Dear Maurie & Jenny
My hollow arrived today in WA. Boy was it packed well!! It took me over 30
minutes to get the heavy duty cardboard box off. Anyway I absolutely love
it and so do Macey and Dexter my two Siamese. I've managed to get some good
photos of them but I have to get advice on how to get them on computer to
you.
The hollow looks wonderful, is so well made and the colours are just
as I imagined and go great with our home. As you will see when I get photos
to you, the cats have used every part of the hollow. They are very active &
playful and I'm sure it will keep them more occupied. They are always "up
to no good" (lol!) - they get into everything, so it is great they have
their very own hollow to play, "fight on" and rest on.
Once again thank you
very much to you both. It is a great product and I will certainly be
recommending it to my friends and fellow cat lovers.
Kind Regards

Hi Maurie
Thank you so much for the giant hollow you made for me last year in time for christmas.
My Ragdoll kitten took to it straight away. I was a little worried she'd be put off by the size of it but she's adopted it as hers, and loves jumping from leaf to leaf and springing up from a leaf to the inside of the trunk and then up through the top. Her favourite spot is the very top where she often falls asleep.
My other cat a tabby moggie called Tazz, loves to climb up the back of it and sharpens her claws on it while stretching upwards.
My other cat a tabby moggie called Tazz, loves to climb up the back of it and sharpens her claws on it while stretching upwards.
She doesn't get that many opportunities to use it though as Jarrah (the ragdoll) is a bit possessive and likes to chase her away as soon as she sees her using it. Though she has gotten better at holding her ground.
I was very happy with the colours too. The light green blending nicely with the kitchen walls where it sits. Also it's nice and sturdy which is a huge plus as previous posts have been knocked over when the cat got real enthusiastic. My dad whose a huge perfectionist found it impossible to fault the hollow, and it's real nice to have a cat scratching post that's more like a piece of furniture.
Keep up the good work! and thanks again.
Kind Regards, Jodie

Just want to say they tunnel and hollow have been a big success with Vinnie and Beau. (You may have seen what I put on cat-world).
I’m especially thrilled at seeing Vinnie tearing through and playing inside the tunnel- she was a very sick girl a few months ago and she seems so happy now and loves her new toy. Beau plays with her through the holes but has never been a tunnel cat.
For my cats and home the Tall Small is the perfect size.- and looks great.
Regards and Thanks again.

Hi Maurie
I just wanted to give you an update on the gray small tall you made for my birman, Kiarra.
Well, it has been a giant success. Not just with Kiarra, but also with our other cat, Cotton Candy, and our old fella, Bono. Bono has the beginnings of arthritis in his back legs, so having the steps really helps him with getting up and down and getting some much needed exercise.
The other two throw themselves through the holes in the truck, and Kiarra always seems to end up hanging upside down and kicking with the back feet.
The hollow has stood up amazingly well. Any other scratching post would have been torn to shreds by now given the punishment they've given it I've attached a couple of photos of our cats with their hollow.
Enjoy and thank you for all your hard work.
Kind Regards
Natalie

Maurie,
The medium hollow arrived perfect and on time. Mia has investigated and worked out at least that it's a good way to get onto the window sill next to it, and that you can sleep in the bottom.
No doubt there are many more discoveries ahead for her. Here's an early picture. Will no doubt be more, especially when I get my second kitten in about three weeks.
Many Thanks
Geoff. |

WOW WOW WOW!!!!!!!
We are blown away at the quality of your service and also your product.
We are SO grateful for you rushing the job for us and were able to pick up the Hollow and set it up the night before the kitten arrived (last night) :)
My husband (a perfectionist) inspected the Hollow for at least a half hour, bemused by the fact that he couldn’t fault it LOL
One of the few times I have seen him truly 100% happy with a purchase. Thank you!
Thank you also for bearing with me and the multitude of carpet samples. It is exactly how I had envisaged it and looks great in our room :)
Have I said Thank you LOL :)
kind regards
Camille, and kitten owning family.
I have attached 2 pics of our Kitten's first venture into it.

