Main structure: The main structure of a solid wood cat house should adopt a stable solid wood frame to ensure the stability and durability of the overall structure.

Detailed design: The corners of the cat house should be designed to be rounded without sharp corners to prevent cats from getting injured during activities. At the same time, anti-pinch designs should be set at openings such as doors and windows to ensure the safety of cats.
2. Functional zoning and comfort
Sleeping area: The cat house should have a comfortable sleeping area, which can be a semi-enclosed cat bed, providing sufficient privacy and security. Soft mats or plush materials should be laid in the sleeping area to increase the comfort of cats.
Playing area: The cat house should be equipped with climbing frames, scratching boards and other playing facilities to meet the climbing and playing habits of cats. At the same time, a soft carpet can be laid on the ground to prevent the cat from getting hurt during activities.
Eating area: The cat house should have an independent eating area to place the cat's food bowl and water bowl. The eating area should be kept clean and convenient for the cat to eat and drink at any time.
3. Ventilation and lighting
Ventilation design: The cat house should have a good ventilation system to keep the indoor air flowing and avoid moisture and odor. Ventilation holes can be opened on the side or top of the cat house, or the cat house can be made of materials with good air permeability.
Lighting design: The cat house should have windows or transparent materials to allow sufficient sunlight to shine into the cat house to meet the cat's need for sunlight. At the same time, windows can also serve as windows for cats to observe the outside world and increase their fun.
4. Easy to clean and maintain
Material selection: The internal materials of the cat house should be easy to clean and disinfect to prevent bacterial growth. Removable mats, carpets, etc. can be selected for regular cleaning.
Structural design: The structural design of the cat house should be easy to clean and maintain. For example, a removable top or side can be designed to facilitate cleaning of dust and hair inside the cat house.
V. Personalization and aesthetics
Color matching: The color matching of the cat house should be coordinated with the home environment, or bright colors can be selected according to the cat's preferences. At the same time, you can choose a color similar to the cat's fur color to increase the cat's sense of belonging.
Decorative elements: You can add some cute decorative elements to the cat house, such as leaves, flowers, etc., to increase the natural atmosphere and fun. At the same time, you can also hang photos or illustrations of cats to add a breath of life.
