Catification + Giveaway!

Is your home Catified? Being Catified means you've made a few changes to your living space that takes your feline family members into consideration.



Like a cat tree by a window for good bird watching.


Or a supercool kitty superhighway, like the one in our spare bedroom, seen in these photos above and below.



And now, Cat Daddy Jackson Galaxy teams up with stylish Hauspanther maven, Kate Benjamin to bring you a book full of ideas on how you can bring cat-centric yet stylish design elements into your own home.



According to Jackson, "Catification is about creating feline-friendly environments that cater to a cat’s natural instincts to climb, perch, rest, play, and own their space."


There's plenty to be found in this book, including case studies that explain the difference catification can make in a cat's quality of life.
 The book is filled with colorful photo examples. . .

and pro tips from the Hauspanther maven!


Catification's publication date is October 14, but you can preorder it from Amazon, Barnes & Noble or Indiebound today.

In addition, for every copy pre-ordered, $1 will be donated to organizations dedicated to helping homeless cats!

Giveaway Time!
 

Thanks to Jackson, Kate and their publisher, you can win a copy of Catification for yourself!
(Giveaway open to U.S. residents only)

Not only do you win this limited distribution proof, you'll also get a Catification lunch bag to go along with it.

  9. Oh yes, we have made many catifications, lots of them because cat bro Bert is destructive with Mom's stuff. As I dog, I feel we don't need anymore. Heavens, the cats even take over our dog stuff!

  10. We need to get Daddy a copy of this book. You won't believe HIS version of catification. He's put cat mats (the ones with plastic spikes) all over the tv cabinet to keep us off it! And on the recliners too. Mommy did get us a new cat tree for the back so we could look out to the back alley.

  14. Oh, I definitely want to be entered. I have three cats and have been working on making our house more cat-friendly (especially since I also have five Treeing Walker Coonhounds, and while they get along great with the cats, the cats DO like to get out of their way when they play rough).

  19. I don’t think the peeps are talented enough to put those shelves up. We have a set sitting in the box. Maybe the book will help.
