28" Rattan Cat Tree with Water Hyacinth Platform
Budget IX: Everyday CollectionWater hyacinth straw again, this time on a compact scale -- a genuinely different resting texture.
"This uses the same water hyacinth material we've seen work well on taller rattan trees, but scaled down to a compact 28" piece -- a good option for a smaller room that still wants that natural, breathable texture."
Feline Behavior Lead
This tree pairs water hyacinth straw with sisal rope on a compact 19" x 19" base, giving a cat a genuinely different resting texture from standard plush in a small footprint.
A dedicated 3.5" x 3.5" x 12" scratching post gives real claw-maintenance surface separate from the platform itself.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does water hyacinth material hold up over time? +
It's a durable natural fiber, though like any natural material it develops character and shows wear differently than synthetic fabric over years.
Is this a good fit for a warm climate? +
Yes -- the natural woven texture breathes more than plush fabric, which some cats prefer in warmer rooms.
Is 44 lbs maximum weight generous for a piece this compact? +
Yes -- that's a strong rating relative to the tree's small 28" size.
How easy is this to move between rooms? +
Very -- at 12 lbs it's one of the lighter, more portable pieces in the catalog.
