Wall-mounted cat walkway system installed securely around your room. Custom routes with shelves, perches, and bridges - giving your cat vertical space to climb, explore, and perch.
### Turn Your Walls Into a Cat Adventure Park
Got a bored indoor cat? **Cat walkways are the answer**. Wall-mounted shelves and perches create climbing routes around your room, giving cats the vertical territory they crave - and you get entertained watching them zoom around at ceiling height.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** Cats feel safer when they can get up high. A good walkway system reduces stress, especially in multi-cat households where they can escape each other.

### Why Professional Installation Matters
Cat shelves need to be **rock solid**. There's nothing worse than a shelf pulling out of the wall mid-leap. Your cat won't trust it again, and you've got repair work on your hands.

Everything gets tested for wobble. ### Step 3: Final Check Before your cat tries it, I'll physically test each shelf to make sure it's secure. You'll be confident it's safe for your furry friend.

Good to Know
> 🎨 **Got kittens?** Wait until they're about 4 months old before installing high walkways. They grow fast and you want the gaps to work for their adult size. **Multiple cats?** Make sure there are several routes down from high spots. Cats need to avoid each other sometimes, so dead-ends cause stress. **Older house with lath and plaster walls?** No problem. I deal with all sorts of wall types in Exeter's period properties. The fixings just need adapting - solid walls are actually better than modern plasterboard. **Not sure if your cat will use it?** Start with a small system (3-4 shelves) near a window. If they love it, we can always expand later.
Frequently Asked Questions about Cat walkway system in Crediton
What exactly is a cat walkway system?
It's a series of wall-mounted shelves, perches, and bridges that create climbing routes around your room - basically a cat highway on your walls. Cats love vertical space, and this gives them somewhere to explore, exercise, and perch up high where they feel safe.
Will the shelves be strong enough for my cat?
Absolutely. I mount everything into solid walls or studs, not just plasterboard. Each shelf is designed to hold well over a typical cat's weight - even if you've got a chunky moggy. If you have any concerns about your specific walls, mention it when booking.
Can you work with my existing furniture layout?
Yes - that's the whole point of a custom design. I'll work around your room layout to create routes that make sense for your space. The best systems connect to existing furniture like wardrobes or bookshelves so cats have multiple routes up and down.
Do I need to buy the cat shelves myself?
Either way works. Some people have already ordered specific shelves they like the look of, which is fine. If not, I can advise on good options and pick them up - or we can use simple floating shelves which work brilliantly and cost less than 'cat furniture'.
How long does installation take?
A basic system with 4-6 shelves usually takes 3-4 hours. More complex setups with bridges, perches, and multiple levels take longer. I'll give you a better time estimate once I know what you're planning.
