You can attach The trapeze with a hook into the ceiling, linked with a rope. Depending on the length of the rope, you can vary the height of the Trapeze. The rope is also functional for the cat as a “toy” .
You can also attach the trapeze with a hook from for example Gardman, into the wall or to the lower part of a (open) staircase.
The space you need for placing the Trapeze is not more than the space you need for placing a plant.
You can also hang a 1 or 2 pillow Cat's trapeze at the door with a door hook.
If your cat is somewhat quieter and therefore wants less movement in the Trapeze,
you can attach the trapeze into a corner of two walls.
Letting your cat getting used to the Trapeze by placing the lower pillow on the ground
let rest (by vary with the length of the rope). For the somewhat quieter cat that’s more pleasant.
This isn’t necessary for young kittens and active races. They learn by doing.
Active races and kittens enter the Trapeze for 99.9% out of curiosity and a big wish to play on it.
Some of the quiet cats however doesn’t use the Trapeze on their own initiative,
just like they do with a another spot or toy you buy for your cat.
The better pet shops sell a quiff substance (catnip) that attracts cats to the object where it is placed on
(for example the pillows of the Trapeze).
The Cotton/linen cover can be washed at 40 degrees Celsius ( is often not necessary, you can use the vacuum cleaner as well), in the washing machine by removing the inner pillows.
The inner pillows from Ikea can also be washed in the machine (60 degrees Celsius) or by hand.
Take the wet cover out of the washing machine and hang it to dry. If there are many crinkles you have to iron it. Our advise is to not use the spin drier,
The inner pillows are smaller than the cotton/linen cover, that's because the cover will shrink a little after washing it. Cotton/linen can be washed as often as you want.
The trapeze has been made of natural material. These materials are specially selected for cats and are therefore very strong.
This material can be painted with textile painting in the desired color.
At this moment we only sell unbleached cotton, this is a regular material. Check our shop to look for new trendy materials and colors which will be made in limited editions. Strong cotton/linen (light beige / ecru-colored)
You have to shake up the inner pillows before you put them into the cover and after putting them in, you also have to shake up the whole cover for a better and prettier result.