Hi Maurie & Gang
I thought I'd let you know how brilliant your Funky Tree is! Our two tonkinese kittens, Bella and Chandon, absolutely love their tree. I don't know how they manage to hang onto it sometimes with their leaps and bounds. We're moving house next weekend, then we will be able to set up our computers and send you photos.
Thankyou so much for having the tree ready for me on my recent trip to Melbourne I really appreciate the effort you went to, as do Bella and Chandon!
I've got my eye on a springie and tunnel to spoil the gorgeous things some more!!
Cheers

Hi Maurie & Jenny,
Just a quick note to thank you so much for our wonderful cat scratcher. Bella our 4 month old british blue absolutely loves it.
As soon as it arrived she took to it like a duck too water. She brings us so much enjoyment watching her play on it every night and morning when we are home.
She sleeps up the top like queen bea and enjoys watching everybody from up there.
Truly a fantastic well made quality product. Thanks once again .
Love Jodie S.A.

2/12 YEARS AND STILL GOING
STRONG
Hi Maurie and Jenny
Just a bit of an update on how things are going
with The Boys and their Giant Funky Hollow. I have a new addition
to my feline family, Gus which brings the family
up to five. Like the others he just loves the
Hollow and uses it both for rest and play.I have
attached a couple of photos - one is of Harry
showing Gus the best way of using the padded edge
and the other of Gus using it in a different way.
It's been more than 2 1/2 years since I purchased
the Hollow and I am amazed how well it is aging.
It looks exactly the same as it did when I got
it. Bearing in mind that the collective weight
of The Boys is about 30 Kg it is almost unbelievable
and is a testimony to your fantastic workmanship.
Your attention to detail is meticulous and I can't
speak highly enough of it.
Thank you also for making and organizing delivery
of a medium Hollow for my mother in Hobart. Once
again the service has been of the highest standard
possible.

Hi Maurie and Jenny,
I bought a tall small hollow from you in February
and my burmese kitten Yuki absolutely loves it!
She started playing on it from the first day she
arrived. I was *so* impressed with the quality of
the hollow, it's a masterpiece. From all the pictures
and testimonials on your web site, I was expecting
a great product, yet I was still totally blown away
when the hollow arrived.
The tall small hollow is the perfect size for our
townhouse! Its obvious a lot of time and effort
is put into the construction of your hollows, they
are worth every cent. The packaging it was sent
in was excellent, there was no chance on earth the
hollow was going to be damaged in transit.
Thanks again for such a great product, we couldn't
be happier with it!
Samantha & Yuki.

Hi Maurie & Jenny,
I thought you might be interested to see some photos
of Bobby totally relaxed on top of the Medium Hollow.
He was the one who was scared of the Hollow, it
took about a month for him to start using it!
He loves it now and doesn't like it when Teddy
gets there before him!
Hope you are all well.
Regards,

From
the paws of Snuggles and Cuddles.
Hi Maurie and
Jenny!
Rem-ber-us? We're
Snuggles and Cuddles! You made some very nice fur-ni-ture for us.
We really love playing on our hollow
and tunnel together. It's so much fun! Both of us
love to play chasies through the holes of the hollow
and tunnel. The tunnel is really fun to sleep in
too, espe-cial-ly when you want to hide from bratty
brothers who keep trying to inter-rupt your beauty
sleep.
It's also really good when we want
to hide from Mummy when she wants to give us med-cine.
YUCK! please don't tell her thats our favourite
hiding spot because sometimes it takes her a bit
of time to find us. Haha.
The hollow is really good when we
want to sleep on a high spot and play music on the
springies. We used to be able to sleep on the hollow
together but now we're too big. Only one of us can
fit and the other one falls (or gets pushed) off
because there isn't enough space.
But we've figured out a really good
secret! Want to know what it is?
We learned that the best way to kick
your bratty brother off the hollow top is to sit
on the top leaf and swat your anno-ying brother
over and over again until he gets so anno-yed that
he just has to jump off. The tail and the paws are
the best places to swat.
The Hollow and tunnel are also great
bec-au-se there is really nice carpet on it that
feels nice to scratch. When we scratch the carpet
on the hollow and tunnel Mummy gets really happy
and tells us we are "good boys". She never
tells us that when we scratch the carpet on the
floor. When we scratch the carpet on the floor she
glares at us and goes "humph!" I guess
that makes her mad?
So we'd like to say thank you for
making fur-ni-ture for us that makes us and Mummy
happy!
Hope you and your kitties have a Merry
Christ-amas and a Happy New Year.
Lots of hugs and Kisses,
Snuggles and Cuddles. V IC
P.S Mummy says we should say "Merry
Chris-amas" to you from her too.

