"From Devon’s Forest to Feline Haven: Crafting Cat Trees from Oak’s Natural Beauty"

Nestled in the heart of Devon’s rolling countryside, I find inspiration in the majestic oak trees that dot the landscape. Each season, Devon’s forests offer us natural gifts in the form of fallen oak limbs, perfect for transforming into the luxury cat trees and scratchers your cats will love. These beautifully weathered limbs, full of character and history, are the starting point for our handcrafted creations, designed to add both function and elegance to your home.

The Journey from Forest to Cat Furniture

Our process begins with a simple, respectful gathering of naturally fallen oak branches. These limbs, brought down by the force of a winter storm or the natural cycle of the tree, are carefully chosen for their strength and natural beauty. By sourcing wood this way, we’re not only ensuring our creations are sustainable, but we’re also breathing new life into these ancient trees.

Once gathered, the wood is seasoned—a meticulous process that can take up to two years. This aging brings out the golden honey tones of the oak and enhances its rich, natural grain. Seasoning the wood also ensures it has the durability and stability required to support even the most enthusiastic of climbers!


Crafting Cat Trees with Nature's Story

Each cat tree and scratcher we create has its own unique charm, shaped by the natural textures, crevices, and grains of the oak. Some branches even feature beautiful knotted areas or natural cracks filled with resin, adding an elegant touch and enhancing the wood’s rustic appeal. These are more than just natural functional items for your feline companions—they’re works of art that carry the story of the Devonshire countryside into your home, and of course cats love real trees.

We are a husband and wife artisan duo transforming these oak limbs into cat furniture that is built to last. Whether you’re choosing a sturdy scratcher for your Maine Coon or an elegant tree for your Siamese, every piece is crafted with attention to detail and care for the materials.




Sustainable, Long-Lasting Design

With our cat trees and scratchers, you’re investing in pieces that are built to last a lifetime. Finished with natural oils, they’re designed to withstand even the most energetic scratching. And, with our re-sisal service, you can refresh the scratching posts as needed without ever having to replace the entire piece.

Each item is bespoke and unique, honoring the natural curves and texture of the wood. So, when you bring one of our creations into your home, you’re adding a piece of Devon’s natural beauty that will be cherished by you and your pets for years to come.


Bringing Devon’s Beauty Home
