenie remontu z myślą o kotach nie jest możliwe.
