The Sophisticated Difference: Artisan Craftsmanship Meets Cosy Comfort

Elevate your living space with the Willow Nook, a piece of feline furniture that seamlessly blends timeless design with natural functionality. Hand-crafted here in the Devon since 2017, this is not just a cat tree—it's a bespoke piece of artisan furniture designed for the discerning cat owner who values sustainability and superior quality.

Unlike mass-produced pet items, our Artisan Cat Tree is built around the natural contours of a sustainably sourced Oak trunk, ensuring a truly unique structure for your cat to explore, climb, and rest. Its balanced design offers both a high, secluded vantage point and a mid-level play area.

 

Please Note: Each Willow Nook is unique. While the functional layout and quality remain consistent, the oak limb used will feature its own organic curves and character, meaning no two trees are identical.

 

Key Features & Design Philosophy

 

  • Integrated Rest & Custom Comfort: Features a luxurious, hand-woven Wicker Basket Bed at the top, offering a deep, secure, and ventilated space for sleeping. These baskets are sumptuously lined with authentic, ultra-soft sheepskin. Choose from three distinct basket styles (Taper Open, Armchair Open, or Cave Bed) to suit your cat's specific lounging preference.

  • Bed Sizing & Style: The standard 16-inch (40.6 cm) bed is perfectly sized for one cat. Depending on the basket size chosen for this piece, the bed may accommodate multiple cats (check 'Detailed Specifications' for availability). Specifically, the 18-inch basket is ideal for two cats to share, or for one large breed cat like a Maine Coon. The 20-inch basket is designed for two or more cats to share comfortably, or for one extra-large breed cat.

    The basket bed can be customised with a choice of three distinct basket styles (Taper Open, Armchair Open, or Cave Bed). Note: The Cave Bed style is only available for the 18-inch and 20-inch basket sizes, not the standard 16-inch.

  • Dual-Level Comfort: The standard Willow Nook configuration (16" basket + platform) is an ideal Two-Cat Design. While the 16" basket provides a high, solitary perch for one cat, the mid-level platform, finished with a layer of authentic, ultra-soft sheepskin (available in Otter Brown or Cream), offers a separate, luxurious resting spot perfect for a second cat.

  • Optimal Scratching: The thick supporting post is tightly wrapped with high-density, natural Sisal rope, giving your cat the necessary resistance for a full, satisfying vertical stretch and claw maintenance. For lasting value, the sisal post easily detaches, allowing you to use our professional re-sisal service or replace the rope yourself.

  • Zero Hassle Setup: Arrives fully assembled and ready for immediate use. No tools, confusing instructions, or frustrating assembly required—simply unbox and place.

  • Handmade Toy Options: Complete your order by selecting one of our exclusive handmade toys—the Fluff Ball or Rodney Rat—both crafted from the same high-quality sheepskin and natural sisal used in the tree.

  • Solid Stability: Built on a weighty polished, wide oak base slab to ensure unparalleled stability. The organic, curved shape of the main trunk provides beautiful visual appeal and robust support.

  • Finished for Life: Treated with a high-quality, protective varnish that shields the wood and enhances the rich grain for lasting beauty.

 

Detailed Specifications

For precise placement in your home, please review the approximate dimensions. Due to the organic nature of the oak limb, expect minor natural variations in the wood's curve and size:

 

Care and Maintenance

  • Wood: Wipe the oak down gently with a damp cloth; avoid harsh chemical cleaners.

  • Wicker/Basket: The sheepskin lining should be regularly shaken out and brushed. For spills, spot clean only using a mild wool-safe detergent.

  • Sheepskin Platform: The authentic sheepskin layer should be regularly shaken out and brushed. For spills, spot clean only using a mild wool-safe detergent.

 

Treat your cat to the perfect blend of high-end design and cosy functionality, and don't forget to include a handmade toy for playtime! Order The Willow Nook today!
