Hello,
I'm new to the cat parenting scene. I have a preexisting cat tree (58") in my living room (it's their first one). My 2 cats love their cat tree and always sleep on it. They also stay half the time downstairs. I have a lot of beds and random boxes for them to lounge in, but it is accumulating spider webs and hair dust balls. SO to clean up the area, I purchased a new, larger/taller cat tree (67") as a new addition. The ceiling in the living room is slightly higher, so I moved the preexisting tree downstairs and kept the new one upstairs. The fur babies were not happy with that at all. They peed on the couch several times and now they only stay downstairs. I feel like they are upset with me or dislike the change/new tree. I even tried to entertain them on it, catnip the tree, put treats on there, their fur chunks and their blanket for scent. They don't seem to budge. It's been a week now, I am contemplating on swapping it back.
Any advice on what you think I should do??