Hi Maurie & Jenny
The Hollow is a huge hit - I have
some great photos that I'll email to you when I
get a minute. My old black cat is delighted that
he can climb again (he's so arthritic but
he finds it easy to hop from leaf to leaf) and he
is actually playing for the first time in over ten
years - last night he was attacking a springy
and chasing his tail on the top of the hollow. My
other cat just likes the security of looking down
on the world from the Funky Shelf. It really was
worth every penny and has transformed them from
hating suddenly being indoor cats to really seeming
a lot happier.
I think my neighbours may well order
one, too, and I'm saving up for a Log now.
Best regards Louise S.A. |

Hi, I bought a hollow from you nearly a year ago,
my two boys Perry (Abyssinian 4yrs) & Zee (Devon
Rex 7months) absolutely love it, its lasted really
well and i'm 100% happy with it, wish I had room
for another one! heres a pic of the boys attached.

Hi Maurie & Jenny,
My two gorgeous Tonkinese have been with me 2 weeks
now. They're settling in beautifully - and LOVE
their Medium Hollow, as you can see from these pics.
Mind you, they also think my computer keyboard,
my morning cup of coffee and just about everything
else they can reach has been put in my home specifically
for their amusement. :-)
Thank you so much for a wonderful play and relaxing
space for these two. I'm sure having their Funky
Hollow has helped these two adult cats settle in
to a new home even sooner.
Warmly

Hi Maurie
I thought I'd drop you an email and photos to thank
you very much for the medium hollow we got from
you a few weeks ago. We have recently bought a ragdoll
kitten, McLintock, from Bella
Lyn Ragdolls in Ballarat (we
got the hollow first so it would be here when he
arrived). He barely left the hollow for three days
and still loves it now a month later. We even feed
him on it.
With four dogs in the house, I think he sees the
hollow as the only thing that's really his, as they
can't climb on it and he uses it to get away from
them. He loves to crouch on the leaves and leap
on them as they go past. I've included a picture
of McLintock and our dingo Rei, who is now his best
friend.
The hollow's colours match our decor perfectly
and everyone who visits comments on it. We also
have a lot of landscape artwork in the house and
it ties in brilliantly.

McLintock just jumped onto the laptop and wrote
the above. I guess he says thank you too :)

Dear Maurie and Jenny
Just a quick note to say it was really lovely
to have met you both and what a terrific product
you have. The main reason for my wanting the Hollow
(other than to thoroughly spoil an already spoilt
cat) was so that Misty would stop scratching and
clawing at the carpet in the family room. She
has always had other scratching posts and poles
with places to sleep, but has always come back
to the carpet. So far, it has been a week and
she has not put one claw to the carpet as she
seems quite content to reach up and pull at the
leaves of the hollow. She has thoroughly examined
every inch of it inside and out and has taken
to having most of her naps on the top.
Once again, thank you very much for the very
prompt and efficient service. The Hollow is beautifully
and skillfully constructed. We cannot find a join
in the carpet anywhere (although we haven't really
studied it that closely!). We think we know where
they must be, but they are so well hidden. I will
most definitely be ordering products from you
in the future.
Kind regards,
Judy

Dear Maurie & Jenny,
Just want to say thanks for the fantastic medium
hollow I bought the babies for christmas last year.
When I got it through the front door my youngest
cat (1yr old and the original "Scaredy Cat")
was so frightened of it she ran up the stairs and
wouldn't come down for a few days. It took her a
month before she would sit on it. She has now traded
in my lap for the top shelf of the hollow and won't
let anyone else up there!!
I have put the hollow in a corner next to the window
just under the pelmets. This suits the cats just
fine as it gives them easy access to the top of
the pelmets where two of them like to sleep. It
suits me also as it means they no longer walk all
over the entertainment unit to get to them (knocking
over all the ornaments as they go!)
When people visit, the hollow is the first thing
they notice, especially if it is adorned with cats.
Everyone has commented favourably and it's difficult
keeping toddlers from trying to get into it or trying
to sit on it (thankfully we don't get too many toddlers
visiting!)
So on behalf of Jaffa, Lilly and Squidgy (unfortunately
for her, Queenie is not the least bit interested
in the hollow)
thanks again.
Best wishes
Sue

