I mentioned the cats to a colleague today and she pointed me to a couple of sites:

Armarakat - They have a bunch of cat trees, free shipping in the US, and some good sale deals.

Modern Cat Blog – Their “About” page says it all…

Why does it seem like everything for cats has to be purple? Many of the pet product development companies have defined the stereotypical cat owner as someone who can’t get enough purple, lace, frills, and faux fur. If you prefer a more modern aesthetic, you’ve probably had difficulty trying to find items for your home that accommodate both your cat and your personal style.

This blog is a resource for cat owners with a modern style. I seek out the newest products for living with cats in a modern home. I try to identify not only products that fit a modern aesthetic, but also items that are truly innovative and that make living with cats a more enjoyable experience. Moderncat combines product reviews with other useful information for cat owners in a clear and concise format.

I’m really glad for the last one. Most of the cat furniture that I’ve seen in the stores is just ugly. Their climbing and perching tagged posts has some neat furniture and some examples of DIY work that people have done.
