When scratching posts were no longer cutting it for Stefan Hofmann and his girlfriend’s cat, the cat owner took the matter into his own hands — he began building incredible indoor playgrounds for felines.
Hofmann, who is a carpenter from Germany, is the founder of the design firm Goldtatze (German for Gold Paw). The firm’s custom-made kitty jungle gyms are fashioned from natural materials and are meant for cats who both yearn for the outdoors and are accustomed to the high life.
"As every cat is so special, so should their environment. With our Gold Paw range we take this into account. We revive cats' rooms with luxurious yet natural elements that rival the ‘outer’ world,” Hofmann told news agency Rex USA.
Designed to fit the shape and size of a room, Gold Paw’s unique kitty playgrounds include scratching posts made from real tree branches, wall-mounted walkways, hammocks and suspension bridges.