The funky hollow has given my cats hours and hours
of amusement, and in return has amused us watching
them. It's an indoor playground for them and a soft
place to fall asleep. Thank you so much to Maurie
and Jenny for being so helpfull in selecting our
Tree.

Hi Maurie and Jenny,
I have attached a photo of my two babies Ciccio
and Saffy. As you can see they have well and truly
found the best place to sleep, every moment they
get they argue over who will get the best position,
but in the end they settle down together. It's been
a great place for them to sleep, play hide and seek
and perform many tricks. I could not imagine anything
better to keep them amused for hours.
I just wanted to write to you to thank you for the
many hours of pleasure it gives us watching them
on the funky tree. Thanks again.
Regards,
Leah  |

Dear Maurie
The hollow arrived yesterday and its fantastic
the quality of your workshop is great - you don't
see things this well built anymore!!
Now all I need are for my new kittens to arrive
next week. I will certainly send you photos once
they are here.
Many thanks for making it all so easy, and being
able to have it here in time. I really appreciate
this.
Merry Christmas

Hi Maurie & Jenny
Well, what can I say. We've (Jasper) have had our
Medium Hollow for just 2 days and what a wonderful
product you have. Congratulations!!
I am so glad I was bored one day and was channel
surfing, otherwise I would never have known about
Funky Cat Furniture. I saw one of your small hollows
on The Price is Right as a prize and just knew I
had to have one for Jasper.
I've attached another 2 photos of him on his hollow.
He just loves climbing up and down, in and out.
He has a wonderful view from the top leaf, so he
spends some time there.
Once again Maurie & Jenny, thank you very much
for this wonderful product and your great service.
The hollow was WORTH waiting for.
regards
Vera & Jasper ("") ("")

Hi Maurie and Jenny
Max and Pixie love their chocolate
and cream corner hollow (refer to pictures)! Now
that we've had Pixie a few weeks they are really
bonding and loving to play on the funky hollow together.
The colours look wonderful and they match the chocolate
in their coats! They just love it and our family
and friends think it's very groovey!
They were taken on the weekend when
they were having their first "smoochie"
moment!
Thanks again for producing such a
wonderful product for our cats.
Best Wishes from Rachael and Mark.

My name is Megan and I was lucky enough
to purchase a small hollow from you at the last
Ringwood cat show at Bedford Park. I was originally
to get a mini hollow, but when Mum and I saw the
others we fell in love with a beautiful cream and
blue small hollow.
You asked to see some pictures, so I thought I'd
show you my kitten, Selina Kyle, (who was ten weeks
when she was playing here) and how much she loves
her hollow. She thinks she's a big scary jungle
cat with her hollow, and she absolutely loves hiding
in it and jumping out at anyone who walks past!
Thank you again so much for all your help and for
your beautiful products.
Yours sincerely,
Megan and Selina Kyle VIC.  |

Hi there Maurie and Jenny,
I just thought I would write a quick note to thank
you again for the fantastic hollow we bought a few
weeks ago.
Our kitten Hermione absolutely loves it (pictures
attached). It is so functional for her as it gives
her somewhere to play, somewhere to lie in the sun
and somewhere for her to hide away in. It is great
for giving her a retreat away from our little girls
as well. Also, we have had so many comments from
people about how nice the hollow looks in the house.
We pride ourselves on having a nice house with nice
furniture so it was great that we could have a cat
tree/hollow to suit it and not have to resort to
getting one of the dodgy leopard print monstrosities
that you often see in pet shops.
Anyway, thanks again for the great service, it
was so lovely to deal with such friendly people
as well.
Warmest regards,
Stellina VIC.  |
