MiaCara Torre Luxury Cat Tower

The whole structure is a climbing tower with a sheltered cubby at the base for the cat that likes to hide and an elevated vantage at the top as a bed for the cat that likes to be noticed.

The making of itThe story behind the piece, and why we chose it
Most homes with a cat end up with three separate pieces of cat furniture: a cat tree they ignore, a scratching post they half-use, and a bed they lie next to but never in. The Torre consolidates the three into one sculpted column. It was designed by Dutch furniture designer Regina Mol for MiaCara, whose pet furniture is finished to interior-design standards.
The Torre is built to be displayed. It is a tall sculpted column finished in wood, with a deep curve running down its centre wrapped in design felt in your choice of beige or black. It reads as a piece of furniture first and a cat tower second. Most cat trees are something you tolerate in a room. The Torre is something you arrange the room around.
The cubby at the base is for the cat who hides. The platform at the top is for the cat who watches. The felt curve running between them is for the cat who scratches, and the same panel is what they use to climb to the platform above. In a multi-cat household, the cubby and the platform are usually claimed within the first week, and the cats settle into a quiet rotation.
The structure is bent plywood, with a weighted base anchoring the column against the force of a cat launching from the top platform. The wool-content felt compresses slowly under repeated claw work, so the scratching surface keeps its shape over years rather than months. The whole piece is built to stay in the room for the lifetime of the cat.
Why we chose this
The Torre stood out from MiaCara's range because most consolidated cat-furniture pieces feel like a compromise across all three jobs, and the Torre is the rare structure where each role is engineered properly rather than bundled in.

CareCleaning and everyday care
The design felt panels can be brushed gently with a dry, soft-bristle brush to remove loose hair and debris. Spot clean the wood base and frame with a lightly dampened cloth and allow to dry naturally away from direct heat. Avoid saturating the felt or using solvent-based cleaning products, as these may affect the colour and texture of the woven surface. If purchased separately, faux fur cushion care instructions are included with those items.

How do I stop my cat scratching the sofa?
Cats scratch to maintain their claws, stretch their muscles, and mark territory with scent glands in their paws. The most effective way to redirect scratching away from furniture is to offer a dedicated surface that meets those needs: tall enough for a full stretch, stable under active use, and finished in a texture the cat will keep returning to. The Torre's scratching surface is a large curved plywood panel wrapped entirely in tightly woven design felt, mounted on a weighted base that stays grounded during enthusiastic use. The small Torre stands 70cm tall and the large 110cm, both giving room for a full upward stretch. Placing the tower near the furniture a cat currently targets, and near a resting spot since cats often scratch after waking, makes it more likely to be adopted quickly.
What should I look for in a designer cat scratching tower?
Four things separate a well-made scratching tower from a cheap one: height, stability, material, and construction. Height matters because a cat cannot get a full back stretch on a low post; the Torre stands 70cm (S) or 110cm (M). Stability matters because a tower that wobbles under use is quickly abandoned, which is why the Torre sits on a weighted base engineered to stay grounded. Material matters because the scratching surface needs to invite repeat use, which is why the Torre uses a shaped plywood panel wrapped in tightly woven design felt rather than a thin synthetic cover. Construction matters because cheap posts often use cores that compress within months. The Torre also carries an elevated platform on top for resting with a view of the room. It is designed by Dutch designer Regina Mol for MiaCara, the German design house, and finished to the same standard as MiaCara's wider furniture range.
