PAWZ Road Cat Tree Modern Cat Tower 4 Levels

If there’s something every cat needs, it’s a cat tree. If your cat is regular-sized, picking out a suitable cat tree doesn’t pose much of a problem, but what if they’re of a heftier build?

Choosing cat trees for large breed or “chunky” cats can be a little trickier, as they need something a little roomier and sturdier to accommodate them. For that reason, we’ve rounded up some of the best cat trees for bigger and/or weightier cats in Canada to give stressed large cat parents a helping hand.

  • The 10 Best Cat Trees for Large Cats in Canada

    1. PAWZ Road 59 Inch All-in-One Cat Tree

    PAWZ Road 59 Inch All-in-One Cat Tree

    Dimensions: 59 inches/150 cm (height), 60.00 x 55.00 cm base
    Color: Black, white
    Material: Engineered wood

    If you’re looking to combine roominess, comfort, and convenience, this PAWZ Road all-in-one cat tree is our best overall cat tree pick for large cats. This cat tree stood out to us because of one extra special feature—the base has been made into a cupboard with a hop-in hole that can be used as your cat’s toilet spot, storage space, or an extra cat bedroom depending on your preferences.

    Above the cabinet are a condo, roomy hammock, and top perch for a cat’s favorite pastime—looking down upon and judging humans. To sum up, we love how multifunctional this cat tree is, and many users have left positive reviews on its sturdiness and how well it accommodates larger cats. The only factor putting a dampener on things is the hefty price tag, but if you’re happy to splash out, why not?

    Pros
    • Built-in cabinet for litter or cat bed
    • Sturdy
    • Easy to assemble
    • Multiple spots for sleeping and perching
    Cons
    • Expensive

    2. Amazon Basics Large Dual Platform Cat Tree Condo – Best Value

    Amazon Basics Large Dual Platform Cat Condo Tree Tower

    Dimensions: 19 x 50 x 19 inches/48.3 x 48.3 x 127 cm
    Color: Beige
    Material: Jute

    Cat trees—especially high-quality ones—can put a strain on the purse strings. Though this Amazon Basics dual platform cat tree isn’t exactly what we’d call cheap, it’s made of quality material, has largely positive reviews, and is more reasonably priced than many of the other cat trees on this list, which is why we’ve chosen it as our best cat tree for the money pick.

    As well as a condo, this cat tree has two perch posts, a ladder, swinging toys and springy toys, and built-in scratch posts. A replacement ball comes in your package and you can purchase more if you need. Users are a tad divided as to whether or not this product is suitable for larger cats—while some find it too small, others mention that their larger cats fit comfortably without issue.

    Pros
    • Reasonably priced
    • Four toys
    • Neutral color
    • Built to last
    Cons
    • May wobble when used by heavy cats

    3. BEWISHOME Large Cat Tree Tower – Premium Choice

    BEWISHOME Large Cat Tree Tower

    Dimensions: 36.6 x 30.7 (D) x 62.2 inches/93 x 78 x 158cm
    Color: Smoky gray
    Material: Plush fabric, sisal, CARB P2 grade environmental board

    This absolute whopper of a cat tree is our premium choice on this occasion. With two condos (one standard size, the other large), three perches, a hammock, three swinging jingly toys, and a multitude of scratching posts, the BEWISHOME is certainly worth checking out if you’ve got multiple large cats or even just one you want to spoil. The product description mentions its suitability for large cats, and several user reviews back this up.

    Users also comment on how easy this huge tree tower was to assemble and how sturdy it is, even under the weight of portly cats. On the other hand, some users were unhappy with the fabric, finding that it ripped easily. Also, as one of the largest and most feature-rich of our choices, it’s a little pricey.

    Pros
    • Lots of positive reviews
    • Feature-rich
    • Built for multiple cats
    • Easy to put together
    Cons
    • Fabric may be easily ripped
    • Pricey

    4. FEANDREA Cat Tree – Best for Large Kittens

    FEANDREA Cat Tree

    Dimensions: 19.7 x 13.8 x 45.3 inches/50 x 35 x 115 cm
    Color: Light gray
    Material: Particleboard, plush, sisal

    For larger kittens, this cat tree by FEANDRA is worth looking into. Though it may not be the best choice for large adult cats as per several user reviews, it could be a good option for large breed kittens.

