Hey,
I'm already on my second post
One of the reasons that I'm choosing a Bengal cat, besides their really desirable athleticity and strong personalities is their beautiful aesthetics. That's really one of the characteristics I like about cats in general - they have an almost self-conscious concern for appearance.
So, this is the problem. I have found a bunch of really well-built cat furniture available in Europe on the web. I have no doubt it's quality product, the problem is, the design leaves something to be desirable. I really want to provide a nice area for my new kitten to enjoy himself, but I want to incorporate this organically with my living space, not have a segmented "this is the cats, this is the persons" type space. Of course, it's really difficult to incorporate the normal carpeted and sisal wrapped furniture with the rest of your stuff
I found a few American based websites that have really attractive furniture of apparent quality (they're expensive too, but no more than a quality carpet and sisal run of the mill type thing). Here are a few of them:

http://catsplay.com/ (on CatsPlay, look at that Lotus Tree, fun!)
Unfortunately, most of these offerings are not available in Europe. But, I noticed there are some United Kingdom-ers on here and I thought maybe they had access to things I haven't found. Any suggestions?
Btw, related but not on topic, is double and triple wall corrugated cardboard really a long lasting material? I can see a Bengal shredding something like that in a matter of months (and certainly having a lot of fun doing so, but, I want to buy pieces that last not disposable stuff).
Thanks!
