For the price of 15 British pounds, or roughly $30 USD, you could have the toughest looking cat in your neighborhood.

These fancy do-it-yourself kits are delivered unassembled, much like [IKEA](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/infinity-diy-cat-tree) furniture, and are therefore relatively cheap to ship.

With this invention, pet owners can now pick up a new hobby craft, while treating their beloved pets.

As pictured here, these Cat Playhouse productions, designed by Suck UK, are available in tank, fire engine, and airplane options.