    It has two soft top perches—a bonus for multiple-cat households—a condo, swinging balls (and two spares), and a scratching ramp and scratching posts built-in. The package contains an accessory kit and anti-tip kit for extra security.

    It can hold a maximum of three cats, with each one weighing up to 15.4 pounds according to the product description, but many users recommend it more for kittens than fully grown adult large cats. Some users also mentioned that the fabric ripped off a bit too easily.

    Pros
    • Reasonably priced
    • Comes with an anti-tip and accessory kit
    • A good size for large breed kittens
    • Can accommodate up to three cats
    Cons
    • May not be big enough for large adult cats
    • Material may be flimsy

    5. Pesofer Multi-Level Cat Tree

    Pesofer Multi-Level Cat Tree

    Dimensions: 55.9 inches/142 cm (height), 21.2 x 17.3 inches/54 x 44 cm (base), 17.3 x 21.2 inches/44 x 54 cm (top perch)
    Color: Light gray
    Material: Engineered wood

    This cat tree by Pesofer has five levels for snoozing, playing, or resting and plenty of sisal scratching posts for claw workouts and stretching. We particularly like how roomy this cat tree is—the platforms appear nice and wide for large cats to jump on and the spacious top perch means that cans of all sizes can enjoy that “top of the world” feeling.

    Other features include a dangling rope, soft hammock, and scratchable ladder. Those with large cats commented on the sturdiness of the structure and that their cats appreciated the extra room, especially at the top. On the downside, some found it hard to assemble and weren’t happy with the screws and materials provided, but reviews point to a positive experience for the most part.

    Pros
    • Spacious enough for larger cats
    • Five levels
    • Large top perch
    • Well-sized platforms
    Cons
    • May be tricky to assemble

    6. BEWISHOME Cat Tree Condo

    BEWISHOME Cat Tree Condo

    Dimensions: 21.65 x 15.75 x 37.79 inches/55 x 40 x 96cm
    Color: Light gray
    Material: Plush fabric, sisal, CARB P2 grade environmental board

    Another BEWISHOME product, this cat tree is smaller and less fancy, and more basic than the BEWISHOME cat tree we picked for our premium choice but, according to the product description and user reviews, is still a great choice for large cats. For that reason, you might want to give this tree the once over if you’re looking to save a few pennies as it’s pretty reasonably priced.

    It has a scratchable ladder leading to two condos, a jingle toy, and a soft, spacious top perch. User reviews point to an easy assembly, sturdy structure, and suitability for larger/longer breeds like Maine Coons. It’s also a good choice for apartments, as it’s not overwhelmingly big.

    On the other hand, some weren’t pleased with the quality of the soft covering and would prefer something more durable. Furthermore, some users felt that the condos would be too much of a squeeze for especially chunky/large cats.

    Pros
    • Apartment friendly
    • Easy to assemble
    • Spacious condos and top perch
    • Reasonably priced
    Cons
    • Material may be easily ripped
    • Condos may be too small for some large cats

    7. Hey-Brother Extra Large Multi-Level Cat Tree

    Hey-Brother Extra Large Multi-Level Cat Tree

    Dimensions: 21.7 x 15.7 x 58.3 inches/55 x 40 x 148 cm
    Color: Light gray
    Material: Particleboard, linenette, sisal rope

    This cat tree by Hey Brother has five tiers, a hammock, toy rope, toy balls, two condos, and two soft plush top perches with raised edges for extra security while your cat naps. It comes with anti-topple fittings for those with plans to secure it to the wall. According to users, the Hey-Brother tree is a good choice for large cats, though some found it a bit wobbly.

    Users also mention easy assembly, value for money, and comfort as some of this cat tree’s best points. It may not be the best option if you’re on a space-saving mission or want something more discreet, though, as it’s pretty huge.

