Nice show, try starting at the bottom with a clove hitch and finish with French spiral hitching, this hitch tightenes up as you progress, my cat scratcher is 60" as they are huge cats ❤

Looks high quality. I like your video style 👍 gave a like and subscribe. I hope to see more diy cat things if that’s what you like! I am thinking about installing a cat run for my cat so she can get around while staying off the ground when my boyfriend and his dog comes over

need update. did that hot glue gun hold up? My guess is no. After a week im sure that rope was coming off. id suggest gorilla glue or heavy-duty glue.

I used hot glue and it's more than enough. It's very strong
