I’m always looking for a fresh approach to cat furniture design, and this scratching/climbing system from German company Profeline is truly inspirational. The line integrates some very innovative features and uses natural materials for a simple, clean look.
Profeline makes free standing cat trees/scratchers, plus they have a line of wall mounted trees that I think are just brilliant. The sisal wrapped columns come in different lengths that can be combined in any configuration with hammocks, shelves, and hideaways to create a custom tree for your cat. That also means that you can easily replace single segments of the post as they become worn, instead of throwing the whole thing out. That is game changing!
They also make several wall-mounted scratching products that can be configured in endless ways.
In addition to the wall-mounted and free-standing trees, there are some larger cat trees that are anchored between the floor and ceiling with a tension pole. Other designs rest on the floor, but are anchored to the wall at the top. Both very smart solutions for creating a stable cat tree that takes advantage of the full floor-to-ceiling space, without requiring a gigantic base.
Profeline also offers a full range of cat walks, all featuring the same simple, clean design, plus several models of wall-mounted perches with beautifully upholstered pads on top.
Sadly, for those of us here in the US, Profeline is only shipping to the EU at the moment, but I’ll be sure to let you know if that changes. In the meantime, visit the Profeline website to do some window shopping.
I ordered their catsack and cat tunnel when I was in Germany in the fall. I wish I could bring some cat tower parts back they are awesome!

I’d really love to be able to order these. Hopefully they’ll begin shipping internationally soon. Sisal is an essential here, and it does wear out, so being able to exchange the posts is such a nice idea.
these are so great! I love the wall mounted towers! I have high ceilings and hate how much floor space tall towers take up. This solves my issue. Keeping an eye out for the US shipping! thanks!
These are GORGEOUS and just exactly what every cat family needs! I have memories of our former floor-to-ceiling cat tree lying across the living room floor after it was disengaged from the ceiling by our active cats. Thankfully, no one was ever hurt, and the house and contents were not damaged. In our present home, we’d need a very tall tree for our 9′ ceiling…this looks like just the ticket. *And oh, those gorgeous models!*
This would be fantastic for my kitties playroom. Not only would it be a beautiful addition to the room, it would also be a great exercise influence for them! Beautiful! Thank you!
I was getting really excited until I got to the “only in EU” part. I love the wall mounted ones and the fact that you can connect 2 together. Also the fact that you can buy separate replacement parts. The design is so nice and clean but cat-friendly. I love them! And that big grey cat model’s expression cracks me up. He looks like a character.
I’ve been looking for attractive cat trees and these are so beautiful. I love the wall mounted ones. Please let us know if they start shipping to the US!
Sleek, simple, well made…of course it’s German engineering. Please do let us know when they ship in US, these are great!
