Catipilla Luxury Modern Cat Furniture

Create a cat-friendly home with the help of Catipilla, by building a fun and safe home for your cats to enjoy roaming, climbing and exploring. It can be a huge benefit to their well-being too.

The company Catipilla was born due to the deteriorating health of a 15 year old cat called Smudge. Her owners built her a DIY ramp when she could no longer jump up and access her home. This ramp helped her to continue to come in and out of home as she liked. They then realised that all their cats loved the frame and spent a lot of time relaxing on the higher viewpoints.

Origami Endangered Animals Review

Would you like to learn the art of origami in endangered animals and help to raise awareness for wildlife conservation? This Origami Endangered Animals kit will donate a portion of the proceeds to benefit wildlife conservation!

This well-written kit is designed by master origami artists Michael LaFosse and Richard Alexander to educate us about our planet’s endangered species and entertain in equal measure. I love how they explain the background to these endangered animals and make it simple to understand for children and adults alike. The only thing that I didn’t like is that there is no indication of the difficulty. It would be nice if they labelled it so I can work my way up from beginner to expert.