    Pros
    • Five tiers
    • Comfortable for cats
    • Extra-large size
    • Anti-topple fittings included
    Cons
    • Not the best option for space-saving

    8. FEANDREA Small Cat Tower With Widened Perch

    FEANDREA Small Cat Tower With Widened Perch

    Dimensions: 18.9 x 18.9 x 37.8 inches/ 48 x 48 x 96 cm
    Color: Light gray
    Material: Particleboard, plush, sisal

    If you’re looking for something compact that will fit nicely into an apartment space or pretty much anywhere, this FEANDREA cat tower is small but designed for large and chubby felines, as per the product description. It has a cat condo with two holes—a bonus for long cats that want to spread out a bit more—a soft nest-style hammock and wide top perch.

    The multipurpose scratchable ramp and the short distance between tiers also make it a good choice for senior cats who need a bit of a leg up. User reviews are mostly positive, and some mentioned that it was sturdy enough to accommodate their weighty cats.

    On the other hand, some feel that the condo may be a bit cramped, and some didn’t consider it a good choice for larger cats in general. That said, others wrote that their large cats have had a great time with this tree.

    Pros
    • Apartment friendly
    • Soft and comfortable
    • Wide top perch
    • Reasonably priced
    Cons
    • The condo may be a bit cramped

    9. PAWZ Road Cat Tree 4 Levels

    PAWZ Road Cat Tree 4 Levels

    Dimensions: 17.3 x 18.9 x 35 inches/44 x 48 x 89 cm
    Color: Beige
    Material: Wood, plush, sisal

    Though not the tallest cat tree in itself, this PAWZ Road cat tree combines simplicity and roominess to make a comfortable napping spot for both small and large cats. It has two cozy condos and a large top perch covered in removable, washable fabric for when a freshening up is required.

    This cat tree also has built-in scratching posts, a ladder, and a swinging ball for play. Bonus—you get a replacement swinging ball in the package in case the original detaches. According to user reviews, the perch in particular is big enough for cats on the larger side and easy for less nimble cats to climb up on.

    On the other hand, some users consider the condos a little too small for big cats. That said, if your cat enjoys squeezing itself into small spots, this could work.

    Pros
    • Large top perch
    • Washable top cover
    • Sturdy
    • Easy to climb for ungraceful cats
    Cons
    • Condos may be too small for some large cats

    10. Amazon Basics Wooden Cat Tree

    Amazon Basics Wooden Cat Tree

    Dimensions: 24 x 15 x 29 inches /61 x 38.1 x 73.7 cm
    Color: Wood
    Material: Wood

    Our final pick for the best cat trees for large cats in Canada is this Amazon Basics wooden cat tree that doubles up as a scratching post. It’s a very simple, no-frills design and would suit cats that just want somewhere comfortable to snooze and perch but not too high up. It’s a great choice for apartments and those looking to save space.

    It has a double-holed condo attached to the base for cats that like to stretch out, a long top perch, and sisal pillars that double up as scratch posts. User reviews indicate that it works well for cats on the larger side and that the design fits in well with other furniture and decor. Others found it annoying to put together, though, and it may be a tad basic for some.

    Pros
    • Solid and sturdy
    • Made with wood
    • Fits well into a variety of homes
    • Great for saving space
    Cons
    • Design may be too basic for some
    • Possible assembly issues

    Buyer’s Guide — Buying the Best Cat Trees for Large Cats

    When it comes to picking a cat tree for your large feline, the most important thing to consider is how well it will work for your large cat, no matter what the manufacturer or reviews say.

    With large cats, there’s no one size fits all policy—some may be overweight and need something extra sturdy, some may not be overweight at all but have a large body (think Maine Coons and Ragdolls), and others may just be super long and need extra room to spread out.

    Cats also have different preferences. While a small condo on a cat tree may be too cramped for some, others love nothing more than squeezing into tight spots. Some may use the hammock but completely ignore the top perch or vice versa. Some cats may only use the cat tree for snoozing and others will want to launch themselves at and off it for fun.

    For these reasons, we recommend taking into account your cat’s playing and sleeping habits before making your choice. Measuring your cat against the measurements given by the manufacturer is also a great idea, as this way you can make sure your cat is going to fit into their favorite spots on the tree.
